• Windows can't check for updates 80244019 error code.

  I have a problem, the system is vista home basic. Windows can't check for updates 80244019 error code. I have read many of the forms and ran from bugs that I found from microsoft. Further investigation indicates the RPC and DCOM service Launcher are grayed out and cannot be started or stoped.   Registry settings look good for the RPC service.  The DCOM service depends on RPC service.  In the GUI at the same time say they are started but from the comand prompt, I run the command net start and neither one is registered as running.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

• Windows can't check for updates, update history lists all updates but updates installed tells me that I have no updates installed.

  Hi, I use Win Vista Ultimate 32-bit sp1.  I have KIS2009, A Squared Anti Malware, MalwareBytes Anti Malware installed.  All showing my system is clean.  I ran MSRT analysis to light, and he pointed out that my system is clean also.

  The problem
  When I connect, I get a balloon in the notification area telling me that "windows cannot check for updates.  Opening of update of Windows and do it to check a windows update updates it just go and research without results.  It justs keep checking, but I get no error.  Lists history of update Windows Defender updates the last today, 06/09/09.  All updates prior to this are Windows Defender until 28/04/09.  At this time I have installed 15 updates, including some Office updates.  Click on installed updates and finally I said that there is no update at all?:

  What I tried
  I disabled my firewall and tried again.  No luck :(

  Tried a point files, but apparently I don't have?  I should have, but there is none there.  Install Win7 RC on a different partition, would this have wiped my restore points? I remember Vista made this for XP, but assumed that this would have been resolved with Win7.

  I tried to install Win Vista sp2 but unfortunately, I installed the Russian language (don't know why I, I was annoyed a day) but the sp2 download in five languages and Russian is not one of them :(

  So I tried to do a search on it.  Came across various inscription mention deletion of registry keys.  Only problem is that I have not mentioned keys.  Some keys were supposed to be in the components of HKLM, sorry can't remember the others.

  Find this site, I tried the FIX tool, reset Windows Update.  He ran not aggressive and he made the restoration, request for permission to UAC thingy, then the progress bar moves to the right and nothing else happens.  Restarted exciting tried and the same thing happens.  Been sitting there for more than two hours and no results.

  I checked services.msc.  I have BITS began, was automatic but have updated the manual according to the instructions contained in the ' automatic updates can be turned off "at the top of the forum.  Update of Windows, The Windows event log and Software Licensing Service are all set to automatic, and running.

  Any notice received with gratitude.

  Martin,
  Thanks for your help so far.  I hope you don't mind but today how that spending (hard day @ work) I think I'll leave the installation of repair until tomorrow.  More that likely the disc would have burst in the player, causing a sort of spike power was so my motherboard.  So I think I'll just relax tonight and I hope tomorrow is a day better.  Hope you have a good.

  See you soon

• Windows can't check for updates

  I have windows vista and it cannot check the updates.  I got an error 8007007A code.  I searched online, nothing helps.  Help!

  ·         I have Bajmaj,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forums
  Doing some research I found this:
  "0x8007007a: the data area passed to a system call is too small."

  CAUSE
  This problem occurs because the buffer that stores the account information for all scheduled tasks is limited. the buffer puts a limit on the number of jobs that you can plan with user credentials. There is no limit on the number of jobs that you can create without user credentials.
  RESOLUTION
  To work around this problem, stop and start the Task Scheduler service, wait 10 to 15 minutes and then to schedule tasks. »

  Click on start, type bar, the serviceand select the services since the research gives search icon.
  find Task Scheduler service right click top and select stop, wait 15 seconds, then right-click again and start to it.
  Then try to update again.
  Do you have service pack 1 SP1?

  Please post back and let us know if this information was useful or if you are still needing help.

• I get "Windows can't check for updates" everytime I try I get a "an error occurred" why I can't get this to work?

  I can't get updates at all. I did have one in 2 weeks because the automatic update can not pass for some reason any... Does anyone have this problem before?

  CharlesPyle,

  Suggest that you first spread malware as the cause of the problem by following these steps:

  (1) have your system scanned by the antivirus/security suite installed.
  (2) run this tool from Kaspersky: how to remove malware belonging to the family Rootkit.Win32.TDSS http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?qid=208280684>

  If no malware has been detected, there's a Fixit on this page which will reset the Windows Update components:

  How to reset Windows Update http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058components >

  Suggest you download and Save it. Then, close all the open programs and web browsers.
  Run Microsoft Fixit50202.msi and choose its default mode.

