• New installation of Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit - Windows Update does not work error 80072F8F

  I just bought and installed WIn 7 Home Prem on a new 1 TB drive.  When I try to run Windows Update I get error 80072F8F.  After reviewing several days, I have now tried and failed to get anywhere:

  • Checked the time date and resynch'ed against the internet several times
  • checked that I can access https://partners.microsoft.com
  • downloaded all certificates of a XP machine and a Vista
  • Use regsvr32 to the following dll: softpub Microsoft initpki mssip32
  • reinstallation of Windows 7 with nothing else

  I can't rename the folder "c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" as suggests a position as it is said always used and I can't understand what is using it.

  Please note that the internet works on both IE and Firefox and I have activated Windows 7.

  It's driving me crazy.  How Microsoft may not get its own OS for talking to himself!  Win 7 is fine for now, but it won't take long to get left behind, if I can't run updates.  Can I still use XP I put up as a dual boot.

What else should I do to get beyond error 80072F8F?  Thanks to all those who can help you.

  Hi Lezza,

  I want to just add a comment to Mark's response.

  There is an article that essentially has the same information as the help and Support, but gives information on the registration of the dll.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929458

  To register Softpub.dll, files Wintrust.dll, Initpki.dll and Mssip32.dll following information

• Yet can't overcome problem of update error 80072F8F

  Re the discussion on error 80072F8F on failure to be able to update to Vista.

  I tried all the solutions suggested in this discussion and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929458, including the deactivation of Norton 360 and still the same error message appears.

  I stupidly had invoked the reliability of the update process and discovered that in fact no update occurred since December 10, 2008. My laptop is out of date and I can't do anything about it that Microsoft now prevents manual update, the only update authorized either through this process that now does not work. Someone at - it any other ideas? Thank you.

  123465788,

  First of all, to access a Vista command prompt you can simply type CMD in the search box, no need to create and manage more.

  Secondly, your original post said you that you did all the steps in this KB. http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/929458

  If possible you can double-check that you you did all the steps as he has about 4 methods to fix this problem.

  If you did all these things, I check the time and date in your BIOS and make sure that it is correct or that you do not have a low battery. If all this is correct, you must then contact your OEM, and see if there is a BIOS newer than what you use.

  However, please note. If something goes wrong with the update your BIOS you can render your motherboard not working, so I strongly recommend that you have an agent of the manufacturer of your computer support, and or the motherboard on the phone with you when you do this.

  Thank you
