Windows Update stopped to retrieve updates

I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit on a Dell Studio 450 desktop.

The system came with Vista SP1

After the initial installation whether you walk through the name of machine etc., I started to do the Windows updates

I selected all the available updates, and he began to do the updates.  During this operation, he ran into problems that have started to restore Vista and then continue.  Below is the history of update (Please someone MAKE bet has DAY SO I CAN COPY AND PASTE THE LIST the NEXT TIME!)

I was NOT able to recover the additional updates which means that I can't go to SP2 or apply last patch Tuesday updates etc.

What should I do to fix this?

    Hello ms_frustrated,

    I recommend that you perform a repair installation.  It would be the fastest way and repair you the computer and while still keeping your documents.  PLEASE SAVE YOUR SYSTEM VISTA FIRST.  The link below explains how to perform a repair installation.  After your installation, verify that Windows update works before installing anything.

  • How to stop Windows Update to take keyboard focus, when you are asked "do you want to restart now?

    Windows Update often wants to restart the computer after an update.  If you say "not now" (or ignore?), he will later pop up a question "reboot now?" in a bubble of task bar.  INCREDIBLY, it will at that time take keyboard focus of everything that happens and then accept what he gets as a response from the user.  This means that if the user was in the middle of typing something, the following sequence of keys will enter the bubble "you want to restart" instead of some request the user was in the middle of the help.  It's very bad.

    Here is what just happened to me.  I was in the middle of typing a document when the keyboard focus was suddenly taken by the issue of recovery, a fraction of a second later, the following combination of keys, he disappeared - I have no idea what hit it.  Fortunately, I saw the flash and guess what had happened and quickly you press 'save' on my request.  A few seconds later, my application has been closed as the machine restarted.

    I think that the bubble of Windows Update SHOULD NOT STEAL the KEYBOARD FOCUS.  I think it's dangerous and bad design.

    What is the best way to communicate this suggestion to the team of Windows Update?

    Is there a setting to stop Windows Update to do this?  (Stop stealing keyboard focus)

    I use Vista Home Premium

    I'm looking for a Microsoft solution for the specific problem I described, and/or advice on where post for better attention to Microsoft to "design problem".

    None of us are obstruction you. If we knew a way to avoid this problem (problem), we would have mentioned it earlier in this thread.

    You aren't the first person to complain about this and I'm sure you won't be the last. According to Microsoft, you have two options:

    1 use an automatic updates setting other Automatic (for example, download updates but let me choose whether to install them). or...

    2. turn off the automatic updates and get your updates manually (which I don't recommend).

    I have windows update set to alert me when there are updates available, but let me choose who is accepted. That's how I like it, and I don't want to change this setting. However, I don't want to know if there's a way to deny successfully an update, so that I'm not yet on this subject whenever I start my computer. It's a gene. I want to just delete some of the list.

  • Blue screen of death (stop 0x0000007B) after April Windows Update on XP Home.

    My machine (Dell Dimension 3100 with XP Home) home is set for automatic recovery of Windows updates. I reload often, but when I was forced to start again last week, I got the blue screen of death. Apart from the general BSOD error message, I got the stop code:

    STOP 0x0000007B...

    I forgot the subsequent stop codes, but search recall I was doing on them indicated drivers disk or storage-related problem.

    I ran all sorts of Dell diagnostics on my hardware, get absolutely no problem. Scan of a viral infection was also negative. A colleague help out me suggested removing the updates of Windows of April, he did help and usefulness of the ERD. XP loaded and started after that, if I had to go through a process of slooow restart for most updates. My office also now charge many times slower - I suspect drivers and services can't find what they expect to find and take considerable time to make mistakes.

    My Dell has a range of Intel (RAID-1) matrix installed. I strongly suspect that this pilot was in trouble after the April update Windows Update.

    So, what should I do to prevent this from happening again? I don't know the specific fix involved. I have disabled the automatic updates for now.

    TIA

    Rick

    Complete sweep of Kaspersky AV, booted from the CD, turned up negative, so I doubt that it is an infection.

    I'm sorry, but this does not exclude the possibility of infection. See step # 3 in my previous response, or contact Ms. PCSafety for assistance.

    Or see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff559218 (VS.85) .aspx and/or http://aumha.org/a/stop.php#0x7b for more troubleshooting ideas.

    Or if you let Windows Update to install an update for the driver (never a good idea), try a roll-back of pilot.

    Hi guys

    I had installed up-to-date antivirus software and my problem seems to start after an update from Microsoft. Do a search on the web and you will see similar stories. I spent so much time trying to solve this I think it's better just to do a re-install. Certainly not the resolution I had hoped, but appreciate this type of questions are almost impossible to solve the problems through intermittent mail such messages.

    Thank you

  • MAKE WINDOWS UPDATER STOP annoying me

    Is there a way to make Windows Updater STOP recommending an update 'Important '?  I don't use Internet Explorer, it ask me download a 8.8 MB 'security update' for IE, which I did not need.

    Quote your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Windows XP 64 - bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.

    While you can't use IE, Windows does so it is very important to keep IE (and Windows) fully-patched at all times!
