    3. wonder to reboot the machine (which I do)
    4. in step 3 of the process, he confgures the downloaded software
    5. said that something was wrong with the configuration of the software... no error code.  just something went wrong.
    6 restores the system to the point of departure.
    7 restart the system

    This is getting frustrating... my system has very well updated with each produced Vista fix.  is there a way to bypass this update or can I get windows update in order to stop telling me that this update is available?

    below are more details about this fix...

  • I get a repeated error on install Platform Update For Windows Vista (KB971644). Fails with the error code 80073AA2. Installation comes from Windows Update.

    Windows Update loops round and round constantly to not set up correctly, then restores the changes

    Do I need to install the System Update Readiness Tool KB 947821?

    Probably not: I had a lot of doubt that SP2 is installed if KB947821 has not already been installed.

    Given that this problem is after a fairly recent install of SP2...

    Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, initially planned to end on November 26, 2009, has been postponed until February 26, 2010, so move on! Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location. Some questions may require that more support for which he is advanced a charge.  Go to http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 & select appropriate category (i.e., download problem;) Installation problem; Problems after installing a service pack <=pick this=""> ).

    In the case opposite & whereas KB971644 is NOT a security update, you can simply hide the "thing":

    1. stop the automatic updates service:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
    Double-click automatic updates > click stop
    (Stopping the service will take a moment)

    2 remove the contents of the download folder:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
    (type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
    Open the download folder and delete its content
    Close the window.

    3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update |  View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right click on the (platform) update for Windows Vista (KB971644) | Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.

    4. start the automatic updates service:

    Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
    Double-click automatic updates > click Start
    (Stopping the service will take a moment)

    =====================================
    To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.

    NB: If KB971644 were available for download/installation manual (and is not), I would have you try it.

  • Update for Windows Vista KB980248: 80070017__ error Code

    I tried to install the update for Windows Vista KB980248 but receive the error Code:80070017

    "There was a similar issue, published with the proposed solution, being (1)" run the Chkdsk.exe too check the drive for errors"and 2" rename the download folder.  The two were not successful.

    I also tried a number of different methods as suggested by MS technical support (see below), but none succeeded, so I hope someone else has also encountered this problem and has a solution.

    The steps I've already done: clean boot. downloaded and installed the update manually; high my privileges as a user profile; Services activated window important; disabled user account control; Run the component tool to reset Windows Update in default; Not Windows Installer and then re-recorded Windows Installer; use the System File Checker. installed the updated system preparation tools.

    Any help appreciated

    After reading the process to carry out a repair for Vista installation, I was not confident I could do given my lack of COMPUTER skills and feared that I would have done something wrong.  But while browsing the site there are other suggestions that I adopted. For example, I downloaded Registry Booster, ran the System File Checker (which I had already done but thought, no harm to do again), and other suggestions are in response to similar questions like mine.  I also ran an another Chk Dsk (I also run this previously).  To restart, as he was driving through the verification process, he said,' windows replaced bad cluster in file name \window\winsxs\x8A9C8~1.226\ 8915cambria.ttc'.  And I was happy, because it was the file you advised has been damaged.  I don't know exactly how it happed, as I said, I had perfomred chk dsk a numer of times before.  I was successfully able to install the update for Window Vista KB980248!  I was so happy after all the anxiety.

    Thank you very much Andrew, for your time, assistance and patience. Very much appreciated.

  • Update for Windows Vista (KB2505189), updated platform for Windows Vista (KB2117917) Supplement - french and a security update Cumulative for the ActiveX for Windows Vista (KB2508272) stop bits

    I have update for Windows Vista (KB2505189), platform update Supplement for Windows Vista (KB2117917) - french and Cumulative security update for ActiveX Killbits for Windows Vista (KB2508272). These updates get the 8007371B error code. I have Windows Vista 32-bit. I searched the Microsoft catalog available and tried a manual installation for these updates, but they have always failed. I have not yet tried to install it in safe mode. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?

    8007371B ERROR_SXS_TRANSACTION_CLOSURE_INCOMPLETE
    One or more required members of the transaction are not present.

    Only the specific return code can be solved by running system, aka CheckSUR update readiness tool -.

    Description of the preparation tool system update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2

    CheckSUR for taken over all the versions of basic x 86 (32 bit) Windows Vista

    When you are prompted to save CheckSUR, choose to not run it.
    When the download is complete, close all open programs and browsers.

    If the installed antivirus is Firewall Norton/McAfee party or a 3rd is used, then suggest you first boot system configuration before you run it.

    NOTE: In the clean boot state will be disabled all firewalls of part 3. Ensure that the native Vista firewall is now enabled - enable Windows Firewall on or off

    Now run CheckSUR (. Windows6 0-KB947821-v12-x 86.msu).
    Restart the system for the same configuration of boot clean and do a check for updates in Windows Update in Control Panel.
    If the system can search, detect, download, and install updates now, save an update of a subsequent test.

    If the system can or cannot now, cancel the clean boot configuration and restart in normal Windows mode.
    See if the registered update installs now.

    If the system still cannot install the updates, please copy and paste the contents of one of the newspapers that CheckSUR created when he ran. They are located in and are named

    Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log
    Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log

    If the system can install the updates in the clean boot configuration, but not in normal mode of Windows, then there are 3rd party software which is the origin of the update installation problem.
