• Error code 8E5E0147, impossible to get Windows Update to work

  When I try to download windows updates I get the following error code: "8e5e0147" and none of the updates will be installed. I now like 15 important updates.

  I already searched this forum and other forums of solutions, but none of those I've tried seems to fix the problem. That's what I tried:

  • Disabled Antivirus and firewall software
  • Tried to install updates and
  • Manually install the updates by microsoft download. This give me an error code, just "failed to install".
  • Run a checkdisk, no errors.
  I would be really happy for more information, which will solve this problem for me. It is very annoying. It is the system that I use if that would be any help:

  If anyone can help?

  First try this...

  Download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework repair tool , then visit Windows Update and let it try to reinstall updates. Once it's done, scan again with Windows Update to ensure that they properly installed.

  If this does not fix it try this...

  Uninstall the .NET Framework 1.1.
  Reinstall .NET Framework 1.1
  Download and install. NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1
  Visit Windows Update or Microsoft Update and let it install the rest of the 1.1 updates, including KB2833941
