  My windows Vista (sp2) contains updates it refuses to install!

  (1) Microsoft .NET Framework 4 on Windows (KB2468871)
  (2) update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (KB2533523)
  and
  (3) update for Microsoft Silverlight (KB2617986) this update of Silverlight includes the fixes described in KBs 2604930 and 2617986.
  When I tried to get help via the MS support, I was told that my install Silverlight could be the problem and uninstall all previous versions and install a new one.
  The current version on my machine is 3. something or other (Google Chrome me briefly earlier, but I can't seem to tell me yet again!) He also pointed out that the current version is 5. something or other.  However, I don't know--according to the functionality of uninstall in Control Panel - my version was installed on 21/01/2010 - about 7 months after I got the satellite (a Toshiba). It occurs to me - as it has been ongoing for awhile I fought first to make this thing work and then ignore it (neither of which, it seems, I am able of!)-update Windows is trying to apply can be updated too!
  According to the update of Windows, all three of these updates have downloaded - but I am not sure where...   When I tried to uninstall the old version of Silverlight, Windows Uninstall (via Control Panel) tells me that I need the Silverlight installation disc to go ahead. I've never had one! What can I do? Why these upgrades do not work? It has been for months!  Help, please.

• during the windows vista pack 2 update my antivirus will become obsolete?

  during the windows vista pack 2 update my antivirus will become obsolete?

  Hi victor,

  It would be useful to know the name and the version of the antivirus program that you use. However, in general (and frankly I can't think an exception) upgrade Vista SP1 to SP2 will not make your out-of-date antivirus.  In fact, it will improve the overall security of your system.  But just to be on the good side, I suggest that you update your AV software once you have completed the upgrade to SP2 and installed all the additional Windows updates which will become available once you do this (and you may need to run a few times to get everything as some may be presented until others have been installed).

  If you want suggestions of security software, please post your version of Vista (e.g., 32-bit Vista Business) as well as the names and versions of any software security you are currently using or have used or had installed even if you've never used (and when the definitions for the software in use have been updated).  These suggestions will be excellent and work well together (even if you can not install two AV programs at the same time, these are not all the AV programs but still aid in the detection and removal of malware, viruses and spyware.  And they are all completely FREE - nothing we suggest will not cost you even a penny and that they will be as good if not better that people pay money to get the bits.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• I got a new open word doc and is logged when Windows Vista did an update automatically and restart, now I seem to have lost

  original title: lost document

  I got a new open word doc and is logged when Windows Vista did an update automatically and restart, now I seem to have lost! Any suggestions? A system restore wouldn't work?

  If you have not saved the document before the reboot - and Windows always give a lot of warning before restarting automatically - while the file disappeared.  There is no way to recover; System Restore does apply to system files, not data.

• Windows Vista - August 2010 update

  Windows Vista - August 2010 update. Stuck at 17 of 18 updates. Hard drive is occupied after 17 hours of update.

  Hi JX2,.

  1. you receive an error message?

  2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

  First restart the computer and check more later history of the update to get the update failure and post details back with details.

  (a) open Windows Update by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type Update, and then in the list of results, click Windows Update.

  (b) in the left pane, click view update history.

  (c) to view more information about an update, double-click it.

  Also try to install new updates after restart the computer after the computer is clean boot state in order to avoid any interference from third-party program while installing updates.

  See the Microsoft article below and try again mentioned step

  The update is not installed successfully, you receive a message, and the computer restarts when you try to install an update in Windows Vista and Windows 7

• Windows Vista is not updates.

  My Windows Vista is not updates. I get a message that says that one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly. How can I configure my Windows updater?

  1. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336> [ignore titles, etc..], the pop-up troubleshooting automated dismiss then run difficulty he 50202 in DEFAULT and modes and AGGRESSIVE. [Ignore warnings "Not recommended", etc.].

  2. restart & test.

  Full disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but NOT list the updates installed in Add/Remove programs.

• When I scan for Windows Vista Service Pack update (published 4/2009) comes in,

  I redid my computer a few months ago restore to factory settings and restore my files from a backup disk. Everything seemed to work properly.  A few weeks ago a full scan found a worm & some virus which I removed. Now, I have a problem with the updates. When I scan for Windows Vista Service Pack update (published 4/2009) arrives.  When I click to install it, it is saying it is correctly installed (in 30 seconds) and yet he continues to come when I'm scanning for updates.    Should I restore settings again?  After looking for info on the forums of windows, I did the System File Checker to check corrupt files.  Several corrupted files appear in the details of the SFC.  But their fixation is "over my head".   I glued the SFC details below. Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you

• Windows Vista won't start after installation of microsoft updates

  I just install microsoft updates, then the computer is turned off and it does not load windows.  A box appears that says
  Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Library.
  This application has requested the execution to terminate in an unusual way.  For more information, contact the application support team.

  The options are to click OK or close the box.  I tried both and it just keeps popping up the same box as above.

  Hi Mas_007,

  Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

  I have a few here that might solve the problem.

  A.) Firstly, I suggest that you start the computer in safe mode and check if you are able to boot without any problems, safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not run in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed that, follow these steps to start the computer in safe mode with networking:

  To restart the computer using safe mode, restart the computer and press the F8 key for about four to five times. Appears in safe mode listed in the advanced options of Windows. Select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER.

