Updates Windows Vista taking ages to check updates

Hello

I have windows vista 64 bit Ultimate edition with Service Pack 2, all updates up to 15/06/2016. I'm on automatic updates. The last verified time of automatic updates of updates 12/07/2016 at 09:43.

When I tried to manually check for updates by clicking on "Check for updates" all I get is a blue status bar goes round and round. I have no error code.  Never, he's basically saying that there are some installed updates.  If I do not receive updates from July 2016 to install.

Please some help with this.

Thank you.

Thanks Volume Z.

  • The window Vista, SP2 'Impossible to check updates' error 800F080D

    I tried all the suggestions on this forum, as well as what I can find online, without a solution.  I use Panda Security, however, I uninstalled it and the problem remains.   I have tried the repair on the original CD, ran Fixit and a number of other solutions.  I just reformat the drive and start over, but don't have my original CD for MS Office and cannot afford to lose.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Windows Vista Business

    SP2

    As I tried to reset the software update I lost the history of updates are on this machine.  The last update 01/02/2013.  So this should give an idea where is the operating system.

    I ran sfc/scannow as stated in my previous post and found a file, he could not set:

    2013-03-03 11:26:35, 000001fd CSI Info [SR] could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520 {260}, l:46 {23}] '------? \C:\Windows\System32"\[l:22{11}]"Autochk.exe '; source file in the store is also corrupted

    As the job file and the source are corrupt, where can I get a version uncorrupted "autochk.exe" and how do I go about replacing it?

  • installation problem of alpha Centauri on windows vista

    I'm unable to install alpha Centauri on vista

    I run the installer, but nothing happens

    Hello
    Do you have an error message when you try to install?
     
    There is currently no information about compatibility with Windows Vista to alpha centauri. It may or may not be compatible with Windows Vista. Clickhere to check.
    However, you can follow the steps and check:
    Step 1:
    You can try to right click on the file setup.exe and "run as Administrator".
    Step 2:
    If worked well in Windows XP, I suggest that you run alpha centauri in Windows compatibility mode .
     
    If it still does not work, I would say that you contact the manufacturer of the game for a better support.

  • You can download a formatted disk windows xp to a windows vista based count

    We want to buy a guitar tituition disc which requires windows XP or windows 7. The computer is running windows vista.

    Hello AndrewSmith97,

    Windows 7 is based on the Windows Vista kernel - one could say, but Microsoft would disagree, what Windows 7 was a "upgrade to Windows Vista. It may be that, because, in the eyes of many, Windows Vista is an operating system, the developers of teaching guitar drive decided to simply Miss vista off the recommended configuration. If it works on Windows XP and Windows 7, then it should work as well on Windows Vista. Have you checked the system requirements on the Web site? What guitar tuition software is what you want to buy?

    If in doubt you could also send the site software developer support staff.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

    You have compatible installed the drivers for the scanner working properly?

    There don't seem to be compatible drivers available for the scanner to work with windows vista. I suggest you try to install drivers available for windows XP in compatibility mode on Windows Vista and verification.

    http://static.Agfa.com/digicam_scanner_drivers/scanner/snapscan_1212u/index.html

     

    So to work around the problem, try to install the drivers for Windows XP in Windows Vista compatibility mode and check if you are able to solve the problem. Compatibility mode may or may not work depending on the specifications of the device.
    Compatibility mode is used if a program written for an earlier version of Windows does not work properly. Then, you can use the program compatibility Wizard to change the compatibility of the program settings. To manually change the settings of a program, use the individual program's compatibility tab

    You can check the link for assistance on compatibility mode - mentioned below
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If the problem persists while you can contact the manufacturer for assistance without a driver, the device may not work properly. Also, pilots can only be provided by the manufacturer of the device.

    I hope this helps.

  • Cannot access the data of a dvd burned using Windows Vista

    Mr President.

    We burned a dvd using the integrated software disc Vista burning... the procedure was as follows:

    After inserting the disc, we formatted the disk by checking the "Quick Format" option... the format once completed, we pulled the folders n files that are supposed to be stored on the dvd n that the process has begun... After the end of the burn, the dvd is ejected automatically... but the dvd is not readable on other laptops or desktops... well helping... data are very IMP... We have no other backup data... and we have formatted the old laptop and upgraded to Windows 7...

    Forward to your response

    Kind regards

    Hitesh Baku

    How does the combustion process end - did you finish it or simply eject a DVD?  If you have completed it, exactly, that you have to finish?  What type of backup has been made (or did you use just copy/paste instead of the grogram backup) and what version of Vista are you using?  Did you use the live file format or the image ISO format http://www.ehow.com/how_5013668_copy-cd-dvd-windows-vista.html?  What kind of CD or DVD (CD, CD - R, CD + r, CD - RW, DVD, DVD - R,...)?

    Insert the DVD into the drive and go into Windows Explorer and right-click on it and select explore.  Any files or folders appear?  Go to start / Control Panel / folder opt / view on the and make sure that the button to view the hidden files is checked.  Also check the box to show system files and uncheck to hide extensions of known file types (this can be useful later).  Nothing now watch or it always seems to be empty.

    Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / disk management and check on the DVD in the car and tell me what it says on the size and the amount of available space (in other words, think data on the DVD).  Closer to your mouse on the DVD player and a text box appears above it lists criteria to this stationary player down.  Please post what he says EXACTLY, in the same order, as it is presented.  Does show as active for example?

    Here are the instructions on how to copy data from a hard drive to a CD.  Read carefully.  You skip steps or fail to wait until the processes were completed before moving on to the next step?  If we know what hurts you, it may be possible to fix it - but I don't know (because I have no idea, but why it happened). http://www.ehow.com/how_5013668_copy-cd-dvd-windows-vista.html.  Also, check out the following article, especially the section about closing or to finalize the process and see if you have done this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Disc-burning-frequently-asked-questions.

    Here is another article on how to burn a CD/DVD in Vista to test to see if you followed the procedures as indicated or anything left side: http://maximumpcguides.com/windows-vista/burn-a-cd-or-dvd-in-windows-vista/.

    I believe that you have finished the session before it was finalized and it's the cause of your problem (assuming that Disk manager shows ALL the data on the dik at all - in which case I am afraid that the information was not stored on the CD/DVD and are not recoveralble, because there is nothing there to recover).  If the development is the issue, there may still be a way to finalize the disc - although I'll have to research further on this subject because I don't know how to finalize a disc that has already been ejected before it was finalized (and depends on what probably treat you used).

    ===========================================================================================================================

    Even if you have your drive formatted and installed Windows7, it is still possible to recover some of the data that was stored there using special recovery software.  I don't know if these programs work with Windows7 (it is a forum for Vista) but you can check the details before you download them or go to the Windows7 Compatibility Center to see if they are listed http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/default.aspx.

    The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

    Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

    I hope this helps and I look forward to your reply with the results of the options I suggested, the I asked you to perform checks and questions I asked (and I know there were many, but I'm not here in front of your computer with the disk to try things myself so the only way I'm collecting information that I need help (if possible) is to seek your help for) help me.  Thank you.

    Good luck!

  • Are not in the print spooler service and must not be restarted in Windows Vista

    I can't add an impression because I get an error message "unable to open the Add Printer window. The local print spooler does not work. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine. »

    I ran the "fix it" program, but it does not solve the problem.

    Restarting the computer does not solve the problem. Go to management services does not solve the problem, because the print spooler is not automatically listed to run.

    I was able to print on a staff of 600 Epson printer connect to my Dell computer via USB.

    The next option to solve this problem, what am I looking at? Help, please.

    Thank you.
