Windows update process deletes a driver

Hello,
Windows 7 SP1
Our antivirus (TrendMicro OfficeScan 11)has some specific driver in "\system32\drivers" folder. For some reason this driver will get removed after "patch tuesday". Not every "patch tuesday" but sometimes. Does anyone have a
glue what might happend? Does anyone have an idea what triggers this removal? After patching Windows,  this file is just deleted and AV complains that it can not load this driver. TrendMicro support says that this must be a OS problem, not AV problem.

Hi,
Personally, I recommend you enable restore point in a machine to test this issue, we need to find out whether it it the "Windows patch" that causes this issue. As I know, Windows updates have been passed many tests before they're released
to the end users, they should not cause any issues.
Meanwhile, have you tried to reinstall the TrendMicro OfficeScan 11 as a test? or contact the TrendMicro support and see if they have any ideas about this issue

  • Windows 8.1 hangs in Windows Update trying to get driver

    We have added a Surface Pro 3 running 64 bit Win 8.1 to our home network.  Our desktop running XP has an HP LaserJet 1200 printer attached via USB and it is shared. Our notebook running XP has no problem printing to the LaseJet 1200. On the Surface when trying to add the printer Win 8.1 finds the LaserJet 1200 and invokes Windows Update, presumably to download a 64 bit driver for the printer. Windows Update hangs, that is runs and does not stop. We've let it run for nearly an hour before ending it. I've looked at the HP site for drivers and it seems to imply that Windows Update is the correct way to get th driver we need. Is there another way to do this?

    Hello oldrah,

  • MDT 2012 Windows update Process

    Hi
    I'm using the Windows update Pre & post steps in my sequences. It always worked ok but now It see in the log:
    "The action (Windows Update (Pre-Application installation)) initiated a reboot request    
    After reboot my TS isn't working correct anymore because it now needs an extra reboot and the autoadmin logon only allows 2.
    I could raise this value to 3 but if one day I decide to add those updates in the image, it will auto logon 1 time to many so you see my problem.
    Is there a way to supress the reboot of this process?
    Or how do you guys handle this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I don't use autoadmin logon at all. Don't use that at all. The system will login every time, until the TS is done.
    The problem with that is that is stays loged in once the TS is complete.
    To solve this, your final line in CustomSettings.ini should read "FinishAction=LOGOFF" or even "FinishAction=REBOOT". The TS will then do one final logoff/reboot once it is done and just be at the "C+A+D" login screen when done.
    As for the WSUS reboot, just leave that; it's by design...
    Hope this helps,
    Martin

  • Windows update fails to install graphic driver

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem, I recently installed Windows 10 Technical build 9926.
    Windows update shows me that there is a update available for my Nvidia geforce GT 520 M card.
    If I install the driver the installation fails.  I have tried this for a couple of times but the problem stays.
    Does anyone have a solution for this problem.
    My System specifications are:
    Windows 10 Technical preview build 9926 ( upgrade from windows 8.1 via windows update)
    RAM: 6 GB
    CPU: Intel Core i5 2430M
    GPU: Nvidia geforce GT 520M

    For what it's worth, as a rule, I NEVER install the video drivers offered via Windows Update. They have always been bad news for me. Case in point: I just upgraded my Dell Optiplex 9030 AiO to the Win 10 Ent Preview Build 9926. This PC has an AMD Radeon
    R7 M265 video chipset in it, and the system automatically went to Windows Update to get the driver for it. As soon as the driver activated, the screen went blank and stayed that way. The only way to fix it was to roll back the the driver installation
    with System Restore. When the PC rebooted, I unplugged the network cable so it couldn't attempt to install the flaky driver again. I downloaded the latest drivers from AMD directly and installed them. That fixed the problem.
    So, my advice to you is to use the latest Windows 8/8.1 drivers for your card from the manufacturer's website. DO NOT USE VIDEO DRIVERS THAT ARE OFFERED VIA WINDOWS UPDATE. Other hardware drivers are usually okay, but the video drivers always seem to
    be whacked in some way.

