Hello

You should not have two large even antivirus programs on the same computer, much less running. Then
You must uninstall AVG, or McAfee. Please use the removal tool for the one that you want to uninstall.
If you just uninstall it without the removal tool, they will leave problem causing remains.

Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click-RUN AS ADMIN-restart when full.

AVG Remover Tool (avgremover.exe; avgremoverx64.exe)
http://www.Avg.com/us-en/download-tools

McAfee removal tool

SuperAntiSpyware could have a role as well, it loads several pieces memory-resident.

  • 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?

  • Windows update error 80070490 - other corrections code do not work.

    I have 9 updates, that I need to install it and I get the error code 80070490.

    I did the following to try to address everything with no luck...
    (1) tried a system restore. Unfortunately this update has been tried and failed several times during the last few days, and each time it is automatically a restore point. So now I have no more old that won to restore restore points.
    2.) have tried updating system as indicated here preparation tool:
    Rebooted and still have the problem.
    2.) attempt to perform a repair with my Vista Ultimate DVD installation as described here:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80070490
    The problem is that I can't choose 'upgrade '. It is grayed out. The reason for this is that I can't upgrade to a version older than what I'm running now. My DVD is SP1 and I have since upgraded to SP2. I keep seeing this recommendation and it will not work for me.
    (3.) I deleted the "Software Distribution" folder and reinstalled the WindowsUpdateAgent.
    4.), I tried to use the Mr FixIt. It does not find that there is a problem with the windows update and then it tries to fix it. It runs corrections and says that it has attached to them. But when I close and re - run, problems are found and 'fixed' again. I have been through multiple cycles of Mr FixIt, restart, update, error, fixit, etc.. I also tried the fixit several times back to back running. Whenever he finds the problem, says it is fixed, but then when re-ran he finds the problem, said again and again this is corrected.
    This all started after uninstalling several pieces of software by using the control panel. I emptied several unused programs and uninstalled AVG Antivirus. Not sure if this is related or not, since that was a few days after uninstalling before I saw for the first time this error.
    I'm still having the problem.
    If you could point me kindly to specific files that need to be extracted for this error I would really appreciate it.

    I managed to solve this problem on my own. It turned out to be something with the above Japanese language pack. I uninstalled it and everything updated correctly. I thought I'd pass just in case someone else has the same problem.

    Specifications:
    error code 80244016
    error 8024401A
    Windows 7 Professional 64 x
    I can't be different 2 updated due to errors.
    When my computer automatically detects updates and I try to download, it just stop downloading at halfway and gives me error 80244016. I tried with my firewall off , but I got the same result. If I am looking for updates on the microsoft download area, I can download and install manually without problem.
    If I try to search for updates and click "Find updates" in the "Windows Update" manually I always get the error 8024401 A. I tried with my firewall off , but I got the same result. But when windows update search updates itself it will find new updates without problem (I won't be able to download and install though, see above).
    I had this problem for about a month now, before that I could update my computer with no problems at all.
    I use Windows 7 Professional 64 x.
    Please help me because it is difficult for me to find every update manually via the Microsoft Download Center site.

    Stands in my last answer. If the automatic updates does not work, Windows does not work.

    I tried to install, and the computer tries repeatedly to install these updates, but not luck!  The security of Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP and update for microsoft Silverlight, it lasts for months now!

    * original title - 663 error and error 64 c... This lasts for a few months now and can never get facilities to work... *.

    Hello Tina Storle,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    3. What is the number KB for updates failed?

    4. are you able to install some other updates on the computer?

    I suggest that you manually download and install updates, check if it works.

    View update history to know which update is not installing.

    (a) open Windows Update by clicking Start , all programsand then click Windows Update.

    (b) in the left pane, click view update history.

    (c) to view more information about an update, double-click it.

    Once you know the update's KB number then visit the Microsoft Download and put the number in the search box, download and install the update manually.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx

    If the previous step fails, then see the below article to Microsoft for repair. NETFramework on the computer and check if it works.

    When you try to install an update for .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5, you may receive Windows Update '0 x 643' error code or error code Windows install "1603".

  • Windows Update error 80072EFD. No. MS solutions work. Cannot download anything MS Download Center.

    I tried to use windows update. Gave me an error code. I tried to use alll the troubleshooting on the microsoft site. nothing seems to work. I disabled anti viruse software, firewalls. My goal is to get the update, so I can get .NET framework and XNA 3.0 Redistributable to work. I've tried manual install for those, but they become download update of this time-out after 5 tries and give up.

    When I go to the Download Center, click download links, the pages go dead.

    It's like something on my computer is BLOCKING everything Microsoft.

    EDIT: I don't know why he put that in windows 7, but its for windows vista.

    Sorry, but I have nothing to add here, except for...

  • 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.
