Windows can't check for updates, error 80070409. How can I fix it
What should I do?
Quote your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.
What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription? What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications? What third-party firewall (if applicable)?
A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?
How about 80070490error?

Hello drjoe_anzaldua,
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.
Usually the "Windows is unable to Check For Updates" error message produced always of the blocker window update connection attempt.
1. first of all, please check that there is no any third-party firewall preventing Windows Update to communicate with "update.microsoft.com.
2. check if Windows Firewall is blocking the update of Windows.
Please see the following article for connection errors:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/836941
836941. you may encounter temporary connection errors when you use Windows Update or Microsoft Update to install updates
After following the steps of troubleshooting in the article, if you still get an error message, thanks for posting again so that we can help you.

I have a laptop that I use mainly for cloud computing and travel. I have much stored on the hard drive itself and I spent hours trying to solve the problem regarding
Windows can't check for updates, error code 800FFFF.I tried some of the recommendations varied on this site, but so far without success.
If I just wipe my computer, and then start reinstalling everything from below upwards, will that solve the problem? I know it sounds drastic, but I'm willing to do, and hopefully learn something in the process.
I'm not computer specific read and write... so it would take me hours, wading through all the different corrections before as I find one that works. That's why I'm considering a reformat.
I checked for malware and repeatedly tried to system update readiness tool.
Any thoughts?
Some information on my system:
OS: Vista Edition Home Premium
Version: 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002

I suggest you try the following:

Open Internet Explorer (only!) go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
[ignore the warnings of DO NOT APPLY and the section will APPLY to] & run the difficulty.
Note => for best results, check the option to remove personal settings.
NEXT
1. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336 [ignore the title & symptoms].
1B. make disappear/close the pop-up window "automated troubleshooting! -then...
c. 1, without taking into account any warnings similar, or '' not recommended '' run difficulty he 50202 in DEFAULT mode (if on a race later you still have the same failure, then repeat the above & select aggressive mode).2. closing of the session and restart the cool system & then run manually check the updates in Windows Update, etc, etc...
When you get to Windows Update, a custom scan updates. Take (accept) those marked critical or Important.
If it has updates Silverlight or Net Framework, select not them and leave it for one pass later.
Those that are marked as "optional" decline.
Have infinite patience so that it scans and it's work.
When you are prompted to restart Windows, please do. Allow it to restart.If you still have a failure and you just did a Fix - IT in the default mode, date back to 1 a/1 c and now this time make the default mode AND aggressive mode (both) and retry Windows Update again
Note: Running aggressive mode difficulty he 50202 will result in a loss of the history of the update but will not affect the actual installed updates.

Original title: Windows Update No. Longer - Vista business functions
Last month my Win Vista will not update, little matter how many times I try to do. I always get the error message "Windows cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running." You may have to restart your computer. "Control via msconfig reveals that he is ticked as"running ".
I run Microsoft Fixit has several times. It is said he has "solved" the problem, but it did not work. Of course there is a corrupted somewhere file that needs to be replaced.
Please don't say no "update for Win 7" or "Reinstall Windows" because it's not just going to happen.
Thanks in advance,
Hello
1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?
2. what anti-virus software is installed on your computer?
Follow these methods.
Method 1: Anti-virus software may conflict with Windows Update. You can temporary disable them and check the issue.
Disable the antivirus software
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2: How to reset the Windows Update components?
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058
Important: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-the-registryMethod 3: If the methods above do not help, I suggest you delete the edb.log file and check if that helps.
Follow these steps:
a. click the Start button, click computer.
b. now, go to this site: C:\windows\softwaredistribution\datastore\logs\edb.log
c. delete the log file, and then restart the computer and check the issue.
Well, it's going to be a long Chronicle, but in the end, the problem has been resolved. Please bear with me:
Running the program MS Fixit in the past without success, I tried to run the update after you temporarily disable AVG, my program AV. no joy.
I then ran CC Cleaner to get rid of some of 'dead weight '. I even used its registry cleaning option (which included saves).
At that point, I did some 'household', & began to defragment my HD with Defraggler. But since it seems to take forever, I went to My Defrag, who finished the job much quicker.
Although I tried to delete the edb.log file using method 3, I kept getting a message system which was unable to complete this action because the file has been opened in another program. In the end, I was able to delete the file, but fact directly through Explorer. There also seems to be a sort of small file edb.log, indicating that it was a "recovered" version I deleted that one as well.
At this point, I ran MS Fixit, who States that the Windows Update components needed to be fixed and proceeded to do so again. Because he had allegedly "fixed" my Updater in the past, I was not holding much hope that this time would be any different. So, after that what he has done, I was pleasantly surprised, I might actually start updating!
However, the update message that a new version would be dl before I could go any further. So I did it.
When the new version is started, it ran for about 10 minutes, coming with about 50 updates. According to flush out those who were of no use to me, finally I had dl and installed all relevant updates. And now, the update seems to work fine.
Once again, my apologies for the long answer. But I wanted to tell the whole story, as I did not quite plan of RajithR.
Thank you!

