Windows Update fails to install KB974234 and returns the error code 80070641

Previous issues with the installation of the updates or with those who just do not had are released on 11/10, but cannot install KB974234 (published on 10/13).  Update returns the error code 80070641.

I am running Vista Home Premium with Office 2007 SP2.  Diagnostics Office finds no problem.

Following further discussions, I have (among other attempts): stopped the Service Windows Installer (returns this message "the Windows Installer service is not started"), tried the Patch Registration Cleanup Tool (wouldn't not - said "a productcode must be determined"), downloaded manually updated.

Any help would be appreciated!

    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?

    Hi William_AZ,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. You are able to install some other updates on the computer?
    3. You have security software installed on the computer?

    The error 1601 occurs generally if the Setup program cannot access the Windows service installed on the computer, refer to the article below and try the steps mentioned, check if it helps.

    Error message when you try to add or remove a program on a computer that is running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003: "the Windows Installer service is not to be accessible.

  • Windows update fails on XP Pro SP3 with 0x8007F064 error code.

    Windows update fails repeatedly on XP Pro SP3 with 0x8007F064 error code:

    Update security for Windows XP (KB2661637)
    A security update cumulative for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP (KB2647516)

    Update works fine until yesterday. Microsoft tool ran (no change), reloaded Windows Update (no change), a tool for malware own virus check comes to nothing. Any ideas?

    Since it is a Dell computer, chances are a Norton or McAfee free trial is preinstalled. When you have done the clean install, the free trialware would have ALSO reinstalled (but not valid now).  Let's see if the execution of two removal tools & a few tweaks resolves the behavior.

    [You can print these instructions for reference offline. [If a step said to restart, restart! ]

    1. click right on the following link to download the Norton removal tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    1B. right click on the following link to download the tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

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

    3. double-click on the file that you saved in # 1 a above, to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    3. double-click the file that you saved in # 1 b above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then reboot again.

    If you return to check the out parameter #1 above, it'll be "Use my current..." "but now it's going to be"point"to IE so that you don't need to change anything or reset. [Think of it.]

    5. now check your settings here: IE tools | Internet Options | Programs | Default web browser: If the make default button is NOT dimmed, click/press it.

    6. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

    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.

    Hello

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to disable all security software, including the Windows Firewall and then check if it solves the problem.

    Check out the link to disable the security software.

    Disable the anti-virus software

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Enable or disable Windows Firewall

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished.

  • Microsoft Management Console error: this function is not supported on this system. Also noticed that the automatic updates did not install it and returned error 80070005.

    Original title: Microsoft Management Console this feature only is not supported on this system

    I am running Vista 32 bit Business since an administrator account.

    Recently, I noticed that the automatic updates did not install it and returned error 80070005.   After investigation, I found that I could not open mmc at all and always get the message "this function no is not supported on this system.  No major changes have been made to the configuration to trigger it and I can't watch the event log because it is in the MMC.
    I have studied this question in line and tool the following actions, which none worked:
    carried out a complete antivirus scan (I use Commodo internet security)
    created another account administrator
    has run SFC (no problem)
    has run the registry cleaner (no problem)
    has run msconfig.exe and disabled all the startup process
    updated windows right click and run as administrator
    Started in safe mode and tried all above
    After that, I don't know where to go... it doesn't seem to be a download for Windows vista to reinstall mmc.
    I have about 50 updates critical, sitting in my windows update that can not install because of this problem.  Can anyone help?

    Hello Helpmehelpme,

    First, I would check since it is professional Vista was that computer on a field of work or it was already on an area of work? There may be group policies that are in place that prevent to run MMC.

    When did start to happening? Is there anything new on the system which has been introduced into the environment (software, hardware)?

    This thread gives a few steps trying to the original poster that you can't have.
