  Previous issues with the installation of the updates or with those who just do not had are released on 11/10, but cannot install KB974234 (published on 10/13).  Update returns the error code 80070641.

  Following further discussions, I have (among other attempts): stopped the Service Windows Installer (returns this message "the Windows Installer service is not started"), tried the Patch Registration Cleanup Tool (wouldn't not - said "a productcode must be determined"), downloaded manually updated.

  Any help would be appreciated!

• Try to update windows error code 80070641 641

  place. updates for my Vista and everytime I try to update, it said I have 37 updates that I've updated took place and I get error code 80070641 641 and Ican can't figure out how to fix. I ran a number of times.  Thank you

  Hello domgolf,

  Windows Update exception code 0 x 00000641 / 0 x 80070641 usually indicates a problem with the Windows Installer service.

  Sometimes it's because of a difficulty to access; Sometimes, that means he is absent or inactive (disabled) for a reason any.

  If you have used Iolo System Mechanic or any other registry cleaner for automatic crossings (auto-fix) and these exception codes, the cause is an overagressive difficulty of this app.

  First proposal is to cancel these final corrections by S M, then make sure it is not set to autorun or Auto setting.
  Do NOT continue to use System Mechanic until there is a permanent fix of Iolo.

  Contact Iolo (iolo.com) support

  and request a permanent solution.

  System Mechanic "cleaning the registry" has put a double whammy on your system in having abducted two registry keys.

  The following will set things in order for the registry {at least for service setup}, so that you can then move on to redo the update of Windows.

  These are for VISTA systems<>

  Download this file from Ramesh S http://www.winhelponline.com/fileasso/regfix_vista.zip

  Save it to your DESKTOP.

  Extract the contents to your DESKTOP.

  Click Start, type

  REGEDIT and press ENTER key

  from the main menu, select file

  then Select IMPORT

  Access the dialog box (click the icon on the DESKTOP on the left to select)

  type regfix_vista.reg in the file name text box and click on the Open button.

  Once the merger is completed, you will see a confirmation message.

  Click OK when finished.

  Then download this second registry-fix

  Download and SAVE on your system (on the desktop or in a single folder) following the registry-fix file
  http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/win-services/Vista/msiserver.reg

  Right click on the msiserver.reg file and select MERGE

  When to get confirmation message on the merge, click the OK button.

  If you are prompted by User Account Control UAC, allow to go forward.

  If and only if the Merge option is not available, and then double-click the file and allow it to merge into the registry.

  IF and file '.reg' appears in REGEDIT, when you are prompted whether to merge answer Yes.

  When finished with two registry patches, leave / close REGEDIT.

  then the costs of closing of session and restart Windows.

  Now try Windows Update again in a new race.

  Only a custom scan.

  Simply select the critical or important updates. (non - select all those in option).

  Let me know if it helps. and if so, please click the Green YES (useful) icon to the left.

  If it solves your problem, please click the green icon to MARK IT on the right.

• HELP error code: 80072efe - cannot download or install security updates or update the definitions of viruses and spyware

  Help, please!

  I am running Vista Home Premium 32 bit on SP2.

  I just had my McAfee security expires and since I was not able to install security updates.

  I uninstalled McAfee and searched my system to make sure that it is completely gone, then I installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

  I was able to update its definitions of once and since I was not able to do so once again - instead, I get the error message "Virus and Spyware definitions update failed" and the code of error 0x80072efe

  I have since run a full scan of the system and the following were found on my system:

  -Trojan Dropper

  -Trojan notifier

  -Trojan Downloader

  -Virus: Win32/Alureon.H

  It is said that they have been removed - I'm not sure if they have something to do with my problems of system...

  Also my windows update still does not go to download security updates, and it still gives me the same error code.

  Is there a way to fix this?

  Thank you very much

  Also, the first update failed installed has been updated for Windows Vista (KB955430)

  The last successful security update was security update for Windows Vista (KB979309)

  The one who follows - update security for Windows Vista (KB978338) failed and there all security updates do not have

  I just had my McAfee security expire... I installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

  You should have uninstalled the McAfee application and download / run the tool to remove McAfee Consumer product and then installed Microsoft Security Essentials before as your McAfee subscription has expired.
