Windows 7 PC will never update
In the Action Center Windows Update (Important) I click on change settings. Windows Update is DISABLED. I can find no way to change it on YOU.
I can see the history of updates - this PC has been updated in 2012 - the date I bought it!
Please, how can I get the updates I need?
Hope someone can help me

Windows XP Pro will not update
Windows Update identifies 99 updates and starts to download, but will fail on the whole.
(1) how long updated this issue took place?
(2) what is the suite of security/antivirus installed; is it's subscription and current definitions; has whatever it is detected the last time that the system has been scanned with it?
You can reset the Windows Update components, but, if the malware is present on the system update will still be blocked by the malware.
Suggest you try to have the system scanned both of the following in the order next-

Download and save the Fixit from the page above.
Close all open programs and browsers before running the Fixit.
Given that the downloads fail, when you run the Fixit choose it is the default mode when you run it the first time.
When he finished, check if download updates now.If updates are still not download after running it, then run it again and choose it's aggressive mode.
Then reboot and see if the download updates now. -

Windows Media Center will not update EPG beyond 3 February 2016 UK
I'm running Windows 7 on a PC with TV tuner that is connected to our TV. The EPG ceased to update and shows nothing more than Wednesday, Feb. 3.
I tried the update of the EPG by following the steps suggested in the help section and other forums. WMC said it has updated successfully each time, but it didn't.
What could I do next? Or is it an alter program that can play and record TV in a similar way to WMC?
Thank you.

Is this a false message, or is there an update available? If yes how do I update my version?
Hello
It is not a false message, these updates are available. (I covered the camera raw info here)
If you load the editor, when you get told updates and you click Update, it may take a while to get there.
If you are on a Windows system, you can find that there is a flashing icon of user access control in your taskbar. I don't know about MAC systems.

After each attempt to update and restart, Firefox will never update to the new version. I'm still at version 34.0.5.
Hello!
Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.
- Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
- Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu
Click the close button
).
- Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
- Windows:
- C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
- C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
- Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
- Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
- Windows:
- Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
- Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
- Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.
More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.
WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.
Please report to say if this helped you!
Thank you.

Well, it came with mcafee anti-virus and it worked for 1 year. I forgot to write that (sorry). It's my girlfriend's pc, but I have the same and it works fine.
Your GF never need to subscribe to the McAfee preinstalled application or replaced prior to the expiration of the one year free trial...?
Assuming Vista, see...
Help: I got hacked. Now what should I do?
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspxPersonal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!
HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista#section_3
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.aspxNB: 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, Windows Service Packs, or updates IE and before installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).
