Unable to install Windows 8 updates error code 0x800736B3 and 0x80246007.
Hi
I am having issues with the Asus Transformer tablet/laptop TX300CA.
It comes with Windows 8 Pro.
After downloading windows 8 updates, it doesn't want to install all of the software updates.
I received an error code such as 0x800736B3.
Can anyone help???
Is there methods to solve this issues???
Andre,
Can't do that now. The owner is giving up with Microsoft and stick with his trusty MAC OS X!
His Asus Transformer TX300CA indeed have Windows 8.1 driver support. I did check with ASUS website.
However I did many tests base on Microsoft Support Knowledge base.
I even try the Microsoft Fix it. It too didn't work.
The Asus Transformer TX300CA is using Windows 8 Pro OEM version.
There is a possibility that his Windows 8 is corrupted.
I try to find the "C:\Windows\winsxs\poqexec.log". No where to be found.
The strange part is The ASUS Transformer TX300CA cannot install any updates patches of Windows 8!!!
I come to know that many people are having this issues regardless which laptop brand they are using.
However I did it with ease on a Lenovo laptop.
The process of having upgrading to Windows 8.1 via Windows Apps Store is very tedious and long process. It's very very slow. Not unless you have a High Broadband speed.
It's very time consuming. It's not a good method of upgrading to Windows 8.1.
My Suggestion to Microsoft to release a FREE DVD upgrade disc to all of it's customers.
You have to bare in mind that not everyone in the world is using a High Speed Broadband network.
In some country they still using a clunky old 24,33.6,56K modem.
How are they going to do the 3.8GB of upgrade to Windows 8.1. It will take them months to complete the tasks.

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,
JakeJake, 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.

Windows Updates Error Codes 80070308 and 80070643
Recently I have a problem with windows updates patches for this month (June 2014). I updated 10 computers (at office), 9 of them have either the error codes 80070308 and/or 80070643. I tried to disable the Symantec Endpoint, used the Microsoft
.NET Framework Repair Tool to fix the .Net Framework related error but still have failure. I can still finish all the failed patches by rescanning the PC than install them; however; I still have 40 PCs need to be patched. How do I prevent
the installation failure, all the PCs have no problem at last month. Any suggestion, many thanks.Hi,

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 JohnsonHi,
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 8 fails to install EVERY update, error code 0x800f0922
So I had to do a System Repair thing where Windows would repair itself and removing all my apps but keep my documents, photos and music etc. So I was reinstalling every program again and also wanted to install the updates.
But I ran into 0x800f0922 error code and I couldnt install them. (I run Windows 8.1 Pro) I was trying to install Adobe Photoshop but couldnt continue cuz .NET framework 3.5 was required. But after trying to manually download + install I got
the same error (0x800f0922). I've tried almost every cmd command but couldnt fix it. (im a kinda noob on it anyways)
Any help would be appreciated!I did that and it told me it succeeded, but I also tried to manually install net framework with DISM but gave me the same error.. And I reinstalled Windows trying the repair, refresh and reset options, nothing helped. I did not yet tried a clean installation.

I built a few new Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 VMs today and ran into a problem where Windows Update is not detecting the fact that Internet Explorer 9 is already installed. Internet Explorer 9 keeps showing up as an available update when
using Windows Update. When I try to install it as a test I get the error message: Code 9C48 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.
My normal build procedures include applying all the patches for the OS prior to any other work on the servers. The way I like to do the patching is to do every update other then IE9 in the begininng and once all the other updates have been
completed, install IE9 and then patch it if there are updates available. I followed this procedure on every build for the last year and I have not run into any issues until today. The only difference today is the latest patches that were released yesterday
April 10th, 2012. To test the theory that it may be one of the latest patches, I reinstalled Windows from scratch making sure to format the disks and then I installed IE9 right after the OS install without any other updates. Once the
server was rebooted, I checked Windows Update and Internet Explorer 9 still showed up as update (Not the Cumulative Update which normally shows up after an IE9 install) and yes, I did make sure to click the 'Check for Updates' link before I looked just
in case. My next test was to patch a couple of the servers I had built prior to April 10th, 2012. Those servers did not have any issues with the latest updates and they are not experiencing the same behavior as the newly built servers.
I ended up comparing the IE9 Version on the cleanly install OS (No updates were installed except IE9) and the servers I built last week which were patched. The versions are exactly the same.
My findings above lead me to believe that there is a problem with the latest IE9 install package (which includes the latest cumulative update) and the Windows Update detection component.
I guess I am looking for someone to report this up the chain to get this fixed so no one else runs into this problem. I know in some cases we may not be able to see additional IE9 updates until this is resolved.I just started having the same problem.
I was creating a new VM in Vsphere from our 2008 R2 SP1 image and it hasn't been updated and repacked in a while, so i have to install about 60 updates, including IE9.
I went through my normal setup as i had just created 2 VMs and updated them on Monday with no problem.
I got the same error code as you. The install looks like it installed IE9, but the update is still showing up as available in Windows Update.
I deleted the VM, created a new one, chose all updates except IE, then did that and it still shows up again.
Then i deleted the VM, installed just IE 9 and it still shows up as available on reboot.
I have a script that i can use to reset/clear WSUS cache on the computer, (Software distribution folder, and the windows update log, and recreates a certificate), so i tried that and then rebooted and it still showed up.
I then decide ok, maybe the Image got messed up somehow, so i started creating a new 2008 R2 install from scratch last night and chose to update just IE9 as the first install. I did that, rebooted and it didn't show up in Windows Updates, so i though GREAT.
I proceed to kick off the 100+ downloads needed before i left and left the console up.
When i got in to work this morning, the updater seemed stuck on 31 of 102 updates, this one in particular: KB288516. I rebooted the computer, because it wouldn't stop and just seemed stuck since last night, which these updates should only have taken about
an hour to install at most. I log back in and sure enough, it now shows Internet Explorer 9 at the bottom of the update list as being needed for install.
I believe this is Patch Tuesday week, so maybe they screwed up something with the Windows Update detection engine, because it worked fine on Monday when i had to update IE9 on 2 VMs that i created. -
Windows unable to check/download updates - error code: 80070005
Hi,
my laptop top (Satellite Pro) hasn't downloaded or installed any updates since january and it hasn't been running very well lately.
When I click "try again" on the window update page, I just get the same error again and again.
Windows help website said it would be a problem with my computer as it came with Vista home basic already installed on it.
Any help would be greatly appreicated!Hi!
Searching in the Microsoft Knowledge Base takes only few minutes and so I have founded this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883825/
Its not the same error code as you have but to solve the problem you should disable the antivirus program and maybe also the firewall.
Check this!