  • Windows 8.1 Professional x64: Windows will not run Windows Update after fresh install

    Greetings everyone.  I'm having a strange issue that I can't seem to figure out.  I'm developing an image with the following specs:
    Hardware:
    Dell XPS 12 Ultrabook Convertible
    Haswell i7
    8 GB RAM
    256 SSD HD
    Software:
    Windows 8.1 Professional x64
    Problem description:
    After formatting and partitioning the hard drive (UEFI) with a corporate copy of Windows 8.1 x64, the laptop is booted up in Audit mode.  No OEM drivers or software is installed.  Windows is then activated to the KMS server and verified. 
    I then connect to a hotspot (no proxy required) and open up IE 11.  I click tools and select Windows Update.  The laptop then searches and searches for updates and never finds any.  I've let it search for over 10 hours.  The laptop never
    returns an error message.
    Troubleshooting performed:
    1.  I've tried different copies of Windows 8.1 - same result.
    2.  I've tried installing the OS with different types of media (external hd and multiple bootable USB drives) - same result.
    3.  I've disable the Windows Update service, deleted the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder, restarted the Windows Update service and rebooted laptop - same result
    4.  I've installed this copy of Windows 8.1 on different models of laptops with no OEM drivers or software installed - same result.
    5.  I've installed all of the OEM device drivers in the correct order and ensured that the device manager is clear of bang signs - same result.
    6.  Date and time is set correctly.
    Has anyone else experienced this with Windows 8.1 x64?  If I take a copy of Windows 7 x64 or 8 x64 and install it on this laptop, it updates Windows without any issues.  The problem seems to be with Windows 8.1.
    Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

  • Windows update quits working giving me access error when installing SQL Server 2014...

    I am at my wits end.  I've been developing on Windows for 20 years but have never run across something like this.  On Windows 7 Pro I need to install the SQL Server 2014 demo (SQLServer2014-x64-ENU) with the SQL Server 2012 community data mgmt
    package demo (SSDTBI_VS2012_x86_ENU) to develop my MSBI/SSIS skills.  Somewhere along the line one of the prerequisite updates causes the Windows update process to quit working giving me and error code beginning with 8 (sorry didn't write it down, stupid)
    that says I don't have permissions to update.  Have not been able to isolate it farther than that.  Have done all the fixes I've been able to find online and none of them have worked.  For whatever reason, when I install the same thing under
    VMware it's runs fine.  I've had Microsoft log onto my machine and he told me I needed to buy a $99 piece of software to fix the problem.  At this point I'm more than ready to do so.

    I do not understand and never seen a log that tell you what to buy or what it cost.
    according to your explanation I would probably try to restore to point in time before the first installation which star the problem. If you do not have a backup then it is a great lesson for life :-)
    In this case:
    Please provide us more information from the log file during the installation that stopped + the errors that you get in current attempt to install.

  • SCCM Client PC's failing to download/install Windows Updates

    Hi,
    Last month I noticed that our client PC's, shortly after they had built (using SCCM Task Sequence)  were downloading and installing Windows Updates using the usual Windows Update process. What I mean is, I had Software Centre showing Updates as installing,
    but also had the Windows Update agent installing various updates. It was also showing in the start menu (Yellow icon saying Shut down and install updates). Now my understanding is, that that shouldn't of been happening, and only SCCM/Software Centre should
    be showing Windows Updates as installing.
    I noticed that we had some GPO's set for Windows Updates, which I have disabled, as I believed these were not necessary. Also, I like to control my Updates via SCCM Software Update groups after testing them, and not just allow clients to grab any updates
    that are required and approved.
    My problem now is, none of the clients are getting/installing any updates. I'm getting the following errors in the WUAHandler.log:
    Unable to read existing WUA resultant policy. Error = 0x80070002.

    So, I've checked in:
    HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windowa\WindowsUpdate\ & HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate 
    and neither have a WSUS server set. I'm assuming this is correct?
    RSOP shows all policies in \\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Update as
    DISABLED
    GPEDIT shows \\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Update\Specify intranet Microsoft update service location as
    Enabled and as our server (https://XXX.XXX:8531) - I'm assuming this is what SCCM client sets as if I changed this setting and then restart the setting comes back. If it was a Group Policy conflict then I
    would expect to see it in RSOP.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm puzzled as to what to look at next. Is my first assumption of having 0 group policies configured for WSUS correct? Am I also correct in assuming Windows Updates shouldn't show in Control panel, or at the Start > Shutdown
    prompt, and only show in Software Centre?
    Thanks, and sorry for the long winded post!

