The computer has not found something wrong with the internet connection. When I manually go to the Windows Update Web site, I get the same message. How can I solve this problem?

  • Windows 7 - error Code: 80072EFE (cannot install updates)

    I can't get windows updates: using Windows7 & IE8. Last update was right on 18/06/2010 and for some Win7 updates are blocked or I get this error 80072EFE code.  I bought a registry Fixer that said he could solve this problem, but it did not. Troubleshooting in Win7 will not fix the problem. I tried other suggestions of forums, but they do not work, some offer suggestions for Vista. Vista and Win7 are different. I use McAfee Total Protection Service and it automatically uninstalls the Windows Firewall. Even if I disable McAfee error code is displayed. If anyone can help with this? Thank you

    Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Vista firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

  • Get the error code 641, cannot install Windows updates.

    Reluctant to do a reinstall of windows.  I had the same problem, find the same useless information on a cure.  I did a reinstall of windows (Vista) and partially by installing the updates of windows I ran into the same problem again, the windows installer does not.  Even from scratch will get not anywhere, leaving you at least your system as it stands leaves can be used instead of a partially updated with no program system.

    I wonder if Apple has this kind of problem?

    Hello

    I suggest to reset the Windows Update components and check if it helps.

    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  • XP - error Code: 80040154 (cannot install updates)

    All started with Windows Update. It has not been updated. Not automatically, or manually. He repeated:

    The files required to use Microsoft Update are longer registered or installed on your computer. To continue:

    Register or reinstall the files for me now(recommended)
    Let me read it on other measures that may be required to solve the problem

    I chose the recommended option, it showed, it has been downloaded files, then save, then he returned to the foregoing. I left alone.

    Next Windows Defender would not be updated and gave me the error code 80040154, I uninstalled it. Tried to scan the laptop using Windows Live One Care Web Site. From the beginning of the download, it stopped and gave error code 80040154, I installed Windows Security Essentials, when it finished installing he tried to update and gave error Code 80040154. Finally, I timed it trying to update Windows from the update site, check the update log and you guessed it. IT FAILED DUE TO THE ERROR 80040154.

    Recently, I tried to reinstall Windows Live Messenger and I can't connect because of why? WHY? 80040154 ERROR CODE!

    WHAT IS THIS ERROR? HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

    Help, please. I need to update windows so I can update my google video chat, can't use it cause it is says I have to update windows. WHAT IS THIS ERROR?

    80040153 translates into "class not registered".

    I recommend trying to re-register the DLL from Windows Update files by using method 4 in the article below:

    You can also try other methods as well, as they won't hurt but the method that I think will help #4.

  • Error code: 0x800706BE (cannot install KB2446704)

    A security update for .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1 on Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP x 86 (KB2446704) failed to install since last week, due to an error: 0x800706BE. It caused my computer to freeze; the facility itself has weighed for up to 6 hours (!); end the session became impossible so I have to hold the power button to get my computer to cut, otherwise it crashes for hours (see previous page); and whenever I try to install, it remains empty for the second phase, I just then cancel, inevitably causing my computer down for the umpteenth time. For the love of God, someone please help me. I've scoured the forums without success, and I have now spent more time trying to troubleshoot the computer instead of using it to produce a work.

  • Error code: 800 b 0001 (cannot install will want to)

    Hi Please help I tried to solve the problem for a few days now and I'm running out of ideas.

    I can't download windows updates at all because I get error 800 b 0001.  I tried to go bad it and found the solution to download windows update readiness tool.  I downloaded this but trying to install it, I get the message: Setup autonomous windows update encountered an unkown error 0x800b0001 trust provider.  I have no idea why this is happening, probably I should be able to install anyway?

    I also tried a solution I found in the forum who said to open start > run and enter a few commands such as regsvr32 initpki.dll.  There are a number of different commands eneter but this one declaring failed:

    The module 'initpki.dll' failed to load.

    Make sure the binary is stored at the specified location or debug it to check for problems with the binary .dll or individual files to load.

    The specified module could not be found

    Please help with this I'm really stuck and don't know what to do.

    Thank you to all the answers in advance
