Windows Update prompt for definition updates

I have a FEP 2010 client that is prompting the end user with a Windows Update dialog when definition updates are available.  I checked his WU settings and he is currently set to download update, but let him choose when to install.  I thought this
was the issue, but a Win 7 computer has the same settings and doesn't prompt for the definition updates.  I have approximately 500 FEP clients installed and this is the only case where the end user is being prompted for definition updates.
Thanks for the help
John

This is old post and successor of FEP is System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP), I suggest try reproduce this issue in SCEP and check if it exist or not and if it exist, then post it as a new question.
You may also configure Endpoints to use directly update their Endpoint Protection and disable updating through Microsoft Update and see if that solve the problem.

  • Windows not prompting for username/password

    I'm trying to access my NAS200 via a Windows Vista Home Premium computer. It sees the drive but when I open it I can only access what's made available to 'guest'. I'm trying to login with the admin credentials so I can see shared folders that only admin has access to. 
    I tried mapping the drive and using the admin user/pass but that doesn't work either. If I try to access a folder directly such as \\nas200\private - windows says it doesn't exist when it clearly does. The only way I'm able to access my files at this point is through the web interface which is not good enough since I need to perform backups to a private folder.

    I went to edit a user and it wouldn't let me, so I powercycled and it worked. Now I want to change permissions on the folder for that user but when I click save the permissions do not save.
    When I updated the username to match my windows user profile name, it gave me share access based on the username in the NAS settings. It didn't ask for a password or anything. So in theory if I change my windows profile to admin then I'll have admin rights on the NAS.
    What the hell is going on here?

  • Vista Home Premium - Error code 80070490 - Windows update

    Computer - Satellite 200
    Operating system - Vista Home Premium (service pack 1)
    Problem - When I try to update from Windows Update (both manual and automatic) I get error code 80070490
    I have tried - System restore, downloading and paying for "RegCure" and following instructions on Microsoft forum all without success.
    The computer was supplied with a recovery disk which does not have "repair" facility.
    If you have a solution that does not involve a full re-load I would be very grateful
    Please make instructions comprehensible to a non-techno!
    Thank you

    This error may occur if the older Windows Update engine files cannot be
    replaced by Windows Update Agent 3.0 (7.0.6000.374).
    To troubleshoot this issue, I suggest we first reset permission and
    reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0.
    Step 1: Reset permission
    ================
    1. Please download the subinacl.msi file from the following link and save
    the installation patch onto the Desktop:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...inityDownloads
    2. Please go to the Desktop and double click the downloaded file.
    3. Please select the C:\Windows\System32 folder as the Destination Folder
    during the installation. Later we will use this tool to reset the permission
    settings on the current machine.
    Note: If UAC (User Account Control) window is prompted for permission to
    continue, please click Continue.
    4. Click the Start Button, in the Start Search bar, type: "notepad" (without
    quotes) and press Enter.
    5. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
    window:
    @echo off
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
    @Echo =========================
    @Echo Finished.
    @Echo =========================
    @pause
    6. After pasting the above commands, please close the Notepad window. Choose
    Save when you are prompted to save the file. Type "reset.bat" as the file
    name and choose Desktop from the left panel as the save location.
    7. Refer to the Desktop and right click the reset.bat file, then choose "Run
    as administrator."
    8. You will see a DOS-like window processing.
    NOTE: It may take several minutes, please be patient. When it is finished,
    you will be prompted with the message: "Finished, press any key to continue".
    Step 2: Reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0
    ===========================
    1. Please download the file from the following link:
    Windows Vista (32bit)
    http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x86.exe
    Windows Vista (64bit)
    http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x64.exe
    2. Save the file to D: drive.
    Note: Please select a drive where Windows Vista was not loaded because the
    file cannot be launched directly from the system root directory.
    3. Click Start->Run, type: "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce"
    (without quotations) and then press Enter to install the Windows Update
    engine.
    Note: There is a space between "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" and
    "/wuforce"
    Now, let's run Windows Update again.

  • What is "prompt for local work bench request"?

    Hi..I am new to SAP BI.Just now I started Practicals on BI.I am creating Info Area,after giving the technical name and long description for the info area,it is showing another window as "prompt for local work bench request"and asking "workbench request".what does it mean?why it is not creating the info area??
    Can anyone suggest me?
    Thanks & Regards.

