  Windows Update error 0 x 80070490 (2014-02-10-t-11_25_11A) - fixed

  I have been through ALL the steps as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949358. I have had no success.
  One thing that bothers me, is in the configuration of the system, I have a service called true vector Internet Monitor (Zone Alarm) and when the value disable as in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135, it is the only service still running when you perform a clean restart. I don't know if this affects the Automatic Updates/configuration or not.

  Hello

  Thanks for trying to help. Now my computer seems to be up-to-date.
  I followed your steps but MicrosoftFixit50202.msi did not like "my OS is incompatible. I use windows 8.  I couldn't run this in default or aggressive.
  I did go in Control Panel and disable antivirus and firewall Zone Alarm and reset Windows defender by default.
  I did IE default web browser I have prob changed when I got to the computer.
  I then returned to set up a clean boot and this time I managed to disable the true vector Internet Monitor (Zone Alarm) to run.
  I ran the reset troubleshooting of Windows with the same result as before is to say:
  Recent updates - not fixed installation problems
  Search for missing or corrupted - files detected
  I think I have restarted my computer at this stage and then tried to update again.
  It has not yet, but with the error, I got an error code and a link to help. I don't have not noticed this before. I followed the help and ran about 5 command prompts that have to do with the renaming of files I think.
  Then I tried updating again and this time 38 45 updates succeeded. I then ran the update again and it seemed to work on the other 7 updates.
  Although Windows Update said I was now updated, I was skeptical as when this whole thing started is started when I got the "windows installs updates" and then "failed to configure updates. Returning... etc"then I restarted my computer. At the start, there was no message on try to configure the updates, then, how do I know they are configured and working as it should?
  Thank you.

• Creative cloud updates / Files folder location change Bug

  I have a major bone to pick with the CC app. Software updates work very well. This is the real CC app updates which are originally my company a LOT of grief and the loss of time/productivity/money.main computer that is hosting the shared files using an external hard drive (S) to save all files on. Whenever there is an update to the CC app required it corrects everything BUT change the location of the files in the Preferences menu to the default drive (C). This caues all other computers that are related to re - sync ALL the files. On average, it's about 14 000 files which lasts about 10-19 hours depending on the computer and the internet connection.

  This has happened at least twice now. I can't be the only person it happened and it's unacceptable. I found a few messages in the forum, but there are no answers from anyone at Adobe.

  My questions are

  1. is there a way to avoid preferences him swinging back the location of the files on the default drive after an update?
  2. a development team seeks to this question at all so that it can be fixed on a future update?

  With the recent update of the application of Creative Cloud Desktop (1.9.1.474), we have unfortunately introduced a bug that causes the creation of a new Creative Cloud Files folder and re-synchronization of all content. This will happen only the first time that the synchronization application runs after the update. This caused an understandable pain and confusion, for which we really apologize.

  Creative application Cloud Files contains a logic that supports the use of several Adobe ID. This allows to disconnect from an ID and in, but keeps the contents of your separate creative cloud. When you sign out and change identifiers, the app moves the previous creative Cloud Files folder and it's content and he adds with the already signed in ID (User@AdobeID). Then, it creates a main folder and begins to synchronize the content of the identification of new.

  The bug I mentioned earlier occurs, as the app believes an ID selector took place and as such, moves the current record of Creative Cloud Files and attempts to annex the already signed in ID. As no switch actually took place, it manifests as (unknown).  The application then creates a main folder to synchronize the data.

  What you end up with is essentially a creative Cloud Files folder with your new synchronized data and a creative Cloud Files (unknown) folder that contains duplicate data.

  This happens once, after the last update.

  The solution is to simply delete the (unknown) Creative Cloud Files folder.

  I recommend that ensure you that you have no pending change you can do offline and you check the contents of the folder new, main designer Cloud Files contains everything you expect of him.  If this is not the case, check the contents of the creative Cloud files (unknown).

  If there is still an incompatibility with your data, you can check on creative.adobe.com to confirm that your data is there.

• How can I fix error "changed default location for Windows Update files" that Fit-It notes several times, but does not solve?

