Error 8000FFF with KB98266 Vista

This security up to this day will not be installed.  I ran the proposed automatic fix and tried the manual correction without result.  Windows Update keeps telling me I have to install the update, but then it does not install.

Hello

I would suggest trying the following steps and check the status of the issue.

Step 1:

Run the fix it from the following link.

0x80000FFFF error code when you download updates on a computer running Windows Vista by using Windows Update or Microsoft Update.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/946414

Step 2:

Keep the computer in a clean boot.

How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

Note: Please go up to step 7 of the Kb to maintain the computer to a normal startup after you fix the problem

Step 3:

Disable the antivirus software

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Step 4:

Install the update on your computer and check the status of the issue.

You can also try downloading the update manually and installing on your computer.

    Windows Update refuses to check updates and refuses to download updates recommended that getting through the cracks (updates Windows Defender since earlier in 2015). Whenever it comes up with the same error 80070422.

    I always feel light defender of windows that it seems that the default option is. I regularly have antivirus and antispyware scans and they came to own.

    I tried to update manually and I tried Microsoft fix it but the problem persists. I also added http: & https://*.microsoft.com to my reliable internet sites such as suggested by another user. My laptop does not recognize the file from the Windows Update troubleshooting tool, so I've not yet been able to try this. What kind of file (that I'm likely to have already) should I open it with?

    If anyone has any suggestions, they would be welcome. Thank you!

    Original title: I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L305-S5894 with Windows Vista Home Premium installed (32 bit).  Unable to get a backup to a flash drive.

    After back back, very many updates of windows, my computer is full of problems and it is not representative of the restore points far enough back to correct.  I want really to save my data and programs for flash drive (s) and then go for a full recovery of the system (return to factory).  When you try to do the backup on a 4 GB USB key I get an error including 0 x 81000029.  I have seen posted answers to this.  Everything is included to aid Vista disk from the window which was not included when I bought my computer. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    2. on the menu advanced startup options, check if the Startup Repair tool is in the list.
    3. If so, select it and press ENTER.
    4. If not, then you should organize a Vista installation disc.

    Hi Izzy Nagar,

    ·         Exactly when you receive this error message?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         Do you have any extended monitor connected to the computer in the past or at the present time?

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: You can try to reduce the resolution of the screen (lower), then check if the message still appears.

    Check also if the refresh rate of the monitor is set correctly and check the manual of the monitor for assistance.

    Method 2: Use the option ' enable video low resolution (640 × 480) "start, then update your video card driver and check if the problem still persists.

    b. do one of the following:

    ·         If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

    ·         If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

    c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select activate video low resolution (640 × 480) and press ENTER.

    d. connect to your computer with an account of a user who has administrator rights.

    e. If you can see your desktop, there is a problem with your video card. Try to update your video card driver. For more information, see the article:
