Windows Update 80072EE2 after Factory recovery

Hello everyone!
   I just did a complete factory recovery on a Lenovo 3000 K100, with Windows Vista Home Premium 32bits.
The recovery was successeful. (I used the Recovery partition that came from the Lenovo)
The device manager has nothing wrong.
But when I try to do a Windows Update, I have the error 80072EE2
Installed Microsoft Security Essentials, and when triyng to update it, the update fail, telling me that the connection timed out. (please note that I was able to download it online)
I can surf on the web, go on different websites, but when I go to Microsoft website, it takes time before the webpage loads sometime!
Some people said that I should remove the UseWUServer (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU) from my registery, but this key is missing in my registery. I cannot find it.
So, tried other fixes suggested in forums, like reset my internet settings (but it's a fresh windows install)
Tried in cmd "net stop wuauserv" and then "start" ... the service is running normally...
In services, Windows Update is on Automatic (Delayed) Running. (I even changed it to Automatic)
I renamed the Hosts file, and flushed the DNS. The Hosts file should be generated automatically after being removed.
There is no Third party Firewall. The only antivirus installed, is Microsoft Security Essentials.
There is no softwares installed after the Factory Recovery.
I tried to ping www.google.com, and there is 25% loss, with a connection timed out, after two responses.
There is a 100% loss when I ping microsoft.com, with a connection timed out.
I tried to disable WIndows FIrewall, but doesn't solve the problem.
I reset Internet explorer settings again... Nothing is solved.
There is no PROXY in the LAN Settings, of Internet explorer...
Uninstalled the Network drivers (in device manager), and reinstalled them... problem not solved...
So, does anyone have an idea? I'm out of solutions...
What's weird is that it's a Fresh Factory recovery, it should be free of issues... ??

This might be a dumb question, but did you try to let MS fix it automatically?

  • Dv6-2170eo windows update fails after recovery

    I have a HP dv6-2170eo netbook with Windows 7 Home premium (64-bit). My origin hard drive (640GB) failed and I replaced it with 1TB hard drive. I used the recovery DVD's that I made when I bought the laptop and then reloaded Windows 7 on the new hard drive.
    After reloading ,  Windows Update does not work.
    This is the error I get:
    Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.
    I can't even install Windows Defender or Microsoft Security Essential
    Intel Chipset driver from 2009-06-04
    My internet access is OK.
    I have restarted my netbook and the error is the same.
    I have reloaded Windows 7 and the error is the same
    Please help me

    I had the same problem with an HP G72. If you have an Intel Chipset, goto Intels website and download there "Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver" and install it. I had the exact same problems and this fixed them. For some unknown reason this driver is not available on HP's website. I just Googled the driver and it took me straight to Intels website where I downloaded it. Get the driver that you can run from within windows and not the one that runs from a floppy.
    Good Luck,

  • Windows update fails after reverting to factory image

    you need to save it as a .reg file instead of a .txt file, so the icon changes here is a handy link on how to achieve this: http://www.mediacollege.com/microsoft/windows/extension-change.html

    I recently reverted my computer back to the factory image which is Windows 8. I previosly had upgraded to Windows 8.1 and was trying to upgrade again to Windows 10 and that kept failing so I reverted back to factroy image to get a fresh start. Now when I try to get back to Windows 8.1 so that I can then upgrade to Windows 10, the Windows update keeps failing and I am stuck in Windows 8. The Windows Store says I can update to Windows 8.1 but that I have to run all the updates for Windows 8 first. After loaing the factory image, I run Windows Update and the Windows Update program does install a new Windows Update Program. After that, I run Windows Update and it finds 165 updates. When I download and install those, they fail and the system reverts back to Windows 8. Will 165 updates, is there a certal order I should install them? Is there another way to get back to Windows 8.1?   

