Windows Update, run forever

• After win7sp1 clean install on a new hard drive, Windows Update runs forever - have tried MANY fixes

  April 2, 2016

  For several days, I have reproduced this problem by starting with a W7Sp1 drive and also start with a considerably older drive of W7.  The old installation of W7 is going very well, first run of WUpdate receives a few fixes, apply and restart.  Rerun WUpdate and she finds Sp1.  Installation of Sp1.  Rerun Wupdate and it says to upgrade to a new Wupdate.

  After the SP1 update and the new windows update, this system offers the same WUpdate symptoms as if from the W7Sp1 disk.  Immediately after the installation of the drive, run the wupdate.  He said: it must be updated to a new Wupdate.

  (PS in each Installer Win7, I authenticated the product key and activated windows.)

  After that, Windows Update never runs you want fixed.  (Left running 10 hours overnight).

  (NO OTHER programs or anything like that is installed after installing Win7 and starting with Windows Update problems).

  =============================================================

  I found 2 programs: FixitAllUp.

  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 - downloading "MicrosoftFixit.wu.MATSKB.Run". (Chasing a "minimal boot"). The last time I have raced, he said if found 2 problems, but only fixed a.  I hit the button Details where he says that he finds the same 2 problems and fixed them BOTH.  It corrects "Missing or damaged registration Service" he said: he can't solve 'Installation problems of the recent updates' - but when you hit details it button show both under "green checkmark" FIXED.  (I also tried to run this several times, and he always finds and he said exactly the same thing, as did the first round).

  Also have run "WindowsUpdateDiagnostic" downloaded from the microsoft site.  It's the same notes 2 problems and fixed one or both depending on if you are looking the summary or detail.

  I read many many cases of a problem that dates back to 2011 and with various assumptions for this problem.

  AND YET, Windows Update checks the updates for EVER and EVER.

  Help

  There is a solution and it works very well...

  Windows Update problem (new)

  The following procedure applies in the case of installation (reinstall) Windows 7.  It does not apply to a usual, normal day.

  I'm afraid that you will do the reinstall again.  Not a terrible penalty to pay.  Usually takes less than an hour.  Then immediately proceed to the next procedure.   It's strange, but it really does work and many people have proved it.

  NEVER install anything other than Windows updates until your system is up-to-date.  Once you have the list update, install all together.  Installation of updates in batches is not expedite the process or do better.

  1. Before you begin to re - install, download (32 or 64 bit) KB3083710 and KB3102810 in advance and store on a USB
  2. Start and end the re - install Windows 7 SP1
  3. Before that the newly installed system can go online for the first time, Disconnect the computer from the Internet.  This chronology is essential.  The system should NOT have access to the Internet when it starts.
  4. Install KB3083710 and reboot manually.
  5. Install KB3102810 and reboot manually.
  6. Restore the Internet connection, and run Windows Update as usual.
  7. After a few minutes, you should have a lot of updates to download and install.

  I ran to a DVD and Malwarebytes Microsoft Security databases.

  When I launches the update, he said that there are no updates installed and now worked for three days with the Green banner goes pretty slowly. This screen also indicates that it is 9 in option updates available, but does not show what they are.

  How long should I wait to get it working?

• Windows 7 Check for Updates runs forever and gets nothing

  I have good internet connection and any other program can download and upload.

  I had a service technician install Windows 10 (had updated Windows 7 and computer Note: ok for upgrading), which was a very early version.  This Windows 10 would not get either any upgrade.  So I went back to the factory installed Windows 7 (Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 of 2011 time period, I bought computer in August 2011).  This is where I am now and receive no updates.

  Before installing Windows 10 I've done several reverts to the original version of Windows 7 installed in the factory and then updated without problem.

  What could be the problem now?  Windows 10 has done something?  Thanks for any help.

  The return of Win10 process often fails to properly Win7.  Do this restore to factory again.  Then, after the re - install go here to find out how to start Windows updates.  I know it works.  I do it every day and we just started today.

• error code 80070005 Windows Update running

  Original title: error code 80070005.

  Last Friday, my laptop had a message saying Vista had stopped working properly and I had to install service pack 1 (even if this had been done just after buying 18 months ago), I did the install and now all THE updates have been removed from the computer and he said: he can't do windows updates the error code 80070005. can anyone help with this. Thank you

  Hey gordont,

  Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates. Access may be denied if you have logged on to the computer as a standard user and this account does not have permission to install updates.

  To resolve the problem follow the steps that are listed in the methods below in the order listed, starting with method 1.

  Method 1:

  Log the computer as an administrator or as a user with administrative rights.

  Method 2:

  One of the most common causes of this error code (access denied) is the Anti Virus and Anti Spyware software running on the computer. You can try to disable them, and then try the updates again.

  Method 3:

  Try to reset your default security settings.

  Reference:

  How to restore the security settings the default settings?

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/313222

  Method 4:

  Reset Windows Update components.

  See:

  How to reset the Windows Update components?

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

  This should be it.

