When I try to open the "gfwlivesetup".exe file, I get an error message saying that I can't download the program. The same appears when I try to do anything regarding the download of Microsoft, via their Web site or through Windows updates. After failing to install, the window displays this message:

"Installation failed."

A network error occurred while trying to get information from the server. Check your network connection and try again. »

    I ran sfc/scannow, and the result read that some files cannot be repaired. I installed my Vista installation disc but the upgrade is disabled. I think that the upgrade is disabled because the latest version of Vista running on my laptop is at a higher level than the installation disc, so the only option is Vista, back to the factory. My question is, did a complete reinstall the only solution to 'Windows couldn't find the new updates? with the code 80070490 error?

    Thanks much for the reply. In fact, I used a (very similar) solution I got from the Microsoft online support (which seemed simpler then I tried this first!). But I appreciate the fact that you responded - thnaks a lot!

    Reload the temporary update files

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

    A possible cause is that the temporary folder of Windows Update contains corrupted files. This step will clean up its "Download", which contains the updated Windows Update downloaded installation files. After you rename this folder, all the files will be automatically recreated, except the history of Windows Update and downloaded data updates installation files. This will have no negative effect on the performance of your computer.

    1. click on 'Start', 'Run', type: 'Cmd' (without the quotes) and press "enter." In the command window, type "net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press "Enter."

    2. click on 'Start', 'Run', type: '%windir%' (without the quotes) and press "Enter."

    3. right click on the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution and choose 'Rename', type SDOLD as the new name.

    4. click on 'Start', 'Run', type: 'Cmd' (without the quotes) and press "enter." In the command window, type "net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press "Enter."

    Note: This folder will be created automatically after the automatic updates service starts. Historical Windows Update only will be lost. To check the update is needed, I suggest that we check the updates on the Update Web site.

    Now try to update to see if the problem has been resolved. Please let us know if this step has resolved. If this is not the case, proceed to the next step.
