• Vista - Windows Update fails and defender gives the error code: 0 x 80080005

  Well, I downloaded Veoh Web Player and DivX player (with a driver package) almost the exact same time, so I don't know who caused the problem. (Guessing Veoh done.) I restored system which usually solves it for me and then uninstalled both programs and even if my computer is not nearly as slow as it was when they were both installed, it's always problems. Windows open frequently stops responding. As I said, the system restore only makes it better for a short time while longer I go without eating, the freezier my computer becomes. I also noticed that for about 2-3 days (after which my computer almost completely freezes and I have to startup repair) most minor cosmetic changes.

  I use Firefox, so the first change I noticed was that left side of the address bar in a small half circle in a regular square. Tiny. Then the scroll bars on all the programs I've used lost their Aero look and returned to normal, old style Windows. Eventually good menus click lose their new look, then all the start menu, and finally Windows Explorer stops working and all the windows, when not in use, become small tabs at the bottom of the screen. After that the computer hangs almost entirely.

  Each time I restart or system restore the first thing I see is a little box that says that a Windows host process has stopped working. Windows Update continually fails and Windows Defender gives the error code 0 x 80080005. What can I do? I looked for answers before coming here to help and what I read it looks like a downloaded driver can interfere with the host process, even if I uninstalled it (supposedly) all. Thank you.

  Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

• Windows update fails and shows code error 80070490

  Hello, I have Windows Vista Home Premium, 32-bit operating system and installed Service Pack 2.

  I set Windows to update automatically, but I noticed today that this wasn't working properly, so I clicked on "check for updates" and she came back with the following message:
  "Windows could not search for new updates, error found: Code 80070490 Windows update encountered an unknown error.

  Under the error message, it lists that the ' most recent Check for Updates "was on 11/25/2009 and"updates have been installed"on 11/25/2009.
  But when I checked "View update history" to see updates did not, all the updates that are listed have actually managed, no updates have been identified as having failed. The last update was actually - definition update for Windows Defender on 12/29/2009 - and the previous update - update for the Microsoft XML Core Service Pack 2 (KB973688) 25 / 11 / 2009.

  I had this same problem earlier this year with the code 80070490 error come when I tried to update Windows and after trying all the solutions suggest online (including the assisted Microsoft Online Support), I had to contact the Support of Tecnical Microsoft on the phone and he needed someone to help me create a completely new Windows which meant that I lost everything in my old windows.

  I don't want to go through this again, can anyone help?

  I'll give you three options then I'm outta here for the new year.

  1.

  Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

  2 uninstall SP2, and then recover (AKA repair installation) by http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958044.

  3. backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows.

• Windows updates fail, and I get a code of 80070005 error message.

  original title: Windows updates are faulty and I get a code of 80070005 error message.  I can't identify what it is.  Any help appreciated.

  This occurs with frequency more.

  Hello

  Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates.

  To resolve the problem follow the steps that are listed in the methods below in the order listed, starting with method 1.

  Method 1:

  Log the computer as an administrator or as a user with administrative rights.

  Method 2:

  One of the most common causes of this error code (access denied) is the Anti Virus and Anti Spyware software running on the computer. You can try to disable them, and then try the updates again.

  Note: run the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; Be sure to activate security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after identifying the problem.

  Method 3:

  Try to reset your default security settings.

• Updating of Windows 8 failed and remove recovery image

  I have an Asus S400c PC that I bought 4 months ago in the Microsoft store. I was getting blue screen crashes to 2 x a day for a week, then all of a sudden today my computer kept crashing. It might fall down, go on the blue screen, reboot, then after 2 minutes to hang again. The error I received was different each time.

  In the end, I decided that I would just reset to factory settings.  I pressed F9 and selected the full erase. 64% update failed, and it took me back to the F9 menu, so I tried again and this resulted in exactly the same thing. Then I went to advanced options for select manually the image of HARD drive recovery and he said that there is no image on my computer. So now it is said whenever I start up the computer from auto repair that breaks down after 1 minute and then gives me 2 options: 1) stop 2) go to advanced options.
  My laptop is not an optical drive, so I do not have the CD of Windows 8 so how I re - install windows 8? I thought they let an image on the HARD drive that you could use for the flash. I don't know what to do.

  Hello

  Please contact the Microsoft Community Forums.

  It looks like Windows 8 Refresh failed and can not recover the laptop. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  1. are you able to start the computer in safe mode?

  2. what happens if you beyond advanced options?

  As the computer becomes blue screen errors, there could be a faulty hard drive or any other hardware device.

  Method 1:

  Try to perform an audit boot from a disk of the advanced recovery option.

   
  a. repair your computer, select the troubleshooting option and select Advanced options.
  
  b. you can choose the command prompt.
  c. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER
  chkdsk /f /r X:(lettre dele de lecteur)
  d. press y when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.
  e. restart the computer.
   
