  Try to install 4 ' important'updates on Windows Vista and get error codes: 80070641, who has had a lot of answers posted but none does not seem to work and I tried to install this upgrade for the last 6 months! (I did one where you made sure something is running in the Control Panel, but it works just not - I HATE Vista!)

  Now just got a new error code: 6 to 8.

  The updates, I can't update (!) are:

  2. Update of security for MSOffice 2007 System
  3. Update for MS 2007 Office system

• My system (Vista 32-bit SP2) tried to install update KB980248 for several weeks, but I keep getting error code 80073712.

  My system (Vista 32-bit SP2) tried to install update KB980248 for several weeks, but I keep getting error code 80073712.  I tried to follow the directions on the site by running the system preparation tool update... did not work.  Then I tried to go back to a restore point and try the update again.  Yet once, didn't. I went back several restore points, but it has always failed.  I don't have an installation DVD, because it came with Vista preloaded.

  6. run the upgrade to windows 7.

  Error code 0 x 80070005 usually indicates that you don't have enough privileges or the operation is blocked. I know, some programs (Boot Camp on a Mac PC, etc.) is not compatible with Windows 7, if you have installed these programs on the computer, you may not be able to perform the upgrade.  You should uninstall these programs before upgrading. In addition, such a question may be related to UAC, I recommend you turn off UAC in Windows Vista, if you have installed security software, try uninstalling the security application as well.

  BTW, for your references, I found similar questions:

• Delete all the files/folders of old install once the last series on the window updates have been installed?

  I have everything, if records of installation/uninstallation and newspapers since I installed XP.

  I'm sure that the last set of Windows updates work.

  Is there a problem with the removal of old files/flies and connects using CCleaner?

  If not all, can I at least remove those older files that the SP2 install date?

  What problems can I hire after cleaned?

  I guess that the answer to MS Office updates also apply.

  Thank you

  If your PC behaves properly, you can remove the hidden Windows hotfix backup files that start with $NTUninstallKB to the WINDOWS folder. There are two ways to do:

  A. manually, but copy files on a CD/DVD first to enable their restoration has a fix must be removed thereafter. Now delete the folder \WINDOWS, but leaves the orphan entries to add / remove programs intact. Remove only the $NTUninstallKB files that relate to corrections, not those for applications such as Word, WMP, etc.. In addition, DO NOT DELETE THE folder$ $hf_mig.

  B. my preference goes to run a script that also removes the corresponding entries in Add / Remove programs. Once they are deleted by the script, they cannot be restored. Download, extract and run this little scripthttp://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_hotfix_backup.htm creating a system restore point first just in case something goes wrong when the update of the register.
