Windows update is not download and install Service Pack 1, 2 3

Did a fresh install of Vista 32 bit Home Premium on Acer Extensa 4420. After repeatedly run Win Update and installation of more than 60 update updates said that I was aware. HOWEVER, SP - 1 was not detected as missing but was necessary for the other software work. I found SP-1 and installed manually. Now Win Update refuses to download Service Pack 2, so of course it also doesn't download Service Pack 3.

Why is Win defective Update and do not install it no matter what Service Packs?

Do I have to manually install SP2 & SP-3 or should I wait until I discovered problems or get a virus or another bad thing because Win Update did not bother to run properly?

===========================================
I think it may be better if you download full
files on your desktop and then install from there. And... BTW...
There is no Vista SP3.

Once you have the file on your desktop, it can be a useful
try to unplug the net and turn off your anti-virus
before installing.

  • Updates will not download and install - NO ERROR CODE - updates remain at 0%

    For Adobe Support.

    I get the popup "update" whenever I connect to my computer and it gives me an error message but no code error. The update starts at 0% and stays there indefinitely.

    It's VERY frustrating because on top of working 10 hours today, I have now lost another hour, trying in vain to find a solution.

    By quitting their stand alone suite (CS5, 6 etc) and later support for it, Adobe has FORCED me to use their Cloud Creative suite subscription. While I HATE not being able to buy a standalone program, I like the CC Suite and I'm PAYING for this subscription that provides the latest updates. Now, all of a sudden the updates will not download and install and Adobe wants me to follow a set RIDICULOUSLY long and complicated steps to solve the problem? It's a complete and absolute nonsense!

    I am a self-controlled, respectable and intelligent individual, but it makes me want to use profanity! I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS NONSENSE.

    According to the latest information (see: Adobe : Cloud accelerates since 3.4 million paid creative members |) ProDesignTools) there is over 3.4 million people like me PAY for reliable use!

    Frankly, I'm so frustrated that I am very close to spearhead a national campaign to educate these users 3.4 million on the negligence of Adobe supported because it's visitors!

    WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! ADOBE NEEDS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! When you get this figured out, I'll certainly appreciate an e-mail from your. In the meantime. Be aware that each passing day, and whenever I see this pop up, it serves as a reminder that Adobe does not respect what they promised!

    Kind regards

  • Windows updates fail to download and install the new

    Good afternoon

    I recently bought this satellite laptop computer pro on the package was both windows vista Home premium. I also decided to change fnsi at the same time. The provider also gives Norton Firewall Virus Intrusion etc etc.

    Microsoft does not validate my system but after that 2 hours on the phone with them and a system restore, they have agreed that I had bought some valid stuff and that fixed it.
    Now it seems windows updates icon appears ask me do I want to download and install.

    I do but every time, it fails, there are about 11 things that fail, no installation. I rang Microsoft today that they made one or tow things say but PC Toshiba's fault.

    Please, anyone had this happen to them and got the solution (s)?
    Please take into consideration that my knowledge of pc can be written on the back of a postage stamp. Do like me simple.

    Thank you

    Did you try to disable the firewall or uninstall Norton? Norton may block the Internet connection.

    If the provider uses a Proxy Server, you need to enter the proxy in Internet Explorer connection settings.

  • MS updates do not download and install

    I chose automatic inform me about important updates.  I said that I have two important to install updates.  I click to update.  The screen rises, but nothing is all downloaded.  The bar continuous action going on the page but update % remains zero.  Any ideas?  Something must be reset?  I tried to download again, but the same thing happens.  The two important updates that are listed are: security for Windows Vista (KB972270) update and update for Windows Mail Junk E-Mail Filter (KB405866).  Never, no error message indicating that the installation has failed.  The installer just hangs up.  It's on a system Vista business with Service Pack 2 installed.  Last updated on 13/01/2010.
