    Hey League kang

    Follow the advice of microsoft at the link below

    This problem occurs when Windows Setup encounters an error. Error code 0 x 80070646 and error code 646 are generated by Windows Installer. These generic errors indicate that Windows Installer has encountered a problem. When you encounter errors that are described in the section "Symptoms", the problem may be caused by an incorrect value in the registry.

  • Problems with Windows Vista update error code I get is Code: 80096001

    Hi gang,.

    I need help I can get at this point. I am currently working on a machine to a customer who had the rootkit zero.access top. The machine works like a champ, now that it is all clean; but for some reason any Windows Vista refuses to update. Let me mention the operating system before proceeding. The operating system is Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. When I try to run Windows Update, the machine has a total of seven updates to install; This is especially important and option. In the important section, the machine is trying to install a security update and that is 9. In the optional section, the machine is trying to install the driver as updates: video, network, etc. The PC is already running Service Pack2. The error code I get is: 80096001. I tried every fix that Microsoft recommends, even the Microsoft Fix It tool. Nothing seems to work. I had a simular problem before in Windows XP. If my memory is good, I had to go to the entry in the registry of Windows Update and apply a DWORD here, or something; I don't remember exactly what I did. I can tell you that I checked the registry and there is literally no key to change in Windows Update. Any help or advice would be great, this question is about to drive me crazy.

    Thank you