  Note: when you run the disk check, there is a risk of data loss you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.
   
  Important: when running chkdsk on the drive hard if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.
   
   
   
  Method 2:
   
  You can download the. ISO of Windows 8 file on another computer, copy the files to a 3-4 GB USB key and insert it into the computer for repair/re-install.

• Windows Update: failed. __Code 643 windows Update encountered an unknown error. _ * AND * __I cannot repair Windows 7 with the disc either. My guess is: these issues are related...? __

  I have THREE questions which PEUVENT all be linked togther... What do you think?

  [I am slot as Windows 7 Ultimate (free upgrade to Dell PC w/purchase) on a Dell 64 bit PC XPS435]
  I've upgraded from Vista about 3 weeks ago.

  #1 - Two weeks ago I had a problem with the installation of Nero/LiquidTV-TiVo to my PC... (this is also when the problem started).
  To get the "Nero" thing figured out, I took the advice of someone on the Forum/Blog of Nero. The person has provided a lenghty explanation how to uninstall LiquidTV completely by removing the registry files... I don't really know what I'm doing in the registry, but everything that I helped my problem of Nero, but I couldn't tell you WHAT I deleted OR if I have deleted any bad subfolders or whatnot!... the next time I started my PC is when the NEW NUMBER is right.

  #2 - On my next BOOT, Windows Update has found an IMPORTANT update:

  A security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 for x 64 systems (KB954430)

  .. .and it fails every time, it tries to install saying this:

  Windows Update - failed

  Code 643 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

  "Get help with this error" provides little or no help... but it says this:
   "WindowsUpdate_00000643" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"
  
  All the research I did, the problem seems to be with Microsoft .NET Framework... .and all the solutions I found talking about it, "UNINSTALL all THE .NET FRAMEWORK & REINSTALL" ... I tried and there is no .NET Frameworks listed in Add/Remove, and when I press on ' VIEW INSTALLED UPDATES'... " on my PC it says, "no updates are installed on this computer"... what the _____?

  #3 - Today, I thought I would just pop the WINDOWS 7 installation disc and do a repair/upgrade... It will not be upgraded.
  He cycles most of the way through, then he Has STOPPED and says this:

  The following problems prevent upgrade Windows. Cancel the upgrade, perform each task, (it lists only a SINGLE task), and then restart the upgrade to continue.

  • Windows needs to be restarted if necessary to system files can be changed before you continue.

    Does not help restart. He tried 3 times and he ends up doing the same thing.
    Is it possible I deleted something out of the register so far here and which is cause of all this?
    If so, is it possible to fix WITHOUT doing a new install of Windows 7?
    OR... anything can be a problem... Please HELP!

    (And please note: I am a first year student college with specialization in computer science... but I just started last semester, so I don't know what I should... yet. - though, I SHOULD have known better than to mess with the registry!) My bad).

    Thanks a lot for your time in advance, and I look forward to hear from you!  VikeMike4

  You must read this entire thread and the State, if you have tried the steps listed here or that you tried to fix the problem.  Take a look at this article, because it has a solution for 643 errors: KB971187

  To run the System File Checker, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

  2. in the area of results, right-click cmd.exe, and then click Run as administrator. You will be asked to type the password for an administrator account. If you are the administrator or type the administrator password, click on continue. Then click on continue.

• The Microsoft/Windows Update errors and updates failed.

  I just had to make YET ANOTHER Destructive full restore my win Vista PC, regular and continuous errors and problems caused by who knows what and the fact that the system restore never worked once in 10 years of friggin! My PC tries to run Win' Vista (SP2) and all the new updates that are applied after SP2. I also run Norton Internet Security (fully updated). I would like to re - install Office 2007 again once more, but I'm reluctant to until I get an answer to the following problem, because whenever I have re-installed Office 2007 I get Office update errors as well. I do not yet have enough away with this recovery to even think about re - install "other apps" again. My problem is that a heck of a lot more than several updates that were 'available' over time since I bought this pc (which didn't even have SP1 on it when I bought it new), do not have more than several times. Finally, it seems that these updates failed stop appearing as 'available '. Currently failed updates are: IMPORTANT: KB974468; KB2729449; KB2742595; RECOMMENDED: Windows Live Essentails 2001. OPTIONAL: Bing Office 1.3.1. also failed (the current version is 1.3.3...).

