Windows Update causing various problem on the computer

• 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.

  Product ID: {removed privacy}

  Description of the problem: same problem on the computer desktop and laptop at the same time began: cannot install Windows updates (has no status)

  No hardware changes or software recently made to the system: I followed the usual procedure to install Windows updates.

  Method of connection: wireless

  Technical expertise: intermediate level

  Performed troubleshooting: because the error # 80071 A 90 type indicated by the system, I followed the instructions of Windows Help and Support, for example to run Microsoft Fix it which did not work; a more advanced method has also been used, who recommended to start Windows Update in Mode safe, then open Windows Update and install the updates and then restart normally. At this point, the problem was that any stage of Windows Update was available.

  Hello amib004,

  As much as I know, only Windows Update cannot be run in safe mode. That being said, I saw where install several updates may conflict with each other. Try to disable all updates installation and install the updates failed one at a time.

• Windows Update crashes trying to check the computer

  Windows XP Professional x 86 with all important updates

  Running as an administrator

  When I try to go to Windows Update, I get a message saying that an ActiveX control must be installed to save your computer.  (The machine worked for awhile and used Windows Update.)  I click OK and then get a popup error message:

  ---------------------------
  IEXPLORE. EXE - Application error
  ---------------------------
  The instruction at "0x04fe0068" referenced memory at "0x04fe0068". The memory could not be "written".

  Click OK to terminate the program
  Click on CANCEL to debug the program
  ---------------------------
  OK Cancel
  ---------------------------

  I tried several times and has continued to get the same sequence, so I said finally allow to do anything be installed from Microsoft.  Now if I try to go to Windows Update I got the same message appears on the installation of an ActiveX control, but do not receive the request to install it and IE 8 seems to hang or stand the memory error message.

  How to do this?

  Method 1 - has not found anything to fix

  Method 2 - stage 1 - did not help

  Method 2 - step 2 - could not find the validation ActiveX control

  Method 3 - does not - problem was with validation

  I also tried Mode safe mode with networking.  The control seems to settle and the website says: I have been validated.  However, if I tried to do anything whatsoever (Express, Custom, updates of the list, etc.) he says that the web page has encountered an error.

  I rebooted and tried again.  Yet once, I invited myself to install the ActiveX control.  I left the guest sitting there and a little while IE later throw the same memory access error.  It was not the installation of the control which was not - it is an asynchronous with process.

  Then I disabled all add-ins closed IE and has been able to use Windows Update.

  Add-ins that I disabled were:

  Name search
  Publisher Microsoft Corporation
  Status disabled
  File date Thursday, April 19, 2007, 14:10
  Version 11.0.8164.0

  Discuss name

  Status disabled
  Version 6.0.2900.5921

  It is a relatively clean system because it's just to run legacy applications.  I don't remember installing add-ins that do not specify an editor.

  In any case by disabling all the cured the problem.

  Edit:

  I've activated all EHF supplements I had disabled and closed IE.  I was always able to access Windows Update.

• My time will not be updated, causing various problems on all kinds of things on my computer.

  It began with my time do not update automatically. When I go to the tab "internet time" to connect and update, he needs an administrator to fix it and even though I am the administrator, it won't let me, but that's another issue all together. I have fixed this before going to msconfig comand prompt and then cancellation of the registration on the server time and re-registration. This fixed for about a month, but his pass yet. I've updated to implement everything and searched tons of forums and convenience stores without getting an answer I've already tried. Help, please! I'm very limited in what I can do because of this.

  Wow, the loss of time

• Default configuration restoration changes Windows updates do not turn off the computer

  Step 1 of the 'solution' to this error reads:

  Drag from the upper right of the screen (or if you use a mouse, move the mouse to the upper right of the screen) and then tap or click settings.

  It is impossible to do this step 1 because my computer never stops display failure message to offer a mouse or interactivity, whether... it is in an infinite loop of failure with no way to stop.  Same way as fail-safe after power reset does not work.  There is nothing I can do at all.

  You will then need to repair your computer using a recovery disc or installation media.

  Boot from the media(Instructions are here)

  and then select repair your computer in the first screen that says install now:

  Then follow option 7:

  Then troubleshoot > open command prompt, and then type the following:

• Fix for common problems associated with Windows Update repeatedly trying to solve the same problem

  When the machine running Windows Update on a Windows XP Professional (SP3 with IE8), the information for the download of the ActiveX bar does not appear. Tried to run the Fix for "Common problems with Windows Update" and it says "Windows Update components must be repaired. Difficulty-it short, reports of success, "Found Themes" saying "one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly". However, still unable to download updates from the information bar does not appear. Repeating the difficulty happens with exactly the same problem i.e. reports etc. but no success still can not download the ActiveX on Windows Update since the information bar never shows up.

