• Windows Server Update service does not work after the installation of KB2720211

  I have a Server 2008 SP1 32-bit Standard, which had the role of Server Update for the Windows software installed connected to a WSUS upstream server and everything worked, with 17 clients connected to him and get everything their approved patches.  It was a new server starting with WSUS added at this time 1 months ago.  He had to be upgraded to SP2 S2008 which I did and WSUS have continued to function.  After being on SP2, there was another 152 patches to be applied and after that WSUS does not work anymore.  It appears 1 patch that has been applied has been KB2720211 that seems to cause problems for a number of people.

  The problem is that the update service does not start.  An error message comes back that the service has not responded in a timely fashion and I can't find the log files anywhere on what it is.  Here is what has been done so far all that in the same issue:

  1 deleted WSUS and restarted and installed it again.

  2 Remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

  2.1 install SQL Management Studio and logged to an internal database SUSDB and checked it is not set to single user (I believe it is set for multiuser name but I'm going from memory)

  3. install the KB2720211.

  4. installation KB2734608

  5 remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

  I am looking for any information on how to solve what is the question, because there is nothing in the log files I can find and no event in the windows event viewer.  I am ready to start with the server however if there is something I can look at to possibly solve the problem, please let me know.

  First, check with the WLAN service is started and set to automatic, if the WLAN service is stopped, I suggest you to start the service and put it on automatic.
  
  Method 1: Follow the steps to start the WLAN service.

  (b) select autoconfiguration WLAN service in the list, right-click on properties
  (c) change the startup type to automatic
  (d) click the Start button
  (e), click on apply, Ok.
  (f) restart the computer and check if it works.

  The majority of connection in Windows vista problems have been resolved by installing the latest version of the driver for the NIC obtained from the manufacturer.

  Method 2: Try to update the Wireless driver and check to see if the same problem happens.

  a. click on start

  b. right click on computer

  c. click Properties

  d. click on Device Manager on the left hand side

  e. in the list of hardware categories, find the device you want to update, and then double-click the device name.
  f. click on the driver tab, click Update driver and then follow the instructions.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

• Windows Firewall service does not start after the removal of Virus

  Hello

  I believe that my son's computer has been infected with the Trojan.Agent.Ed virus.  I managed to remove it (from different folders in AppData), but a few vestiges remain of course.  The windows firewall service does not start - it throws an exception to access denied on startup and when I try to start the service manually.
  I tried to run the Sysinternals Process Monitor to display all events ACCESS DENIED and checked the permissions on the key to registry MpsSvc in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services and compared to a corresponding Windows 7 machine.  I've even exported the key MpsSvc and sous-branches of the laptop in good health and tried to import into a failure, but the import does not seem to occur, even if it gives a message "imported".
  I also tried the troubleshooting of Windows Firewall that confusedly says:
  "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall... Not fixed
  "Set permissions for the registry keys involved"... succeeded
  "Windows Firewall service is not started. Not fixed
  "Starting the Firewall Service"... succeeded
  Any ideas would be most appreciated.
  Thank you.

  Original title: Windows Update service is not running / working and is not listed in services.msc

  When I go to windows update a red shield with a white cross appears and when I click search for updates this message appears:

  "Windows update cannot currently check updates because the service does not work, you will need to start the computer"

  * Restared several times-nothing has changed

  Despite what other threads have advised to:

  I checked in the services and WINDOWS UPDATE, Background Intelligent Transfer Service or encryption services are not listed!

   

  * I have changed the settings to "Never search updates" and then back to "install updates automatically" - nothing has changed

  * I ran the Malicious Software Removal Tool http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/malware-removal.aspx- we say that everything was ok, but I can't always verify updates

  * I ran the download to reset windows update components http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058/en-us but still I can not check updates

  Or an extract SP51244 with something like 7-zip / winrar (select Extract to SP52144\). So, it extracts the files in folders.

  Then go to the entry SATA in DM. Go to the driver tab / driver update / browse computer / let me choose.

  Point to the folder that you extracted. Then the folder the folder drivers then the x 86. Since you are using 32-bit. And then click OK.
