I can't windows media udate player. I get the 0x8007007e error code when executing the validation program.

I bought this computer new with XP about 5 years ago with no update problems in the past.

What are the causes of error 0x8007007E ?

When you use the Windows Update site, you can find that the service is unable to update your computer and returns a "General error":

0x800a138f

However, the REAL error code we need is in the Windows Update log.

The windows update log is in the following locations:

C:\Windows\Windows Update.log (Win XP only)

Just copy and paste the above in Windows Explorer and the
file will open automatically in Notepad on your computer utility.

Most recent journal entries will be at the bottom. Search for entries of update failed and you will see an error next to him.

Use the following tips to try to fix the 0x80072EE2 error... After each test point to determine if the problem is resolved.

The most likely entry that you will see is:

Error IUENGINE Determining computer configuration (error 0x8007007E: the specified module could not be found.)

This article explains how to fix the 0x8007007E error code...

What is the problem of 0x8007007E?

I don't want to get too technical, but here are the main reasons for this error code is generated:

(a) there are a number of security and bug issues in Microsoft XML (MSXML) version 3.0 - SP3 Analyzer.

(b) the 0x8007007E error can also be caused by missing or corrupted dynamic link library (.) DLL files) - CABINET. DLL and URLMON. DLL.

Here's how to try to solve the problem of 0x8007007E:

(Step 1) - Windows XP only...

There are a lot of applications provided with MSXML 3.0. Uninstalling one of these applications on a Windows XP system could potentially remove the MSXML 3.0 assembly files (msxml3.dll and msxml3r.dll).
We shouldn't have to register only a single file...

To do this:

Click on Start menu and then click the icon for the race.
In the small box that opens, type the three letters: cmd, and then click the OK button.
In the command prompt window that has just opened (a black background and white text), type the following commands, pressing the ENTER key on your keyboard subsequently:

regsvr32 msxml3.dll

Now, type in the word: output and the window will close.
Now restart and try and Microsoft Windows Update again...

If it fails with the error 0x8007007E once again try step 2

(Step 2) - Windows XP only...

Now lets you update your system with the latest Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) version 3.0 SP4

Download here (use the msxml3usa.msi for the English version.)

Notes...

(a) you have to reinstall MSXML 3.0 Service Pack 4 If you upgraded to Windows XP to a computer running one of the operating systems following:

-Windows 98

-Windows ME

-Windows NT 4.0

(b) Windows 2003 Server
comes with version 3.0 - SP4 and if you do not need to install it.

(c) occasionally, Setup may need to restart the computer, but fails to inform the user. So restart your machine just in case. Then try Windows Update again.

(d) to install a localized version (for example English) MSXML 3.0 SP4 on a system different from the previously installed/local (for example the French) version of MSXML 3.0 SP4, follow these steps:

Cancel the existing record of the installation package by running the following command in a command prompt window:

msiexec /x {45534579-B75B-4A42-953B-2EF8E1DEB4F3} /qn

Now, install the new language version of MSXML 3.0 SP4.

If it fails with the error 0x8007007E once again try step 3

(Step 3) - Windows XP only...

Search for missing/corrupted system files...

Windows XP comes with a wonderful tool called System File Checker (SFC) it scans and verifies the versions of all protected system files after you restart your computer... However, it can sometimes miss a problem, so we can run the tool now to replace the CABINET. DLL and URLMON. DLL, if there is a problem with them:

To do this:

Click on Start menu and then click the icon for the race. In the small box that opens, type the three letters: cmd, and then click the OK button. In the command prompt window that has just opened (a black background and white text), type the following command:

SFC/scannow

then click OK

You must be logged on as a member of the Administrators group to run SFC.

You will need your Windows XP CD during this procedure if SFC needs to get an original file. Remember that Windows XP can have multiple instances of a. DLL to the folder and don't forget what version to which program.

Notes...

I was asked if it is possible to have a show of "progress meter" during the execution of SFC... It's the registry hack you need. Please do not go play with your registry if you don't know what you do!

The system key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

Value name: SFCShowProgress

Data type: REG_DWORD (DWORD value)

Value data: (0 = disabled, 1 = on)

IMPORTANT: This article will cure the problem 0x8007007E for many of you. However if it does NOT then I would like to here from you. Alternatively, have you tried something else that worked? Then send me the fix too!

You can also find these useful error codes - for future reference, especially trying to understand error messages in the Windows Update log! (They are given here as a guide for general problems and further research on your part to solve the particular problem you may have.

    Media Center, and then again. Control Panel, programs and features, tour
    Windows feature turn on or off. Uncheck the two programs, restart. Go back and turn them
    both on reboot. This solve your problem? Otherwise, you should try a system

    What burning CDs in Windows Media music system prepares all the files listed.  When the system starts writing the files on the disc it gets through about 4 songs and then goes to finalize the disc and ejects the disc.  The disk does not appear to have anything on it.  Can I do anything locally to solve the problem?

    My system is XP.

    I burned the disc a lot in the past

    There has been no major changes to the system

    The files I am to burn to the disc are previously ripped files on the disk hard, some of them were burned on another drive before.

    I tried to slow down the burn speed, but that did not work.

    Hello

    • You receive an error message when burning CDs?

    To resolve this problem, do one or more of the following and then try again:

    a. Verify that the CD burner is properly connected.

    b. clean the disc and verify that it is not damaged.

    c. try a different brand of blank discs.

    d. If another program is currently burning files on the CD, wait until the burning process is completed.

    e. Quit other programs that may be using the CD burner.

    f. restart Windows Media Player.

  • Windows Media Center is not in the list of all programs - Vista Home Premium

    Hi, I can't find Windows Media Center on my computer - I have Windows Vista Home Premium.

    I try to use my TV on my computer. It has a built-in TV Tuner. But I can't find Media Center.

    I know when I got the computer last year - it came with something to activate the TV - but I have no internet at this point - so nothing could be done. Since then, I've upgraded to Service Pack 2. All the documentation said that Media Center should be there. I've looked everywhere and Media Center does not appear to be more!

    Can you please help - if I don't now how can I access the Media Center.

    Thanks in advance.

    Julie

    Thanks for this, before I saw this, I worked on how to solve this problem.

    First, I downloaded the cumulative update for Windows Media Center-still nothing.

    Then I peeked my Control Panel/Default Programs/Set Program Access and Computer Defaults.

    My settings were now on the custom, and default media player - tick on "Enable access to this program" next to Windows Media Center had been removed! (of course by another media program)-I reticked this box and as if by magic, the program appeared in all programs and was now visible to the rest of the computer. "

    This setting should make it invisible to the rest of the computer - he of course does not use if it is checked.

    (I also found once I ticked the box next to Windows Media Player (who had also disappeared, even if it was marked as a media player by default) - he also appeared in the all programs list- and he had never been there before!) I know because I had to go and insert my link on the desktop to access it.

    All sorted - what a huge relief. Just as it takes.
