Windows 7 auto download updates.

I have 35 updates which will not be installed and will not disappear. This started with 5 who would not install and is now up to 35. What should I do?

You receive errors related to updates?

  1. Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button, all programs and then click Windows Update.
  2. In the left pane, click view update history.
  3. Find an update for Windows that has failed to install, and then double-click the update to view more information.
    Updates that have failed to install will display failed under status, next to the name of update.
  4. In the Windows Update dialog box, next to the details of the error, review the error code for the update has failed.

Follow the links in the Windows Update dialog box under more information or help and Support to resolve the problem, then try to reinstall updates by using Windows Update in Control Panel or by mail with the error code and maybe someone may be able to help others.

    Everything is great, until you are in store for the app that you want to download, but as soon as you select an application and click on install, the installation screen appears with the activity report of the applications queued for installation (in the waiting/download) and that's it. I can't download a single app, not even a simple pacman after waiting for 20 minutes. most of the time that the status is stuck on "pending", when the application starts downloading, it just gets stuck after that a little Chuck is downloaded.

    My internet connection is working perfectly, all pre-installed applications work fine, but I could not update or install applications.

  • Update Windows download updated to 0%

    64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium on a laptop Dell Studio XPS16; also have MS Office 2007 Enterprise; Note that the laptop came with Windows Vista 64 bit and I made the Dell Windows 7 64 bit upgrade using disks provided by Dell.  I guess these are OEM operating systems and I don't know if I have the ability to repair the Installation.  I suppose that if I do not have this utility, I have to buy the operating system again in a retail version, huh?

    Everything has been perfect so far.

    Windows Update seems to have stopped working properly on ~4/16/2010 after installation (according to the timestamp) simultaneous KB979309 and KB978601 indicating a successful installation.

    Windows Update detects now correctly that KB979863 and KB981332 remain to be installed.  Download had hung at 0% for 36 hours for these two programs when I decided to try to stop Windows Update with admin privs and copied "windows/software distribution/downloads" at downloads.old and then deleted the contents of the original file 'download '.  By this set of tasks, Services is entered into a 'Stop' for Windows Update state when asked, but never "Stopped" completely.  No errors have been encountered by copying the "downloads" folder in a new folder and then delete the contents of the original.  I then rebooted.  This looks similar to the Nice instructions in another thread.

    Windows Update is now auto-run (Delayed) in Services, but the process is now stuck at 5% for the two updates remaining to be installed.  I also downloaded the two files and tried to use the stand-alone Installer, but I encounter an error of "looking for installed updates to update... "that seems to never find what he seeks.

    I also tried restoring to a point before that one of these stupid things and, although it seems that restoration is to copy critical files according to the instructions of the screen, the result is that the restore fails despite having tried a few different Restore Points.

    Any help with explicit instructions such as those generally provided by PA Bear would be greatly appreciated.  I met a very similar to what 32-bit Vista error resulted in wholesale data loss that I did not repair the Installation on this OEM system either.  Well, I hope I can avoid that in this case.

    Thanks to all those who can help you.

    Comments: I've been running MSE since the first beta, and I installed it on several of my customers computers when he was released last September. As part of the installation process, MSE presents you with a command prompt (warning) to uninstall your current antivirus application or a security suite before installing MSE.

    With respect, I understand your frustration today but since you apparently ignored (or don't pay any attention to) this prompt, you have to assume at least part of the responsibility here. McAfee Security Center and MSE both installed, there's a very good chance that none of them worked properly.

    My recommendation (since you asked): Support MS may have other ideas (and you are certainly welcome to their search if & when you still hear support once), but here's how I would solve your problem:

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows 7. In my humble OPINION, a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix!

    HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation option" and formatting the hard drive section of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7

    Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

    4 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
         http://www.Microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspx

    NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the removal tool before installing updates and before installing your new antivirus application (for example, MSE).

    Norton Removal Tool
         FTP://ftp.Symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    McAfee Consumer product removal tool
         http://download.McAfee.com/Products/Licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

    If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.

    You can also contact Dell technical support for assistance with the clean install. And you will find in the appropriate Forum of community Dell Dell and peer-to-peer support: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/default.aspx

    Good luck!

  • How to replace "apply downloaded update now" with "Check for Updates" in the menu help when the update fails because the downloaded update files are missing but the "Ready to install update" window keeps appearing?

    Question

    I have another type of problem with Firefox

    Description

    Window "Ready to Install" Firefox "Software Update" appeared. The folder "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updates\0" contained the files update.mar, update.status and update.version. Each of the 3 files have been deleted. The next time that Firefox has been started, no update occurred because update files were missing. In the Menu bar, clicking Help showed in the menu drop-down that "apply downloaded update now" was always on the list. By clicking on "Apply downloaded update now" open "Software Update" window "Ready to install update", so that Firefox still considers that the update files exist, but they do not. In the window "Software Update", by clicking on "Restart Firefox" restart of Firefox, but once again it there's no update, and remains "apply downloaded update now" on the Help menu. How can "Apply downloaded update now" be replaced by "Check for Updates" so the update files can be downloaded?

    Version of Firefox

    3.6.3

    Operating system

    Windows XP

    User Agent

    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; RV:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

    • Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45
    • Version 1.0.3 copyright 1996-2009 The VideoLAN Teamhttp: / /www.videolan.org/

    You can manually reset the software update feature by closing Firefox and remove the file "updates" (which seems you have done) and the two files "active - update.xml" and "updates.xml" - these are in the installation (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox) directory or in the profile folder (C:\Documents and Settings\nom_utilisateur\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\something.default).

    If it does not, see our KB article How to resolve the failure of the update of Firefox update error message - the section of 'last resort' can be useful, or or read this article from MozillaZine KB, software update.

  • How to remove downloaded updates for Windows 7

    How can I delete downloaded updates of Windows 7?  While the updates are being downloaded, apparently I lost my internet connection then maybe that these were not completely downloaded. When I was prompted to install the updates, I did.  During the stop, the computer only installed15% and then stop.  I am now invited that updates were not properly installed.  I have updated manually several times over with the same results.  Should I delete the old downloaded updates and start again?  If so, how do remove these updates downloaded so I start again.  Thank you.
