• 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?

  Hello

  Basically, you have a firewall blocking updates. Stop or uninstall Norton, using their removal tool and
  Try updates.

  Download - Save - go to where you put it - right click on – run as administrator

  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.

• Windows update error: 0 x 80240036, the page cannot be displawed.

  The same multibordure error in Microsoft update as well. I've reformatted HD and re-installed Windows XP to the original settings. Now I can't update any software!

  You must be at Service Pack 3 level before you can use Windows updates.

  To determine which service pack is currently installed on your computer, follow these steps:

  1. Click Startand then click run.
  2. Copy and paste, or type the following command, and then click OK:
     winver

     A dialog box displays the version of Windows and the service pack that is currently installed on your computer.

  If you haven't already done so, you will need to install the SP2 and SP3 (SP1 note no longer exists).

• 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:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80070490
  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.
