  Assuming that the Windows Firewall is enabled, see if a reset fixes the behavior:

  1. open IE 32-bit (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run it in DEFAULT and modes difficulty then AGGRESSIVE. [1]

  2. restart & test.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  [1] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates.

• Windows Vista SP2 - Standalone vs Windows Update

  Here's a quick question I hope is easy to answer:

  I still have to install Service Pack 2 on my Vista machine for various reasons that are not related. Anyway, now I can't, so my question is whether it is better to install from Windows Update tool or use the standalone package.

  I already downloaded it as a standalone package in an emergency, but I remember in the past some operating systems (XP, I think and Windows 95) usually installed a better set of updates when you download as a standalone rather than Windows Update.

  What are the views of the professionals?

  In general, I would recommend Windows Update.  This isn't to the dark days of the prerequisites on the web Windows Update and Windows XP. :-)

  There will be less to download because it will not need to download any original launch here.  It's just going to take what you need.  If you have already downloaded but just use it instead.  No point in wasting bandwidth. :-)

• Error 6 B 7 Windows has encountered an unknown error when you try to install the Office Live update 1.5 on the House system top of range of Vista SP2 64 bit with Office 2007 is installed.

  On a m950y of HP with AMD Phenom Quad Core processor 2.4 GHz, 8 GB of RAM, lots of available hard disk space, accepted the software license agreement. Can you tell me what's happening, if this should be fixed, and how it can be fixed?

  Mike-

  UH! After posting the added information in my last post, I have acted on an intuition, uninstalled, Office Live 1.5 from the Control Panel, rebooted, reinstalled and everything went well.

  So I guess there's a glitch somewhere where Windows Live Update thought I needed the upgrade while in fact I have not, and he is involved in a problem that cannot be resolved.

  Thank you for your help.

• Using Windows Vista SP2 (32 bit), failed to install IIS

  Using Windows Vista SP2 (32 bit), cannot install IIS.  Tried several of the resolutions found on the web to turn (uninstall .net 3.0) to uninstall WAS.  Still nothing works.  Look at the event log, it appears that the TrustedInstaller.exe is in a loop that indicates that Windows Servicing began a process of change state KBxxxxx package installed to installed.  I have this day to the next release and we found thousands of entries repeated over and over as it in the event Log.

  I would say the TrustedInstaller.exe has been hacked or corrupted, but daily MS patches are applied without error.   I also ran the SFC/scannow command without success.  I tried to restart, don't turn off unnecessary services, execution of installation in Mode safe... go!
  I'm surprised there isn't a utility which will ensure the components that need to exist in the version required for IIS, well... does not exist!
  Any ideas?  I need to get the IIS services are installed for the development of a website of ASP.NET ASAP!

  I have only a limited understanding of IIS and ASP.net.

  1. What are they? IIS 5, 6, 7.0?
  2. make sure that your version of Vista can support.
  Go to programs and features > column to the left, turn Windows has on or off > scrolling Internet Information Service > expand (+) sign and make sure if its level of compatibility under Web management tools. Home Premium can go as far as IIS6. > Make sure check marks are on the elements you need to install IIS.

  3. from what I understand, the version of Vista Ultimate and superior is required to install IIS 7.

  This is as far as I know.

  To install IIS 7, here is a tutorial:
  http://learn.IIS.NET/page.aspx/28/installing-IIS-7-on-Windows-Vista-and-Windows-7/

  Your question needed IT expertise. I suggest that transfer you to one of these support ASP.NET forums.

• Cannot install Vista SP2 (or any other update) even after the KB947821 application

  I tried for months getting my wife's cell phone to install SP2 and other updates of security, but they keep failing.  Microsoft's response is to use the analysis tool... but it does not work.

  Unlike some others, the tool reports having installed successfully (KB947821v12) but I then try to install SP2 (or other updates from windows update) and I get an error message.

  The system is a Dell inspiron 1525 Dual core * address email is removed from the privacy * and 3 GB RAM under Vista Home Premium, SP1 (32-bit).  System Norton antivirus installed, licensed and fully updated. I've removed almost any other piece of software besides the pilots, office 2007, and Norton, run a registry cleaning tool, defragmented the drive hard, etc.  Still getting the same error.

