Windows update error code 80246002

I have 4 PCs running Windows 7 (both 64 and 32 bit) and found that after the last update on Wednesday morning, all 4 are now getting a code 80246002 when I did a check for updates today. I tried uninstalling the latest updates and this did not help. On 2
of the PCs, I did a restore to a week ago (when I know that there had been at least two successful checks for updates and this did not resolve the problem. I have seen a lot of posts implying that this is related to KB 2982791 and KB 2993651 but uninstalling
these didn’t resolve the issue.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Mize Johnson

Hi,
If you receive Windows Update error 80246002 while checking for updates, it means that files required by Windows Update might be damaged. This often can be corrected by renaming the Windows Update download folder, and then running Windows Update again.
Try to run the following commands:
1. Type net stop wuauserv. Hit Enter.
2. Type: ren c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution softwaredistribution.old.
Hit Enter.
3. Type: net start wuauserv. Hit Enter.
4. Type: exit and hit Enter.
If it doesn't resolve the issue, run this "Fix It" tool below:

Windows Update Error Code 80070663 and 64C

I am running x64 Vista on an HP Pavillion dv9000 laptop.
I was cleaning up my desktop when I saw a Word doc I didn't recognize. I tried to open it and got a Windows Installer window saying "Preparing to Install". I have an activated, legal version of Microsoft Office 2007. This is the first time
I've seen that window pop up. I let it try to install whatever it's trying to install and it comes up with an error: "This update package could not be opened. Verify that the update package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application
vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer update package." I am the administrator on this computer. I have full access to all files.
This prompts me to start Windows Update to see if that will fix it. That's where the error codes come in. The windows updates: "Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB959209) x64" and "Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service
Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243) yielded the error codes 80070663 and 64C.
I noticed when I press Start, the power button occasionally says "Installs Updates then Shuts Down". I didn't click it because I had work open I needed to work on later. Then when I left the computer and came back, the power button didn't have
the shield on it that said "Installs Updates then Shuts Down". I shut down my computer anyway and it didn't install any updates, and this is where I'm at. I've retried installing the updates via Windows Update and it still shows the original error
codes.
I've researched this error and came across Microsoft Fix It, downloaded as: "MicrosoftFixit.wu.LB.137269729445221149.2.1". I've run it and it did not solve the problem.
Please help,
Jake

Jake, did you ever find a solution to your problem? I'm afraid I can't help if you didn't, but I'm experiencing the same problem.
I also run Vista and had no problems until recently when I had an installation failure on 12th April 2014 for the same two updates:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB959209) x86 - (Installation status: Failed. Error details: Code 80070663)
Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243) - (Installation status: Failed. Error details: Code 64C)
I don't know whether it's these updates that caused the problem or an earlier update that has stopped these updates been installed. The PC is generally working but Word & Excel don't load any more. I get a 'Preparing to install' popup follwed by
the message: 'This update package could not be opened. Verify that the update package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer update package.'
If you did find a solution or any one else knows of one then I'd be very grateful.
Dave.

Windows Update Error (code: 80070490)

Dear Moderator,
I have a problem, i could not use windows update from 3 days ago. I've tried to fix it by system restore, but it didn't work.
I read the information at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958044, the problem may occur if there is corruption in the Component Based Servicing (CBS) manifest. But the only way to fix it.....I have to repair the instalation of my windows vista by the instalation dvd. Unfortunately, i didn't receive windows vista dvd when i bought my X61 (7676A14).
Dear Moderator, do you have any idea to fix it, please? Coz i already disapointed with this situation.
I hope that Lenovo could consider it and put the instalation file into "Support & Downloads".
Regards,
beJoe

I had a similar problem (with a different error code) and below is how I repaired it. In my case, the error turned out to be a mismatch among the windows update files (EXE and DLL) in the c:\windows\system32 folder.
From a Vista computer that WILL do windows updates, copy c:\windows\system32\wu*.* to a flash drive.
Insert the flash drive into the computer with the Windows update problem. On my TP, the flash drive was assigned drive letter F: so I'll use that drive letter in this message. If your system assigns a different drive letter, use that.
At this stage, you won't be able to copy the "good" files to the %windir%\system32 folder and will get "access denied" messages if you try. You probably will, however, see that some of the windows update files in the current %windir%\system32 folder are of different sizes or are older than the "good" files on the flash drive
For security reasons, MS is really serious about stopping anyone at all from writing to the System32 folder. You cannot take ownership of files in the directory through the GUI, but you can do so in a command window. You solve this problem as follows:
Open an elevated command prompt and run the following commands:
FIRST, TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE WU*.* files in the system 32 directory using this command.
takeown /f c:\windows\system32\wu*.*
NEXT, GIVE OWNERSHIP PRIVILEGES TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR GROUP using this command:
icacls c:\windows\system32\wu*.* /GRANT ADMINISTRATORS:F
Then, having vanquished the troublesome "access denied" message, run this command:
copy f:\wu*.* c:\windows\system32\*.*
When prompted, allow each current WU*.* file in the system32 to be overwritten.
On my ThinkPad, Windows Update worked after I performed the above steps.
If this makes you nervous, it should as you are messing with (and may mess up) the folder with some of the most important operating system files. If you're not experienced, get someone who is experienced to try this.
Oh, and by the way, run a rescue and recovery or other program to image your disk before you do any of these things.
Good luck.
