Problem with Windows Update on XP system
In my XP system, when I try to perform the update reported by Microsoft Update, computerized, the box that says that it is looking the latest updates runs for a long time and then finally hangs up and should be completed by the Task Manager. I sent several error reports through the little automated error report box but nothing has changed.

Problems with Windows Update after uninstalling SP2 (Vista Home Premium)
Hello, everyone!
Two days ago, I tried to install SP2 through my Windows Update. During the installation and then restart, it stopped on step 3 (0%), ignored and open Windows normally. But, I realized that I had totally lost Aero (I didn't even have the option in the window color and appearance), and also Windows Update constantly gave me the message that I always important updates - SP2 has not installed correctly (I rebooted the computer several times to try to resolve this problem, but everything remained the same: stop on step 3) ", running Windows, and once again the message that I've updated important). I searched in various forums, but could not solve the problem, so I decided to uninstall SP2 via Control Panel. But it doesn't let me do that - whenever I clicked on the button uninstall, it says that the installation is not finished yet. So, I tried the system restore, but whenever I clicked it, an error message (that I didn't understand at all) appeared. So, I went into safe mode and tried the system restore and it worked (Control Panel uninstall option does not in Mode safe either), and everything is back to SP1. But now I have problems with Windows Update - I get the error message 0 x 8007002 (and even 0 x 8007005 several times). I tried everything I could find in the forums (the thing with automated updates service does not because I don't have this option in Services), but nothing works. If anyone has any advice whatsoever, I would be really grateful for that, because I don't know what to do.
For safety, I use NOD32 anti virus, Tall Emu Online Armor and ThreatFire.
Thank you very much!
Hi EvanaZgb,

STEP 1

The problem with Windows update - automatic updates service won't start not (error 126)
original title: the problem with Windows update
Please help me to get Windows Update operational return.
XP Media Center Edition, Version 2002, SP3
Had a problem with "Generic host process for Win32 has encountered a problem and needs to close." Follow-up of the instructions on this link:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931852Seems to have cleared the error message. So far so good.
However, now a Windows Update does not work. Security Center Windows were told to go to control panel > system and use the Automatic Updates tab. But, if I go to control panel > system, the Automatic Updates tab does not appear.
I also went to the control panel > Services. Tried to start the automatic updates service. Received this error message: could not start the service automatic updates on Local computer. Error 126: The specified module could not be found
I already followed several instructions on this subject:
In the thread above, I was following the post on 30 August. According to Option A, I completed step 5 for the uninstallation of McAfee Security. At this time, my network card has stopped working. On the recommendation of the officer, I posted to the Malwarebytes forum. The officer determined Malwarebytes that I don't have a malicious software. I ended up posting on forum McAfee to get my network card works again. Then I reinstalled McAfee and start to run Windows Update.
I started with Option A, step 8 to reset Internet Explorer using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737. The difficulty it has worked very well.
Then Option A, step 9 says reset Windows Update using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058. When I ran the difficulty in default or aggressive mode, I got an error message saying: he cannot start wuauserv. The message asks me to verify that the user has privileges to take this step. Well, I checked through user accounts who am the only one user set up on this PC and I have administrator privileges. Help me please run this difficulty or recommend another way to get Windows Update works again.
[1]... looks like you are saying that my system is so wet that a clean install is the (only?) way to go.
[2] if I do a clean install, not only what I need to reinstall Windows and all my applications, I also have to reinstall the drivers... Etc. ?
[3] I think I have the disks supplied with the PC system. Is it better to use than to use the recovery partitiion?
[4A]... is there a possibility that some of [my data are] infected?
[4] preventing me from simply infect the whole PC again?
A1. Yes, and it was my recommendation in August, too.
A2. Yes.
A3. Only not really well using the restore Partition hidden to make the "destructive recovery" will include all drivers, etc., that have been installed at the factory.
A4a. Yes, a real possibility.
A4b. You run at least three 3 tests on the backup data before restoring one (1) with your installed & updated up-to-date anti-virus application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials) and two 2 with good reputation, free online scans (e.g., ESET;) Bit Defender; Kaspersky; HouseCall; (F - Secure).
If you have saved your data on CD/DVD, the disc scanner. If you have backed up your data to a flash drive, SD card, or another external drive AND KB971029 is installed, analyze the drive.
If you have any questions or need additional help, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system

Problem with Windows Update after the removal of Virus
My operating system is Win Vista 32 bit, had some virus closed my windows updates, have a view of the white page. Checked that my services and win update is in automatic mode has started, so I don't know why my updater gives me a red x saying windows updater is turned off. Any suggestions?