  (B) I suggest that you perform a clean boot on your computer, to help troubleshoot error messages and other issues; You can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  The following link has steps showing how to perform the clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

  (1) perform the clean boot (check the link to perform the clean boot)

  (2) enable half the services

  (3) determine whether the problem returns

  (4) enable half of the startup items

  (5) determine if the problem returns

  (6) repeat the steps above until you find out which program or service is causing the issue

  After you determine the startup item or the service that is causing the problem, contact the manufacturer of the program to determine if the problem can be solved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click to clear the check box of the element of the problem.

  Note: Please make sure that the computer is configured to start as usual by following step 7 of article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.

  (C.) I suggest that you perform a scan of the file system [SFC] checker on the computer, the scan replaces the failed system of files with the original files from version of Windows on the computer system, follow the steps below to perform a scan:

  I suggest to empty the temp folder and later, follow these steps:

  i. Click Start > type % temp % in the start search box > press on enter > delete everything present in the temp folder.

  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

  2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

  3. at the command calls, the following line and press ENTER: sfc/scannow

  When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

  Additional information: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212

  Hope this information is useful.
  Let me know if it worked.
  All the best!

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• Windows Vista 64 not updated since September 2009! Error. 80070424

  Recently, the research on different forums on the web that this one to try to solve the problem. Can't say I've found a lot of useful information. I tried a number of things like turn off some windows services, a windows program fixit and something to do with the BITS or something and nothing seems to work. I even tried to find the files needed to install manually and no chance and whenever I think I find a link on this maze of a Web site that looks like it could hold the key need you for this page which shows you just a picture of the start menu and the cursor during the update of windows. Not frickin useful! Just see a link to the left of the screen here leading to a thread with someone who has a similar problem and the adviser said he had to see the last 50 lines of the windowsupdate log to know what he is treated so here is mine.

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

  HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista#section_3

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

  4 steps to help protect your new computer before going online

  NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the removal tool before installing updates, Windows Service Packs, or updates IE and before installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).

• Windows Vista stuck in update 3 of 3 loop after updates.

  updated the title: Can not boot Vista after updates

  I'm stuck in the update 3 of 3 loop and cannot restore my system by using the system restore or the Vista CD... Can anyone help? Y at - it a solution or should I reinstall?  thanksRemember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Hi royfos,

  Do you have a code error message when you try to run the system restore?

  Check if you can get into safe mode. If you manage to get into safe mode, then you can run the restore of the system from there. Otherwise, another option is to perform the Startup Repair.

  Method 1: Troubleshooting Safe Mode

  Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode

  Safe mode is an option of troubleshooting for Windows that starts your computer with only basic services and features.

  To get into safe mode, check out this help article: , start your computer in safe mode

   

  Step 2: Run system restore

   

  For complete help, see this article:System Restore: frequently asked questions

  Note: If you use system restore when the computer is in safe mode, you can not undo the restore operation. However, you can run System Restore again and choose a different restore point if any.

  Method 2: Startup Repair

   

  Startup Repair is a Windows Vista recovery tool analysis of missing or damaged system files that may prevent Windows from starting correctly. Run it and see if that fixes the boot problem.

• WINDOWS VISTA 32-BIT UPDATES

  CAN SOMEONE HELP ME GET UPDATES FOR WINDOWS VISTA 32 BIT?   I AM NOT GETTING THE ERROR CODES, JUST CONTINUES ON THE LEFT SEARCH BAR RIGHT AND DOES NOTHING. NOTHING IS FOUND TO DOWNLOAD. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM.

  Hi BluesBlaster:

  If your initial "check for updates..." Windows Update crashes during long periods without raising an error, this is a widespread problem currently affecting many users of Vista SP2.

  Some users find that "check for updates..." will be finally run full if you let run for several hours, but there is also a workaround solution posted on the page Web of Dalai to http://wu.krelay.de/en/ that accelerates the Windows Update for the affected users. Of workaround requires users to pre-install the kernel-mode Windows updates (Win32K.sys) driver listed on this Web page, if one is missing from your system before running Windows Update.  I used Dalai for the latest Patch workaround three Tuesdays (the second Tuesday of each month) and has reduced my search for 'check for updates...' updates available for 6 or 7 hours up to approx. 25 min.

  Step-by-step instructions posted on 16 June 2016 wire m #l's updates does not, it was the search for updates to the hours are based on workaround of Dalai and will guide you through the installation process of packages update stand-alone (.msu files) for your updates Win32K.sys missing.

  As of today (11-Sep-2016) the current list of updates Win32K.sys on the page Web of Dalai is: KB3078601 (rel. 18 August 2015); KB3109094 (rel. 7 December 2015); KB3145739 (rel. 12 April 2016); KB3164033 (rel. June 14, 2016); KB3168965 (rel. July 12, 2016); KB3177725 (rel. 9 August 2016). Just install the updates that are not in your system, so if you have been fully patched at the end of July 2016 you must have to install manually the last KB3177725 (MS16-098: a security update for the Windows Kernel-Mode drivers: 9 August 2016) before you run Windows Update to install your remaining August 2016 Patch Tuesday updates.  List of Dalai will probably be revised tonight next Tuesday when the September 2016 Patch Tuesday updates (and a new version of Win32K.sys) are released on 13-Sep-2016, then you might want to wait a few days to try this workaround.

  Dalai has posted general information at http://wu.krelay.de/en/info.htm which explains why the Windows Update Agent (WUA) is currently suspended during the "checking for updates..." Windows Update.  The current v7.6.7600.256 Vista, C:\Windows\system32\wuaueng.dll WUA has not been updated by Microsoft since June 2012.
