Windows Update list updates pending

Windows Update, listing many of the latest news from security as pending with 80242014 error

I still 4 security updates pending, one for Internet Explorer 9 and the other three are for Vista.  I have read most of the related posts for answers on how to solve this problem and either they do not apply or they are not working to solve the problem, I had this problem before with With Windows Update and the previous one "Cumulative Update for Internet Explorer 9" and took two months before that Microsoft has released a patch to fix the problem. Well, here I still looking for answers. Is this related to security patches or the Windows Update program itself.

BTY, in Internet Explorer in the help tab menu I selected 'On Internet Explorer 9' you see the latest security patch was installed (sometimes it is listed here if the installation was successful, and the last security update has been applied).
The last update of security has been listed, but in Windows Update in the section "View installed updates", it has the last update as pending with error code: 80242014. I don't know how to make sure Windows Vista-related security updates are installed. So, I really thought I should ask before interfering with the registry.
I really believe that my problem is with the Windows Update program itself.   Yet once, I've had this problem before with Culumulative updates to Internet Explorer 9. But I don't remember the difficulty that I found here in the forms of community. Basically, I've tried all my known ideas and corrections ("sfc/scannow", etc.) to fix these security-related updates. I use no Security Essentials, except just the Windows Firewall, Windows Defender and Norton Antivirus Software. I need help to find out if these updates are really installed and Windows Update files are damaged, or if they should be given up. By any other method, when I tried to download and re - install myself, I got this message box "the update does apply to your system" I'm confused why Windows Update tries to install the updates that apply to my system in the first place? Please help!

Thank you sincerely,

Ganine V. Edwards

    It depends on the timeline.  If the scanning and cleaning of malware that you listed was made after February 12, then you can still be infected due to the restoration of the system.
    Therefore, I would say that you are running an analysis of potential threats, before installing the updates.   Also, take a look at this sticky post:

  • can't see installed updates_says no updates installed (windows on_off list also empty features)

    I installed windows 7 ultimate (32 bit) on three new Vostro (I - 5) machines and all the updates and software that we use. Then Windows Update list says "no installed updates" and features Windows on_off list was empty. To i.d. the problem I reinstalled win 7 ulimate (32 bit) and all of our programs on one of the new computers. After every installation or Windows Update, I checked Windows Update/Installed Updates list and the list of windows features and all the elements included (visible). When most of the installation path through the updates to ArcGis 9.3.1 a flag came who said two critical windows updates were available. We stop at installation of ArcGis for windows of the road updates. After you run the windows updates XML Core Services 4 SP2 (KB973688) and an update of security for the same (KB954430) I went back to check the windows update list and he said "no updates installed on this computer" also, nothing has been shown and list of windows features box was empty. Tried to roll back to a previous time, but that doesn't seem to work. Automatic update still seems to work, but we cannot see the list so that we can remove individual updates... What is happening and what can be done, any ideas, thank you.

    I thought that I should let one more message for anyone after that because I think that the problem is solved. I googled on the number 'KB973688' and "Arcgis 9.3.1" update it lead me to a thread that has referenced the following urlhttp://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=93&f=1148&t=287391#902480 . It offers a solution to change the registry size limit. It seemed risky, but it worked all updates are now visible and windows features on_off shows what should be. Two updates came back and auto installed but now did the damage. They do not appear on the list of Windows Update, but the rest don't. Maybe install Arcgis was the culprit

    for Win 7. All three new machines work properly, thanks again for your support.

  • Windows Update empty list updates the list (w / updates)

    I have a weird problem with Windows Update on the Windows 7 x 64 (which obviously appeared after a while - not straight out-of-the-installation).
    The problem is this: I have open Windows Update, click "Find updates", it tells me there are 3 optional updates available, click on "3 optional updates available" to make me choose which install, opens the list of updates, but... it is empty! And on the left, he continues to say "Optional (3)" (screenshot to http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/4839/wufail.png )
    This happens also with the important updates, that they however to settle as they are selected by default, I guess.
    Needless to say, without hidden updates are present...

    Suggestions?

    Thanks in advance

    Sorry, as the problem appeared, now he's gone... no idea how that happened (other than a BSOD forcing _another_ reboot...)! So... Detective Conan!

  • Windows Update informs that the updates are available but the available updates list is empty

    Windows 7 update gives me updates (1 important, 2 recommended) but when I click on the text that would normally be the list of updates of the list that I show is empty.

    So far, Windows Update worked fine. Any idea?

    Who has not helped, according to these instructions gives me the same update screen I've always seen.

    In any case it is not important to me anymore, once I rebooted my computer the screen update began once more to work.

    Under 'View Update History', he shows again and again KB979683 installation successfully.

    Under 'updates installed, he said, "no update is installed on this computer". So I can't download it manually on my desktop, uninstall the update, restart in safe mode and reinstall manually. Also, when I tried to install manually in safe mode without deleting the file, I received the error 0X8007043c.

    I tried stopping the windows update service, and then delete all files in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution > DataSstore and C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution > download, then by restarting the service, but it did not help.

    I've updated and run Malwarbytes Anti-Malware 1.46 and AVG 9.0.829, but found no threat.

    I use windows, as well as automatic daily scans with AVG firewall (manual scans with Malwarebytes: daily).

    I don't know if it's important, but I'm under IE8, version 8.0.6001.18882, 256 bit zero versions updates. I have seen a recent update was available for IE8 (KB982381) but when you try to run manually, he said that the update does not apply to my system.

    2. update you are trying to install?

    3. When was the last time you were able to install updates?

    If Windows Update, error 80072ee2 during updates, the Windows Update servers may experience an unusually high number of requests for updates. Close Windows Update, wait 10 to 15 minutes, and then run Windows Update again. Alternatively, you can wait for automatic update of Windows run at its next scheduled time.

    These errors can occur caused by one of the following problems:

    • Applications or processes that interfere with Internet communications
    • Problems on your computer
    • Strong Internet activity
    • Recoverable database errors

    I am running Vista 32 bit sp1. I just tried to install the new version of Windows update, among other updates agent. He was doing some editing, but I canceled it. These updates have been identified as being cancelled in the update history. After that, I did a restore to a previous restore point. Then I noticed that the Windows Update list has been removed. I don't know what happened. How does restore delete Windows Update list? I just tried to restore the system to a half hour earlier. The updated list should always have all my updates of the past year.

    Once the updated history list has been cleared, then it starts fresh from there.  However, you can see all the updates installed in the Add/Remove Programs list.

  • Windows Update fails with error [error number: 0x800A0007]-which is not listed

    Windows update fails with error [error number: 0x800A0007]-which is not listed, so unable to update the system

    The other post:

    Thank you for your reply - but the problem persists - this is mopre complete info.
    The system starts well and runs - BUT I cannot now be updated because when I access "Windows Update" it always returns this error message.
    Also, none of the messages in your "appliesto" step 2 recommended link will be applied effectively.
    As far as I know - we have a standard system and I just ran again ONCE a full system virus etc check - all clean.
    Also your "Mr Fixit" was performed several times, but nothing changes.
    Because it enters the update process, and then always closes with this specific message (which as I said is NOT in your list of error messages), which SHOULD tell your software writers where is the problem.
    This is what is happening in the process of updating before it fails:
    Keep your computer up-to-date
    Check to see if you need updates for Windows, your programs, your hardware or your devices.

    Get updates of high priority (recommended)  

    Select among the priority and optional updates for Windows and other programs

    ... and it does not matter if I say "express" or "custom" - headed then:

    Checking for updates for your computer...

    but fails after a few seconds with the same message as follows:
