I asked the question "I said that Windows update to download all updates, but let me choose when to install them."
I thought that my problem was resolved, but the problem is still ongoing.

The link to my previous question and answers is http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/user/threads?user=Stew1957

PS I have since uninstalled MSE and installed Norton Antivirus 2011

1. my hard drive has been formatted and re loaded from scratch.

2. my opperating sytem is 32 Bit Win 7.

  • How to stop Windows Update to take keyboard focus, when you are asked "do you want to restart now?

    Windows Update often wants to restart the computer after an update.  If you say "not now" (or ignore?), he will later pop up a question "reboot now?" in a bubble of task bar.  INCREDIBLY, it will at that time take keyboard focus of everything that happens and then accept what he gets as a response from the user.  This means that if the user was in the middle of typing something, the following sequence of keys will enter the bubble "you want to restart" instead of some request the user was in the middle of the help.  It's very bad.

    Here is what just happened to me.  I was in the middle of typing a document when the keyboard focus was suddenly taken by the issue of recovery, a fraction of a second later, the following combination of keys, he disappeared - I have no idea what hit it.  Fortunately, I saw the flash and guess what had happened and quickly you press 'save' on my request.  A few seconds later, my application has been closed as the machine restarted.

    I think that the bubble of Windows Update SHOULD NOT STEAL the KEYBOARD FOCUS.  I think it's dangerous and bad design.

    What is the best way to communicate this suggestion to the team of Windows Update?

    Is there a setting to stop Windows Update to do this?  (Stop stealing keyboard focus)

    I use Vista Home Premium

    I'm looking for a Microsoft solution for the specific problem I described, and/or advice on where post for better attention to Microsoft to "design problem".

    None of us are obstruction you. If we knew a way to avoid this problem (problem), we would have mentioned it earlier in this thread.

    You aren't the first person to complain about this and I'm sure you won't be the last. According to Microsoft, you have two options:

    1 use an automatic updates setting other Automatic (for example, download updates but let me choose whether to install them). or...

    2. turn off the automatic updates and get your updates manually (which I don't recommend).

  • I think that Windows Update tries to install an update that I don't need me

    Update of Windows on the computer, I'll put in place says that this important update is available:

    KB2699988 - a security update Cumulative for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows Vista for x 64 systems.

    When I try to install from Windows update I get this error:
    «Some updates have not been installed - failed: 1 update.» Error (s) found: Code 8007371 C - Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
    It then provides a link to "Get help with this error" which takes you to a page of results from help and Support Windows. No listed results mention a C 8007371 error, but one of them is "Resolve problems with installing updates" I click on that one.

    The upper part of advertising Microsoft 'Fix - it' for "automatically diagnose and fix common problems with Windows Update. I have try this. The file runs and I select "detect problems and patch for me (recommended) - with a single click, we detect problems AND apply the patches on this machine" at the end of its run, the program informs me that "Troubleshooting is complete. He listed under 'Problems found', "components Windows Update must be repaired", followed by 'Fix the status - set' and a happy green check mark. For those interested, here are the details of the report:

    Windows Update
    Problems found-
    Windows Update components need to be repaired - fixed
    Fix the Windows Update components - successful
    Checked - questions
    Update Windows by default data locations have changed - verified

    Problems found
    Windows Update components need to be repaired - fixed
    One or more componetes Windows Update is configured incorrectly

    Verified issues
    Update Windows by default data locations have changed - verified
    The location where Windows Update stores data has changed and needs to be repaired

    I then press 'next' and indicate that I do not know if my problem is solved or not among the options "yes/no./i don't know." The window changes, and informs me that insofar as Windows Update will "no problems need attention" with another icon of happy green check mark. A good time to check if the patch can be installed again!

    I try from Windows update - fails with an error C 8007371
    Restart and try again - fails with an error C 8007371

    So, I decide to try to download the file directly from microsoft and bypass the Windows Update mechanism

    Downloaded KB2699988 from Microsoft.
    Tried to install it in the 'normal' windows desktop: come to the last part of the green bar and then I get:
    "Some updates were not installed - the following updates don't have not been installed: security for Windows Update (KB2699988).

    Tried again to install the SafeMode file. Had this error:
    Setup Windows Update Standalone - Setup has encountered an error: 0x8007043c. This service cannot be started in Mode safe.

    Went on the forums and then I tried these challenges listed as possible solutions to this problem:

    1 ran the System File Checker scan according to the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212. He returned a value of "Windows Resource Protection has not found any breach of integrity."
    2. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212 (2nd half of the page) listed by using the System Restore tool to move to another point in time. I have all the old points system, restore, so this isn't an option for me.
    3. clean start up the PC and then ran Windows Update according to the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135: essentially the same as before. However, to stop all services, and then restart the Windows Update service, I tried, once again, to install the stand-alone Installer KB2699988 (file name of this file, for your benefit is .msu Windows6. 0 -KB2699988 - x 64). After the execution of this file, this message will appear: "Setup Windows Update Standalone - the update doesn't not apply to your system" OK is my only option here.

    So now the leaves wondering if this necessary update is really necessary at all. Why Windows Update says that I need this file which is not even for my computer?

  • Blue screen 116 every time that Windows updates

    original title: 116 every time that Windows Update BSOD

    OK, so I'm in a bad mood, so this will be brief. I managed to understand I get BSOD every time I update my graphics driver, and I have no idea what kind of card I because it is a company built PC (never buy Dells) and the owner of this PC (that is to say my father and family) reinstalled Windows compeletly before I could look, so all I have is "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" in the Device Manager. Try to manually update the drivers causing the BSOD once I chose to run windows normally (it runs in safe mode now too, which is of course the pre reinstall improved)

    So I don't really know what to do at this point.

    Hello

    Dell can tell you what the graphics device in the computer is so check with their support, their online
    documentation and drivers and ask in the Dell forums for known issues. Check the model number
    of your computer on the Dell Site for drivers - it should indicate the appropriate driver.

    Dell support
    http://support.Dell.com/

    Dell support drivers - product manual & warranty Info (left side) - and much more
    http://support.Dell.com/support/index.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=DHS

    Dell forums
    http://en.community.Dell.com/forums/
    ========

    The fact that it BlueScreens when you try to update the driver could indicate there is something wrong
    with the video device. Because it has a "Standard VGA adapter' this means that the driver does not load.

    I hope this helps.

    I am running Windows 7 and noticed that Windows updates did not work. The parameters are defined for the update every day. When I went to update manually returned an error WindowsUpdate_80070017.  MSFT site was no help. Any recommendations?

    Since neither updates Jan - 10 have installed, I'm going to hand you Support MS in the hope that they can resolve the problem. See below.

    That being said, is an interpretation of the 80070017 - cyclic redundancy check error "a device attached to the system does not work," which suggests that a hardware problem might be the cause of the error (although I must say that it is a very low possibility in this case).

    Good luck!
