How can I change the locations of Windows Update to the default settings of Windows?

Windows backup does not complete successfully, and I get the message "the system cannot find the specified file (0 x 80070002). Windows error procedures have not found the answer.  Solving the problems of files MS Fixit found that where Windows Update stores data has changed and that it should be repaired by changing places of WU to the default settings of Windows.  Please can someone explain how to do this?

Hi Derek,.

Thanks to join Microsoft Community where you will find all necessary information about the Windows operating systems.

You cannot perform backup and get error the system cannot find the specified file (0 x 80070002).

The problem may occur if there is some disk errors hard or due to the interruption by third-party programs.

What fixit have you tried?

To check if the problem is due to hard drive errors or due to the interruption by third-party programs, I suggest you follow the steps:

After each step, if the problem persists, go to the other.

Method 1: Check the hard disk for errors

 

See the site:

Check your hard drive for errors

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-Vista/check-your-hard-disk-for-errors

 

Note:  When checking a disk for errors, if bad sectors si des secteurs defectueux sont are found then the system tries to repair sector. All data may be lost. So make a backup of the data.

 

Method 2: Clean boot

 

When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.

See the mentioned site:

How to perform a clean boot for a problem in Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 3 of section to set your computer to normal startup.

Note: If in case, you are connected via a connection wireless, and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check wireless see corresponding section are checked (enabled).

 

I hope this helps. If the problem persists, or if you have problems of Windows in the future, let us know and we would be happy to help you.

  • How can I change the default topics listed in Windows Explorer?

    When I look at the files in Windows Explorer there are positions that I find little use for me. I would like to change the default headings listed to display only those that I use most often as update, size, Type and Date of creation.

This will show you how reset the display settings of Windows Explorer folder (which is what I think you want), disable Automatic folder Type discoveryand increase the view of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget not the display, model of file type settings, the size or the position of a window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

    I posted a style rule to shrink the tiles, which allows several of them on the page, but naturally reduces their legibility. You can experiment with the dimensions to find a look that works for you.

    I use the Stylish extension to experiment because of its preview function that allows me to see the effect quickly. You can install it from the site of modules, then after restart of Firefox while searching for his "S" icon in the toolbar to manage Styles so you can edit and experiment.