  Try to install SP2 (KB948465) starting from the .exe downloaded from microsoft (have tried so many times, I couldn't wait to download each time!), gives me the message "Installtion failed", details show the 0x800f081f error code

  Through windows update, I have the following four updates available, I have several times to install these and get the error code 8007371B for all:

  • KB2508272 (Cumulative security update)
  • IE8 - 8007371B (also tried to install IE8 by uploading it directly on the site of ms, as opposed to windows update)
  • KB2079403 (security update)
  • KB956250 (.net 3.5 Sp1 update)
  • KB68930 (Windows PowerShell 2.0)

  Come to be able to install KB890830 today (27/04/2011), but even after installing that others do not work!

  8007371B ERROR_SXS_TRANSACTION_CLOSURE_INCOMPLETE
  One or more required members of the transaction are not present.

  'Something' interferes with operations in Windows\winsxs. This 'thing' is Norton or malware. Have you checked one of the logs generated by the update system (or CheckSUR) tool when he was executed?
  They are located in and named it.

  Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log
  Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log

  It looks like you will need to either Configure the system to boot or uninstall Norton, then run is the removal tool, in order to resolve the error, 8007371 B, elrao.

  At the moment, it may be too late to solve the inconsistencies that are produce in winsxs. Your other options are-

  (1) contact Microsoft for assistance in obtaining the security updates installed (KB2508272 or KB2079403). However, KB2078403 was published last summer, and should be installed now. This isn't a good sign.

  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.

• Vista & check for box Windows Update doesn't seem to work

  Hello, (Specs: Microcomputer HP/Compaq with Vista Home Premium, SP2)

  The Windows Update control box seems to go nowhere.  Keeps audit and some never... no results.  I run FIX - IT, and he did of bugs.  Then restart and try again CheckUpdates.  Same thing.  And also, the "most recent search for updates" and "updates have been installed" two say '' never. ''  If I seem to have lost everything that was installed or checked in the recent past.

  FIX - IT has deleted the ones?

  I ran also malaware program and the program McAfee (that comes with my subscription to AOL) and clean disk.  Then tried the FIX - IT and re-run check updates.  I have received many downloaded and installed a few of them because so many updates were available at that time.  I'm going to install one or more other, but who has not installed.  Just kept running in mode installation, running and running, nothing happens.  I tried to re-boot, FIX - it again...   So now I'm back on the State 'never '.  Updates Windows to check once more runs from nowhere for the last 4 hours.

  (I even tried before execution with Firewall disabled, just to see what would happen.  I turned back.)

  I noticed that the computer activity light is very minimal (1 flashes every 10 seconds approximately) that check the update is running.  That the light should be blinking a lot?

  I also do not know what to do at this point.  The update service is not running.

  Thank you.

  updated-what precedes has worked once for a small set of downloads. (I had changed and reduced the amount of updates installed to shorten the waiting time for results)  When I went to install several updates, it did not.  I ran the Fix - It again and lost all facilities.  After a few attempts, Fix - It is not helping.

  Then I went through this series (a few ideas from another thread of discussion, rest are mine).

  I cleaned the computer - clean disk, then my regular analysis of McAfee, then tried Malawarebytes program (nothing was found by any program scans, fyi) and then defragment the drive.

  After that, several Windows updates appeared.  I installed Windows, not Microsoft software updates only those related to programming (I think that's what I did.)

  And then install it worked and have stayed.  I'll check for another batch of updates installed as I imagine that there must be more, because I lost all the others who were there before the Fix - It.

  I don't really know what the sequence preceding really helped and enabled the victory. Update service works.  But it's good for now.

  Best of all.

  First of all, thank you for your Service !

  See if this hotfix solves the problem - an update that improves the compatibility of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 with the Advanced Format drives is available
  Be warned, if the following error occurs during the installation of the hotfix, it is the same mistake that the hotfix is intended to correct.

  Setup has encountered an error: 0xc8000247

  That is the same mistake noted in WindowsUpdate.log when updating fails

  FATAL DnldMgr: DM:CAgentDownloadManager:CheckAllCallDownloadStates: GetSession failed with 0xc8000247

  If the processor is Intel, you can update the fast Intel storage technology driver to resolve the error.
  Suggest you check the ASUS website to see if they have a newer driver of TSRI.

  The only way that I could finally restart, was safe and then I restored to before I installed SP2.