  Note: Runs the computer without antivirus software or firewall is a potential threat to the computer; don't forget to activate the security software after completing the troubleshooting steps and after you have identified the problem.

• BSOD on all options after starting windows updates running.

  I ran the windows updates last night I shut down my computer.  I remember it being about 12 updates to run.

  Windows Vista, 32-bit

  This morning, I rebooted my computer and during the loading sequence, updates continue (the non-graphical part) and then I got a BSOD.  I tried to run all the security modes and got the same message.

  I ran repair my system disk and got the message that he could not repair the version of windows.  I tried a system restore, but it said I had no save points.

  Is there a way to manually tell it that updates have been an uninstall from the reapir vista disk command prompt?

  The specific the BSOD error code is
  0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x8264CB56, 0x803998CC, 0x803995C8)

  Any help which is not one of these answers canned that has a bunch of stuff I can't do since I can't on something else that the ERD would be useful.
  Thank you!

  In the end I solved it me - so if someone runs into similar codes - here is the summary:

  I ran Windows Update.
  On reboot the part of the update that runs in non-graphical mode full - then crashed by the computer.
  I got BSOD screens whenever I tried to boot in any mode.
  The specific error code is 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x8264CB56, 0x803998CC, 0x803995C8)
  I tried the repair disk installation process - which could not find anything.
  I couldn't do a system restore point, because they were all gone.
  I called Microsoft - they were very nice, but their only solution was to re - install which was not possible for me.
  I downloaded and created a boot cd on another computer that could run antivirus software.
  The disc has been call BootCD Secured2k - there is a forum on the Mcafee site about this.
  I used it and found a Patched - atapi.sys trojan that he removed from the case.
  (Reading between the lines - this thing has been disrupted by the Microsoft Update that caused the mess)
  Then I got a new problem starting with the error code: 0x0000007b 0x80399bb0
  Same problem of being unable to boot in any mode.
  Same problem of being useless installation disc repair.
  After leaving it for a few hours, it occurred to me that perhaps when atapi.sys, that Trojan has been deleted the file was so.
  I connected the command line available from the installation disc advanced repair options.
  ATAPI.sys had indeed disappeared.
  I used the X:\windows\system32\drivers\atapi.sys and copied on my C:\Windows\system32\drivers.
  And presto! -my windows starts with happiness and everything seemed to work.
  (Why can't notice of repair of microsoft one missing disk or messed up file atapi.sys?)

  Unfortunately a few days later I noticed the Windows updates not working and I couldn't go even this part of the site.
  I tried everything I could think of and failed.
  So I called Mircorosoft again.
  We spent an hour on the phone and they found the problem this time!
  I used OpenDNS as my DNS provider for performance of problems caused by Time Warner.
  For some reason any OpenDNS blocking any attempt on my end to reach the Microsoft Update sites.
  I went from Microsoft recommended DNS and my computer was happy again.
  Everything has been happy since.

  And just to prove that I learned my lesson - I bought Norton Ghost and tries to configure full backups regular since the system restore point says that it don't work for me (I have a vista upgrade a XP Home machine on a FAT file system)

  So:
  Secured2K bootable anti-virus CD (and you can run other analyses of viruses such as PA recommended wear)
  If ATAPI. SYS is removed or bad - I copied it from the disc command prompt install.
  If you Microsoft updates stop working and you can't reach their windowsupdate.microsoft.com - check your DNS.

• Problems with windows update, run sfc/scannow and boot into safe mode. (Vista Home Premium)

  Hi all

  Please bear with me here that I try to explain all the questions I have with my computer right now. I'll try to explain everything that self-organization as possible, but if you need more information or file papers to provide a solution more precise, do it me know.

  To start, I use a HP Pavilion dv6000 series (dv6748us to be exact) with Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit) installed. (Service pack 2). About 6 months ago I got this laptop from what I believe was the conflicker virus (kept forwarding pages, arrested updates and antivirus programs, etc.) and I managed to get Windows Update works again. My help and Support did not work well, it only worked in Mode without failure, so I did some research and tried a bunch of suggested corrections (update the registry, etc.) and got it work yet once again. I don't know if one of the tools that I used all by setting the Help & Support could have caused problems that I now (as I literally tried everything under the Sun until I got to work), but my Windows Update does not work properly again.

  A few weeks ago, I installed some updates and restarted the computer, but updates did not finish install on reboot. He said the usual "Configuring Updates, do not turn off your computer", but never showed percentage complete or whatever it is. It restarted, and when I open Windows Update, he said the last time I checked the updates has never been (obviously not true), and when I tried to check the updates, it jumped right to the message telling me I have to restart my computer to complete the installation of updates. She continues to do everytime I open Windows Update. From time to time, I try to restart it, just to see if it will work, and he never does.

  I spent hours trying all the solutions I could find in Google. I tried to run system update readiness tool, which seemed to run correctly (but does not solve the problem). I then tried the difficulty it for Windows Update, and it does not solve the problem. (It might be important for me to mention that I also have problems with the difficulty It Center itself, too. Individual tools like that for Windows Update is running, but the difficulty It Center program keeps giving me the error message that "a problem is preventing the troubleshooting tool to start.") I also tried to rename the pending.xml file, and then later I deleted it, after reading in another forum that you rename the file could cause system instabillity or something like that.

