• Windows Update will not download, just stays at 0%

  Hi, past the month or so my windows update will not download at all. I never had no problems until now. Im running on windows 7 64. I'll start, click windows update and download hit. Once I have click on windows update, it just sits there with the bar running, showing me his 0%. Please if someone might know a solution, that would help a lot.

  Yes.  I had the same problem, I installed the update when my power went out, so I couldn't download it, but managed to get the update that I needed the microsoft Web page and we smooth sailing since then.

• Updates will not download and install - NO ERROR CODE - updates remain at 0%

  For Adobe Support.

  I get the popup "update" whenever I connect to my computer and it gives me an error message but no code error. The update starts at 0% and stays there indefinitely.

  It's VERY frustrating because on top of working 10 hours today, I have now lost another hour, trying in vain to find a solution.

  By quitting their stand alone suite (CS5, 6 etc) and later support for it, Adobe has FORCED me to use their Cloud Creative suite subscription. While I HATE not being able to buy a standalone program, I like the CC Suite and I'm PAYING for this subscription that provides the latest updates. Now, all of a sudden the updates will not download and install and Adobe wants me to follow a set RIDICULOUSLY long and complicated steps to solve the problem? It's a complete and absolute nonsense!

  I am a self-controlled, respectable and intelligent individual, but it makes me want to use profanity! I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS NONSENSE.

  According to the latest information (see: Adobe : Cloud accelerates since 3.4 million paid creative members |) ProDesignTools) there is over 3.4 million people like me PAY for reliable use!

  Frankly, I'm so frustrated that I am very close to spearhead a national campaign to educate these users 3.4 million on the negligence of Adobe supported because it's visitors!

  WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! ADOBE NEEDS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! When you get this figured out, I'll certainly appreciate an e-mail from your. In the meantime. Be aware that each passing day, and whenever I see this pop up, it serves as a reminder that Adobe does not respect what they promised!

  Kind regards

• Windows Update will not download?

  When I try and download windows updates it remains at 0% and will not download. Also any secondary windows pop up I opened Virgin rest. These errors started exactly at the same time. I use windows 7 and Norton 360 (4.0)

  Norton 360 v4.x was not released until February 17, 2010. If you have purchased & installed Norton 360 in August 2009, it was Norton 360 v3.x, so you must have upgraded to v4.x because you upgraded to Win7 in October 2009.

  Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. [No, Norton Support will not tell you this.] Norton 360 v3.x "leftovers" can be cause of your problem.

  [You want to print the following instructions for consultation offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (includingLiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) via Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

  4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

  NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

  5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  6. do a clean install of the latest version of Norton 360 (using your product ID, if necessary) & restart:http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

  IMPORTANT! -Online do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

  7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate (Norton) until you get a prompt "no update more".

  8. If you have had problems with Internet Explorer 8, perform a reset now: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Reset-Internet-Explorer-settings

  8 b. Open IE8 (only) (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run the difficulty by DEFAULT inside and then AGGRESSIVE modes (again). [1]

  9. restart & test.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  [1] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates.

• Windows Update will not download updates.

  Today I've eliminated my Windows xp and you use the xp disk I reloaded and formatted a new. I did this in the past and had no problem today, I find that after doing everything and windows stops then I went to windows update, that he asked to install active x and will not update download. There is nothing in my add and remove programs. Not sure how to proceed

  • http://*. Update.Microsoft.com

  • https://*. Update.Microsoft.com

  • http://download.windowsupdate.com

  • http://windowupdate.Microsoft.com

  Open Internet Options, Security tab, click Trusted sites, click Sites.

  Uncheck: Require server verification box, add the 4 websites above.

  Try again, if successful, use the custom Option and uncheck all of the updates.

  Read the first update for .net to tell the first and only download.

  Download it, reboot and go back to check again for any .net and .net only download.

  Make updates to .net security, then check again for .net or .net Security.

  When there is no more .net then do the other.

  Perform these tasks in groups and not all at the same time.

  This how to install .net first will save problems later.

  If you want to have the time and Patience, you must install the Service Packs first.

  If you later reinstall OS and you install the drivers manually install the Service Packs right after OS reinstalled before installing any drivers. You can first install the drivers but it is better Service Packs first as sometimes when you install a Service Pack after the drivers, you can find some drivers do not work and you have to reinstall these drivers.

  For people using the original image, your drivers are already installed then install Service Packs just after the factory restore before installing applications or devices or download Windows updates.

  Service Packs using immediately also save hundreds of download of the updates of Windows first of all that all updates to the top until the release of Service Packs are included.

  XP Service Pack here:

  You can download it manually or order a CD from the link above.

  Windows 7 update problems? First read this.