  Using Windows XP Home Edition SP3, IE8, and Firefox 13.

  Used several times to install and MS Fit-It tool to try to fix Windows Update so that will download the updates of high priority.  4 four security updates not always settle.  Fix - It tool shows that "one or more Windows Update are configured incorrectly" and that it has been fixed (run 10 times).  He also pointed out "where Windows Update stores data has changed and needs to be repaired", but offers no solutions to fix this problem.  Cannot find any reference to this in the KB or MS answers.

  Is it possible to repair this problem and it will make a difference by allowing for installing security updates?  I talked to Ms. telephone and e-mail do not install security updates, but they say I have to pay $99 to get this issue fixed MS Update.  I thought I read that security patches are supposed to be supported without charge.

  Any new advice or techniques for solving this would be appreciated.

• Windows updates files are missing

  I tried to download & install a new anti-virus program, said that the operating system could not be updated. The files required to use windows update are longer registered or installed on my computer. Can anyone provide assistance? Thank you.

  Hi redcamaro,

  ·         You get the error message?

  ·         What security software do you use?

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

  Note: 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. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

• Thos all Windows Update files

  Do I have to keep all files with similar names to the "$NtUninstallKB971633_0$" are in my Windows folder.  I have a storage problem, and there are nearly 350 of them.

• 910219. how to download and keep the Windows Update files?

  Hello

  What is the ideal way to update Windows? now, Windows downloads the selected updates. where? I do not know! and after their installation, it removes the packages for installation on my computer. This causes the downloaded updates are lost, and I can't use them to similar machines that need to install the same updates. for these machines, I have to download updates again! This causes my internet to be charged again while it is not really necessary.

  the ideal way, in my view, is that I can specify a folder for the Windows Update service. It can use a default folder for that also. After selecting the updates, I want to install in my system, it checks to see if the update is already existing in the folder. only if NOT it downloads. then after downloading it maintains the package in the same folder after installing. installation should be done automatically as it is done now. Then I can move the folder to another machine. in the second machine, I also choose the update I want to be installed which are mostly the same as the first machine. for example, Windows Update only consumes my internet traffic for updates that are not yet downloaded. I wonder why Windows Update doesn't currently work the same way?

  by this method, I can at least use the consumption of traffic and I can access the latest updates with the easier and faster way. I I would like to choose a memory flash for this purpose and keep the folder inside.

  is there a way to achieve this?

• Windows Update fails, "returning changes" hangs forever

  I seem to have bricked just computer from a friend, unless someone has an idea what to do.  This morning, I got it innocently install 108 updates.  Towards the end of this afternoon she called me to say that the computer had asked to be restarted to complete the update, and it did.  When it restarted, he began the configuration, and then failed.  He said it was back of changes, only not to turn it off and then just hung there for 5 hours.  I came to watch once again, rebooted, it (Yes, I thought was not any returning at this point), I tried booting in safe mode, but it's always the same thing - try to install an update, fails and says that this recovery changes everything as before and then it just hangs.

  I tried the system restore on three different restore points, which always goes down with a 0x800700b7 error code.  I can reboot into safe mode command prompt, but then what to do?  The computer does not restart normally.  I looked at a few threads here, but everything seems to be doing an update failed to succeed - in Windows.  I can't get into Windows.  I can't do anything but try the safe mode or watch the blue screen that says that it is.  Please - what can I do?  Other than reinstall Windows and start over (and she needs to be able to save about 400 GB of files before I can do it - so I don't want to do).  Thanks for any help you can provide

  Software don't not brick a PC.  At worst, you need to back up files, run of the mill recovery or make the superior Clean reinstall Windows 7 that if it has not been done before would be a big improvement since it seems that the OS is corrupt anyway.

  In Safe Mode, type services.msc in start search, disable the Windows Update agent.  Make it work for a while with a few reboots, then turn it back on and set to Windows Update "Check for Updates but let me decide which install."  Install the updates in small groups and if necessary use the Restore Point it creates.

