Windows update error 80072eff
I saw trying to install the windows update with no luck. I am running XP SP3 and IE8. Everytime I try to download I get error code 80072eff. I'm under Firewall from zonelabs. I turned it off and it still didn't work. I am also running norton antivirus. I added the http//download.microsoft.com and some other sites for the trusted on IE8 site. Still no luck. Any ideas?
0x80072EFF network problems prevent connection to the Windows Update servers.
The Windows Update.log file may contain the following error messages:
Error 0x80072EFF
Error 0 x 80190193
This problem occurs if the server is busy and also you suggest you check your security software to ensure that Script blocking is not enabled.

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 80070002My 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?

I have a new Toshiba laptop, running Windows 7 (Home Premium SP1 installed by the OEM). My internet connection works fine for all sites Web except it fails when I try Windows Update. Error message code is 8024402F. I already checked 'automatically detect DNS settings' I also tried disabling my firewall (McAfee) temporarily and tried without solution. I tried dozens of times in recent days.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Hello
According to the Microsoft Knowledge Base, it has something to do with your Internet connection. Have you already checked the Microsoft Knowledge Base?
Microsoft recommends disabling the security software (antivirus and firewall) and try the troubleshooting Windows Update tool as described here:

Windows Update, error 80200010 # WindowsUpdate_dt000
The message referenced above is the error in trying to fill three 3 important updates to my computer, I received. Two 2 updates installed correctly and completely, however, one (1) does not. In chicking on icon troubleshooting he, I will put this error message "WindowsUpdate_80200010" "WindowsUpdate_dt000" What does this mean and how can I fix this error and get this update loaded on my computer.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80200010
If Windows Update error 80200010 during updates, this means that the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS), cannot access the Internet. This service is used to connect to the Windows website and download updates to your computer.
To fix this problem, make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet and check for updates again. To easily see if you are connected to the Internet, point to the network icon in the notification area and wait until you can see the status of your connection. You will see the name of your network or the service to which you are connected and the type of connection you have. If you are on a company or home network, you should see the message access: Local and Internet.
I figured Vista in this case.

Hello
I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
I downloaded the installer from the Windows Update Agent to obtain the latest Windows Update Agent. (I now c:\windows\system32\wuapi.dll version 7.3). I got the installer of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104. (http://download.windowsupdate.com/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/7.4.7600.226/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe)
When I run the installer obtained above, I get the following error:

This installer is not compatible with Windows 7?
Thank you.

Windows Update - error Code 80072F8F
Ok. So I am very anxious about my problem and after reading a lot of posts and various Microsoft support pages I have to insist that you are trying to copy and paste a generic useless solution that you throw all beginners. If you can't help, just don't post.
In any case, my last Windows successful update was August 3. The update was "Security Update for Windows 7 for x 64-based systems (KB2286198) ', and he succeeded. Since then, no main Windows settings have been changed and no software was installed. However, without apparent reason, I get the above error code (see the title of the topic) whenever I try to run Windows Update. My first instinct was to run a Google search on the error code. It produces the following two pages:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80072F8F
http://support.Microsoft.com/GP/system_maintenance_for_windows
I tried all the solutions offered by these pages, and nothing worked. My clock is well-ordered, and in sync with time.windows.com. I ran Microsoft Automated Troubleshooting Services. No dice. So I looked around on your beautiful forums here and found the following topic:
http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistawu/thread/10acefdc-297F-4D14-9f5c-5a90250a8b8c
I tried to correct the problem by trying EVERY SOLUTION UNIQUE attributed to the user who created this topic, including resettlement certificates root to update and re-registering components (Softpub.dll, etc.) as suggested. I temporarily disabled my third-party security software (ESET Smart Security 4 and Yes, that my subscription is current and all my third-party software are up to date). Windows Update is the only feature which seems to be faulty on my machine. My internet connection is fine, loads pages without penalty in Firefox and Internet Explorer. I've rebooted more times than I can count.
I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Given that you're OS software costs as much, if not more than a cheap computer in itself and I consider a problem I can't solve (because the way I am a student a graduate of computer science in the former USSR) all unacceptable. The fact that, not being not able to update the OS effectively paralyzes my laptop thousand dollars, I am naturally very irritated. Stay in place beyond 04:00 trying to solve an operating system bug is not valuable my time use, and so all productivity more is lost I can simply opt to migrate from Windows altogether. Let me know if you need more information about the configuration of my. I hope you can help, because I enjoy not having to do a full reformat.
