  1. Windows update not working


    Hi Reddit, my windows isn't updating correctly, it keeps giving me a error.

    So one day, I heard that there is a new update 2021-01. Who doesn't want their computer up to date? So, I went to my check for update section and started updating. But every time it finished installing, it crashes and gives the error 0x80073701. Trust me, I have tried many times, same error, same place it got stuck at.

    So, I looked online, people said it was a corrupted windows build and needed repairing, so I did in administrator CMD and typed in sfc /scannow. This did say it has fixed some corruptions but it just can't install right. I ran update troubleshooter and it failed as well.

    If anyone knows how to fix this, please help!

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

  3. Windows 10 infinite restart black screen


    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    Windows update not working

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Windows update not working :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