  I think due to problems with the restoration of the system which should be the net of security here, I would first run the scans of the infection, SFC and if necessary a repair of steps in troubleshooting for Windows 7 installation to check during the installation.

• Satellite L850-1HP not configure downloaded Windows Update files

  My laptop was having problems on the first day that first the CD-ROM not open, then the webcam and the microphone switch off forever and can not be turned on again never and finally, this summer, my computer laptop would not connect to any WIFI network at all, it will still fail.

  I went to the place where I bought it for support, they sent for repairs, a week later, I'll be back, it is restored back to factory settings, all seemed well, CD ROM functional... Webcam and microphone too.

  So I thought I would check around and start things tyding for my taste, and then I realize that I need to download updates from Windows Update, so I do it, on 100 + updates, I start to download, but they do not download until the 20th minute that it is stuck at 0% What seemed fishy to me, because then he just jumped up to 10% and progressed forward.

  After downloading the updates, or so he said she had, I restart the laptop in to get their working and configured properly.

  There can be no. After I clicked on restart, it began to close, saying it is to configure and to 20-30%, it restarts, and then he charged to the top of the screen, even saying that he configures updates, then he said that he failed and said it restore the data back to normal, that he never scare made.

  After about two hours of waiting so he could do nothing at all, I restart the PC, the same thing.

  Restart again but this time I restore things settings once more, takes me about 1 hour with a full erase of the data (of course the rest of the OS and toshiba apps too) all implemented naming stuff, and accept the terms and conditions, blah blah, operating system starts, I check everything and restart.

  After the reboot, I decide not to configure anything until I downloaded all the windows updates, so I do just that, BUT I get the same error again, sneaky - slow download of updates, restart and get the same message that it cannot configure updates and wait forever-long for the laptop to "restore" data back to normal which she didn't do, once again.

  I'm completely helpless as to what I should do, I restored factory once more but this time I'll just wait for some feedback or try to make everything I find on these forums it is useful.

  Help, please.

• Windows 7 - file/folder access permissions

  In Windows 7, is it possible to remove the folder and file access permissions throughout the world?  I changed the permissions of folder individually, but it's a nuisance, because permissions seem to vary throughout the structure.

  I also batch files copying and writing data that are also affected by these folder permissions.

  Does anyone know how to fix this?

  Hello

  
  I do not understand the process will be painful, however you must first start with the largest content and assign a new owner and save the changes made to all the sup files inherit the same permissions and down to the last file.
  Some useful tools that can help to facilitate this task, CACLS.exe, since there is not a direct support of article which explains the features and methods for the Windows 7 operating system, I would say that you use your favorite search engine to check its controls and description.
  
  Note: Make sure that when you are looking not to click or download random content that can be labeled 'Cacls, property, access' as these file may damage your computer.
   
  refer,
   
  Subinacl is an autmated process and therefore the OP will not have to change the file permissions individually if he could run this tool. These are advanced steps, do not try until the necessary measures are taken to ensure that the data and the system upward.

• Editable attribute fails to update file name change

  I use regions editable for image swap on bearings so that I can disable one of the images flown over by changing the url of the image itself. I do this to show what section of the Web site visitors are in currently. I think that this quite common. Using templates is ideal for this, but without the editable for swap image attribute I could not identify visitors to the section using the swap image.
  
  If I change the name of the image it does not update the url of the editable attribute. The find and replace feature also does not affect this. It updates all other instances of this image, but not the template param code. Any ideas? I tried to open the nested and caraa models, update the names with the search- and -replace and could not operate. I had to delete all editable areas and update the pages of models and then re-create the and the bearings. Tedious. Wanted to know if someone has bypassed this or if I do wrong etc.
  Thank you, Tim

  If you're still reading this thread, here's a solution for you.

  In this model, include the following markup-

  <>
  href ="... bgtesting2.html" > None "

  In the anchor tag, mention the name of the image that you want to track with the
  parameter. By doing this, you say DW page template should also be
  analyzed for the path to the file, and this will force the setting as
  updated.

  Note that this conditional region never 'prints' since it is testing the
  Boolean false to the truth that will never happen.

  CAPICHE?
