• Several Windows updates fail with the same error code 80070081 0 x

  Anyone has any idea why? I just run SFC/scannow and restarted the computer, but no joy.

  Thank you for your help. When I wrote the first time, I had already tried your mentioned basic steps. : D I was troubleshooting computers for friends and family for a long time, and I'm a fan of CCleaner (one of the first things I install on any computer!). Unfortunately, they had not solved the problem.

  I have not run Windows repair tool. It is a work computer, and because my colleague use it almost all the time, I didn't have enough time to play with him. Anyway, he had a program called "Advanced Systemcare v.6" that someone had already loaded. A scan with the program detected and repaired something that solves the problem of failure of Windows Update.

  But I will keep your advice in mind. During the next update Tuesday, if updates not yet once again, I'll try the Windows repair tool.

  Thanks again!

• Printer does not work with the driver installed and the error 2081883395 while unistalling the driver software.

  I have a HP Deskjet 3050 J611which a printer prints perfectly wireless or if the software is not installed, although it won't scan without software.  When I install the software, it does not work.  When I try to uninstall the software I get a 2081883395 error, and it will not erase the software.  I managed to download a software that did delete and I reinstalled, have the same problem, but can't find the software to remove the HP software.  I tried to install HP disc and download.  What is a 208 error?  How can I remove this software?  And how to install the software without this error (maybe it can work)?  Thank you.

  If you want Office 2007 updates to appear in the installed updates again, you would need to uninstall/reinstall Office 2007 and install all the updates again.

  Assuming that Office 2007 is installed & working properly and no update is offered when you run a manual check for updates now, you might want to leave enough alone (that is, do nothing) - then see if the 2 updates for Office 2007 SP3 be released next Tuesday (a) receive, (b) successfully install and (c) are listed in the installed updates later.

  PS: The possible causes of the problem are messing with registry cleaners, messing around with the Software Distribution folder, and the fact that it was a computer refurbished when you bought it.

• What is happening with Windows Update you will need to install a new update to check for updates?

  What is happening with Windows Update from 18/01/2016 When I find out Windows Update in Control Panel, he said, with a big yellow sign warning, "install new Windows Update software to check updates. You must first install an update from Windows Update. Your automatic update settings will not change. To install the updated Windows Update will automatically close and reopen. »

  Only Microsoft would think of this UPDATE TO SEE THE UPDATE.

  When you click on install, it starts running AND running and checking for updates and there is no display. It must be download them?

  When I go to shut down the computer, there is a big yellow exclamation on the Start button that says that Windows Update will install updates before its stop point. So it takes a while to stop.

  I also noticed that in Windows Task Manager > process I have an iexplore.exe process * 32 running 120, 600 KB.

  It stopped when I changed the Windows Update option stop the download and installation.

  The computer is running very slow and erratic.

  I just reinstalled Windows 7, so I have to do all the updates.

  Does anyone have the same problem?

  Thank you

  TomS

  Yep, that's how M$ slides 10ware in

  See the note at the bottom of the updates settings page ;)

  M$ has abused more than system update in 2015 and that continues in 2016.

  I usually don't worry about this if updates are they come if not well welcome to 2020 support ended in the beginning

  Do not use Internet Explore / MSE / Windows Firewall / Windows defender

  Find alternatives for all of the foregoing

  Free Panda who has a firewall

  Premium not free malwarebytes, but it has a free version

  Superaitispyware pro, which also has a free version

  Moon pale x 64 bit is quite good with Firefox.

  In the end, you can use a standard account instead of an administrator account and be safer.

  You can still enter a password if you are prompted to run the items that you know are safe.

  Well how did Linux a user to enter a password to do most of the tasks = kind of annoying if: p

  Let junkware M$ at the door, you will be much safer any square meter said ;)
