• Windows Update error 80070005 - most likely caused by a Windows Update Agent 3.0 installation - how to solve?

  I am running Windows 7 RTM and stupidly installed Windows Update Agent 3.0 (I forget why, it seemed a good idea at the time), but now I find that Windows Update does not work - whenever I try to check the updates, it will fail with error code 80070005

  There seems to be no way to remove the Update Agent 3.0 install, despite the restoration of the system, I just found out that it was fixed at 0% of the disc, so I don't have any version of the work system to restore! :(

  So, how can I resolve this situation, for example to delete Windows Update Agent 3.0 or otherwise restore the version of the Windows Update files I had before?

  And why it does not work anyway? Is it installed... could there be a bug? Or it is fundamentally incompatible with Windows 7 and never should be installed in the first place? In which case can someone at MS please update agent Installer to avoid that it install on Windows 7, so that no one else suffers from the same problem?

  Just came across the same thing. stumped for about an hour or two to the point where I was trying just anything. In the end I disabled
  McAfee On-Access scanner, ran the update, and it went through fine. Running Windows 7 x 64...

  -Go.

• Windows update error 80070005 and so on! New theory. Any help?

  I had this problem that seems to affect most vista users where after a short while that the packs from windows update.
  I tried ALL the solutions offered by people and like so many other users with the same problem. Nothing works.

  However, one thing I noticed when trying to find my own solution was that it lacked the library file «wuauserv.dll» I found this trying to pass on automatic updates using the services.msc run program and change the upadte properties. I had an another new error message that says "error 2: could not locate the file ' then watch popular files updated and search my hard drive for them. So I re-uploaded wuauserv.dll (whether it is one, I couldn't find) and moved to the system32 folder, where it should be. Still nothing works.
  Actually I can not yet manually launch the much worse is it connect and download updates. It seems to have given up completely. And there may be still more missing files.

  But in any case, my conclusion is that it is a problem of file misssing is not a problem of entries has already applied. It's just a case of finding the right files and resettlement.

  However, it is more complicated than it seems. I think that there should be a uninstall and reinstall option for the Windows Update program, but microsoft really seem not to care much for this problem, and he made my head for months. and my vista and laptop are only 4 months!

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Original title: Get Windows Update errors

  I have a Samsung NP350V5C-S09AU.

  I did a restore (full reset/factory setting) due to a previous issue in which I can not enter safe mode and start windows because of the failure in updating graphics driver (managed to do a complete reset via advanced startup).

  After the restoration of the system, I used SW Update to download the drivers first then checked and installed the windows updates. I ignored the prompt to reboot the PC SW update because I waited for the restart of the PC of Windows Update service prompt (that's what I before I did a restore and even managed to safely update to windows 8.1).

  After the reboot, it doesn't seem to be anything wrong (showed the usual for update and other progression). Then I reopened it SW Update again to search for any other driver updates, met a little a problem to update driver Bluetooth but has managed to install it successfully. However it does not appear to update to 2.0.0.7x 2.0.0.38 'settings', then I felt that I should just give 2.0.0.38 until I have install more updates to the window.

  Before you install any other updates, I checked windows update history and find facilities failed (error 80070490); I went and did a few things such as troubleshooting and SFC scans via admin cmd.

  Troubleshoot has trained and found "Windows Update components must be repaired" and "Find files missing or corrupted", both correction has been marked as fixed (auto-fix option). I ran out again to double check if it has been set, but even after several times, it shows the same results of these two issues have been found, but attaches.

I used troubleshoot and always found the same errors as above and ran Scan SFC, where this time it gave rise to ""Windows Resource Protection did not find any breach of integrity. "."

• Windows update error 80072EFD

  Hello
  I have a laptop of old P750 for 2 months, after they need to do a restore to a disk upward, I now get the above error.
  I then decided to do a cover of toshiba with a clean install and still get the same result of windows update is not not able to connect to the server.

  I tried everything I can find this error, including the verification of the proxy settings for WU, reset the proxy via CMD prompt settings.

  I noticed something interesting while control validation using microsoft MGA diagnostic tool, where windows has been listed as a hat, but note some reports as:

  Validation code: 0
  LegitCheckControl: N/a, hr = 0 x 80070002
  signed: n/a, hr = 0 x 80070002

  My understanding is the way to 0 x 80070002 he couldn't connect identical to WU or that files are missing.

  I have rebuilt that recommended such c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution records, turned off all firewall, removed antivirus / software malware but still no luck.

  It seems funny how the same thing happens even after a clean drive toshiba recovery.

  Any suggestions?

  However, after you follow the steps to stop services, rename the specified files, register the dll, and then finally to leave the services, I'm still having the problem.  I also ran a utility "fix" looking for issues with the Windows Update utility, it has been correctly executed and said it solved the problem, but the problem persists.  I get more a 8024, 000 of the error, but the update still does not work.

  I don't him have not yet tried this, because of the weather, but will plan no later than today:

  In safe mode, access c:\windows\ and rename C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution to SoftwareDistribution.old.
  OK and restart.

  I also tried to upgrade to the latest version of the Windows Update utility which has as well.  I can install other applications (e.g., Norton anti-virus, java, adobe flash player) without problem.

  I noticed that I have not installed ServicePack 1, I did before as I have reimagee my computer. I need to install this first?

  Anyone has any ideas, or did I miss something?

  Your help is appreciated!

  Thanks, Orrin

  I was able to find a solution to this problem.  It is a problem with the HP recovery disk image.  It does not correctly install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.

  To resolve this issue, go here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/20868/RAID-Intel-Rapid-Storage-Technology-Driver-for-Intel-Desktop-Boards

  Download and install the version appropriate for your respective operating system.  As soon as it was installed it fixed my Windows Update doesn't work not, error: 8024a 000

  Thank you