• Windows can't check for updates, error 80070409. How can I fix it

  What should I do?

  Quote your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.

  What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

  A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

• If I install Windows Vista Home Premium to my Windows XP is it go faster?

  Hi, I want to know if I install Windows Vista Home Premium on my Windows XP Home Edition it will go faster? Now, Windows XP is very slow and my son wants to play online games and he can't because the computer will have to slow down. So I was wondering if I install the Windows Vista disc I had, this will make faster? and the computer I have an adapter to receive Web, couldn't that make it slow to? Please answer.

  It depends on the specifications of the system... XP might be infected with something, if its slow. You have it scanned with an AV program or something? Vista needs a bit more ram than XP. So, if there is not enough ram in the system, Vista can be just as slow (or slower) than XP. If the conversation of youre cable is an ethenet cable, you need it. Or you will not get on the internet

• Where can I download Windows Vista Home Premium to reinstall Windows

  Download Windows

  I recently formatted my hard drive and I'm now trying to reinstall Windows. However, because I was never provided with a recovery disc I can not install windows, and because my warranty has expired, MESH (against the company I bought my PC) won't give me a copy of Windows. Now, I'm trying to find out how I can download Windows Vista Home Premium so I can install it by using the product key on the COA sticker that I have on my PC.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm sorry but there is no free and legal Vista download

  and Microsft does even not sell Vista more

  If you can't borrow a DVD of Vista from Microsoft and the computer manufacturer will not help you we don't have any other tips to offer you

  Hi S RAGAN,

  I suggest to perform the clean boot on your computer and check.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

  To perform a clean boot on a computer, follow these steps.

  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  7. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  Please follow the system in the boot environment. If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to an application or a service, we have disabled. You can use the MSCONFIG tool again to reactivate the disabled one by one element to find the culprit.

  If your issue is resolved, follow the how to determine what is causing the problem section in KB article to narrow down the exact source.

  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796 . In addition, see the section on how to restore your computer to a Normal startup mode.

  If the same problem persists then, reset the Windows Update components and check.

  To reset the Windows Update components visit the link below and click on solve this button / follow the given steps to repair it yourself.

• After a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium, how long will it take to run updates and it will take a lot of bandwidth?

  updates after clean install of Vista Home premium

  I plan on upgrading the hard drive on my laptop two year old, which will require a clean install of Vista Home Edition full.  I live in a remote with the satellite internet service.  I would like to know in advance what will happen after the installation with the updates of the program.  I will ask you to install them? It would take a lot of bandwidth?

  Hi EllenCB,

  Welcome to Windows Vista community responses.

  Once you make a clean installation on your hard drive is erased. Now, when you install the operating system return updates that have been deleted will be delivered by Windows update to install on your computer. To save time and bandwidth, you can directly install Service pack 1 and Service pack 2 for Vista which would contain more updates. Of course when you run Windows update and when you try to download from the internet, your download speed will decrease. It is best to keep your system up to date which will allow your version of Windows to run better.

  Before installing the update, run the checksur tool, this tool is running an ad hoc analysis of inconsistencies that might prevent future maintenance operations. Download the tool from the link below.

• Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 - multiple windows program or service failures after Windows Update June 17, 2011

  I have Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 (I think that SP1 anyway). Last night June 17, 2011, update of Windows installed an update or updates. Now, Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer, Windows Installer, Windows Sidebar, Panel, Windows Update and other Microsoft programs all fail. I get messages with various error codes. A message is 'class not registered '. I tried a restore to a previous restore point, but apparently the only restore point is the one made after the update. What can I do here? I know that I can always restore the factory image (Dell), but I'd rather not if I can help it.

  Hi doc,

  Method 1:

  You can try to repair aStartup if it is included in the system recovery options provided by the manufacturer of the computer or start from the disc for Installation of Windows Vista.

  Startup Repair: frequently asked questions

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

  Method 2:

  Alternatively, you can try to start a disk check and check.

  You can view the following link to perform a disk check:

  Check your hard drive for errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there are chances of losing data if you can take a backup of important data before you run checkdisk.

  Hope this information is useful.
