KB3034344 Windows update fails to install, update is broken and cannot be fixed

I am running Windows 8 on a machine that has been upgraded to Windows 7 (and initially Windows Vista).

My current problem is that updated that kb3034344 fails to be installed. When I run the troubleshooter for update, he finds 2 questions and correct, but the same items are found whenever I run a convenience store. I downloaded the latest update problems resolution, and after running it then windows update also mistakes trying to find new updates (a 8024, 000). I was able to fix this before, but it always comes back to this specific update, do not install. I ran through several steps: any attempt manual repair windows update, reboot with all the services of the disabled package (clean boot), sfc, ongoing execution and one or two other thing I don't remember. I'd be happy to do a fresh install of windows, but I don't think I can do that with my Windows 8 upgrade disc, which may also be damaged and the cause of my problems. I don't have any running antivirus software.

Any suggestions on what to do next? I can't install the update to Windows 8.1 due to failure of the update pending, and I think that is required to qualify for an upgrade to Windows 10 when possible.

Fixed!... I am running Windows 8 on a machine that has been upgraded to Windows 7 (and initially Windows Vista).

Assuming Win8 64-bit...

  • Windows 7 complete edition; Windows Update does not work, cannot install SP1 failed to install Security Essentials, ect...

    I have a laptop Alienware M17x R2 that was running Windows 7 Ultimate SP1. Recently, the hard drive crashed. I replaced the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system using my recovery disks.
    Loading Windows 7 Ultimate without SP1 recovery disks. I find that I can not get Windows Update in order to run - it says that "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running." You may have to restart your computer. »
    I rebooted the computer several times, without success. When I go into Services, the Windows Update Service is running and the value "automatic (delayed start). Remote procedure call is also started. The Background Intelligent Transfer Service is currently not started and is set to "Manual".

    I ran Fixit of Windows Update and Windows Update diagnosis, without result. The diagnosis of WU came up with two questions: "registration for the Service is missing or corrupt - fixed" and "the recent updates - fixed installation problems.

    I also downloaded the SP1 from the Microsoft Download site and tried to install it. Installation failed with error code "E_UNEXPECTED (0x8000ffff).

    I tried to run the system update readiness tool, but it has also failed with an error "0xc8000247."

    I also tried to download and install Microsoft Security Essentials. Which is also impossible to install with an error code '0x8004FF91 '.

    I did a clean boot, but SP1 still wouldn't install and Windows Update still does not work.

    Then I made a new reinstall of the operating system of the drive Alienware Windows 7 Ultimate original, with essentially the same result. I couldn't update anything. I'm kind of pulling my hair at this point... the machine has worked until the hard drive crashed.

    Anyone has any ideas on where to go from here?

  • I could not install windows update KB2572073, KB251864 and KB2633380

    This afternoon, I received an automatic update from Microsoft. KB2572073, KB2518864 and KB2633880 updates. I downloaded updates, tried to install except that they won't install. The update site says that they have been installed except that they weren't when I checked for the components installed in the control panel. What is going on? I'm about to turn off the automatic updates to put an end to this nuisance.

    I got mine to shut up and go away by uninstalling completely all the elements of the .NET Framework from the control panel > Add/Remove Programs, restart, and then manually reinstall .NET Framework of the http://download.Microsoft.com/download/7/0/3/703455ee-A747-4cc8-bd3e-98a615c3aedb/dotNetFx35setup.exe . After the subsequent updates to this, he stop harassing me. After I tried this applet 'Fixit', who said that the location of the saved data was wrong and that it 'fixed', but it does not solve the problem of updates KB2572073, 2518864 & 2633880 not actually installed, although Windows Update has returned a message "full Installation". Given that I have not received any message that the installation has failed, I tried no any fix 822798 Knowledge Base entry.

    Go to Device Manager and see what device is the only one with a yellow or red bang at his side.

    Once you have identified it, install the drivers via CD or download from the web site of the manufacturer.

    If you fail, just remove the device.
