Windows update fails - the file specifies some updates not installed - 9 updates failed, code 80073712 and code 78(f).
The update runs, and then told me that updates failed to install update automatik research, I had more failed updates that havew installed correctly.

Hi Ben Dean,

Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file.

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.

3. at the command prompt, type Sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

For more information, see the following Microsoft article:

    You can delete all. TMP using Disk Cleanup http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Delete-files-using-Disk-Cleanupfiles.  Of course, it won't delete those in use (not more), so, be sure you have not all open programs using temporary files, if you want to get everything.  The best way to do it is to do the cleanup right after the startup of the system.  The problem with OneCare is that it doesn't give you the option to choose the files you want to delete (as fair. TMP files) - she does everything that it considers unnecessary - and it can take hours to complete because of the antivirus and anti-spyware scans it includes (which can be excluded and drastically reduce the time but it is difficult to resist doing the chore together once you're already there and ready to do maintenance work).

    While you're there, you should consider to optimize your system with http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Optimize-Windows-Vista-for-better-performance.

    I have windows vista and when I try to install update KB968930, I get the Windows Update error code 8E5E0147. Nothing seems to fix this error. Any suggestions?

    Hello

    There could be various reasons for the updates to fail. No matter what security software installed on the computer may crash or services related to the programs installed on the computer. Also if there are corruptions in the files\folders related to Windows updates.

    Reset update components would actually try fixing the part of corruption by recreating these files and also to re-register the files necessary .dll (Dynamic Link Library).

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/968930

    Some users corrected this problem by resetting the components of windows updates. Try these steps and check the result.

    Temporary disable the firewall/security settings and check if it makes a difference.