• Windows Update will not find or install the updates

  I turned on my laptop last night after several months of inactivity, and when I ran Windows Update I met an interesting problem. Windows Update took a long time to look so I decided to let it run all night. When I checked on this subject in the morning, Windows Update has been always looking, but I had already received a notification in the taskbar informing me that there are updates available.

  I could not cancel the search, so I restarted my laptop, and when I logged Windows again, I saw the list of the updates that are available even if the "last check for updates" was always showing "22/05/2016 at 22:46. I selected all important updates and tried to download and install them, but after several hours, the status was still stuck at 0%. I canceled the installation and noticed that the update of Silverlight has been downloaded and ready to be installed. I tried to update only one without success and was finally able to get it by allowing Windows Installer updates immediately before the power off of the laptop. When I turned my phone back and connected, I could do the same for an update of the framework.

  So far, those who have been the only two updates to cross, and I could not download or install the rest. An additional problem is that my Windows Update always displays a prompt stating "Windows 10 upgrade booked" despite the deadline passing on the free update. When I see the confirmation, I get a popup Windows 10 stating that the offer has ended. I don't know if this is related to why Windows Update does not work, but I saw more guests for 10 Windows on my main computer once the delay.

  Other things I've tried are to update manually the time at the time of Microsoft servers and try to download and install the updates one at a time, but neither contributed to the situation. In addition, Microsoft Security Essentials apparently downloaded and installed the latest definition files on its own, so it would seem that the problem is only related to Windows Update.

  I've attached screenshots of my Windows Update history and update. Any help would be appreciated.

• Windows Update will not download files January 2016

  I am running Windows 7 and I am trying to download all updates from January 12, 2016.  The download does not start, sitting at 0% for more than half an hour. No error code is displayed. A laptop computer that I also use properly updated this morning. There is no problem with my internet connection.

  Windows Update displays: 23 updates, (Total of 0 KB, 0% complete).

  I restarted the computer (the button turn off had a yellow shield, indicating the necessary to install updates, closing took a lot of time to finish), when the finished computer restart I ran an app such FixIt recommended by using Microsoft Windows Update. Now, Windows Update is hung on the status of "check for Updates". Cancelled that and found another utility here:

  https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/windows-update-issues?wa=wsignin1.0. As utility works for nearly 15 minutes, stuck on "Solve problems" will wait a little longer before canceling this utility.

• Windows updates will not download/install

  I have an Asus laptop that is about 2 years old.  I am running Windows 8 on a 64 bit system.  The laptop only periodically adjusts and downloads from previous update failed.  Now, when I start it tells me that there are 115 updates to download.  After leaving try and download these all day yesterday, he stopped, display of the progress bar on 99% c, but it will not go further.  I tried the upgrade to 8.1, but will not proceed until the updates are complete.  I had hoped that the 8.1 installation would simply replace previous updates that were needed - apparently not!

  I don't know what to do next - any suggestions?

  Thank you.

  [1] another option is probably just to let off Windows updates and continue to use it as it is.

  [2] of course, I'm protected by Norton...

  A1. Yes, if the computer will NEVER be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers).

  A2. I suspect your Norton application is not installed or working properly.

• Important Windows updates will not download

  When I checked yesterday for Windows updates, I see there are 11 important updates and 1 optional.  However, after I check/select the updates to install, nothing happens.  They do not download, so they cannot be installed.  I put my updates is installed by me and not automatically because I did once.  What is the problem here?

  Ensure that the Service "Windows Update" and the "Background Intelligent Transfer Service" are running and not registered in the Services window.

  in "search programs and files" type "services" (without the quotes).

  In the results, click on 'services', should open the services window.

  Check BITS and Windows Update are listed and started.

  If the services are listed but not started, try to launch by right-clicking on the service properties, [general] tab, then click . You must be in a session of admin account to start or stop a service.

  If they are listed and started, then try to manually select an update by itself and see if it installs ok. If it is not always download it, then deselect and try another. None of them download ok by themselves?

  How long have you waited? There has been some recent reports that updates take longer time to download that in the past.

• Windows update is not download and install Service Pack 1, 2 3

  Did a fresh install of Vista 32 bit Home Premium on Acer Extensa 4420. After repeatedly run Win Update and installation of more than 60 update updates said that I was aware. HOWEVER, SP - 1 was not detected as missing but was necessary for the other software work. I found SP-1 and installed manually. Now Win Update refuses to download Service Pack 2, so of course it also doesn't download Service Pack 3.

  Why is Win defective Update and do not install it no matter what Service Packs?

  Do I have to manually install SP2 & SP-3 or should I wait until I discovered problems or get a virus or another bad thing because Win Update did not bother to run properly?

  ===========================================
  I think it may be better if you download full
  files on your desktop and then install from there. And... BTW...
  There is no Vista SP3.

  Once you have the file on your desktop, it can be a useful
  try to unplug the net and turn off your anti-virus
  before installing.