It makes more sense. How to reset the Windows Update components?
Yet, as indicated in The ball , the search results links do not work. I also used several browsers and DuckDuckGo. Maybe it's because the Windows Update Agent was changed some time ago and the article is no longer valid.
EDIT: If the OP is also struggling to access the link I suggest using repair Windows updates available from tweaking.com. I suggest also using the Registry backup of the same author before hand.

Problem with Windows Update after the new installation of Windows 7 Pro the Lenovo ThinkPad X 200
I'm trying to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. The product key is easy to find on the sticker of the ThinkPad. However, the version of Windows is hidden (for example, I can't check that my ThinkPad had originally installed Windows 7 Pro). I was able to install by using a Pro Win 7 SP1 CD ROM I bought for another installation. I used the ThinkPad I was trying to make the new facility on the product key. I was able to activate the Windows 7 Pro using the phone call and my cell phone. I checked the activation! However, I have problems with Windows update. The product key may be a different version of Windows 7. If so, why did it install and activate OK? Y at - it a fix for this problem or I have to buy a new version of Windows 7 Pro? Please note that I have not yet installed all drivers Lenovo ThinkPad as I can't seem to install correctly. Thank you!
Since the issue is updated to Windows, it is not a product number key.
You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode.

I seem to have problems with my windows update. Last week when I checked to see if updates were needed that I was unable to view them because he said that "some settings are managed by your system administrator" who won't let me change the settings and the display of updates. It's my own personal computer so I am the administrator. However, this week update windows begins to function normally because there was an update available and I managed to download it, but a few days later, the windows on the screen update returned to say that "some settings are managed by your system administrator. I did a scan for spyware/adware/virus recently and I had only a low risk of adware that was detected and deleted without modification with windows update. This problem started right after that I got a warranty of software installed by Dell, I don't know if what they did could cause the problem. The system I use is Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Problem with Windows Update!
Hello!
I have been using a computer HP (h8-1320eo) for about 11 months now, and I have a problem now.
When Windows Update wants to install some updates, I let do and she successfully the download, but when he wants to set up updates, it freezes at 12%. First time I have let it run about 45-60 min, then forced to close. This happens every time, I shut down my computer.
Initially, I contacted the Support of Mircosoft, nothing helps, I did some research and I found this discussion on a website (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/517267/sfc-will-not-complete-and-windows-update-gives-a-800...) And that sounds just like what's happening to me! And as I read down, I wasn't the only one, there are others, but they all HP computers.
And that is why I contacted HP now, and sometimes the computer had some problems to open some files / or orders, for example "stop Installation" when I tried to stop Windows Update...
Christian,
I think that using a Restore Point to try and 'go back' is not enough to clear this error.
It seems that there may be a recent problem with an update of Windows: KB2887069
Reference Microsoft Forum: kb2887069 crashes at 12%
You can try the following:
- The system startup and logon
- The Windows Updates Notify value (instead of automatic update)
- Restart and sign (just because cela 'glue change', defines the kernel and make the computer happy)
- Open windows updates
- Look for the updates - which creates a list of the updates
- Highest point and click right update KB2887069
- Select this option to HIDE the update
- Try to install the updates
The same patch / update watch upwards in the list of Windows 8 update - it does not seem to cause problems.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reloading the image: use your most recent picture disc and recharge the system at this point. Depending on when you created the Image, it's more or less painful. It will certainly take your system at this point in time, when everything worked.
If you have never created a System Image, you can learn about it here:
HP PC - creating and using a System Image to restore your computer (Windows 7) - c02053303
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If none of these suggestions work, then the underlying cause of your problem may be another that which has been previously documented.
One thing you can try:
Use the approach suggested above and hide the updates from one or more at a time, try to run the updates between selections.
It is a painful process; It can help discover the question if KB2887069 does not cause any problems.

Good luck!
