  • Failure to configure the updates on Windows 8

    Whenever I try to update my laptop windows8, it installs the updates, restart, fails to set them up and go back. I have the laptop plugged into the wall and the ethernet cable to ensure that there is no interruption in the diet or by internet. I'm kinda a waste since I can't go to 8.1 without having to install updates 1. I tried to go into the settings of update, but it fails to do so by using this too. What is McAfee? Any help would be welcome.

  • Laptop Toshiba Windows 8 failure to configure the updates... Returning from endless loop

    I bought a new laptop (Toshiba Satellite C55-A5281) with window 8.  Once through the new normal computer set up, I saw that there were 108 updates for Windows 8.  Yes, it's a hundred and eight!  OK, may as well do before loading anything on the new computer, right?

    Hours and hours later... I was always in an infinite loop.  I've been through all this hit F8 once forcing them to close and restart upward... then made the deal of refreshing to try to fix.  Then, I started the whole update process on and got the same thing... Hours later, once again.  I actually let it run all night.  Same ugly loop once again.

    Maybe doing 102 updates at the same time, it is not a good idea.  But I have no idea of those who to try to do first.  Or exactly how just a little at a time.  And if I have to do one at a time, and each takes hours, I can't live that long...

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I knew before Windows 8 would be a challenge... but unfortunately it seems a lot harder than I expected.

    I did the full restore... and then did a full reformat reset it all back at the factory.

    Then I did some updates at once instead of 102 all at once.  It took forever, but seems to work.  Then I got a notice of update to Windows 8.1.  I did that as well (took hours) and everything seems to work now.  I have probably 20 hours of downloading (and wait) and the download time (and waiting) with this.  I hope it's over and I can go on living it normal.

  • Failure to install security update for Windows XP (KB2686509) error code 8007005 0 x.

    I recently enabled Microsoft Update for my XP Media Edition 2004 after his being unavailable for a year due to corruption Trojan. The solution that worked there was rename the CATROOT2 folder and the SofwareDistribution folder in the Windows directory in the Windows > System32 directory and reboot. This solution came from the Microsoft site. After that, I was able to download and install 50 of 51 updates. A fails repeatedly: update for Windows XP (KB2686509) security. I get error code 0 x 8007005. I tried several fixes, including one designated for error 0 x 8007003 (rename file) download at download.old as well as the use of aggressive mode on Microsoft Fixit. Always fails to update. All other updates installed correctly, including a new this morning, but of course update continues offering that failed. Any ideas on how to get this installed? This is a relatively new, so I'm not sure that the problem is that it is already there, but the first failure was around 40 of the 51 when I check the history update file. Thanks for your suggestions.

  • Is no longer able to install windows updates after factory reset (windows service exception / failure set up the updates of windows roll back)

    So suddenly, I wanted to start my 3 month old laptop, but found that it was getting a system service exception.

    After hours of troubleshooting, I decided to go with a clean installed, this has completely fine until I installed the updates of windows (I have to install these updates to return Windows 8.1)

    After you install all the following updates occurs after a reboot:

    -Default configuration of the windows updates, roll back later, I get a system service exception.

    - Or directly a system service exception.

    These problems are solveable by a system restore to a point that has no updates.

    The next thing I could try is install the updates of windows 1 by 1 to see the update is causing this particular problem.

    If anyone has a way to solve this problem please help.

  • Failure of the security update for Windows xp

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    , Then they have all the same numbers but automatic updates. I do not know why they do not?  Is my computer in danger? What someone knows something about it?  Can someone let me know, I would really appreciate it.  Thank you :)

    Lower-right, now, I get an exclamation icon, when I click on it, it lets me know that I have updates to install, it goes through the whole procedure, but he then shows how they all failed.  Just today, I had 18 of them.  They are all updated for Windows XP security they all begin with (KB) other numbers are all different. (KB978601), (KB979683), (KB978338), (KB979309), (KB981332), (KB977816), (KB980232) Microsoft Update.

    I would try reinstalling Windows Update Agent Installer first.  Here is a link to the Microsoft site that explains how to do this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104.   Go to the section how to get the last update agent, as it is already installed.  Scroll down to the section under the information tab, called Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000 Service Pack 4.    Choose the one that fits your computer (x 86, x 64, Itanium).  Run this update and follow the instructions.  Windows Update will now be reinstalled, but it's a good idea to restart at this point.  Check if your updates to install.

    Otherwise, you may need to install manually by following the directions below:

    (1) Download Center to visit Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx
    (2) search for each update code that begins with the letters "KB" and followed by a set of numbers (i.e. KB979309)
    3) click on the link for the download and then click on download and run. You must accept the agreement and then click on continue.
    (4) repeat this process for each download of updates Windows could not install.
    (5) run Microsoft update again, and click Find updates.  If all goes well, it will show that you are completely patched.

    It is always better to stay completely patched, as many of them are security-related.  If the solutions above do not work for you, I recommend that you run a full scan on your computer.

  • Cannot install updates for Windows 7 SP1

    Hello

    I tried for awhile now to switch to Windows 10 without luck ( http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-win_upgrade/windows-7-key-not-recognized/9a66ab9a-819a-4285-9461-64e7528db222?tm=1450545430339&auth=1 ). In the end, I decided to reinstall Windows 7 RTM, install all updates and then upgrade to Windows 10.

    Unfortunately, I seem to be impossible to install updates for Windows 7 now. Everything was going fine until Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 installed. After a few mistakes, WU start looking for updates for hours. I've tried everything as suggested here without a bit of luck. In the end, I decided to leave it to search through the night and finally it does find and download updates about 300.

    Installation of these updates takes about 4 hours and Windows restarted and tried to configure the new updates, restarted saying once again he could not configure the updates of Windows and it will undo the changes. And it's been like that for over an hour.

    So as soon as now I can not even update Windows 7, not to mention the upgrade of Windows 10.  Any ideas? I'm sick of the Windows updates, causing problems.

    Installation sometimes loads of updates at a time can cause problems. When you access the list of the 300 updates Windows updates to odd day again, deselect all of them and then choose the oldest (for example) 50 and see if they install on their own.

    Sometimes do fall off a long list of updates and try to install more small pieces may help them to install.

    Is not sure, but its worth a try as a first shot.

    (I know what you mean though issues of update.) It makes you wonder what's going on sometimes :-()

    If this does not help, is there required failure account error codes?
