  • Windows updates fail with no error code

    I reinstalled Windows as suggested, and it seems that updates are now mode as it should. I wish you to know how the virus was picked up. All my computers have the latest updates of security products.

    Thank you for your help in this matter.

    I wish you to know how the virus was picked up...

    By your computer previous on the same wire, most likely because you do not have to completely remove the preinstalled Norton free version of evaluation BEFORE you upgrade Windows XP to Vista AND you installed McAfee Antivirus Plus AND BEFORE that you have installed the Vista updates everything (including the Service Packs & IE upgrades).

    Chances are that the McAfee application ever installed or worked properly.

    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:

  • Inspiron 5749: BIOS update fails with the error 'Dell id does not match ".

    Hello

    I'm trying to update the BIOS of the Laptop Inspiron 5749. I downloaded the update file 3443A 07. EXE from Dell support website, where the update is supposed to be compatible with my system:

    -Dell Inspiron 3443/3543/5749 system BIOS;

    -Version A07.

    -Pull out the date 18 November 2015.

    I tried to install the update by using the utility to update the BIOS available in the start menu (after pressing F12). The update failed with the error message "Dell id does not match" or similar.

    Running the update of the session Windows don't seem to have any effect either.

    It seems that the update is only compatible with Inspiron 3443.

    Where can I get the update of the correct BIOS for my laptop? Any help is appreciated.

    The problem has been resolved by a motherboard replacement. Thank you.

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

    Step #1 => foremost, note what version of .NET Framework is installed:

    How to determine what version of the .NET Framework is installed and determine whether the service packs have been applied
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/318785

    Step #2-online now see resolution method 2 in...

    When you try to install an update for .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5, you may receive Windows Update '0 x 643' error code or error code Windows Installer '1603' (ignore the title, if necessary)
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923100

    After running the tool that is appropriate and necessary, (re) install all versions of the .NET Framework (but the ones you noted in #1 above) manually using the download links on the page, and then run Windows Update manually install security updates for same.

    NB: If you remove the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 by using the tool, reinstall .NET Framework 3.5 will also install .net Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2. Then, Windows Update will offer .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

    IMPORTANT! =>, If you remove the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, reinstall your version of .NET Framework in the following order:

    1. the .net framework 3.5, then...
    2 .net framework 1.1, then...
    3 .net framework 1.1 SP1

    NB: KB923100 makes reference to this page: http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/05/30/611355.aspx.  Please read ALL as well as the related http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/pages/8904493.aspx before using the .NET Framework cleanup tool.

    Step #3 => Check-in at Windows Update and install the critical updates of security offered.

    Hello!

    System information: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, i7-720QM, 6 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, ATI 4670 [Dell Studio XPS 1645]

    Background:

    • UAC was arrested. Turn on UAC stop my gadgets to work [another thread on these forums...].
    • A week ago, I got speech recognition works only with a local edition. Insert this ctfmon '=' CTFMON registry entry. EXE, to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, fixed the problem. However, I can't find to this registry entry.
    • Four days ago, I had slow internet speed. I did a 'Complete' Microsoft Security Essentials scan and it found many exploits (Explot: Java/CVE-2009-3867.) BX, TrojanDownloader / OpenConnection.AK, TrojranDownloader:Java / Rexec.c and a dozen others). I removed all the. The internet speed is back to normal.
    • This morning, I have updated the firmware on my SSD to activate the TRIM. I restored an image of the drive I did with Windows Backup and Restore just before updating the drive.

    Problem:

    • I tried Windows Update after update of the SSD. It downloads all updates, installs, and prompts you to restart the computer to complete the installation. During the shutdown, some files are 'configured '. Upon restart, during the boot of Windows GUI (circles of flight), there is a break-up of the code, something about the registry. On logon, it gets "35%" and says so "returning default configuration updates,' or something like that. I get a notification indicating that the updates failed.
    • On Windows Update, only Silverlight, Windows malicious software removal, MSE definition updated and updated Office Publisher are successful.
    • All other updates (security updates, cumulative updates, security updates for IE, updates for Windows) fail with the error code A 80071, 91.
    • If you are looking for updates that fail, here they are: KB2416400, KB2296199, KB2305420, KB2385678, KB2423089, KB24236673, KB2442962, KB246759 and KB2443685.

    What I tried:

    • Disk Cleanup attempt (and unfortunately removed all restore points). Did not work.
    • Attempt to sfc/scannow. He found a few files, that it could not correct; I have the CBS.log newspaper if you need. However, updates still do not work.
    • Tried to reset the resource manager to file with "fsutil resource setautotest true c:\ ». She is successful. However, after the restart, the updates still do not work.
    • Tried a Full scan with MSE. No anomaly.
    • Tried to reset components to update Windows (using the Vista Fix - It via KB971058). Updates still do not work.
    • Attempt of Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (updated dec 2010) Full Scan, no malicious software was detected. Updates still do not work.
    • Attempt of Anti-Malware analysis complete Malwarebyte, no malicious software found. Updates still do not work.

    I don't think that this is malware, but a Windows problem... My internet is wobbly for these last two days, a lot of packet loss (pages only "" half load, some missing frames, etc.). Not sure if this is related, but it downloads the updates very well. It is not always the marker "35%".

    I'm out of ideas. What's next?

    Thank you

    ~ Ibrahim ~.

    1. about 1 year, I installed MSE.

    2 McAfee has been preloaded; the subscription was updated (in a 90-day trial), and I uninstalled McAfee completely (regular uninstall and Removal Tool provided by McAfee).

    3. Yes, for about 30 minutes before I uninstalled and installed MSE.

    4. Yes.

    However, with a little help seven forums, we have figured out it is the registry. I did a reinstall and then the updates installed correctly.

    Thanks for the help, if! :)
