• Microsoft Update will not work

  Microsoft Update will not run through Internet Explorer.

  I seem to encounter two different errors and there seems to be no trend about which error appears where or when or why.

  One is 0x800A138F: the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view.

  I don't remember exactly what it was or said, but it was similar.

  I tried the solutions so far:

  -restart the computer, internet, etc.

  -added the Windows Update and Microsoft Update for Trusted Sites (I did years ago)

  -reset of Trusted Sites as the Internet zone settings

  -connected Microsoft Fix - It here: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/en-us

  -a attempted to run the windowsupdate.diagcab from here: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/windows-update-issues?wa=wsignin1.0

  As with many other users of this forum, I can't run this .diagcab file. Looking at the many messages on this file, no one has yet solved anything. It seems that Microsoft has yet to recognize or acknowledge that they're providing a tool that is unusable. I hope I've provided enough information to lead to a resolution. I also sent a report through the Fix - It tool when it has not changed anything.

  Hello

  Please go to the Microsoft Community Forums.
   
  You did changes to the computer before the show?
   
  I suggest to refer to the links and follow the steps in the articles:
  Error message when you search for updates on the Windows Update site: "0X800A138F: there are no updates available at this time."
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326253
  WARNING: Reset Internet Explorer settings can reset security settings or privacy settings that you have added to the list of Trusted Sites. Reset the Internet Explorer settings can also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the reset Internet Explorer settings.

• Update will not work

  I tried the trial CC CC in Photoshop, then I decided to pay the subscription of photography and have had now with Lightroom for ten days. Whenever I turn on my CC computer tells me that I have updated. These are throughout the full 30 day trial too, and whenever I tried to update it just craps out and tells me that the download failed - EVERY TIME! I'M SICK OF THIS!

  The suggestion of 49 error on Adobe's Web site tells us to turn off antivirus protection and firewall and clear the Temp folder. WHY? How stupid are the programmers of Adobe? Why they can't get this update to work with running antivirus software or my temp folder which had all 72 MB of files it contains? IT STILL DOES NOT WORK!

  I want to be the notice to stop annoying me telling me that there are some updates that do not work or... the update to download properly WITHOUT disable me the anti-virus and firewall!

  HOW CAN I FIX IT?

• I have a Dell Dimension 4500 Windows XP Pro SP 2. I have a new installation disk. Windows Update will not work and Microsoft Update will not work either. What Miss me?

  Pentium 4 CPU

  1 GB of RAM.

  Win XP Pro - SP 2

  Dell Dimension 4500

  If it will not download from this link on your PC, try another and just use a USB key to copy on you and then run it. Once installed SP 3, and then the fun begins because there are about 100 + updates after her.

• Updates will not work on Vista

  I am running Vista Home Premium and I can't run updates. Anytime I they download and install. After the reboot, they go through the Configuration 1, 2 and 3. At the end of 3 it is said complete and the system stops and restarts and goes back through the new installation. Shut up just. I left for hours and keeps it just loops. Any ideas?

  Restore point:

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

  As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

  As your falls into the above category: download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  More information shows what the process that it loads.

  You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista repair disc.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  There is not a disk of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

• Vista Home Premium 64-bit: Side-by-side configuration incorrect, C++ Redistributable is not installed, programs will not install, Windows Update will not work.

  Greetings!  Please read this and thank you in advance for your help.

  A few months ago, I started to receive Windows Update errors, indicating that my Windows platform could not update itself.  Soon after, I started getting errors about C++ Redistributable does not install correctly.  It wasn't a huge problem for a while, and I managed to work around it.  However, my antivirus program is dead, and I'm unable to install a new.  When I try to install programs now, I get the error "side-by-side configuration is incorrect."  I would like to delete the manifest and try to reinstall the application, but I don't know where they are.  At least, it would be a start.  In any case, I am currently without virus protection.  Help!

  So far, I tried to uninstall the Windows updates, but I only managed to install the MS Office updates.  I have even office, although I understand that it is built into the operating system of our days.  I tried many different patches of a lot of different forums and nothing seems to work.  I would like to reinstall the OS, but I bought OEM (from Newegg) and do not have the disc.  I don't even have an easy backup, or even one that I know is 'good'.

  Thanks again for your time and effort.  They are appreciated more than you can imagine.

  Why you didn't say what you did before?

  Borrow a Vista DVD and don't reinstall Option I gave you.

  Or borrow a disc and do a repair installation; It's your call.
