  am under explore 8 and it is updated. Is there any help out there for this? I'll be bald if I can't solve this problem quickly.

  I will try to reinstall the Windows Update Agent Installer.  Here is a link to the Microsoft site that explains how to do this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104.

  Go to the section How to get the last agent to update as it is already installed.  Scroll down to the section on the additional information tab called Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (I checked that it also works under Windows 7).   Choose one that fits your computer (x 86, x 64, Itanium).  Run this update and follow the instructions.  Windows Update will now be reinstalled, but it's a good idea to restart at this point.

  I hope this will solve your problem.

• The Microsoft/Windows Update errors and updates failed.

  I just had to make YET ANOTHER Destructive full restore my win Vista PC, regular and continuous errors and problems caused by who knows what and the fact that the system restore never worked once in 10 years of friggin! My PC tries to run Win' Vista (SP2) and all the new updates that are applied after SP2. I also run Norton Internet Security (fully updated). I would like to re - install Office 2007 again once more, but I'm reluctant to until I get an answer to the following problem, because whenever I have re-installed Office 2007 I get Office update errors as well. I do not yet have enough away with this recovery to even think about re - install "other apps" again. My problem is that a heck of a lot more than several updates that were 'available' over time since I bought this pc (which didn't even have SP1 on it when I bought it new), do not have more than several times. Finally, it seems that these updates failed stop appearing as 'available '. Currently failed updates are: IMPORTANT: KB974468; KB2729449; KB2742595; RECOMMENDED: Windows Live Essentails 2001. OPTIONAL: Bing Office 1.3.1. also failed (the current version is 1.3.3...).

  My concern about all these multiple failed updates is that if these updates ARE important, whereas they should, and at the very least, not failed to install the first time which must be installed with success the next time. There are at least 40 + other these updates on my pc (of all types) who failed the first time, but succeeded (according to Windows Update), the second time. After doing a search and try to install these updates above manually from the Microsoft Download Center, I got a response that these updates "are not" or "are blocked by another condition on my computer. What 'State' is probably I wonder? Makes me think anyone or whatever decide an update IS important for a particular system is wrong either (and the update is NOT important at all) and so it does not yet appear in the list of "update available", or it IS important and there is another unknown or error "NO that does NOT exist. preventing the update to be applied. I say no because maybe this unknown error also cites a number of error that is not found by the completely useless online "windows help and support!

  If an update is NOT or is no LONGER available, then why hell is he always recommended! ??? In all cases, "Windows Live Essentials 2011" settles, and looking for 'help' by selecting "get help with this error" I am taken to the "windows help and support" line (which doesn't help at all). That's because this 'aid' shows only 26 'results' and NONE of them include error numbers (800706... and two instances of 66A) city. ANY help will be VERY much appreciated (epecially on the part of MVP, who have been a great help in the past) cordially Andy Bob :) :) :) :)

  Let's start from the beginning.

  Lets first see what happened with your drive.

  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   

  change c:\bootex.log

   
  What is this file exist with something in it?
   
  The following commands query the event logs.
   
  To start verification by using the name of the source for any version of Windows (because it varies).
   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "Autocheck" or sourcename = 'Winlogon' or sourcename = "WinInit") get format:HForm

   
  To run chkdsk in Windows.
   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "Chkdsk") to / format: HForm

   
  For warnings about disk problems detected during normal operations and automatic repairs by Windows at the time where the problems were discovered.

   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "NTFS" or Sourcename = 'Disc') to / format: HForm

   
  Then to view the created file.
   

  Start "" "% userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html"

   

  Copy and paste it here. Again run the commands again after doing the below.

  Then to test the equipment.

  Standard hardware troubleshooting
   
   
  First to test we can the material. Material defects can appear as many software defects, that's why we need to test the material first...

   

  Follow these steps in order. Defects of memory can cause disk corruption, disk failures can cause corruption of the disk. Damaged disc causes corrupted files (which SFC may be able to fix). If you get a stop error and after return. Do not run chkdsk with faulty memory.

   
  Diagnosis of memory

  If you have not run a diagnosis of memory, please do. Click on Start - Control Panel - choose Classic view in the left pane - choose Administrative Tools - then memory diagnostic tool.

   

  S.M.A.R.T
  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   
  Disk in Windows drives monitor for impending failure. The function is called S.M.A.R.T. It detects an imminent failure, 30% of the time. In a type elevated command prompt (it's a single line)
   
  WMIC PATH MSStorageDriver_FailurePredictStatus /namespace:\\root\wmi get active, predictfailure, reason List

   

  If it is on will be true, otherwise on enable in the BIOS of the computer.

   

  Predict the failure must be False if everything is ok.

   

  In Vista and later if SMART failure predicted Windows prompts the user to run the backup.
   
  Run chkdsk

  In computer all your drives right click and choose Properties, then the Tools tab, and then click check now. Check the TWO boxes and then start. Reset. This will take from one day to the next.
   
  SFC
  Check the alteration of the file by clicking on Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).

  You say that you have had continuous problems. But if you want to jump the gun to fire a bit.

   

  More details about the error

  To decode 0 x 80070002. X 0 means that it is a hexadecimal number, 8 , error, the first 7 means it a windows error and the rest of Eastern 2, the number, the Windows error.

   

  To search for the error message we need to decimal format. Start the Calculator (Start - All Programs - Accessories - calculator) and choose the menu display - scientific, then the menu display - Hex. Enter 2 Menu display - decimal. It will say 2.

   

  Start an command prompt (Start - All Programs - Accessories - command prompt) and type

   

  net helpmsg 2

   

  and it will say

   

  The system cannot find the specified file.

   

  Use Notepad to search for FATAL and and the specific error code (for example, 80070002) in C:\Windows\Windowsupdate.log.

   

  Windows errors (smallish numbers) and COM HRESULT values (in general, but with exceptions, start with an 8 as 0 x 80040154) are defined in WinError.h, except 8007nnnn where you are looking for the error Window number it contains.

   

  As a general rule, Windows errors are less than 65 535 (0xFFFF). Errors from 0 x 80000001 are HResults Component Object Model (COM). Errors from 0 xC0000001 NTStatus results.

   

  NTStatus errors (usually, but not always to start with a C as 0xC0000022) are defined in NTStatus.h.

   

  the .h files are the best source because it includes the symbolic name of the error that can give clues such as the source of the error
  . FormatMessage does not have the symbolic name as the description.

• Impossible to install Windows Vista updates, tried to reinstall so

  This problem started two months ago. Vista does not install updates. Technical support told me to reinstall vista. I made and went on the vista update. Now I'm back to the same scenario. All download updates but do not install it. I'm not ready to re - install vista again because it took a month to re - install all my software.

  * original title - vista will not update even after reinstalling. *

  Hello

  see if that helps to fix:

  How to reset the Windows Update components?

  There is also an automatic 'fix - it' here

• HKOU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.wms\ also wmd\ and wmz\

  When I scanned my computer in safe mode with the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner. Edition of Vista. I had three errors that could not be removed: HKOU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.wms\ also wmd\ and wmz\

  My computer is very slow, but updated for security programs. I ran several scans which show nothing. I have also cleaned cookies, history and cache and ran a spyware.

  If these files do not appear in Autoruns, they are not running on your system and take so no resource performance.  You can also see the Task Manager by pressing CTRL-a: t - DEL and check open applications and open the process to see one of them appear.  If this isn't the case, then it proves once again that they are not taking up all the system resources and slow down your system.  I cannot know what they are, but to be slow down your system, or affect the performance they need to run, and if the foregoing shows that they are not then you're fine.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
