Windows updates is left off

I write on behalf of a client.

He is having some problems with turning on the automatic updates.

He's trying to turn it on by selecting the option to activate it manually. However, after this, she does not yet. He says that the page is empty and it fails.

Have you tried:

How to reset the Windows Update settings?
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

or

Have you checked to see if the "Auto update" service is running and not disabled.

Another thing, you can try:

Go to START, select RUN
Type: regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wuaueng.dll
Press Ok

No guarantee.

Stuck in this mode.what do I do? I don't know if I should try just reset the computer of hole again or that it would be wrong.

    Original title: tried to update computers rose to 12%

    Hi Sandra,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?

    I understand that you can not install some updates with the error message "failure of configuration of the Windows updates...". ». I can imagine the disadvantages suffered by you and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem.

    First place, according to the error message, I suggest you to try the steps in the following article and check if it helps.

    "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

    Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.


    The question may arise if the Windows downloaded update packages are corrupt. So, if you are able to boot to the desktop with the help of the above article, I also suggest you try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Try to run that Windows update utility provided in the following link.

    Problems with installing updates

    Try to install the updates after running the troubleshooter.

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    I suggest you to use Deployment Image Servicing and Management to fix Windows Update errors.

    (a) open an elevated command prompt. To do this, press the Windows key + Q and type in CMD right click on command prompt in the list and select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    (b) type the following commands. Press enter after each command

    • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    (c) close the command prompt, and then run Windows Update again.

    Check if the problem persists.

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

  • Default configuration of the Windows updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer

    Hi, I just refreshed my laptop that I got a few drops FPS at random. Initially, it worked fine, but after a while before instaled Norton started to cause me problems. At this time I uninstalled it and when he asked me to computer restatr now, I did. Now I'm stuck with this message window loading. Restart the computer from time to time, but the message is always the same: failure of configuration of Windows updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer.
    Computer: hp pavilion n006sm
    Operating system: win 8 pre-installed
    At the moment I'm stuck on this window for over an hour and nothing has changed

    Seems that problem solved by itself. As I correctly uninstalled Norton, I just put my automatic updates and restarted my laptop again. He installed the updates with no problem and its working fine. Seems that Norton was really the problem, will keep you informed.
