Error code 646 when trying to install Windows updates.
Windows updates appear to download but will not be installed. I tried to go into 'control panel '; Security systems &; then Windows updates. It checks and concludes that they are downloaded and try to install but won't. My computer is set to automatically download and install, so I'm never checked to see if they really were the installation so far. It seems the latest installations of updates took place the 1/11 & 12/01/11. There has been many failures last year. Right now, it seems that there are 6 updates important and 6 optional updates that will not be installed.
I tried to disable my Norton Internet Security and then the installation, but that does not work either.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

I have a Compaq Presario SR5410F computer with a large screen Hp w2207h with windows home premium and service pack 2. The computer is about 1 year and 3 months. About 6 months ago, I have an update of windows for my monitor and it failed several times when I tried to install it. I got ahold of someone at microsoft but never got an answer to my problem. The person finally told me to hide the update so it wouldn't keep trying to install. Now I have another update to my monitor and it will not be installed. All other updates installed fine. When I try to install, I get failed and the 80070005 error code.
Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem? Sure would appreciate it.The post directly above it, the journal of Kateyes, has the following questions:
1 looks like there is a proxy or some sort of 'intermediary' between the Windows Update software and internet. Usually, it is a kind of dial-up, or download accelerator software or maybe internet software such as content filtering (parental control). If you have any of these please disable and try again.
2. you may have a proxy configured incorrectly. Open Internet Explorer and click on Tools / Internet Options / Connections / LAN Settings button. Here, uncheck the "Use a Proxy Server" if it is checked. Otherwise, uncheck the box for "Automatically detect proxy settings" and close IE and try again.
3. the problem could be another connectivity type of questions, please try the suggestions in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/836941 - make this one article first, very good on this type of error
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80072efdI hope this helps. The question is purely related connectivity, so something related to the internet connection does not work correctly. It probably isn't and issue with your ISP, but more with the settings of Windows or other applications installed on your computer that are at the origin of the conflict.

Windows Update failed to install KB 2092924 for Microsoft Works 9 and invites me to insert the disc of Microsoft Works 9, and then click OK. Microsoft Works 9 was preinstalled on my Dell computer and I do not have a disk. I believe that there is a missing file but have no idea as to how to proceed.
Hi Lilobodo,
The question you have posted is related to the installation of updates for Microsoft works 9 that is preinstalled on your computer and would be best suited to the Microsoft Works community. Please visit the link below to find a community that will provide the support you want.
