• Error code 646: Windows Vista re Office 2007 SP 2 through Windows Update

  I am running Vista Home Premium, SP1, 32-bit.   Office 2007 SP1 is installed.

  I've restored an Office 2007 SP2 hidden (and almost forgotten) update.   Failed twice.  The error code is 646.

  Since the update wouldn't install and just sitting there, looking at me with a big red FAIL on it, I hid it again.   Please let me know if there is a procedure to follow?

  BTW, I ran into the same problems that other posters have recently that some updates installs successfully through Windows Update, others I had to install directly on the Microsoft site.    Once the updates have been installed manually, of course, they were not offered by Windows Update.

  Should I give the Office 2007 SP2 a whirl and try to install directly from the MS Download page, or is there something else I should do/check before this attempt?

  Thanks in advance!

  Download Office SP2 on the download site and try to install manually.

• Cannot back up files on the error code get Windows Vista 0 x 80070002.

  Hello MS Personal Tech.

  For several months now, I couldn't save anything on my Vista 32 - bit OS.
  I constantly get an error message: 0 x 80070002
  whenever I try to backup Windows.
  Obviously an important registry key is missing ("system
  Cannot find the specified file. »)
  Here's the registry key, I need: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsBackup 
  For some reason, this key, which should be there and once that should have been there.

  is no longer.

  I used Malwarebytes, sfc/scannow, and then dskchk. Any report that everything is fine with my PC and the operating system!
  Original title: How can I create a missing key in my registry to save my files?

  HOW CAN I INSERT THE KEY ABOVE IN MY REGISTRY SO THAT I CAN PERFORM A BACKUP?

  Thank you for your attention to this point,

  marlem388

  Dear Fahimulla K,.

  I thank you very much for your very comprehensive answer and links provided.
  I followed through and processed all the steps you offered by the
  any MS links but after several hours of searching different remedies it has proposed, in the gaps.
  All my Image profile within the registry paths are complete; nothing is missing.
  I looked on support.microsoft.com/kb/979281 for suggestions and tried
  to include all the or reflected one of the examples could be the culprit:
  I 'm trying to back up my files to an external drive (Western Digital);
  but this is really nothing new.
  A couple of years, I could
  backup on external Lacie drive - but several months back Windows Vista Home Premium starts to give me this 0 x 80070002 error message (the system cannot find the specified file).
  From the outset, Lacie has been plugged into a USB port without any problem.
  I still don't understand why I do not have this specific file -HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsBackup.
  A site of MS actually admitted that Vista does not contain this special value!
  I even bought "Free" Eusing registry because CNET gives a fine criticism.
  I downloaded this tool but again, after what he done his tasks, I still could not back up my Vista rrecords.
  So now I'll have to just use Easus ToDo backup, which I came
  times before. For some reason, it does not seem difficult to
  do what I expect to win. Vista to do.
  But even once, thank you for your efforts, Mr. Fahimulla K, on behalf of my deranged OS.
  Respectfully,.

• Re: Windows Vista and 7 / error Code in Windows 7 Home Premium

  Just bought my first laptop and trying to connect to the internet via a Modem of GNET DSL via PPPoE. When I try to connect to the internet, I get a error Code 651: the modem (or other connecting device) has reported an error. Any ideas on a fix for this. Weird to get a new system and an error code so early.

  Overview of the system:

  Laptop Toshiba Satellite
  Processor Triple Core AMD Phenom (tm) II N870
  2.30 GHZ
  64 bit OS

  Sent by IPAD

  I'm 100% sure that this error is not caused by your new laptop. I m also 100% sure that all of the ports on your laptop work properly. You can check in the Device Manager. Is there a problem?

  This modem is is not known to me, but, in General, using the LAN cable should not have a problem if your modem is configured properly. With WLAN is the same.

  Have you tested the feature on another network LAN or WLAN (different DSL router)?

  By the way: what model of laptop you have exactly?
