For 646 error code, there are a few things that seem to work for most everyone. The first thing to try is to disable UAC, and then run Windows Update. The second is to download the updates and install them manually.
To install updates manually, go to Downloads from Microsoft and search the KB # which is a failure. Download on your PC, then run it from there.

Necessary fix for "Code 646 Windows Update engaged an unknown error"
'Important' not installing in Windows Update downloads. There is a small shield with a icon! on my sleep button, which indicates that the updates will be installed, but sometimes they will not be installed. Since they are marked important, even if they are in the programs that I never use, do I need to worry? The message reads: "Code 646 Windows Update committed an unknown error" and has a link "help with this error", but still, it does not install.
Someone out there has a fix for this?
Thank you

To check the updates, you must first install an upgrade for windows update. "Your automatic update setting will not change... to install the update will automatically close and reopen. After i 'install', I and infinite "check updates". This has happened 3 times now when I tried to install Windows in a new ssd. I have no idea what to do.

Code800F900 'unknown error in windows update' trying to download windows vista service pack 2
try to download windows vista service pack 2. Last update was on May 21, 2010. For a few weeks or months, the computer can be terribly slow. Often a hard drive rattle sound. For this, I tried anti-spyware, last week I installed and ran AdAware from lavasoft. It found nothing except two small cookies. A few weeks earlier, I had done the same thing using windows Defender. Also nothing. Along with a check disk hard I did not find much either. What end of the lifecycle for this computer, now about 3 years? He was one of the first available vista computers.

Why did you delete your post where you said that Norton application has been installed at some point in the past?
