Vista - Windows Live Update problem

I have a problem installing the components of Windows Live Essentials.  I managed to install by email.  Now, I try to add a few other components.  I get a window saying: "We must take care of some things first" - "install Windows Platform Update.  I thought I already did.  In any case, I click on the link 'get Windows Platform Update' and am presented with instructions that tell me to go run "Windows Updates" and view the updates available.  Because I am running Windows Vista, he said I should run "Update platform for Windows Vista (KB971644)".  However, there is no update platform listed at all.

What should I do?  If anyone can offer a suggestion, would you also send me an email with your suggestion (s)? E-mail address is removed from the privacy * thank you very much.

  • Does not update VISTA Windows Live Update Code 80240016

    My son computer caught a virus. By running programs to repair, I discovered that its Live Update failed since 24/04/2009. That has worked successfully for 17/11/2007 until 04/24/2009. Nothing has been updated during this period. Windows Defender definitions are out of date and will not be updated and Live Update will not be updated. It's to the point dead on Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and associated family update. I have been through forums and tried many approaches. I have not found this question. Thanks in advance. We are under Vista. The original error code is 80240016.

  • Windows 7 update problem. 0 x 80070057

    Recently, I tried to run updates on my PC and it initially had issues where the download would be stuck on 0% and never download anything, if the download would be 100 MB or a 1 bit is important.

    I ran the update of Windows Diagnostic Toolkit and constantly got an error/problem with code 0 x 80070057 and now since then I can't even check the updates of windows. When I run the windows update tool from the system setting it'll just "load" at all times and don't get any where...

    I am very very frustrated by this issue and would really help if someone else encounter similar issues, or a team em directly since it is a question of bad that I can't even run a check for updates when they are meant to be so important for the safety of my OS...

  • Installing Windows Live Messenger problem (hr:0x8104000d)

    Hello world
    Yesterday I installed my Windows 7 Home Premium OS using the costum install because I wanted to whipe clean my Dell Inspiron 1440 laptop. And everything works so far, except that I can't install Windows Live Messenger.

    I tried to download the installer from explore.live.com essentials, microsoft.com and by using the Windows Update, but it does not install. I looked and tried to run the Windows Live installer about 6 times. And it's always the same thing. About 98% is to install the Windows Live Call, and when it reaches 100%, it cancels.

    I also tried to download the Msn Messenger 7.0 and tries to update the software. For the record, I can't even use the Msn Messenger 7.0 because it says I need to update. And I can't update it because apparently I am not connected to .NET Messenger Service. I tried to test the connection, and it has failed due to an error of invalid character script. After that, I checked the advanced settings and ran tests; My TCP and HTTP Proxy connection works.

    I am currently using Kaspersky Internet Security and I even checked to see if the firewall was blocking it, but the installation of Windows Live is considered a trusted software. I even tried to disable my firewall to see if it makes a difference. No luck so far.

    The error that says:
    Check that you are connected to the Internet. You cannot download Windows Live programs unless you are connected to the Internet. HR:0x8104000d

    I honestly do not understand. I am currently connected through a LAN network with an ethernet cable, but I also tried to unplug and connect to the internet via the WAN.

    The only cause of this problem that comes to mind, it is that I had to uninstall the Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility utility before I could uninstall Windows 7. But I have already run all Windows updates. Not that it makes all the difference because I was already connected to the internet.

    Any ideas on how to fix it?

    UH well Windows Vista OS came with my laptop and I have improved with the installation of costum (new installation) to set up my Windows 7 operating system. If everything has been wiped clean. Obviously for this reason that I don't have windows live messenger installed. If I had simply updated the operating system, all my files are remained intact. My Windows 7 operating system is 64-bit, and yes it is compatible with my computer. As I said above, everything else seems to work.

    As for Kaspersky Internet Security, it is supported by Win7 64 bit.
    Reference: http://usa.kaspersky.com/products_services/internet-security.php?icid=50000028

    A Norton Internet Security trial came pre-installed with my laptop, but I removed this month there are using a Norton removal tool. Not that it matters now, since I wiped clean my drive hard when I installed Windows 7.

    And as for the older versions of Windows Live Messenger, I think I mentioned on my first thread I knew that they did not work. Still, trying to update an older version seemed to be a good idea since I kept not install it. However, which also did not work.

    Anyway, thanks for clarifying your first answer. I'll post this same thread on the discussion Forum to see if anyone there can inspire some light in my situation.

  • Tecra M1 & Windows Live Messenger problem

    I recently undated my Windows Live Messenger Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8064.206).

    In a few seconds Messenger being connected in the message "Please tell Microsoft this problem" appeared, i.e. "Windows Live Communications Platform has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. "After you send or do not send error report Messenger closed. It was possible to reproduce every time, and the PC has been restarted. If the error message window was not closed and just moved out of the way Messenger seemed to be working normally.

    I communicated with the help of Windows Live Messenger on the problem, and after sending various system parameters and error logs, they responded: -.

    "This error is triggered because of problems of compatibility between Windows Live Messenger 2009 and your computer (Toshiba) Mobile Extensions.

    To check, try the following:

    1. click on start, run, type taskmgr in the run box and press ENTER or click OK.
    2. in the Windows Task Manager window, click the process tab.
    3. under Image name, locate Tmeejme.exe & Tmeejmd.exe, then click on end process.
    4. click Yes to confirm.
    5. try to connect to Windows Live Messenger.

    You can uninstall the Mobile Extensions but it would be better if you contact Toshiba support for more information on this. »

    The only running two process was Tmeejme.exe, and after the problem has been resolved.

    The version I have installed, as described in Add/Remove Programs, is Toshiba Mobile Extension3 for Windows XP V3.36.00 XP. Anyone know if this problem with the new Messenger been reported before and is at - it a hotfix or an update?

    Integrated

    Hello!

    It's really interesting, but I can offer a solution for you, because I don t have the Tecra M1.

    However, on the Toshiba site I founded a newer version of Toshiba Mobile Extension version 3.84.00.
    But that's why you should look for the Tecra S4.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers
    Notebook-Tecra online-online series S Tecra-Tecra S4-online Extension Mobile online

    I think it should work on your laptop too.

    Try it and give us feedback. I am interested in.

    Good bye

  • How to disable Windows Live updates

    I recently switched from a mac to an Asus laptop. I use a prepaid wireless modem and had barely put credit on it to discover a set of 1 GB used within 2 hours of my PC doing the updates of Windows Live without my knowledge and my credit was gone, so whenever I plug my modem usb to im afraid that my credit will get used because of these updates How do I get rid of them?

    Hi Tedwards78,

    Windows updates are important for your safety and reliability of computers. Microsoft does not recommend disabling updates.

    You can hide some updates which you don't want to install but, disable windows update is not wise.

    These links could be useful.

    Change how Windows installs or notifies you of updates
    Activate the update or disable automatic
