8 to Windows 8.1 the whole problem about this updates start.

Why do I lose my webcam after a Windows 7 (64 bit) Windows Defender update?

I have a DV6-2150us with Windows 7 (64). quite often after a Windows defender update, I lose my webcam. During this time, I get an "unknown USB device" in Device Manager. I keep uninstalling this "unknown device".
If I do a "scan for new hardware, I get the "unknown device" back. I have tried updating the device drivers with video drivers, that were recommended in other postings. That didn't work. I have tried reinstalling the HP Webcam software, but then it can't locate the webcam.
Any suggestions?

Windows defender update 20 july 2013

I have had a number of problems with the latest windows defender updates 1.155.29.0, 311.0 and 565.0 which has meant i have had to restore my system three times as when i installed it first mcafee and broadband did not connect. I have managed to restore and hide these updates. The update was 20mb. Has anyone else experience conflict with this ?

What Windows system are you using?
If it's Windows 8 then Windows Defender is an antivirus program that is turned on by default. If you installed BTNetprotect/McAfee it should have turned off Defender when it was installed but it could be that rather than turning it off they are conflicting and this has been aggravated when you installed the update.
If that is the case my advice would be to uninstall BTNetprotect. It can cause problems on some computers and hogs resources. Windows Defender is a capable antivirus program.
If you are using another Windows version then Windows Defender should only be working as an anti-malware program and should work alongside BTNetprotect/McAfee however I would still advise uninstalling it for the above reasons and installing another free antivirus program such as Microsoft Security Essentials, Avast Free or AVG 2013 free.
If you do decide to uninstall BTNetprotect follow this guide and remember to use the uninstall BTNetprotect tool after you have restarted your computer.

Windows live Update error

I have a E61 and have finally found a Windows live installation but it keeps coming up with update error and will not install. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is. The nokia installer has the code 544. If anyone can help I would be most gratefull.

I have now found the correct version of windows live from microsoft and not the dodgy chinese version I kept hearing about. It works perfectly over WLAN (saves booting the PC) and has all the features of normal messenger.
If anyone would like to download this it can be found at this address.
http://www.symbianv3.com/files/WindowsLive_for_Series60_3rd.zip
If you do download this there is a little note that says read first. Please make sure you read this as the installation comes in two parts and if you get it the wrong way around it will not work.
Hope this helps someone

Windows 7 Update Error 66A

I have tried several times to install a Windows 7 update but it always fails with an error 66A. Can anyone provide a solution?

I don't know if this is in anyway relevant to the problem here but:-
If a windows update has failed and it is reported in control panel>windows update in the update history then clicking on troubleshooting problems opens a help window with the first entry being "click to open windows update troubleshooter". This program must "clean up" something and the update often then installs. I also don't know if the failed update has to be reported in the history for the program to clean it up.

Windows 7 update error 0x80070057

So I am having issues updating my Windows 7.
Whenever I try to manually update it gives me an error where it says
"Windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running."
I tried to troubleshoot Windows update and it came with a few errors unfixed.
"Problems installing recent updates"
"windows update error 0x80070057"
What is the best way going about fixing this, I could not find solutions online that work for me

Tried both suggestions with and without running safe mode:
Open-the-Windows-Update_troubleshooter found issues running is safe mode, but 0x80070057 was not fixed, and "problems installing recent updates also not fixed. Also, "Corrupt files detected", but no indication what they were. Rebooted and re-ran,
again in safe mode, with the same result.
Moved on to .../kb/971058/en-us and ran Fix-It. "Troubleshooting cannot continue because an error has occurred." Ran the tool to diagnose the troubleshooting failure: "Troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem"
Yikes!
Problems started with "Scorpion Saver Services adware being detected and tried to get rid of it. I don't know if the problems with updates were occurring before or after that. During the process of trying to delete the adware malware, "Malwarebytes"
discovered 13 malware issues. I also installed Windows 7 SP1, but had to do it manually.
Still cannot update ...

Firefox 13.0.1 (Win7 ) crashes after Windows defender update applied

Windows 7 SP1
Firefox 13.0.1
Upgraded to FF 13.0.1 with no problems encountered. The next day I restarted the system and installed the Windows Defender definition update released on 6/15 (11.27.2061.0 - KB915597) via Windows Update. After applying the update FF crashed immediately upon starting several times. I rebooted the system - no change. I then applied the restore point created just before the Defender update was applied, rebooted, and was able to start FF normally.
Here's the crash info from one of the crashes:

Does it help if you create a new profile or uninstall and reinstall Firefox?
If you reinstall Firefox then be sure to remove the Firefox program folder to remove possibly left over files in it.
You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

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.