    Hi,
    Seems like your working on ideas version.
    that prompt was pop up due to the standard transport procedure.
    When we work on real systems, all newly created or changed objects need to capture into transport and need to move across the landscape(Dev-->quality-->prod).
    You can turn off standard  transport procedure.
    log into BW, RSA1-->transport connection,
    From Menu Edit--->transport--> switch off standard.
    Thanks

  • Machine deployed from Windows 8.1 media with Update slipstreamed prompting for installation of KB2919355

    I'm preparing a "Windows 8.1 Update" OS deployment in SCCM and have encountered an issue.
    Here's what I did:
    Downloaded SW_DVD9_SA_Win_Ent_8.1_64BIT_English_-2_MLF_X19-49847.ISO from the Volume Licensing site
    Extracted install.wim from the ISO
    Mounted the WIM with DISM to add the KB2959977 package (as directed
    here, using
    these instructions)
    Deployed the image with SCCM
    After imaging a VM and booting it, I went into Windows Update and was prompted to install "Windows 8.1 Update for x64-based Systems (KB2919355)". It is my understanding the media I used should have the Windows 8.1 Update integrated into it. Can
    anyone explain why Windows Update is offering this update to be installed?
    Edit: Here's the output of "dism /image:mount /Get-Packages" ran against the WIM which confirms the KB2919355 package is applied to the WIM:

    The operation completed successfully.

    This is explained in this KB article, where it states:
    The MSDN and VLSC updated ISOs do not contain the complete set of fixes that are offered from Windows Update. Therefore, Windows Update and WSUS will offer the KB2919355 update again to computers that are deployed by using the images in these ISOs. This
    is expected and does not result in the full reinstallation of the Windows 8.1 Update but only one smaller component of it. The rest of the update will not be downloaded or reinstalled.
    Hope this helps,

    Hi Erez,
    Could you please share us the WindowsUpdate.log file here?
    From the information youposted, it seems to be Windows Update can't check for the updates, you may try to run Windows Update Troubleshooter first, it that didn't help, run the following command using the Windows 10 9926 ISO to repair:
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image
    /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:F:\sources\install.wim:1
    /LimitAccess
    F: Drive stands for the mounted Windows 10 build 9926 ISO.
    Best regards

  • Windows update could not check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.

    I restarted my computer but still have this issue.
    I changed the setting from "install updates automatically"  to "never check for updates". clicked ok and then changed back to "install updates automatically". Tried to check for updates and still receive the same error.
    Windows defender was turned off. I turned it on updated it but still receive the same error message.
    The background intelligent transfer service and windows update are set to "automatic delayed start" and the status for both is "started".
    I'm running windows 7 home premium 64 bit
    I ran the MGADIAG tool and here is the report (windows tab)

  • Windows update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.

    I've read through quite a few post and ran the MGADiag on the system in question.
    I tried turning Auto update on and off, rebooted, removed a ton of malware, and have scanned multiple times using Hiron's to make sure it's clean. After all that, it still gets the exact same error referenced in the subject line. At this point I'm in serious
    contention to do the 'upgrade' to repair the OS. Windows 7 Home Prem OA is listed on the tag attached to the tower.

  • HELP! Can't uninstall 8.1.2 Update - Keeps prompting for reboot

    I have Adobe Acrobat Standard. Version 8.1.0 came with the laptop. (Dell, XP, SP3)  So I updated to 8.1.2 and have no  ends of problems.  Though I have clicked on the "ok" to reboot to finish the update, it never connects that it has rebooted.
    So I tried to uninstall the 8.1.2 update.  Unfortunately the Control Panel says that the "original is not installed" and won't let me continue. So I can't uninstall from there.
    I then downloaded the Microsoft Install Clean Up utility which is recommended in other threads.  The original 8.1.0 is there and can be deleted. Unfortunately 8.1.2 is nowhere to be seen!!  So I can't remove it from there.I do also have Photoshop CS3 installed which seems to have a variety of other items listed for it.
    I have tried downloading the 8.1.2 update patch but when you try and run it, it says that there is no Adobe installed. Well that isn't true. I have 8.1.0 installed. You just can't update it or repair it because it keeps prompting for the never ending reboot.  I have tried uninstalling, reboot, re-installing 8.1.0 (via control panel AND MS install clean up) with no luck.
    So right now I'm trying to get rid of the 'computer needs to reboot' problem which I think might be tied to the failed install of 8.1.2.