  • HP Pavilion dv6 1334us won't start after windows update, stuck in Error Recovery

    My computer is an HP Pavilion dv6 1334us with 32bit-windows 7. The computer did automatic updates and when it started up said there was another one avaliable through WIndows Updater. I installed the update and it said the computer needed to restart for the update to take effect. I choose to restart and the computer wouldn't boot back up, it boots to the 'Windows Error Recovery' screen where my options are 'Launch Startup Repair (recommended)' and 'Start Windows Normally'. When I select the repair, it says it loads windows files, then goes back to the error recovery screen. When I choose to start normally, it freezes the second it trys to start, flashes a blue screen and then returns to the Error Recovery page again.

  • Can't install itunes on XP after factory recovery

    hi everybody,
    This is a bizarre issue that became a problem. on a t500 after a xp factory recovery,  update OS, install normal app, office, qbooks, etc.. I download iTunes 8 last version,  double click to install and the first weird sign was a message to run but said “unknown publisher “  after click run, nothing happens. It won’t do anything. It won’t log anything on system or app logs. User has admin local priv, I tried install on local comp, safe mode, different local user, domain admin. Nothing. Last thing I tried was download iTunes version 7 and it did install, but I need the 8 because prior library setup.
    Does anybody have a clue??  Is driving me crazy.
    Thanks a lot.  

    Welcome to lenovo user forums!

  • Freezes during "starting windows" message even after factory reset.

    I've gone through diagnostic tests and they've shown it wasn't a hardware error. After a failed update to windows 10 my computer rolled back to windows 7. After the rollback when attempting to boot win 7 It froze and hung on the starting windows screen.  At first i was able to boot in safe mode and navigate the desktop and drivers, but after plenty of failed fixes i had to result to a factory reset with alienrespawn. After the factory reset the issue still persists, and i can no longer boot up in safe mode. When i do, it tries to do first time installation and says that i has to reboot in normal mode to complete first time config. My computer didn't come with a disk so i can't re-install windows 7, and factory reset dosen't seem to fix the issue. All I need is to resolve this issue so i can get back with a clean slate to upgrade to windows 10. Any ideas?

  • After factory recovery HDD is only partly recognized

    Hi,
    Could someone please help?
    After a full factory recovery my Pavilion dv7 netbook does not recognizes its HDD well. It shows the hdd's size is only 92GB instead of 931GB. Check shows everything is Ok. Attached a screenshot below. Any idea why is that and how to fix it?
    Thanks a lot.
    Solved. Cheers.

    it might be worth checking to see if the ipoddriver.kext has gone skunky on your Mac. for some more info about the symptoms of that, see:

  • Pavilion dv7 4050ed - Windows Update Problems After First Installation

    I have only just today received my brand new HP Pavilion dv7 4050ed and commenced installation straight away.  There were no problems in the initial installation and I booted Windows for the first time successfully and let it do its auto installs for things like Java and Adobe Reader.  I then moved to update and patch the laptop with Windows Update but immediately noticed that something was wrong.  Upon opening Windows Update I was met with a white cross in a red shield to signify an error.  When I prompted it to "Check for Updates" I was met with an error message stating, "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running.  You may need to restart your computer."  I get the same error message when I try to run Windows Live Messenger.
    After multiple restarts and checking in the control panel that the update service was allowed and working, the error message still appears whenever I try to update or patch my machine.  How can this kind of thing happen to a brand new machine that I've had for less than a day and has only had its basic settings chosen?  It simply will not update, or even recognize that the update service is available.  The internet is fully functional so it isn't any kind of connection problem.
    Has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem could be?
    I probably should just add that the laptop is a Dutch purchase with a bilingual setup.  I chose the English setup option but was advised to include this information in case it could in any way affect the update system.

    HP support provided me with the following link:

  • Windows Update Fails After fresh install

    All,
    Complete new installation of Windows 7 Pro on a X200 Tablet version.  All ok, able to run all MS updates without any problems.  After installing Lenovo System update and running the actual updates, I suddenly can't run Microsoft Update any longer, showing following error msg:  "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running.  You possibly have to restart the pc"
    Offcourse I have tried rebooting, no success.
    Intel drivers are installed, as suggested on another page.  Currently running a systems restore to moment prior of System Update installation.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    System is now working properly, even with Lenovo System Update.  Refusing to install the Intel drivers is indeed the solution.  And the system runs smooth.
    So thanks for the info!

