  1. Why are there so many, many, error codes preventing me from receiving the latest updates?


    1st of all, I'm too many, many, many, error codes prevent me from receiving any updates at all. Then, when I contact dell.com, I find out that it's the fault of Microsoft that's creating a problem with the updates with dell.com as well too, which means, my computer is not getting clean nor getting updates as well. Dell had to remove and remove something in order to be restored again. Unfortunately, it didn't work, because I'm flaming getting the same errors there too.

    How long until all of this will be solved until we see relief?

    • What is the exact error code and message included?

    WTF! Vista update error code 80070002

    Can you please tell me the error code you receive when you get the update failed message? If it is 80070002 or anything like that, follow these steps:



    Well, first of all let me just say that I am not a computer professional. However, I have had the same problem with my 32-Bit Windows Vista Home Premium (making Microsoft's statement null and void) and I have solved it! Here are the step by step instructions:



    1) Go to the Start Menu.

    2) Click on Computer.

    3) Open up the drive where windows is installed (usually your C drive).

    4) Open the Windows Folder.

    5) Scroll down a bit and locate the SoftwareDistribution folder (exactly like that).

    6) Open the Download folder.

    7) Open the Install folder.

    8) There sould only be one file there. Right click on it and select "Run as Administrator".

    9) After entering an Administrator password, run the installation, using the default values and clicking yes at the license.

    10) After the installation is complete (shouldn't take more than a few minutes), restart your computer (as an added precaution, though not necessary).

    11) After the computer restarts again, run Windows Update again. It should run as normal. All fixed!

    I apologize for Microsoft's ineptitude.


    This worked for me guys...