    I asked on another site and actually got an answer that worked for me. Well... Sort of. This stopped the endless re-boot. Now I have to figure out why I can't manually update. It may be a result of the aborted 8.1.2 update. I'm going to try and uninstall again and start from scratch... again.
    The answers I got there I wanted to share here so others may use them.
    First Answer:
    The issue is seems to be with SP3 and Adobe Standard 8.1 update. The same issue I had experienced on Vista. Following are simple suggestion.
    1. Clean Install after reg clean -- may or may not work .Depends on SP3 and Adobe Standard compatibility.
    2. Remove Update from Start up and manually download the patches. 
            (note: Run; MSCONFIG; Startup Tab; deselect Adobe Updater; Ok; restart)
    3. Roll back to SP2 and check . Should work fine as it doing on one of my old PC.
    Second Answer: (Note:  Removing the "AdobeUpdater" from msconfig Startup tab worked for me.)
    Try the following: 
    - Click the Start button and select Run. 
    - Type in "msconfig" (without the double quotes) and click the OK button.
    - A new window will appear with several tabs near the top. Select the Startup tab.
    - Find an entry named AdobeUpdater (or similar) and remove the checkmark for it.
    - Click the OK button, which will close the window. Now restart your computer.
    I hope this will help. The drawback is that you will have to manually update Adobe Acrobat (which generally isn't a major issue).

  • I keep gettin sign in prompts for iCloud since I updated to Yosemite

    I keep getting sign in prompts for iCloud since I updated to Yosemite.  I repeatedly get them for Face Time and iMessage also. Haven't found any way to stop them.  I click cancel on every one and then they show up again about 5 seconds later. I finally have been simply putting the window at the bottom of the screen.  What can I do to stop these password sign in request windows?

    I'd love a solution to this, as well

    Every time we make any changes to any of our Group Policies most of our clients stop getting their Windows Updates from the WSUS server within 2-3 days. This occurs when we add a new policy for a group of users, temporarily disable a policy or edit a policy.
    Check of the WindowsUpdate.log on affected client machines shows:
    2014-06-25 13:40:44:976  760 1610 PT WARNING: GetAuthorizationCookie failure, error = 0x80072EE2, soap client error = 5, soap error code = 0, HTTP status code = 200

    A further check of the log files shows:
    2014-06-21 19:36:06:995  156 1b0c Misc WARNING: SendRequest failed with hr = 80072ee2. Proxy List used: <proxy server name:8080> Bypass List used : <(null)> Auth Schemes used : <>
    We do not use a proxy except for Internet connections. We configure IE with a pac file. This is set through Group Policy since we restrict user accounts from being able to set it. 
    The clients that are connecting to the WSUS server have these entries instead:
    2014-06-24 09:12:16:779  992 270 Agent Setting download properties on call A20329BC-3467-4B7E-B9F4-6AC6ACBA23E1: priority=3, interactive=1, owner is system=0, proxy settings=1, proxy session id=2
    I have a routine that will fix the problem but it is time-consuming and pulls me away from other things I should be doing:
    Run registry files on client machine (WindowsUpdate and AU) This is not always necessary and is already set by Group Policy and the affected clients already have the registry settings. No idea why it is necessary to do but it the steps below don't always
    work unless it is.
    netstop bits and netstop wuauserv
    ipconfig /flushdns
    Delete qmgr*.* files from Downloader folder
    Delete Software Distribution folder
    Run from command prompt:
    sc.exe sdset bits D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;AU)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;PU)
    sc.exe sdset wuauserv D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;AU)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;PU)
    netstart bits and netstart wuauserv
    wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow
    Run Windows Updates again from Control Panel
    This routine always fixes the problem but I've found that I must do each step to guarantee success.
    How or where is the proxy setting being changed for WSUS that we see in the WindowsUpdate logs and how do I prevent this from happening? It is also curious that it happens to most but not all of the client machines. When it does happen it's not always the
    same client machines.

