• Windows updates lead to Startup Repair whenever I restart

  Hello.

  This issue was irritates me for some time.

  It started when my Skype would not display the log in page, Skype was working fine before. My Internet Explorer 9 does not display pages. Therefore, I tried to get IE11 of Windows Updates. At this time, Windows Update does not work and I found out, I was missing the TustedInstaller.exe, so I had to copy a computer from my friend of the same type.

  Windows Update started to worked fine and checked for 147 updates for me to install (when I came to my computer, Windows Update has been disabled on the not to check the updates).

  I installed them, and when it asks me to restart, I go and do it. However, the percentage of "Configuration of Windows Update" was stuck at 15% (now it is stuck at 30%). Then restart my computer it asks me to start repairs. I do repairs and I think it worked. However, none of the updates to install. I try to update again, but start repairs continue to come back. I can restart my computer without doing the updates. But when I restart to make updates, start repairs.

  I have a Windows 7, 64-bit, SP1.

  Hello Arjun,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft community.

  According to the description of the problem your computer stuck at startup repair after installing Windows updates. The question might be if there is a file system corruption. So I would say that you want to run auto repair before you reinstall the operating system. To perform the task, I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps.

  To run the Startup Repair tool, see the links below for more details:

  What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

  Startup Repair: frequently asked questions
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Startup-Repair-frequently-asked-questions

  If the problem persists, try to run auto repair from the Windows recovery environment (Windows RE) using the installation media and see if it helps.

  When you use the recovery (Windows RE) environment to resolve startup problems, first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If this does not resolve the problem, or if you have additional problems manually, use the Bootrec.exe tool.

  Since you are unable to launch desktop and stuck on auto repair loop, you may need to create a bootable Windows installation media, and then perform an automatic repair. If you are using Windows 7 then the link provided below might help you to download and create installation media.

  Download Windows 7 Disk Images (ISO files)

  If the problem persists, try to rebuild the BCD by using the Bootrec.exe tool.

  To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Place the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
  2. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
  3. Click repair your computer.
  4. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  5. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
  6. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

  See the following link for more information:

  I hope this helps. If the problem still persists, post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

• Windows Update, causing the application to fail

  After downloading the latest update of Windows, very few of my apps will work. I use an Alienware m15x with OS 64 b. This problem occurs when you press play on iTunes, try to start playing a video in my browser, starting a game, etc. Once launched, the program crashes completely. The problem does not affect something like opening a web browser or Microsoft Office startup. I can use the Task Manager to terminate the frozen program.

  Drey,

  Clear upward your Temp File/Cache, restart the computer and try again. Better and easier to use - CCleaner.

  Hi Alan,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I understand that the computer does not restart even after running Startup Repair and I will be happy to answer your query. I appreciate the efforts made to try to make it work. Let me ask you;

  • How do you run the Startup Repair?
  • Do you have Windows 7 repair disc?
  • Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?
  • Have you plugged an external equipment, except the keyboard and mouse?
  • You are able to start the computer in safe mode?
  • What is the brand and model of the computer?

  Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  There could be several reasons why he's not leaving including hardware as well. In addition, it could be because the master boot record (MBR) has been damaged. When you try to use the Startup Repair tool to repair the MBR, the Startup Repair tool indicates that no problem was found or it does not work yet.

  If you have any connected USB flash drive or other external devices connected to the computer, if you please, remove them and try to run the Startup Repair tool.

  If you haven't tried using Windows 7 repair disc, you can try the following:

  1. Insert the Windows 7 disc
  2. restart your computer
  3. When asked if you want to boot from your DVD player, do it.
  4. Select your language, click Next.
  5. click on repair your computer
  6. Select the operating system you want to repair.

  You can also perform the system restore by selecting the restore point when you think it worked very well. System Restore, choose advanced options using the disc.

  Important: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed after this date are deleted.

  I also recommend to contact the computer manufacturer to get the done diagnostic equipment.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

• Windows Update Causes startup problem

  I have an interesting problem with Windows Update (or apparently is from Windows Update). I am running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit, if that info is needed. There are two updates I have not install, as I am not sure that is the cause. The updates in question are Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Defender definitions 1.63.604.0. Here's what's happening.

  When you restart after Windows updates, the computer starts with a black screen with a mouse pointer. That's all. Happened every time I tried to start after the pdates. I can reboot into SafeMode very well, is apparently a problem driver or update.

