    I try to install the update of security for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB972581), but if failed and I get the error code Code 57A

    I have install the 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2

    I bet that if you check the size of the file that has been downloaded it will be probably very small, indicating that it was not downloaded correctly.

    I don't think you have another computer at hand, or a friend with a USB key which may be able to download and copy it for you?  Maybe burn it to a CD or something.

    I could download it and save it to my desktop so I am confident that it is not a problem with the link itself or the file is available for download with success.

    I know this isn't a very good suggestion, but the only other option would be to challenge support and see if a technician can take control of your machine and see if they can solve the problem of internet explore.

    Hello

    Here's what I recommend you do:

    1. disable UAC (do this if you are using Vista or Windows 7, otherwise, go to step # 2). Comes down

    restrictions - turn it off completely.
    2 restart your computer for the change to take effect.
    3 re - download the update of security for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB982331) from the link below:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7f89a734-cda4-4abb-9a10-f6dfe560e8d0&displaylang=en
    4. install. It should work fine.
    5. If it still does not work, try to open all or part of your MS Office applications (such as MS Word, MS Excel, etc.).
    6. follow steps 3-4.
    7. If it still does not work, follow step # 3 again. After you download it, try unplugging your computer from

    Internet (unplug the internet cable or turn off the modem). Then, try to install the downloaded file

    (KB982331). It should work this time.

    Do the same for all the updates that come with KB982331, IF ANY.
    Let me know your results.

    Hi Jay Cee.

    1 - is the only update that's been prompt to download it again?

    2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    Usually, this would happen if the update is not installed correctly even after trying it manually from the installation of the update.

    I suggest that you completely remove this update and then download and install it manually and check.

    (a) open the installed updates by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click programs, and then, under programs and features, click view installed updates.

    (b) click the KB982331 update to remove, and then click Uninstall. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    Method 2

    After you have uninstalled successfully update now download manual and install using the link below.

  • Windows Update, error: 80070641, Security Update for Microsoft Office system 2007: 2289158 KB

    I had some trouble installing the above update (security for 2007 Microsoft Office system update: KB 2289158). When the update fails, the error I get says:

    Code 80070641 Windows update encountered an unknown error

    When I click on the link below the error that says "get help with this error, a Windows Help and Support window opens with this in the search box:

    "WindowsUpdate_80070641" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"

    I did some research and it seems that this error indicates a problem with the installer, but I tried several proposed fixes and none of them work.  Defective patches include:

    -modification of the parameters of service by Windows install to start automatically and then start it manually, and then try to update

    -With the help of the (Administrator) command prompt to manually start windows update, and then try to update

    -Use of the (Administrator) command prompt to manually stop the windows update, then try to update

    -With the help of the (Administrator) command prompt manually update windows, then rename the files that have been damaged (sorry, I don't know more than what files), and then try to update

    -Disable UAC, then try to update

    -Use of the Download Center Microsoft to download the specific update and try to install.

    What's weird, is that it is the only update with the problem, I can and have installed every update that was shown to me.  Recently manually, I started Setup of windows with the command prompt, then run the update. Later, I tried to stop the service and restart, but the service was already stopped. It seems that the installation of windows service is stopped during the update.

    I'm running a Windows Vista x 86 machine.

    Any help will be appreciated.
