• Error 646, Vista update of definition for microsoft office 2010

  I just loaded MS Office 2010 on my HP Pavilion 1720n, O - S Vista. I always get "error 646" via Windows update when you try to load the below 3 updates. Is there a reason why this is happening? Vista/MS Office 2010 is incompatible in some areas? If need be, I'll just hide updates.

  Try to download and install manually by download on your desktop and install them one by one. Insert the number of KB to get updates on the right and choose the one corresponding to your version of Vista:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx.  If the error persists, temporariliy disable UAChttp://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/ and your security software and try again and see if that helps.  If this isn't the case, re-enable the programs before you continue.

  Subsequently, in a Microsoft forum, I followed the directions to add the registry information in the book below (I copied & pasted the below for Notebook, "recorded under" register.bat on my desktop, then right click on it on my desk & "run as Administrator" and then tried to install, but it did not work):

  Hi Rocketron,

  Sometimes patches seem to just have a hard time to proceed with the installation.  I have a fw for to look you at other things.  First of all, your Background Intelligent Transfer Services set to Automaticand started and Windows Update ? You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.

  Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually.

  (1) Download Center to visit Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx.
  (2) search for each update code that begins with the letters "KB" and followed by a set of numbers (i.e. KB979309).
  3) click on the link for the download and then click on download and run.  You must accept the agreement and then click on continue.
  (4) repeat this process for each download of updates Windows could not install.
  (5) to rerun the update from Microsoft, click find updates.  If all goes well, it will show that you are completely patched.

  If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or erase viruses can prevent the installation of patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and then Quick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.

  Good luck

  Get the 8007000D error code when trying to install update KB978886, running on a Dell with Windows Vista Home Premium service pack 2 computer.  Before a further rejection with the error 646 (I think) which was fixed with a fix - it had found online.  Hopefully a simple solution lie, not a technical person, thank you.

  0x8007000D ERROR_INVALID_DATA

  Suggestion: 8007000D - Error_invalid_data.  Corruption in the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.  Rename the folder % windir%/Softwaredistribution.

  FYI

  How do I rename the folder of distribution of software (Vista)

  1. stop the Windows Update service (make sure that you are logged on as administrator)

  Start button | Control Panel | System and Maintenance | Administration tools
  Double-click on Services
  (Provide the administrator password or a confirmation if prompted to do so.)
  Right-click the Windows Update service and click on stop.

  2. Click Start, type %windir%\System32 in the search box and press ENTER.

  Find and rename the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.

  3. start the Windows Update service

  Start button | Control Panel | System and Maintenance | Administration tools
  Double-click on Services
  (Provide the administrator password or a confirmation if prompted to do so.)
  Right-click the Windows Update service and click Start.

  Important: Restart the computer, and then run Windows Update again.

  Rename the software distribution folder will erase your history on the Windows Update Site. Whenever you want to check what updates are installed, you can: -.
  Start button | Control Panel | Programs
  Under programs and features - click View installed updates.

• Error - 646, while trying to install KB977304.

  Any attempt KB977304 installation. Install fails error 646, been round on Help FAQ sites and this is the second time that I have followed the links on this forum. Tried deleting download malicious malware it freezes also. Don't know what a manual download, but followed this link too and entered in the update #.  It will start and get to a point and everything freezes. This is also linked to an Itunes installation failure. I did all of their suggestions, until checking my windows settings, which is what brings me here. Thought it might be something to that day. BTW KB977304 was not install for a while now.
  

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  But now, to start the installation, I get the error message 'No Win32 Application valid'

  There is a good chance that you see the effects of a hijackware infection!

  NB: If you had no installed anti-virus application or subscription has expired * when the machine was first infected * and/or your subscription has expired since and/or the machine is not kept fully corrected in Windows Update, don't waste your time with any of the following: Format & reinstall Windows.  A repair install won't help!

  1. see if you can download/run the MSRT tool manually: http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx

  NB: Run the FULL scan, not analysis FAST!  You may need to download the MSRT on an uninfected machine and then transfer the MRT. EXE to the infected machine and rename it to SCAN. EXE before running it.

  2B. Vista or Win7-online this scanner instead: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm

  3. now post the logs required in a forum appropriate for support by an expert in the field. DON'T SKIP THIS STEP!

  I can recommend the assistance of experts available in these forums: http://spywarehammer.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?board=10.0, http://www.spywarewarrior.com/viewforum.php?f=5, http://www.dslreports.com/forum/cleanup, http://www.bluetack.co.uk/forums/index.phpand http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30

  If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.
