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.
6. In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution".
7. Right-click on the folder, select Rename and type "SDold" (without the quotes) to rename this folder.
8. While still in the "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type the command "net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) in the opened window to restart the Windows Updates service.
Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully started. However, if it failed, please let me know before performing any further steps and include any error messages you may have received when it failed.
If the issue persists, would you please upload the following information to SkyDrive and provide us the link for analyzing?
How to capture a screenshot
================================
1. Press the Print Screen key (PrtScn) on your keyboard.
2. Click the "Start" Button, type "mspaint" in the Search Bar and Press Enter.
3. In the Paint program, click the "Edit" menu, click "Paste". Then click the "File" menu, and click "Save".
4. The "Save As" dialogue box will appear. Type a file name in the "File name:" box, for example: "screenshot".
5. Make sure "JPEG (*.JPG;*.JPEG;*.JPE;*.JFIF)" is selected in the "Save as type" box, click "Desktop" on the left pane and then click "Save".
How to collect the System Information
================================
The System Information can provide us with more information about the current status of the system. I would like to check it for you. Please send it to me using the following steps:
1. Click the "Start" Button, type "MSINFO32" in the Search Bar and press Enter to start System Information.
2. On the popup window, on the menu bar, click "File", and click "Save", type a file name and then choose NFO as "Save as type", click "Desktop" on the left pane, and click Save.
How to collect the WindowsUpdate.log file
================================
1. Click the "Start" Button, type "WindowsUpdate.log" (without the quotes) in the Search Bar and Press Enter. We will see a file named "WindowsUpdate.log"
2. Now click on the "File" menu and then click on the "Save As".
3. From the left panel, click "Desktop" and click the Save button.

Error Code U44M1I200 for Ext. Mgr. update attempt.
How do I update Adobe Extension Manager CS6 ver. 6.0.3.48? I got Error Code U44M1I200 after a group update attempt. Other products OK.
There are two ways to update Extension Manager:
1. Through Adobe Application Manager:
1). Open "Adobe Application Updates" from tray area of your computer desktop (there should be a red icon there). If you can't find the red icon, you can start up one CS product, e.g., DW or PS, then click "Help"->"Updates..." menuitem to open it.
2) The "Adobe Extension Manager CS6" should be listed and checked in the new window. You can uncheck other items if you don't want to update them. Click "Update" button to apply all selected updates.
2. Manual update:
Download http://download.macromedia.com/pub/dw_exchange/extension_manager/win/AdobeExtensionManager -6_0_4-mul-AdobeUpdate.zip (You can find the link in http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/), unzip it then run AdobePatchInstaller.exe to manually update Extension Manager. -

Error Code 8007051a during Search of Updates - Vista Ultimate
Hello,
i have following error code during th search of updates: 8007051A. ifound nothing anywhere abut it, please help me.
elbepower.comHi,
Error: Indicates two revision levels are incompatible.Which Version of Windows Vista you have installed on your machine,OEM or RTM?
Please perform a cleanboot. A Clean Boot will allow us to isolate any device drivers or programs that are loading at startup that may be causing a conflict with other device drivers or programs that are installed in your computer.
1) Run MSCONFIG.EXE. (MSCONFIG is a built-in tool for Windows XP\2003 systems.)
2) In the Services tab, click "Hide All Microsoft Services" and click "Disable All".
3) In the Startup tab, click "Disable All". Click OK. (This will temporarily prevent third-party programs from running automatically during start-up.)
4) Restart the computer. Does the problem still persist?
If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to one application or service we have disabled. You can use the MSCONFIG tool again to re-enable the disabled item one by one to find out the culprit.
Also,please reintall Windows Update Agent for Windows Vista
X-86:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/WindowsUpdate/redist/standalone/7.0.6000.381/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe
X-64:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/WindowsUpdate/redist/standalone/7.0.6000.381/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe
After that please re-start "Windows Update" services.
You can do that by: type "services.msc" from a command prompt and find "Windows Update"
Hope it helps.

Running Mac OS X 10.7.2 on my MacBook Air, Control-Shift-W produces a Snow Leopard-like expose for all windows.
While useful, this keyboard shortcut is wreaking havoc with my BBEdit settings. (Control-Shift-W is used to toggle "Selected text only" in the "Find" window.)
Does anyone know a way to alter or disable this system shortcut? I haven't been able to find any information regarding this shortcut and I fear I may have altered an underlying property (using "defaults write…" at the command line) and I don't know how to revert what I (may) have done.
Thanks in advance.I suspect that it's busy trying to mount a network file system of some type.

Is there a range of error codes reserved for user defined error codes?
I would like to create my own error codes for a CVI dll but I want to make sure I don't use error codes already defined for something else. Is there a range reserved for such use?
Samee thing for warnings (errorcode > 0)
ThanksI have never found a positive mention of a "safe" range of error codes available for user-defined error conditions, but I can suggest you some source of informations.
First of all, every library has its specific list of error codes, usually listed in the relative include file. All these error codes are listed in the online help too (search for "error codes" in the index tab of the help).
Second, GetGeneralErrorString () is a function that can be used to trap errors of the following libraries with a unique error function:
User Interface Library
Easy I/O instrument driver
Toolbox instrument driver
ActiveX Library
DIAdem Connectivity Library
.NET Library
DataSocket instrument driver
Network Variable Library
Real-Time Utility Library
TDM Streaming Library
UDP Support Library
This means that the error codes from this libraries do not overlap, so you could derive from its code some ranges not used by these libraries.
Nevertheless, there is not a single function for error trapping: every library has its proper list of error codes and a function to decode them in human readable form, andthere is no guarantee that these ranges does not overlap. It's up to you to trap errors from every function in the proper way.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