  I also installed DivX on the computer, but it seemed to work as I could watch .avi via WMP thereafter, so I excluded. I thought that if there was a problem with it, it would not have worked in the first place, but I thought it was interesting.

  In any case, the only solution I found doing a system restore and do not install updates day or DivX, since technically I don't know which is the cause. I had to restore the system 3 times already and I didn't continue to do because this computer was very expensive and I don't want to ruin the hardware or something.

  Someone knows something about an error with updates, or perhaps with DivX that may have caused this. The computer works fine without the updates or DivX, I just want to know what could be the real problem so if it is only one of the 3, I can install the other two at least.

  Change your update settings, install the updates one at a time, hide the problem:

  Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

  > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

  > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

  When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

  > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

  See you soon.

  Hi I was wondering if I can get a few hekp with this question. After installing Avast AV my computer cannot load Vista. HE continues to go to the Startup Repair, and it gives me an error of windows registry. I idid a debbug and had no errors on the disc. Safe mode does not work. I tried restore to earlier date and nothing, went to the command prompt and type chkdsk /F. c: here's what I got the chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. CHKDSK may run if this volume is dismounted first. ALL OPEN GERE to this VOLUME WOULD then BE INVALID. And then he asks me if I want to force a disassembly. Press o and had. Windows check the file system and found no problem. The last line says failure to transfer the messages saved in the log of the events with the 50 State. It's all I have.

  Hello

  ·         How have you tried to do system restore?

  I recommend you to restore system using a Windows Vista DVD.

  Here's how:

  To open the Options menu system recovery using a system repair disc or a Windows Vista installation disc

  If your system is damaged and cannot access the menu system on your computer Recovery Options, you can access it using the Windows Vista installation disc or a system repair disc previously.

  To use this method, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the disk.
  1 insert the disc.
  2. restart your computer using the power button on the computer.
  3. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
  If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer.

  4. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
  5. If you are using the Windows installation disc, click on repair your computer.
  6. Select the Windows installation you want to repair, and then click Next.

• Windows Update Causes Massive screw-up system. Help!

  Hello world!

  I need help desperately. I use a HP Slimline desktop running Vista. I've recently updated (last Tuesday or more) using UPDATES AUTOMATIC - and my computer everything is SCREWED now.

  Essentially - I installed the update as part of the shutdown process, as I normally would. But restart my computer, it gets regarding the screen before the log-in (when he has this loading bar bit and the rest of the screen is black). Momentarily, one of two things happens:

  1. blue screen of death. The computer turns off, tells me to reboot and try to restart in Mode without failure.

  2. Startup Repair launches. I ran the diagnostic tool, but it has not detected any problem.

  So pretty much the problem is that WINDOWS WILL NOT BOOT. In the Startup Repair, it tells me there is no problem with anything - but it also TELLS me THAT SYSTEM RESTORE has BEEN STOP on my computer. I do not disable this feature!

  I have all my files stored on my external hard drive - however, my computer does not recognize this drive. My wireless internet, which is usually given if my computer is turned on or not, also does not work.

  I'm totally screwed? I mean, I've never used to before startup repair and it is confusing, mostly because I do not know why the system restore does not work. I CANNOT LAUNCH MODE without FAILURE or any other useful tips from Windows.

  What can I do? Help, please.

  the computer had McAfee installed as a trial when I bought it. Have since renewed - subscription is up to date, and no problems have been associated with him other than he identify some of my updates of windows as spyware.

  1 applications McAfee (and Norton) are known to not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Even on the assumption that you have purchased a subscription before the free trial period has expired, there is a good chance that "remnants" of the trial caused the version purchased, renewed not to install and work properly.

  2. the fact that the application of McAfee is supposed to be identify legitimate (assumed) updates to Windows as"spyware" is certainly the evidence to me that the application of McAfee was not "works" and therefore led to the infection of W32/Alureon rootkit you are dealing with now.

  To be clear as possible, your problems are not due to the installed KB977165 itself, they are due the KB977165 have installed on an already infected computer. [1]

  That being said, I wouldn't bother a support of opening incident now. Follow these steps, instead:

  NB: The McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled.

  Seems odd. Startup Repair should have solved the problem.

  Have you tried new reboot running?

  Give it a shot...

  Any chance that you have a "backup computer?

  Try to do a full restore of the PC.

  See how it goes...