  My concern about all these multiple failed updates is that if these updates ARE important, whereas they should, and at the very least, not failed to install the first time which must be installed with success the next time. There are at least 40 + other these updates on my pc (of all types) who failed the first time, but succeeded (according to Windows Update), the second time. After doing a search and try to install these updates above manually from the Microsoft Download Center, I got a response that these updates "are not" or "are blocked by another condition on my computer. What 'State' is probably I wonder? Makes me think anyone or whatever decide an update IS important for a particular system is wrong either (and the update is NOT important at all) and so it does not yet appear in the list of "update available", or it IS important and there is another unknown or error "NO that does NOT exist. preventing the update to be applied. I say no because maybe this unknown error also cites a number of error that is not found by the completely useless online "windows help and support!

  If an update is NOT or is no LONGER available, then why hell is he always recommended! ??? In all cases, "Windows Live Essentials 2011" settles, and looking for 'help' by selecting "get help with this error" I am taken to the "windows help and support" line (which doesn't help at all). That's because this 'aid' shows only 26 'results' and NONE of them include error numbers (800706... and two instances of 66A) city. ANY help will be VERY much appreciated (epecially on the part of MVP, who have been a great help in the past) cordially Andy Bob :) :) :) :)

  Let's start from the beginning.

  Lets first see what happened with your drive.

  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   

  change c:\bootex.log

   
  What is this file exist with something in it?
   
  The following commands query the event logs.
   
  To start verification by using the name of the source for any version of Windows (because it varies).
   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "Autocheck" or sourcename = 'Winlogon' or sourcename = "WinInit") get format:HForm

   
  To run chkdsk in Windows.
   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "Chkdsk") to / format: HForm

   
  For warnings about disk problems detected during normal operations and automatic repairs by Windows at the time where the problems were discovered.

   

  WMIC /append:"%userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html" PATH Win32_NTLogEvent where (sourcename = "NTFS" or Sourcename = 'Disc') to / format: HForm

   
  Then to view the created file.
   

  Start "" "% userprofile%\desktop\DiskEvents.html"

   

  Copy and paste it here. Again run the commands again after doing the below.

  Then to test the equipment.

  Standard hardware troubleshooting
   
   
  First to test we can the material. Material defects can appear as many software defects, that's why we need to test the material first...

   

  Follow these steps in order. Defects of memory can cause disk corruption, disk failures can cause corruption of the disk. Damaged disc causes corrupted files (which SFC may be able to fix). If you get a stop error and after return. Do not run chkdsk with faulty memory.

   
  Diagnosis of memory

  If you have not run a diagnosis of memory, please do. Click on Start - Control Panel - choose Classic view in the left pane - choose Administrative Tools - then memory diagnostic tool.

   

  S.M.A.R.T
  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   
  Disk in Windows drives monitor for impending failure. The function is called S.M.A.R.T. It detects an imminent failure, 30% of the time. In a type elevated command prompt (it's a single line)
   
  WMIC PATH MSStorageDriver_FailurePredictStatus /namespace:\\root\wmi get active, predictfailure, reason List

   

  If it is on will be true, otherwise on enable in the BIOS of the computer.

   

  Predict the failure must be False if everything is ok.

   

  In Vista and later if SMART failure predicted Windows prompts the user to run the backup.
   
  Run chkdsk

  In computer all your drives right click and choose Properties, then the Tools tab, and then click check now. Check the TWO boxes and then start. Reset. This will take from one day to the next.
   
  SFC
  Check the alteration of the file by clicking on Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   
  sfc/scannow
   
  Heat
  Heat can lead to problems of this kind, and sudden restarts without crashing. Make sure that your fans are not clogged with dust.
   
  For memory diagnostic results
  Click on Start - Control Panel (and select Classic view in the left pane), select Administrative Tools and then Event Viewer , and then look in the event (Local) - Applications and Services - Microsoft - Windows - MemoryDiagnostic-results Viewer entered.

   

  Look for EventID is 1201 or 1101 and Source is MemoryDiagnostic-results

   
  Double-click the entry for more details on this entry.
  
  For results of Chkdsk
   
  You can ignore this if you performed the first series of commands again.
   
  Click on Start - Control Panel (and select Classic view in the left pane) choose Administrative Tools and then Event Viewer , and then look at the Application and the System will connect (under Windows logs) for entries.

   

  Look for EventID is 7 and Source disk
  Look for EventID is 11 and the Source disk
  Look for EventID is 50 , and the Source is disk
  Look for EventID is 51 and Source disk
  Look for EventID is 52 and Source disk
  
  Look for EventID 55 and Source is NTFS
  Look for EventID is 130 and Source is NTFS
  Look for EventID is 134 and Source is NTFS
  Look for EventID is 137 and Source is NTFS
  Look for EventID 1001 and Source is Autochk
  Look for EventID 1001 and Source is Winlogon
  Look for EventID 1001 and Source is WinInit
  Look for EventID 1001 and Source is Chkdsk
  Look for EventID is 26212 and Source is Chkdsk
  Look for EventID 26213 and Source is Chkdsk
  
  Look for EventID 26214 and Source is Chkdsk
  Double-click the entry for more details on this entry.
   
