    place. updates for my Vista and everytime I try to update, it said I have 37 updates that I've updated took place and I get error code 80070641 641 and Ican can't figure out how to fix. I ran a number of times.  Thank you

    Hello domgolf,

    Windows Update exception code 0 x 00000641 / 0 x 80070641 usually indicates a problem with the Windows Installer service.

    Sometimes it's because of a difficulty to access; Sometimes, that means he is absent or inactive (disabled) for a reason any.

    If you have used Iolo System Mechanic or any other registry cleaner for automatic crossings (auto-fix) and these exception codes, the cause is an overagressive difficulty of this app.

    First proposal is to cancel these final corrections by S M, then make sure it is not set to autorun or Auto setting.
    Do NOT continue to use System Mechanic until there is a permanent fix of Iolo.

    Contact Iolo (iolo.com) support

    and request a permanent solution.

    System Mechanic "cleaning the registry" has put a double whammy on your system in having abducted two registry keys.

    The following will set things in order for the registry {at least for service setup}, so that you can then move on to redo the update of Windows.

    These are for VISTA systems<>

    Download this file from Ramesh S http://www.winhelponline.com/fileasso/regfix_vista.zip

    Save it to your DESKTOP.

    Extract the contents to your DESKTOP.

    Click Start, type

    REGEDIT and press ENTER key

    from the main menu, select file

    then Select IMPORT

    Access the dialog box (click the icon on the DESKTOP on the left to select)

    type regfix_vista.reg in the file name text box and click on the Open button.

    Once the merger is completed, you will see a confirmation message.

    Click OK when finished.

    Then download this second registry-fix

    Download and SAVE on your system (on the desktop or in a single folder) following the registry-fix file
    http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/win-services/Vista/msiserver.reg

    Right click on the msiserver.reg file and select MERGE

    When to get confirmation message on the merge, click the OK button.

    If you are prompted by User Account Control UAC, allow to go forward.

    If and only if the Merge option is not available, and then double-click the file and allow it to merge into the registry.

    IF and file '.reg' appears in REGEDIT, when you are prompted whether to merge answer Yes.

    When finished with two registry patches, leave / close REGEDIT.

    then the costs of closing of session and restart Windows.

    Now try Windows Update again in a new race.

    Only a custom scan.

    Simply select the critical or important updates. (non - select all those in option).

    Let me know if it helps. and if so, please click the Green YES (useful) icon to the left.

  • I can't install Windows Update. Error code 641

    Hello!  I hope I'm posting in the right place.

    I tried several times to install updates and nothing has worked.  The said tool fix fixed it and maybe he did because a few updates have been installed, but many were not.   I'm not very technical, but I'll try to explain in as much detail as possible.

    I am running Vista Home Basic. It has Service Pack 2. The Type system is PC based X 86.

    Get error codes on some 641 and 80070020 on others. As I said I'm not technical and maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but I think that the computer is missing some critical files. For example, sometimes he said: the installer of Windows are not available. I don't know if I need that updates however. Finally, I tried the fix and he said: it has been fixed. I managed to install as 1 update, but most of them failed or if windows update said it was successful, when I restart updates have been configured wrong, so he returned changes. I disabled avast anti-virus & system guard (mechanic system) because I thought he could block and which seemed a little help I got an update installed.

    I continue to look for solutions and try new things. I tried to download the Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable. I think that windows6. 0-KB942288-v2-x 86.msu is the one that I want, but it continues to tell me that it does not apply to the computer. Choose one bad? It's Vista and x 86 (said information system). I've tried every solution I could find in the forums, but nothing works. I think something must be reinstalled, but I don't know what. If someone can tell me what to do?

    1. If you have backups of ALL the changes that System Mechanic and RegCure Pro have ALREADY made to your computer, restore EACH of them, restart & test.

    If no joy...

    2 system Mechanic is probably your troublemaker & you have lots of company! [1]

    See my colleague Maurice RESPONSE message in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/d6fedf33-dc1b-451f-9aab-97429f916180

    If still no joy, contact System Mechanic (iolo.com) supported for assistance - and they are well aware of the problem posed their candidacy.

    TIP: If you think that more never your registry database needs to be cleaned, repaired, boosted, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, magnified, "swept" or optimized (and even more to convince that it is not), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.
