error code 646 assigned to 7 updates from microsoft who fail to install again and again?
have tried to install updates 7 x more than 3 and always comes back as having failed with the error code 646. I restarted computer and now do not know what is wrong or what to do
If they are Office updates then seek for them here by putting in the number Ko and then search and download manually and install updates.

Hi Tom,
Microsoft has released a "Fix it" solution that should automatically solve your problems with Windows Update. Click on the link below and follow the instructions.
How to reset the Windows Update components?
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058
If it does not then solve the best suggestion for now would be to try to install the updates manually from the link below.
http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/GP/downloadover/en-AU#TAB0
If you know the updates that must be installed, you can manually enter the KB update in the search bar the link to download the update manually.
If this leaves you too unhappy then made me know Service packs installed for Vista on the computer.

It was a common problem.
Windows 7 - if that always creates a problem, then try to disable User Account Control first download before the update manually. See: (Guided Help: settings to adjust user account control in Windows 7):

Windows Update error Code 646 on Office 2007 update KB976321
Got a 646 on KB976321
What now?
Sorry, you have problems getting your patches installed. I have a number of things for you to look at. First of all, your Background Intelligent Transfer Services set to Automaticand started and Windows Update ? You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.
Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually. You can download and run the patch directly from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=160ad53e-6475-4550-90c2-444e4abea730.
If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner. Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or can clear the virus that can prevent the installation of the patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and then Quick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.

Error: Code 646 after several attempts installation 5 Microsoft Office updates.
I am running Windows Vista (32-bit) Home Premium Edition Service Pack 2 on a Dell Inspiron 530 s PC.
Specific updates I have experienced the problem are:
Update of security for Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (KB973475) 4.9 MBUpdate of security for Microsoft Office Word 2003 (KB973443) 5.6 MB
Update for Microsoft Office 2003 (KB978551) 466 KB
Update for the filter of junk mail to Outlook 2003 (KB977840) 3.4 MBI had my computer in "safe" mode during the installation. I tried disabling my firewall temporarily, then I tried with all the protections that are temporarily off.
* I really don't understand the reasoning for me required updates for Microsoft Office 2003 and related features... I have not installed it in my computer, nor use any product of Outlook. I guess maybe it's to cover items that can be received by e-mail perhaps as an attachment. ??

I receive windows update error code 646 on two important updates for windows 7.
I tried to update manually, nothing helps. My windows update icon remains with the same updates, and he tells me that updates could not be installed. Help, please. the updates in question are 981433 KB and KB 981715. I don't know what to do. Need help. Thanks for any help.
As manually downloading and trying to install updates did not get the expected result, so I suggest that you consider now reinstall/repair Office 2007.
You will need your product key and the original installation media to repair/reinstall Office 2007.
On the other hand if you just did a manual scan for updates and didn't actually download them yourself from the Download Center and try to install it even, you will find them here:
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/results.aspx?FREETEXT=KB981715&displaylang=en&sType=s_basic
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/results.aspx?FREETEXT=KB981433&displaylang=en&sType=s_basic
By downloading and installing manually, we actually manually download the updates to a location on your hard drive where you can find and then manually install the updates.

I get messages that there are updates for HP and Microsoft 10 available... they're trying to download, even if no progress is saved, and the update history shows several failures in the installation. It suggests problems of connection or configuration problems. However, my internet connection works fine.
Hi @FloridaJack,
I'd be happy to help you if necessary because there are many models of HP laptops, I would need the model number.
How can I find my model number or product number?You can try to use the Windows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows 10. Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!
Here is a document that shows how update the drivers that do not work correctly with Windows 10.