  At tried all the suggested solutions I can find for the reported similar problems such as checking the downloads ActiveX security settings, reset Internet Explorer settings, and even resetting Windows Update (Articlce ID 971058) components. Still no luck. Therefore, I am unable to manually check and download updates of Windows security.

  Otherwise my PC works well. Norton Internet Security is installed but did not prevent Windows Update to work on another PC I have. The information bar appears sometimes for other downloads, and it doesn't seem to be a problem on the Windows Update page.

  Please can you help. Thank you.

  No, I'm not not first uninstall IE8 (or IE7) before proceeding with the repair facility...

  Long history, technical, short version: do not uninstall IE8 (and/or IE7) before doing a repair installation (Windows XP only!) leaves the two Internet Explorer and Windows in a State of "confused" or "broken". Your only recourse now is a clean install of Windows (after backup your personal data).

  No, another repair facility won't solve the problem - even if you uninstall IE8 beforehand.

  Follow the instructions in this post of mine in another forum (to-the-letter & in order! ) to restore your computer to a State safe & functional: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=44636

  If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system

  Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  Wish I had better news for you.  Good luck!

  PS: So that registry cleaners can solve some problems (temporarily, at least), they are not & cannot fix what caused the problem. Compare to treat a broken leg with a stick and a couple of BandAids.

• Last updated on Windows 7 cause "Crash Dump" on my computer.

  Last updated on Windows 7 cause "Crash Dump" on my computer. Watch journal update KB2264107 and KB2454826 will not settle. I do a system restore to get back. I tried the "auto update" three times.

  
  KB2454826 was fired shortly after its initial release, January 11, 2011. Revised (for example, fixed) versions of KB2454826 have been re-published February 8, 2011.

  NB: KB2454826 is an update Important/recommended, it's always an option, not the security update (from this edition). That being said, we now know that KB2454826 is a prerequisite for the update for IE9. As it will probably be a prerequisite update for SP1 of Win7, too, you probably don't want to hide.
  

  KB2264107 is an option, not the security update. Feel free to hide it.

  Hi Sandra,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?

  I understand that you can not install some updates with the error message "failure of configuration of the Windows updates...". ». I can imagine the disadvantages suffered by you and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem.

  First place, according to the error message, I suggest you to try the steps in the following article and check if it helps.

  "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

  Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  
  

  The question may arise if the Windows downloaded update packages are corrupt. So, if you are able to boot to the desktop with the help of the above article, I also suggest you try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Try to run that Windows update utility provided in the following link.

  Problems with installing updates

  Try to install the updates after running the troubleshooter.

  If the problem persists, try the following method.

  Method 2:

  I suggest you to use Deployment Image Servicing and Management to fix Windows Update errors.

  (a) open an elevated command prompt. To do this, press the Windows key + Q and type in CMD right click on command prompt in the list and select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  (b) type the following commands. Press enter after each command

  • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
  • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

  (c) close the command prompt, and then run Windows Update again.

  Check if the problem persists.

  Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

• "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

  Original title: problems with updates

  I tried to install windows updates since the store won't let me update to 8.1 otherwise, but I've been miserably lacking 4 days in a row now. Commissioning Windows Update in Control Panel or the charm of parameters found 133 available updates and informs me that they will install automatically. If I then try to install progress remains at "downloading 0 KB", after a while updates are shown as installation. When the installation is completed I'm prompted to restart my pc. After the reboot if I'm greeted by the "Failure configuring Windows updates" screen for about an hour, then I'm able to reconnect to the desktop computer. I've been searching the forums for similar problems looking for an answer and trying different solutions, such as:

  Stop the update service then renaming or deleting the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution. No positive results on this one.

  Using SFC and DISM, first came up with my system is clean, the second did find and fix corrupt elements of store, but the problem persists.

  Download the tool for troubleshooting Windows Update from Microsoft page, who reported finding and repairing problens with service, but again without success.

  Reduce the installed updates at a time, in the instance that Windows can't handle most of the many updates at the same time. I tried this and it seemed to go well, but a strange point of interest that is so annoying is that several edits I checked are installing somehow, even if it is the only example that shows the number of updates being installed before restarting. Yet I always comes to the same conclusion. Failure of Windows updates the screen. What should I do?
