Error 80246008 when downloading from Windows update

Original title: I get Windows Update error 80246008 and can not download updates.  Microsoft fix - it identified the problem, but did not solve.   Windows Vista Home premium.

I use a dell inspiron age of 4 years.  Have had problems with Windows Update several times lately.    Microsoft Fix It has been able to solve it once (only after executing it 3 times), but not until today.  Don't know what to do.

Hi Joy,

If you receive the Windows Update 80246008 error when downloading updates, you might need to change the (BITS) Background Intelligent Transfer Service or the Windows event log service settings and restart each service.

    Do you have other accounts of users on this PC?  If you install this update from the main account?

    You should get the number of the update of the updated history list and then download the file here: Microsoft downloads.
    If sure that nothing else is running, and then install the update manually.  Give it a try and let us know the results.

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium - 32-bit. I get the error code 80070643 when you use Windows update - it fails on the Office Live add-in 1.5. I uninstalled .net Framework and reinstalled. Office Source Engine turned on, started work. Any ideas how I can fix it. I am running Office 2010 beta as well.

  • Error 80072EFE when you run Windows Update on Win7 so wireless

    You try to run Windows update on a new laptop from Toshiba with Windows 7 installed and a good wireless connection to a router I get error 80072EFE rather than a list of updates. If I connect directly to the router the updated list comes through fine. I can then unplug the router and download updates more wireless.

    Initially I was running tried to reinstall as 32-bit, 64-bit Win7, but made no difference. Tried to update after I just installed Win7 before Norton and other applications on. Contacted Belkin and they gave me a checklist of the router to do, but not better. Someone at - it ideas? The problem is reproducible even with Norton and other installed applications. If you connect the router updates Windows detects the updates to install. If you work with wireless it gets error 80072EFE.

    Phil

    If I connect directly to the router the updated list comes through fine.

    Until you get your wireless connection problems straightened, run your manually check updates when you are connected to the router.

    I can't imagine how MICROSOFT is allowing us to download this tool which is probably a bug or another infection, but the way we think that we are Microsoft download is not Microsoft.

    MICROSOFT SOFTWARE ENGINEERS, you can call me to remedy this situation and go to the heart of this new problem. Of course sounds like a chineese bug. Who has heard of a device called YOOSTAR CAMERA?

    1 disconnect Internet completely until told to reconnect
    2. go to the device, imaging devices Manager, select the Sonix Webcam device and choose to uninstall the driver, without forgetting to select [] delete the driver for this device
    3. restart the system and allow it to install the Microsoft Inbox driver
    4. go to control panel, Classic view, Windows Update and change the setting/configuration, Opt to download only the updates, but do NOT install, let me decide
