Windows 7 PC will not be updated.
Windows 7 PC my friend only keep looking for updates but not found in more than 45 days. If he tried to update manually, it will begin the search but then just keep checking. Normally, if there is no update, it would finally stop looking and say "Windows is up-to-date", but is not yet do. It keeps just to research and looking for as long as the computer is turned on.
It cannot be upgraded to Windows 10 because several major programs he uses are not compatible with 10. (He actually was updated about 6 months at 10 and could not get the programs to work when he came to 7. Everything worked well once he returns.)
I did a restore of the system for him at a time just before his latest updates successfully and now he always does the same thing, keeps constantly checking.
One last thing, on the Windows Update home page, until I start the updates manually, it says "Windows is up to date" and it shows the last time it was updated may 2016. It is now July. He gets no error message any.
We never seen it before?
We never seen it before?
This is the new default behavior in Windows update. Client update KB3138612 can not handle patch day KB3161664 June, to make a long story short. Client update to install KB3161647, available only in the framework of the cumulative June 2016, KB3161608.
https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3161608
A research potentially being updated in the background should be stopped first. The value of the automatic updates to "never check for updates" and then restart.

Windows Media Center will not be updated to allow the Blu Ray
Hello
I have an Acer laptop that supports Blu Ray disc, but when I go to play with Windows Media Center there is a pop up that says that "an essential element must be updated", but whenever I click "update", it tells me that my internet connection is not working it may not update. I checked and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection and library still refuses to update. Is there a way to force it to update? Or another program that will support the Blu Ray?Thank youKerrynThere is no native support in Windows for the Blu - Ray, including Media Center. Youneed a third-party Blu Ray player.

Guide to Windows Media Center will not be updated, hourly almost empty
Using WMC with antenna and Uverse Internet connection. These days Guide in Windows Media Center has been warning me about the guide with less than 3 days on his calendar. Now I see that the schedule tomorrow. It asks if I want to update the guide, I say OK and it says it is complete, but the guide never gets updated. After tomorrow, if the guide is not updated, this feature will be worthless. How can it get updated since it controls recording? (Win 7 Home Premium SP1)

I tried to configure Media Center for Internet TV and Netflix. I have Setup several times and attempted to manually download the updates. So far, neither option appeared on the menu screen and I repeatedly received an error message when you try to download updates to the guide that directs me to check the update log. I find the event log, and that's what he said:
* 10:44:58 - test of internet connection. 10:45:01 - established connection. 10:45:02 - directory of recovery. 10:45:03 - directory of recovery. 10:45:04 - directory of recovery. 10:45:05 - Directory of recovery.

Also, when I tried to contact support by email and has been asked to enter my product ID number to verify the activation, I was told it was not valid. I repeatedly entered it exactly as stated on the page of the system. I also activated the software certified on the same page of the system.
Any help would be appreciated because I would really like to be able to use these features.
Thank you.
I had this same problem. That's what I did which appeared to fix (not sure if that fix or if it sets just itself). I ran the mcupdate.exe file located in the C:\windows\ehome\ directory (or some windows player is on). Yet once again, I'm not sure if this corrects the problem, or if it randomly determines.

Hello... my computer will not install update KB2378111 with a code error 80070570. In addition, I can not install all programs downloaded from the internet, specifically my anti-virus software. I'm running without any software antivirus at this time. I ran the most recent Microsoft malicious software removal tool and it showed that there is no problem.

Cleaning a compromised system
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) will NOT fix it!
HOW to do a clean install of Vista: see the "to install Windows by performing a clean install" (or "reinstall Windows Vista") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista article
NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").
After the new installation, 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) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

VERY IMPORTANT! -Online any 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 appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application.

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.
Good luck!

It's a new laptop me issued by the University last year, is come pre-programmed with Vista and Office, Media Direct and other programs, most of which I didn't use. Technical support here at uni cant/wont help... can you?
Trudy,
Try the following and let us know the results.
Run these tools:Take note of the results of the System File Checker. Then after you run the two, run Windows Update.
You are able to update of AVG?
Any other antivirus (i.e. Norton, McAfee, etc.) has already been installed on this computer?
When you say 'Nothing' that you tried to install?
If you disable AVG and then run Windows Update you get a different outcome\error?Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

Pavillion23: Windows 7 will not be updated. I get error code 800706F7.
Windows 7 will not be updated. I get error code 800706F7. I removed the update painful KB304394, which of course still blocking updates, earlier. Since then, I find in the history of the update that almost most of the windows update attempt failed. (A couple for Windows Defender succeeded). Now, when I try to install an update manually, I get the 800706F error code.