  PS 7 and 55 are auto repair codes where windows repair disk errors silently on the fly. 52 is the SMART warning.
   
  If the results are transferred to the startup time events logs chkdsk, then the results are probably in the following file c:\Bootex.log. This file is removed when the results are placed in the event logs.
   
  For the results of the SFC
  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   

  findstr/c: "[SR] cannot" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log|more "

   

  It will be able to see which files are corrupted.

   

  To see if there

   

  findstr/c: "[SR] repair" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log|more

   

  There are often false positives for small text files that Windows uses like settings.ini and desktop.ini. Ignore these.

   

   

  You say that you have had continuous problems. But if you want to jump the gun to fire a bit.

   

  More details about the error

  To decode 0 x 80070002. X 0 means that it is a hexadecimal number, 8 , error, the first 7 means it a windows error and the rest of Eastern 2, the number, the Windows error.

   

  To search for the error message we need to decimal format. Start the Calculator (Start - All Programs - Accessories - calculator) and choose the menu display - scientific, then the menu display - Hex. Enter 2 Menu display - decimal. It will say 2.

   

  Start an command prompt (Start - All Programs - Accessories - command prompt) and type

   

  net helpmsg 2

   

  and it will say

   

  The system cannot find the specified file.

   

  Use Notepad to search for FATAL and and the specific error code (for example, 80070002) in C:\Windows\Windowsupdate.log.

   

  Windows errors (smallish numbers) and COM HRESULT values (in general, but with exceptions, start with an 8 as 0 x 80040154) are defined in WinError.h, except 8007nnnn where you are looking for the error Window number it contains.

   

  As a general rule, Windows errors are less than 65 535 (0xFFFF). Errors from 0 x 80000001 are HResults Component Object Model (COM). Errors from 0 xC0000001 NTStatus results.

   

  NTStatus errors (usually, but not always to start with a C as 0xC0000022) are defined in NTStatus.h.

   

  the .h files are the best source because it includes the symbolic name of the error that can give clues such as the source of the error
  . FormatMessage does not have the symbolic name as the description.

  Original title:

  Windows update fails to install KB2656368 and KB2686827

  I am running Vista Home Premium.  Windows update fails to install KB2656368 and KB2686827.  Download error code641 which seems to mean that Windows cannot identify the problem.  In the past, it was caused because the installer has been damaged.  In setting the Microsoft Support took control of my computer; Download a new installer and solved the problem.  However, it seems that there is no way of contacting Microsoft Support for them to fix the installation program.  The installation program be fixed right now.  Moreover, the tool "Fixit" said that everything is fine.

  Microsoft paid $99 for the support.  Tech uploaded a new installer.  Problem solved!

  Still wondering why the question about System Mechanic?

  I find it peculiar that you just bought a HP computer brand new, still-in-the-box, which came with Windows 8, not 8.1, preinstalled Windows. That said, cross your fingers, roll up your sleeves and try the fix following multiple step, I cooked up just for your computer...

  ACTIONS

  [You may want to print these instructions for reference offline.  IMPORTANT => NO SKIP & perform all steps in one uninterrupted session!  [If a step said to restart, restart! ]

  1 right-click on the link, select SAVE TARGET as.... & download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above and select run as administrator to run the Norton utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4. right-click on the following link and save the download to your desktop: ie8 - rereg.all.zip [1]

  4B. right click on the file that you saved in # 4 has & select EXTRACT ALL. This will create a new folder in Office also appointed ie8 - rereg.all. The folder contains both scripts below (plus a third that will NOT be).

  Note-online scripts are good for IE9, IE10 & IE11, too,

  5. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the task bar), open the folder created in step # 4 b above & double-click on the file named ie8 - rereg.32on64.cmd to run the script.

  5 b. Repeat this for the file named ie8 - rereg.64on64.cmd then restart.

  6. reset Internet Explorer by the MANUAL of instructions on this page-online http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737

  Note => for best results, check the option Remove personal settings .

  7 run the Windows Update Troubleshooter from start to finish by the first paragraph on this page-online http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/troubleshoot-problems-installing-updates [2]

  8. restart once more then test by launching a manual check of updates & see if KB2887069 any/all others updated and allows to install now. Follow all the instructions.

  9. assuming all went well, see if Windows 8.1 is available through the store Windows and, if so, if it will be properly installed. Still, follow all the instructions.

11. in response to this post with a status report. Also confirm (hopefully) that Windows 8.1 has been installed successfully.

Good luck!
