Updates for Vista no install


Recommended Posts

Posted

It has been 3 or 4 weeks now and I am not able to install windows updates.

Right now it says I have 2 updates to install but just hangs there. The green

bar goes across but never installs the updates. What do you think?

Try the Bits Repair Tool and see if that helps -

Open Windows Update and review your history.

Locate the update/s that have failed to install (you can view further

information about the failed update/s by double-clicking the update )

 

Also note that you can start a free Windows Update support incident request:

This morning I tried the updates again and they installed. as soon as it was

done a ballon poped up saying windows can't check for updates. I clicked on

windows updates again and now get erorr code 80073712. This is the same code

I was getting before.

The "Windows Features" dialog box is empty in Windows Vista, or you receive

an error message that includes the following code when you try to use

Windows Update: "0x80073712":

It goes thru the process of searching for updates and then says Windows can’t

search updates and gives the error code code80073712. This seemed to happen

after reading about the stealth windows updates.
