Reinstall Windows 7 won't find updates

My Packard Bell laptop died so I installed an SSD and reinstalled Windows 7 64-bit edition. No problem installing. No activation problem. Windows Update, updates is not found. I left it for 24 hours - nothing. I tried lots of suggestions. Most has the same KB3172605 example I choose 'open', it downloads then a window titled 'Of stand-alone Windows Update' and 'search for updates on this computer... ". "but it never gets out of this screen even after hours. I also tried KB947821, KB3138612, KB3102810, KB2999226. WUSA in the task handle is always 00% CPU. I was able to update IE 11 manually, but that's all. I spent several days on this. Anyone got any suggestions?

  • Windows 7 won't find updates after installing SP1

    I recently had to wipe my hard drive and reinstall Windows 7 Pro from the CD. The installation went well not spent, no errors, so I started the process to reinstall all updates. This process went so smoothly up to the installation of SP1. Once SP1 has been reinstalled, I tried to search for updates more (knowing full well there should be more since SP1 was released years ago). But the Windows Update 'search' for updates for hours without saying whether or not more updates are available. Usually, it takes a few moments for the Windows Update tool look up and see if it is or not updates available so I'm not sure what's going on here.

    Thinking maybe something when reinstalling Windows 7 had been sloppy, I reformatted and reinstalled Windows 7 new. Same problem; Once SP1 is re-installed Windows Updater tool can't stop 'research' for updates. No code error doesn't pop up, the system works well, but I know there are several updates out there that need to be added.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello DaveRoPA,

    1. updating windows is stuck at 0%?

    2 sometimes software security installed on the computer in conflict with the download and installation of updates on the computer. Try to turn it off

    3  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2509997 <--- try="" and="" download="" this="" update="" for="" windows="" 7.="" this="" might="" help="" if="" none="" of="" these="">

    Difficulty of method 1:

    Press Windows + R. This will get the run dialogue box. Here, type services.msc,

    Now, he brings us to all services installed in Windows. These services are listed in alphabetical order. Scroll down and look for: Windows Update Service. Right-click on it and stop it.

    Now go to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution and remove all of its contents. In fact, this is the folder where the downloaded installation files were stored. But because Windows update sucks, they sort of problem with the partially downloaded update files.

    Return to services again (as mentioned at the beginning) and this time start the Windows Update Service, right-click on it and select start. Try to update Windows again. It should work this time. (You may have to restart your computer if)

    Hi Keith,

    You won't be able to re - install using the discs and the number of series that you used initially, but we have a solution.

    The activation for more server CS2 is no longer in service. For this reason, we did a version of these titles of software available that doesn't require activation. This is for users who already buy the software.  For more details and specific links for the software, please see the following link:

    Activation server stops for Creative Suite 2 and Acrobat 7 product Macromedia

    Instead of your old serial number, use the one shown next to the download link: download Acrobat 7 and CS2 products

    Once the software is installed, it will not be removed under normal circumstances.

    I do not know if your computer is still infected and it is removed or the problem is that you can't 'see' photoshop' but it is always installed.

    to verify this, check the installation directory and check its size on your hard drive.

  • Windows updates won't find updates for Office or any other Microsoft programs I installed and there is no option to enable it in Windows Update settings.

    OK, so I just had to re - install Windows 7 on my laptop due to a disk failure (Windows 7 Home Premium SP1) and hit a brick wall with trying to turn on Microsoft Updates instead of Windows updates.

    I try to click on the link "Learn more" on the bottom of the page to update on the line "Get updates for other products Microsoft." and it opens just a web page with a graphic telling me to open my Start menu and click on Windows updates.

    Catch 22 is that Windows Update has no options for anything other than Windows. He won't find the updates for the office or any of the other Microsoft programs I installed and there is no option to enable it in Windows Update settings.

    Exactly what I am missing, and where has Microsoft moved the activation of Microsoft Updates page too, because when I click on the link need me to http://www.update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/thanks.aspx?ln=en&&thankspage=5 that makes a whole lot of nothing.

    Thank you!

    The real problem is that I don't know on which is my laptop wifi adapter. So I tried the 3 drivers I found here:

    I also installed the HP connection manager, who said that my wireless device is 'disabled in Device Manager.

    I went to the window manager devices, but under "Network adapters" I see only the controller PCI Realtek.

    What should I do? I really need my WiFi adapter to work.

    After you have reinstalled CS5 Design Premium on my laptop, I tried to update.

  • Windows 7 can not find updates

    Recently, I discovered that my machine was not automatically download and install updates since early August.  The laptop is several years old; I bought it new, and it came with Windows 7.  That's what I've tried so far:

    Turn off everything except the MS in MSConfig services.

    Download and run this file: WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab.

    Temporarily disable my antivirus Eset.

    None of them worked.  I'm poking around the Download Center, but could not find a chronological list of updates to download manually.

    Any suggestions?

    see if the disc is there, if that is the case, right click and select format.  Keep the NTFS, make sure that the quick format is checked, and then click format.  It is then shaped and should be visible in my computer.

  • My phone blackBerry smartphones won't find updates.

    I have a Curve 8520, my phone is definitely in the "Supported Devices" list on the 5, I think that this is the case, update.

    I am on O2.

    Here is what happened, me and my friend got the same phone, I got mine a few months before her though. I noticed that my phone was different to my friends. As my texts have a completely white background, and it shows the texts in a folder, the most recent upward. And show them the text as one... Ping Chat conversation? I asked them how they got their phones like that and they say, Oh, "it was just like that." so I go to text settings and mess around with it for a while. Also that the profile of their bbm surveys Viewer is different to mine, too. And I can't understand it.

    Anyway, this friend, his phone was just like mine. Texts of plain with a white background, my bbm. I was with her all the time. When we come back to his own to start the phone upwards and all that jazz, she gets an update when it it plugged into a laptop (she takes office, his brother had previously downloaded) after updating his phone was like our friends. I thought 'Let me try?' and my phone would not be updated. I went home and looked liked in it. The software of my phone is 4.6.1.314 and I'm guessing that's not the most recent. I noticed the 'Advanced Search - Update Wireless' part, I try. And he says "No update available" so I try by going to the "software updates" on the O2 website, same result. I try the software from office once again, same result.

    Are there really no update for my phone, or I do something wrong? .