  Unfortunately, I can't use system restore to solve all my problems, because all my previous restore points have disappeared (I don't know if the virus wiped out them, or if the computer removed on its own) but restore points only I checked are those that have been created recently, during the time I had these problems.

  I tried running sfc/scannow nothing helped, as he continues to tell me that there is a pending repair, but repair pending never ends. I tried to use the command of /revertpendingactions of dism.exe/image:C\/cleanup-image in the command prompt of recovery center to stop it pending repairs, and that has not worked because it claims that dism.exe that does not exist / is not a valid command. No matter what I try, I can't have this pending repair or my updates to complete pending.

  I tried to boot mode safe several times as well and he hung up on crcdisk.sys when starting every time.

  Being that I can't use sfc/scannow, System Restore, or get into Safe Mode, I'm really lost as to what I should do next. I'm honestly not sure if the problems are related, but I just thought it would make sense to list them all in one place.

  Please note that I don't want to re - install Windows Vista, or don't I think I need, because the computer works very well for most. (I use it for typing this right now). I had much rather bring all the features on mine, which I believe can be achieved with the help of the right person.

  If someone could provide me with suggestions/solutions, it would be greatly appreciated! Certainly, it would relieve a lot of stress for me!

  DISM is a thing of Windows 7. First test the hardware.

  Standard hardware troubleshooting
   
   
  First to test we can the material. Material defects can appear as many software defects, that's why we need to test the material first...

   

  Follow these steps in order. Defects of memory can cause disk corruption, disk failures can cause corruption of the disk. Damaged disc causes corrupted files (which SFC may be able to fix). If you get a stop error and after return. Do not run chkdsk with faulty memory.

   
  Diagnosis of memory

  If you have not run a diagnosis of memory, please do. Click on Start - Control Panel - choose Classic view in the left pane - choose Administrative Tools - then memory diagnostic tool.

   

  S.M.A.R.T
  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   
  Disk in Windows drives monitor for impending failure. The function is called S.M.A.R.T. It detects an imminent failure, 30% of the time. In a type elevated command prompt (it's a single line)
   
  WMIC PATH MSStorageDriver_FailurePredictStatus /namespace:\\root\wmi get active, predictfailure, reason List

   

  If it is on will be true, otherwise on enable in the BIOS of the computer.

   

  Predict the failure must be False if everything is ok.

   

  In Vista and later if SMART failure predicted Windows prompts the user to run the backup.
   
  Run chkdsk

  In computer all your drives right click and choose Properties, then the Tools tab, and then click check now. Check the TWO boxes and then start. Reset. This will take from one day to the next.

   

  SFC

  Check the alteration of the file by clicking on Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).

   

  sfc/scannow

   

  Heat

  Heat can lead to problems of this kind, and sudden restarts without crashing. Make sure that your fans are not clogged with dust.

   

  For memory diagnostic results

  Click on Start - Control Panel (and select Classic view in the left pane), select Administrative Tools and then Event Viewer , and then look in the event (Local) - Applications and Services - Microsoft - Windows - MemoryDiagnostic-results Viewer entered.

   

  Look for EventID is 1201 or 1101 and Source is MemoryDiagnostic-results

   

  Double-click the entry for more details on this entry.

  For results of Chkdsk

  Click on Start - Control Panel (and select Classic view in the left pane) choose Administrative Tools and then Event Viewer , and then look at the Application and the System will connect (under Windows logs) for entries.

   

  Look for EventID is 7 and Source disk
  Look for EventID is 11 and the Source disk
  Look for EventID is 50 , and the Source is disk
  Look for EventID is 51 and Source disk
  
  Look for EventID is 52 and Source disk

  Double-click the entry for more details on this entry.
   
  PS 7 and 55 are auto repair codes where windows repair disk errors silently on the fly. 52 is the SMART warning.
   
  For the results of the SFC
  Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).
   

  findstr/c: "[SR] cannot" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log|more "

   

  It will be able to see which files are corrupted.

   

  To see if there

   

  findstr/c: "[SR] repair" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log|more

   

  There are often false positives for small text files that Windows uses like settings.ini and desktop.ini. Ignore these.

• Windows updates take forever...

  Dear Sirs,

  I have a windows Vista computer, and lately I'm trying to fix these windows problems to update on my own mistakes. I am trying to find answers on the Web sites, but whenever I'm digging into the problems, a new error keeps appearing.

  It seems that I missed files on the windows updates, or some files in the registry are incorrect, and now windows updates keep loading for ever... I even don't see the c:\windows\system32\catroot folder on my PC that is bound to the windows updates.

  Can you please tell me what to do? Windows updates are really important to the PC, so I really need the assistance of an expert in the field with my windows updates.

  Looking forward for your answer,

  Frank