Windows can't check for updates 80244019 error code.
I have a problem, the system is vista home basic. Windows can't check for updates 80244019 error code. I have read many of the forms and ran from bugs that I found from microsoft. Further investigation indicates the RPC and DCOM service Launcher are grayed out and cannot be started or stoped. Registry settings look good for the RPC service. The DCOM service depends on RPC service. In the GUI at the same time say they are started but from the comand prompt, I run the command net start and neither one is registered as running. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi, I use Win Vista Ultimate 32-bit sp1. I have KIS2009, A Squared Anti Malware, MalwareBytes Anti Malware installed. All showing my system is clean. I ran MSRT analysis to light, and he pointed out that my system is clean also.
The problem
When I connect, I get a balloon in the notification area telling me that "windows cannot check for updates. Opening of update of Windows and do it to check a windows update updates it just go and research without results. It justs keep checking, but I get no error. Lists history of update Windows Defender updates the last today, 06/09/09. All updates prior to this are Windows Defender until 28/04/09. At this time I have installed 15 updates, including some Office updates. Click on installed updates and finally I said that there is no update at all?:What I tried
I disabled my firewall and tried again. No luck :(Tried a point files, but apparently I don't have? I should have, but there is none there. Install Win7 RC on a different partition, would this have wiped my restore points? I remember Vista made this for XP, but assumed that this would have been resolved with Win7.
I tried to install Win Vista sp2 but unfortunately, I installed the Russian language (don't know why I, I was annoyed a day) but the sp2 download in five languages and Russian is not one of them :(
So I tried to do a search on it. Came across various inscription mention deletion of registry keys. Only problem is that I have not mentioned keys. Some keys were supposed to be in the components of HKLM, sorry can't remember the others.
Find this site, I tried the FIX tool, reset Windows Update. He ran not aggressive and he made the restoration, request for permission to UAC thingy, then the progress bar moves to the right and nothing else happens. Restarted exciting tried and the same thing happens. Been sitting there for more than two hours and no results.
I checked services.msc. I have BITS began, was automatic but have updated the manual according to the instructions contained in the ' automatic updates can be turned off "at the top of the forum. Update of Windows, The Windows event log and Software Licensing Service are all set to automatic, and running.

Thanks for your help so far. I hope you don't mind but today how that spending (hard day @ work) I think I'll leave the installation of repair until tomorrow. More that likely the disc would have burst in the player, causing a sort of spike power was so my motherboard. So I think I'll just relax tonight and I hope tomorrow is a day better. Hope you have a good.See you soon

I have an error Code 80004002 doing "Check for Updates of Windows.
original title: I have an error Code 80004002 doing "Check for Updates of Windows. Any suggestions? Fred Naden
I click on "Check for Updates of Windows" and the message is 'Windows could not search for new updates' & ' an error occurred when the new updates
for your computer"and" error (s) found: Code 80004002 Windows Update encountered an unknown error ".". "
Hi Fred,.
To read the file CBS, the simplest method is to copy to another destination. Windows 'locks' the file as any event that must be written to the file CBS is done so during the normal process of Windows and if you play the file, it could cause a conflict. After copying the file to another location, it will open without any other change to the authorisation.
Regarding damaged/corrupted files try to find who they are and then check to see if they can be repaired manually.

How can you cancel the download of an update that was started by after having pressed the button "Check for Updates" in the window "On Firefox", please? If possible, please cover all platforms, Mac, Windows, Linux, although the first mentioned is what currently applies to my situation.
Thank you.
Such a download is usually recorded in a updates or updates folder in the program folder or the Firefox application.
You can delete this folder to cancel the download.If the files have already been downloaded, then delete the files in the folder updates\0 and updates.
