I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista, Intel Core 2 Duo. I get this error code: Windows could not search for new updates - error Code 80073712. A view of my previous updates log indicates that the last time I received updates Windows has been 14/07/12. I tried a system restore, but the first restore point was 04/09/12. I tried restoring the system anyway, and there no reolve the problem.  I went on the web and the fixer online Windows did not work. Don't know what to do.

Have you tried any of these terms of the resolution?

    Hello

    Thank you for your update on the issue.

    Since you have already done SFC scan, I suggest you perform a repair installation (upgrade Inplace). There seems to be some corruption of system files and the repair facility should be able to fix them.

    Note: before proceeding with the installation of repair, I suggest you make a backup of all your data.

    Backup your files: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-your-files

    To perform a repair installation, follow the steps in the following article:

Windows Update has encountered an unknown error.  I tried all the suggestions of troubleshooting the problem, but nothing has worked.  I am very frustrated and tired of dealing with this problem.  If there is a problem with updates that Microsoft sends then they should correct this problem. I have four computers in my house and I'll only have this problem with the computer that has Windows Vista.  Help, please!

  • "Windows could not search for new updates" error Code 80041054

    Almost SIX months to find a solution to this problem.  Countless emails, phone calls, try this and try that.  I bought this laptop in May and was NEVER able to perform an update.  I tried everything I can think of and everything that has been proposed in e-mail from Microsoft.  I gave up any type of phone support - repeated "disconnection".  I can't reinstall Windows Vista because it came pre-installed.  I'm really just fed up.  I bought Office and Outlook - or work correctly.  I bought some software today (Roxio VHS to DVD) and I am unable to use it because it requires an update of Windows!  I did some research on this and found others with the same problem that dates back to 2007 - not answers on the Microsoft forums!

    Any ideas?  I tried Mr. Fix - it.  I downloaded the standalone installer - took about 45 minutes of so-called 'install' - and then nothing!  He never did any kind of scan and now I can't even find it on my computer.  I'm ready to make the leap to a Mac.

    It comes with Vista, upgrade install and activate Forum.

    Rename the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution Windows Update

    That's what I got when searched around the error 0 x 80248015

    This problem may occur if the Windows Update, software distribution folder was damaged.

    We can refer to the following steps to rename this folder.

    Please note that the file will be re-created the next time we visit the Windows Update site.

    1. close all open windows.

    2. click on the "Start" button, click "All programs" and click on "Accessories".

    3. right click on "Command prompt" and click "run as Administrator".

    4. in the window "Administrator: command prompt", type " net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.

    Note: Please, look at the cmd window and make sure that it is said that he was arrested with success until we try to rename the folder.

    5. click on the button 'Start' in the 'Search' box type " %windir%" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.

    6. in the opened folder, find the folder named "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution".

    7. right click on the folder, select "Rename" and type " Sdold " (without the quotes) to rename this folder.

    8. still in the window "Administrator: command prompt", type the command " net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) in the opened window to restart the service Windows updates.

    Note: Please, look at the cmd window and make sure that it says it has successfully launched.

    Note: If the problem is resolved and you can successfully download and install the updates, you can delete the directory SoftwareDistribution.old to recover disk space.

  • Windows could not search for new updates: Error Code 80080005

    I'm doing a search for new updates to make sure that I'm updating and it will not search for them.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I ended up reformatting my computer to solve the problem.

  • My "windows update" says he can not search for new updates-error code 80070002. Help, please. Thank you!

    I already tried ideas to stop the Windows Update Service, removal of temporary files to update and restart the Windows update service.

    Hello

    Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
    Follow these methods mentioned below and check.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to check if you are able to access Windows Update service and ensure that the following services are started. If it is not started, follow these steps:
    a. Click Start, type services.msc without the quotes and press ENTER.
    b. search Windows Update.
    c. right-click on the service and select Properties.
    d. in startup type, select Enable.
    e. Click Start under the service status.
    f. click OK.
    Repeat steps c through f for the following services:
    Background Intelligent Transfer Service
    Cryptographic services
    If the steps do not help to solve the problem, you can go ahead with the methods mentioned below and check.
    Method 2:
    Your anti-virus software is in conflict with Windows updates. You can test this by temporarily disabling your antivirus software. Check out the following link.
    Disable the antivirus software
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/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.

  • Windows could not search for new updates - error Code 80070005, please can someone help?

    I get the message above for about 6 months, really since I tried to install updates including IE9, it went to the wall. It seems that the history of all my previous updates have the problem dissappeared also.

    I searched in different forums and tried several solutions but no evail, but some people do not seem to have been lucky enough to rectify the issue even if I do not deliver hope immediately.

    I am running Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 1720, but I don't have any software recovery to help me as far as I know that I'm running as the administrator should therefore not be permissions issues, but please also no matter what advice would be welcome.
