  I am running Windows 7 and noticed that Windows updates did not work. The parameters are defined for the update every day. When I went to update manually returned an error WindowsUpdate_80070017.  MSFT site was no help. Any recommendations?

  Since neither updates Jan - 10 have installed, I'm going to hand you Support MS in the hope that they can resolve the problem. See below.

  That being said, is an interpretation of the 80070017 - cyclic redundancy check error "a device attached to the system does not work," which suggests that a hardware problem might be the cause of the error (although I must say that it is a very low possibility in this case).

  Good luck!

  Hi sanjeevkode,

  Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.  As the question you posted typically associated with third party software / application that has its own way of program codes and call the corresponding system resources when installing and running. Therefore, I also suggest you to join the VMware Forums for the best support.

  VMware communities: http://communities.vmware.com/home.jspa

  In the meantime I suggest you try these options / methods

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Microsoft provides this information as a convenience to you. Proposed changes could lead to serious problems. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems would be solved as a result of the suggestions. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  Option 1: If you go to computer management, and then to the list of Services and find the VMware authorization Service, it appears as stopped? If so, you need to start

  Option 2: Try logging on as an administrator Local host during installation first workstation, rather than you connect with a domain ID

  Option 3: The question can be caused also by your security program such an antivirus or a firewall of Windows /Defender that can have conflicting parameters as to not not to perform certain tasks. I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall and check the result again. You must enable security programs new that had disabled you

  Option 4: The problem could be linked to a local or domain group policy. Make sure that the local account is defined as 'local user __vmware_user__' in the local Administrators group and the permissions of "Log on locally" and "Log on as a service.

  The two parameters are available in the "* Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment *" branch of domain group policy or local.

  Let me know if it worked.
  Hope it will be useful.

  Thank you and best regards,

• Windows Windows 8 does not properly after deleting important files to user (already tried everything I found things different from +-10)

  well, I'll start from the beginning.

  the first big mistake I did was change the permissions of the administrator until he was the same trustedinstaller (without this I wouldn't do stupid things, but I did it for a change of details in the registry)

  the strange thing that I've been in conflict with, is that this pc was my mother, so everything to his e-mail address and his name 'Nancy' after some time she gave me the pc so I made my own top user account named "maxim" (that's my name) on my email address and probably deleted the user account from my mother named Nancy so no problem until something has started to bored

  the usersection in solution under C: contained Explorer still card Nancy with some of its documents on the left and some (I have something windowsrelated files)

  so I thought why not remove that card and saw that a card with my name was there too in the usersection, these same unknown files which I think are windowsrelated (btw, these files were hidden but ofcourse to check everything I have chekced the area to see hidden files in Explorer)

  I know not the name of all the files that I have demolished within this named Nancy in user card, but as far as I know, is that files that I noticed (these hidden files) are 7 files ntuser and those who are also in the plan named maxim in this usersectionso I thought no problem and delete the files as managed (with edited permissions)

  now I certainly delete files that I wasn't allowed to, and who were required to run windows properly, I know that, because of the errors, I am when I try to start things or when I try to fix things

  now I searched a LOT on the web especially in the microsoft forums and I fount a lot of 'solutions' that did not work for me

  most of the time, it was because I get an error because I could not more process these configurations etc.

  and somethimes as the scan SFC, he said that the correction of some problems, but there are many problems left that cannot be repaired in this way

  also almost everything I'm doing atm (also when I try to fix my problem) that I have to do with a big traverse most of the time I use "this run dialog box" or the command prompt

  now, these are all the things I tried

  -each 2013 thing tuneup utilities can do (scans included registery) of course I don't know the exact names of the files important I lost so I couldn't those used with tuneup

  -do you have some full scans with Norton 2013 (did not find any problem)

  -does this scan SFC and said there are still problems and has not noticed any difference

  -tried to update my pc did not work (missing windows services)

  -a tried to restart something in the registry did not work (missing windows services)

  -tried to make a new user on my pc did not work (missing windows services)

  -also tried lots of windows, fix things program (I forgot the name of it, but he could only tell me that he had problems and could not fix their)

  I'm shure that I have tried many other things so I mentioned in any case but I forgot the

  Many thanks if someone can help me out as sorry for the great story, but I wanted to tell all I know because it's a sensitive issue and please don't mind my bad English :)

  Your Windows product key can be printed on a label located on the underside of your laptop, if you don't you won't have it. Using the recovery partition, it is a good idea if you have no recovery on a disk media, often there is a Windows repair option, you can try this, however if there is no data on the first partition that you interested, I recommend you just format the partition for essentially erase everything on it and reinstalling Windows on the recovery partition. This will probably not require you to reactivate Windows by using the product key.

  If you cannot use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows, then you can go to this page (on the computer that is working properly) http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only and click on install Windows 8, save the file, run it and choose Install by creating media. This you will get an ISO file that you can burn on this disc you mentioned, just put the disc in your computer, right click on the ISO file and choose burn. It should also not ask to reactivate Windows, if you did no major hardware changes to the computer.
  Again, I would like to know if you need help with any of these steps or if none of these steps work for you.

• Windows 7 (64-bit) Windows Update does not properly.

  Hello everyone, I hope you all do well.

  So my problem right now is that the Windows Update program does not work as it should be, at all. Originally, she showed all the updates, it has proposed to install, but when I tried to download and install it, it didn't work. It hung for hours with no progress, even when I chose only about 11 updated. My internet shouldn't be the problem. I have great internet (currently at trial to double check) that usually is averaging 14ms ping, download 65 Mbps and 5 Mbps upload, so that shouldn't be the issue.

  I tried to make a solution involving all simply delete the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder and restart the update service, but that it did not set. I ran the diagnostic tool and it says it fixed a number of things, but not an error specific, shown here:

  .

  I tried a few other things, like renaming the files after stopping wuauserv and bits, cryptsvc claim not Real. Curious on if there is no further action that I can take to try to solve this problem, because it makes me nervous and worried that something might affect me if I don't get some put updates in place. I'm sorry to post a new topic on this when there is a little bit before, but many, if not all of them are 2010 or 2011 at the latest.

  Thank you all for your time and attention!

When I tried to install after pressing accept on the license agreement screen, when it says computer preparation. I get an error indicating that the Installation has failed. I also tried some work around and find myself without success. So far, I turned my (even uninstalled), kaspersky internet security ran system update tool, disable most of the startup process, reset the permissions in my registry and created a new user with privileges to administrator, but when I access the user created recently, after the box at the top left corner that says personilizing (in the classic windows theme) need me just a blue screen error-free. But I can still access the Task Manager and its been like that since.

  And I also did an accesskchk command that noted:
