Update to Windows 7 RTM failing - error 80070652 - cannot install new software or run Windows Update successfully.

I upgraded from Win 7 RC for Win 7 RTM on my 64-bit machine from Dell and started installing all my software.  Everything was fine until I started Windows Update and had a list of 15 updates that needed to be done.  Several have had agreements that I had to accept, he wasn't the normal process of "update in the background.  I had to leave and is concerned to let the process of continuous updating on its own and potentially hang, so I cancelled it.

Since then, I can't install any software or to upgrade my system.  Updates fail with the error message "WindowsUpdate_80070652" which seems to be undefined.  In some cases, I get an error message another installation is running and the current installation or update cannot be performed until the end of the current installation.

I restarted my dozens of machine time and then immediately began installing or upgrading windows - without success.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  It seems that there is a dead plant that does not block updates and installs.

It is not an error "undefined":

    After an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7, everything on the system seemed to work properly. up to what I tried to re - install everything deleted software or install new software.  As soon as Windows Installer starts the following error message appears: "error 1325 - 'Documents' is not a valid short file name.

    If this could have something to do with the new pads MSFT security permissions on folders (with padlock) during a upgrade as well as related hidden junctions by compared to the user by the system?

    I tried to install the update system of Lenovo and MSFT Windows Installer Clean Up clean in the hope that the software would help alleviate my problems. See below the link on advice from MSFT on the same error.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/%2Fkb%2F328162

    Unfortunately, I cannot even load the previously recommended THAT MSFT software to solve this error.  I also tried to install the software as 'Run as Administrator' and in 'Safe Mode '.  Even if I could not load the software recommended to MSFT, I was able to install iTunes to Apple through Apple Software Update, I guess, that they do not use Windows Installer.

    With the new structure of junction there is several files or links to the same folder across file system, if it is a folder authorization number which specific files/links are I need to remove restrictions?

    Any help would be appreciated, if not I'll have to do a clean install and individually reinstall each piece of software... Thank you.

    I think I found the solution for this point, because I have just encountered the same problem in our environment and here's what I did to solve it:

    -Create a higher level permissions at the root of the folder redirection (for example \\servername\mydocredirfolder): grant the Group authenticated users the following permissions and apply it to "this folder only" ALLOW: list folders/read data, reading, reading attributes, read extended attributes, create files / add data

    I think the MSI is trying to read the free space on the disk on the server, but it cannot because it tries to access the folder where your my documents redirection is sitting.

    Good luck!

    A google search of the proposed problem that there is an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.

    Absolutely not. You're misinterpreting things. Activation does not happen when you simply run the installer, although later. This means that what he says - there is another 'install' pending / assets on your system, which means somewhere, there is a process (invisible) always blocking things. Whatever it is, since you have not provided any real technical info, we can not advise specifically. If you are using Windows, you can check your task manager and to terminate any process setup.exe and msiexec.exe more potentially will need to manually fix / remove some registry keys. What beyond this, you will be much more accurate.

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
