Hello, new here, but really need some advice or help...
For some reasonI cannot get to my updates.  Everyway that I try to run my automatic updates for windows I get an instant error with the error Code 80070026.  I am running Vista with service pack 1 and my last successful update was in November.  I do not know there is an update for me who keeps my computer at risk or with this problem.  Advice or assistance on the issue would be greatly appreciated.

  • Need help with Windows Update, error

    Whenever I try to run Windows Update, I get an error Code 80070490.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Claire,
     
    The error you receive occurs if there is corruption in the manifest of component maintenance base.  The only way to fix this is to do a "repair" of Windows Vista installation.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/958044/en-us
    The 'repair' installation (upgrade on-site) will not affect your installed programs or data.  Just make sure that you are already connected to your computer when you start the installation.  Do not boot from the DVD .

    If the installation does not start automatically when you insert the DVD, run setup.exe from your DVD player.

    • When the Setup program starts and the install now screen, click install now .
    • Note When you receive the important Get updates for installation message, click go online .
    • Click upgrade when the which type of installation you want? appears

    Please let us know if this solves the problem for you.

    I'm really becoming disillusioned and anrgy. In the last 5 weeks or so I installed Windows 7 on at least 11 PCs,... and in all cases, bar 1, I am facing the same problem. I use the Start button, windows update to check for updates after a new installation, sometimes in a few seconds, I get the red error message, other times the normal practice of verification of updates begins. Invariably, nothing happens except the window Windows Update appears to 'disappear' or forget it works, so I start it again, wait forever and finally get the Red writes the error message. I tried the windows online and offline "Fixit and the right sequence is repeated continuously." Yesterday morning at 04:00 [if there are 36 hours] I completed a new installation, over the next 24 hours, I have to have rebooted and retried the windows update at least 4 times. I also tried a couple of different ' FixIt. This morning, becoming almost ready to... Yet once, I tried to use the updates. He did what he normally does... the scan, check... check... NOPE! nothing for you. So I tried the specific 'fixit' MicrosoftFixit.wu.LB.7235772074748435.1.1.Run it tooks ages and ages to complete... but once it was over, no changes because no errors not found. Immediately, I opened windows update via the Start button, click on check for updates... and immediately got written red error with updates. [Screenshots have been taken, timestamped in the seconds between them showing the previous references].

    Can someone help me? Why is - this all of a sudden becomes a common problem? Each PC I put back nine have different configurations, my wireless network has no problem with updates from the manufacturer's websites... SO, WHY THIS ISSUE FROM MICROSOFT?