    You're right - the WSUS server is on the inside and does not need a proxy server. Tried running the netsh winhttp reset proxy command but was still not able to connect to the WSUS server. After running the netsh winhttp reset proxy command received response:
    Current WinHTTP proxy setting: Direct access <no proxy server>.
    Ran the command at 13:49 and then tried Windows Updates again. Here's snippet from the log file:

  • Error code 80070308 for all windows update

    Hi,
    I'm unable to install any kind of update. The install finishes with the following message : Unknown error code 80070308.
    My system info is as follows:
    OS: win7 Pro 32-bit, downloaded from ms website
    Processor: AMD Athlon XP2400+ @ 2.66 GHz
    RAM: 1GB
    I already saw this similar topic "VPC7 install failure: Prior to restart " but there is no solution.
    Thanks !

    Hi Deguich,
    Generally, the Windows Update issue can be caused by one of the following factors:
    1. The Windows Update service has been stopped.
    2. Corrupted Windows Update Temporary folder.
    In order to narrow down the cause of this issue and resolve it, I suggest you refer to the following steps. After finishing each step, you can check the result again.
    NOTE: Some third party programs can affect the Windows Update service. If you are running any third party applications such as Spyblocker, Internet or web accelerators (programs designed to boost the speed of the Internet connection), security or anti-virus programs (Norton, McAfee, etc.), I recommend we temporarily disable or shut them down and then try accessing Windows Update later. Please understand that we are disabling these programs only for the purpose of troubleshooting and we can re-enable these programs after we finish troubleshooting.
    Step 1: Verify the relevant Windows Update services
    ================================
    1. Click the "Start" Button, in “Search" bar, type: "services.msc" (without quotes) and press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. Double click the service "Windows Update".
    3. Click on the "General" tab; make sure the "Startup Type" is "Automatic" or "Manual". Then please click the "Start" button under "Service Status" to start the service.
    4. Please repeat the above steps with the "Background Intelligent Transfer Service" service.
    You can also temporarily stop these services, restart the computer, and then start these services again. If any service is missing or cannot be stopped or restarted, please let me know.
    Step 2: Rename the Windows Update Softwaredistribution folder
    ================================
    This problem may occur if the Windows Update Software distribution folder has been corrupted. We can refer to the following steps to rename this folder. Please note that the folder will be re-created the next time we visit the Windows Update site.
    1. Close all the open windows.
    2. Click the "Start" Button, click "All programs", and click "Accessories".
    3. Right-click "Command Prompt", and click "Run as administrator".
    4. In "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type in "net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully stopped before we try to rename the folder. However, if it fails, please let me know before performing any further steps and include any error messages you may have received when it failed.
    5. Click the Start Button, in the “Search" bar, type in "%windir%" (without the quotes) and press Enter.

  • Gutterball Bowling Game Keeps Prompting For Update Every Week

    Hey Adobe,
    I am running Firefox 16 with Adobe Shockwave Player, the latest version.  About every 7 days, I get a prompt to update Shockwave Player when I play Gutterball 3D at this site:
    http://www.shockwave.com/contentPlay/shockwave.jsp?id=gutterball&refCode=&brand=ag
    There is no evidence of virues or malware on my computer and my Windows XP is up-to-date.  Both Shockwave Player and Flash Player are the latest versions, so I don't know if it is something with the game or a bug.  Feel free to test.  Thanks!

    Hi,
    As per the information and details provided by you, to solve the Outlook 2010 password problem, please follow these steps: -
    Firstly, you try to
    change the profile.
    Open Control panel/Mail/Select the profile and click Properties.
    Select the mailbox and click the
    Change button.
    When inside the profile you will see tabs at top for
    connection and security.
    Please make sure you have selected
    Negotiate authentication, and have unchecked the box that states
    Always prompt for login credentials.
    Then check if you are using
    HTTP to connect with exchange, if so uncheck this and apply the changes.
    Close Outlook if open and reopen Outlook.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

    Hi Goyal,
    Thank you very much for your reply. The Outlook settings are the same as you described. We do use HTTP to connect to Exchange. I unchecked it and see what happens tomorrow. but just FYI. All Outlook has the same settings with HTTP connection checked. Only
    two specific accounts have the credential issue.
    Will update you tomorrow.
    Thanks,
    Grace