  • Windows not genuine after factory reset

    Hey guys, 
    So i have a Toshiba Satellite A505-S6005 that i have owned all 4 years of college. On sunday i restored my computer back to how it was when i bought it by pressing the 0 key on start up. I followed the on screen instructions and wiped everything to start fresh. Everything went smoothly and i was able to do all 200+ windows updates and my computer was working perfectly. Then on tuesday a window pops up saying that my windows is not genuine. I checked my system properties in the control panel and there its says under windows activation at the bottom "Status not available" and "Product ID: Not Available". So i go to the start menu and try to run "Activate Windows" and i recieve an error code 0xC0020012. 
    I attached a screen shot of the error message as well as my system properties to show the status is not available and no product ID available. 
    Please can someone help me with this issue.

  • Satellite M105 Won't load Windows desktop after factory recovery

    Sorry this is a long post but I have to explain my situation.  I have a Satellite M105 that I purchased in the exchange on a US Military base in Germany in August 2008.  The laptop was an open box system that the store employee said had been sent in for repair.  I was told it came with the full factory warranty.  I had the sales person start the laptop just to make sure it worked and the laptop booted to the Windows XP initial setup screen.  I took the laptop home and put it away as I wanted to save it as a gift for a family member.  A few days before I was going to pack the gift laptop up to mail it, I decided to try it out.  I powered the laptop up and went through the Windows XP setup sequence to agree to the EULA and set up automatic updates.  When the setup was completed the laptop restarted and started to load XP.  Before the desktop loaded a BSOD flashed momentarily and the computer restarted.  Now every time I attempt to start the laptop I get a Windows message "The system was not fully installed.  Please run setup again."  I returned the laptop to the store and they sent it in for repair under warranty in April 2009.  I got the laptop back on Oct 5 2009 with a letter that stated the laptop was not under warranty and the hard drive was defective and the repair cost would be 140Euro (approx $210).  When I purchased the laptop I was told the laptop had been sent in for a "start up " problem but it had been repaired and fully tested.  I replaced the hard drive today and used the recovery disks to restore the system but guess what.  I got the same error message with the new hard drive.  I suspect the laptop had a defective motherboard all along but the Toshiba Authorized Repair Center doesn't want to admit they never fixed it correctly the first time.  Anyone here have any suggestions?

    Hello
    Your story is pretty confusing. It is full of different information but we dont know which operating system do you use and has your notebook factory settings or not.
    Is there some reason why your notebook acts so strange? Have you done anything that can be responsible for this? Can you start OS or not.
    >... sometimes get "program cannot start press ok to turn off the computer".
    How to understand sometimes? Which program? What happen when you press power button?
    Sorry but I dont know how to understand all this and start with discussion.
    Missing F8 option is also very confusing.
    Try please to set BIOS to default settings and try to start OS again.

  • Restore Photoshop Elements 2 updates lost after System Recovery

    I have a copy of Photoshop Elements 2 that came over on the Mayflower in my computer... Last week I had to do a system recovery (restoring to factory settings).  I was able to load in the disc without trouble, but the updates to the original software are no longer available.   How can I restore the updates I've used and enjoyed over the past what...7 years?  Is there a "Key" I can buy, a secret handshake...or maybe a guy who knows somebody who knows a guy?
    The program was running in XP....  Stop laughing.

  • Pavilion dv6 wont start after factory recovery.

    Hello,
    I made factory reset using HP recovery manager ( try both: clean copy or factory default copy with software), and the process finish ok. But after restart windows cant start and stuck on windows logo, if I try safe mode, it stops at message: "You cannot finish the instalation in safe mode restart the PC and finish the installation" . It seems that the "first time use" installation process is corrupted. The HDD and memory tests  finish without error. Also tried the Hard reset (Unplug the AC remove the battery and hold power on for 30 sec.) but did not help.
    Thanks for help.
