Vista - Error Code: 646 (cannot install the update of Office KB2288613)

Hi, Windows Update advises me to install this hotfix. I have Vista and MS Office 2007. Whenever I try to install KB2288613 error code 646. I tried to install manually; run this FixIt:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2258121 restarted and tried to install. and also disabled UAC, rebooted and tried to install, but without success.

However, if I have MS Office 2007 and not MS Office 2003 I really need this patch and if not, why am I being advised to install it?

The following article:
... has this:

Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

 
Can download, save and try to install manually:

  • Vista - Error Code: 80070645 (cannot install the update KB959209)

    I'm currently under that Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2 installed.

    Windows Update KB959209 was recently downloaded for installation.

    Unfortunately, it does not install and generates Code 80070645.

    I tried to uninstall Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 as recommended on many forums in various ways, but I always get an error trying to reinstall it.  It will uninstall programs and features in the control panel and it does not appear in the Windows Installer Clean Up scroll box.

    Can someone please suggest a solution to actually install KB959209, please?

    Thanks in advance,

    Tom Helget

    KB959209 is an option, not the security update. Feel free to hide it.

    Alternatively, you can try to download/install manually: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=6c095bba-6100-4ec9-9c54-6450b0212565

    MICROSOFT WORKS 9 (KB2092914) AND SECURITY UPDATE 2007 MICROSOFT OFFICE SYSTEM (KB2277947) HAS NO UPDATES ERROR: 646

    Here is an article with a fix for updates, get the error code 646 (mainly Office updates):http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2258121.

    If this does not work, try the Windows Update Agent to:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104/.

    If this does not work, try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

    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.

  • Error code: 80070057 (cannot install the update KB982519)

    Error message when updating a program 'recommended '.  Please... need help.

    Hi Big Fish 2.

    1. are you able to install other updates successfully?

    2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    Download and run the system preparation tool and try to install the update.

    System resources, such as file of data, even in the data memory and registry data, can develop inconsistencies during the lifecycle of the operating system. These contradictions may be caused by various hardware failures or can be caused by software problems. In some cases, these inconsistencies can affect the Windows Service store, and they can cause software updates not do not work.

    Method 2

    Download and install the update manually using the link below and check out them.
