• Windows Update encountered an unknown error code 6b 7.

  What is said for the most part.  I am running Vista Home Premium x 64 on a machine rather top of range (Q9550 processor, 16 GB DDR2-800 RAM, fast hard drives 1.5 TB each, etc.) -specs factory, not overclocking, or something like that.  When I try to install the updates, Windows meets an 'unknown error' (Code 6B 7).  It usually happens when he tried to update .NET - and that's why I can't use Windows Live Messenger or all the other Windows Live programs, in addition to a lot of third party programs.

  I am really lost and don't know what to do.  I asked before and told to uninstall and reinstall all the old versions of the .NET, but also warned that the process was dangerous and could cause trouble.

  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.  If you need more information, please ask and I will answer as best as possible.

  I suggest that you run the following tools:
  Disk error checking

  System File Checker

  In addition, the tools above do not correct the problem, you should look at thisarticle.  If it applies to your version of Vista so I suggest try download it see if it will install.

• Windows Update 646 on KB977304 error code

  I downloaded and installed 8 of 9 updates successfully in my computer (which has Windows Vista Home Basic Edition), but the major update of security for Microsoft Works 8 (KB977304) failed, and I got error Code 646, followed of a message "Windows Update has encountered an unknown error.  I tried to download and install the update several times, without success.  Finally, I stopped trying to install the update, as I thought Microsoft would soon find a solution to the problem, and I would be able to install the update at a later date.
   
  Out of curiosity, I opened Microsoft Works word processor and clicked on "about Microsoft Works" under the help tab, to see which version of
  Microsoft Works was preinstalled on my computer.  I discovered that the Microsoft Works program in my computer is really version 8.5, not version 8 which is shown on the security update!  The difference in the version numbers of the update for Microsoft Works and Microsoft Works program in my computer perhaps the reason why I got the error Code 646, message "Windows Update has encountered an unknown error"?  Janice M.

• "Windows Firewall cannot change some of your settings. Error code 0 x 80070424 ' how to fix this?

  I get this error: "firewall Windows cannot change some of your settings. Error code 0 x 80070424"when I try to turn on the Windows Firewall (Windows 7).  I am also unable to start my computer in safe mode.  My computer has been infected by the virus 'Win 7 Security 2012', which is what caused this damage to my system.  The virus also seems to have removed all the system restore points before the infection!  I believe that I have the virus completely deleted.  I used Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware, Kapersky Virus Removal Tool, antivirus Ati Avira (anti-virus program I was running when my computer has been infected by the virus) & Microsoft Security Essentials.  I ran the Scan SFC, a tool for emergency response Microsoft Support, Microsoft FixIt, ComboFix, & Tweaking.com Windows Repair all-in-One.  Repair Windows Tweaking.com seems to be turned Action Center back, where I now get a message that: "Windows Defender is turned off" & it does not seem to recognize MSE as my anti-virus program.  I need to know how to get Windows Firewall works again & get Action Center working properly again.  My computer has a partition with my Windows Recovery on it, but since I can't start in safe mode, I can not also start the restore partition to do a "repair" install, or even restore to factory settings!  Can anyone help?

  Also, when I use a search engine on internet, I get re-directed to a site that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the result of the research, and I click on... I am not that so that is proof that the virus is not COMPLETELY gone or not.

• Receive the error code 80070002 when installing CrashPlan?

  I have a backup of my files (CrashPlan) service on a MacBook. I was trying to download and install the same service on my Windows 7 Desktop, I get the message displayed in the image below:

  http://i.imgur.com/iIBoy2E.jpg

  I studied the error code and found this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-update-error-80070002#1TC=windows-7

  I followed the steps, even if the error I received was not as a result of an attempt to update Windows. Restarted my computer later and I tried to re - install CrashPlan. Still did not work.

  I'd appreciate any comments on this page or anything else I could do. I already contacted the company to see if it was what they could do on this subject, but I think it might be a problem with my computer?

  Thank you.