    Hey Jason,
    Thanks for replying and explaining the WUA stuff. That made sense to be but my mind was being clouded by the issue all of the PC's/Clients onsite were, and are still getting. I cleared out the Group Policy cache as detailed on the link.
    - Cleared C:\Program Data\Microsoft\Group Policy\History\*.*
    - Ran a gpupdate /force
    - Restarted PC

  • New WRT610Nv2 router preventing Windows Update from functioning properly

    I have installed my new WRT610Nv2 router and everything is great except 1 thing. It does not allow Windows Vista Update to run successfully. The update process runs automatically, identifies the updates, but gives an Error Code 646 after it appears to run through the whole process. Even after my PC security and the Router Firewall are completely disabled, the update process is not able to complete successfully. I have since manually downloaded the updates and installed them, but I want to avoid doing this for every update.
    What do I need to configure on my router to allow the Windows Update process to complete automatically.  

    Yes, I have completely disabled my firewall and security software on my PC and tried it. All my updates worked cleanly up until I installed the router. I use Norton Internet Security v17, and I my ISP is Rogers via cable.
    Its difficult to pinpoint because Windows Update was able to scan my PC and determine which updates were needed (This would not happen with my firewall enabled), and the 3 updates appeared to run straight through to the end. I will try the laptop (wireless) but its still running XP.
    I figure that there is some option on the router that I have not set that is interfering in the process. I installed the updates manually so at this point all I can do is wait until the next set of patches to recreate the problem.

  • Lenovo T500 freezes at startup when updating to newest ATI driver (Windows 7 RC x64)

    Hi I have a big problem with my lenovo T500. I installed Windows 7 RC x64 to my lenovo T500 (2082-53G) and when I install the ATI catalyst beta driver x64 v9.6 from ATI's homepage, my computer freezes at startup (some activity on HD but I can't move my mouse and many processes faile to start at boot). Problem occurs only when win7 beta driver for system interface or ricoh multicard reader is installed because it worked ok until I installed those drivers. I'm not the only one facing this problem: http://www.windows7news.com/forum/windows-7-hardware-help/lenovo-t500-thinkpad-wdm-radeon-3650-drive...
    Please help me and thanks in advance!

    My T400 did this. I installed Win 7 with integrated, installed the ATI 9.6 suite, and never really tried the discrete for the first few days. Then when I tried it, it would instantly freeze at the Welcome screen and the loading circle would just freeze up. 
    I uninstalled the device and chose remove driver in device manager, and reinstalled the one from 7's original install and it still did this. Mine would just sit there and freeze up after the welcome screen when using discrete, however integrated always worked. I could only boot up in discrete with Safe Mode with Networking. 
    I ended up doing a system restore to right after I installed Windows, before I installed the ATI 9.6, (4 days ago, so not too bad for me) and booted straight into discrete. Windows update installed the driver for me, now it works perfectly. I am currently using the discrete card with no freeze up issues in the last day.
    If you can't do that, you may have to reformat, just let windows handle the ATI driver itself (boot into discrete while installing) and it should work.
    I wish I could get the higher performance drivers, but I assume they will figure this issue out and fix it soon with the next driver release. 
    Hope that helps you out. 

  • Windows update causing BSOD in my new B50-30 with DRIVER-IRQL error

    Hi folks - I'm really hoping someone else has found a way to deal with a similar issue.
    I bought a b50-30 about three weeks ago, and everything has been fine until the latest rounds of Windows updates. During the normal update blue screen, It got stuck (I gave it 24 hours just in case!) on "update 5 of 31", so I eventually had to force restart. That led to a blue screen with the annoying smiley emoticon for a frown, and it claimed to be "collecting some error I fo and then we'll restart for you" but it showed a 0% progress reading, which didn't change during the 12 hours I (patiently) let it run. The specific error message was DRIVER-IRQL-NOT-LESS-OR-EQUAL. Eventually I force-restarted a second time and went into Safe Mode, and the updates appeared to restart and make progress. Eventually the computer started normally again. Victory?
    All was fine for a week, and then the bloody thing got stuck on the next round of infernal Windows updates, this time not getting past "28 of 61 updates". When I force restart, I get the BSOD with the same DRIVER-IRQL error message and the same 0% progress reading that won't make progress no matter how long I leave it. Unfortunately, this time, opening in safe mode won't work for me, as it merely brings me back to the identical BSOD screen. Now I have no way to restart the bloody thing at all (other than going for a full recovery, which I'm hoping to be able to avoid). I also tried the "refresh" function, which went through the percentage progress fully, but resulted in the same BSOD. Interestingly, it won't allow me to "restore".
    Does anyone have any brilliant advice, other than throwing it out a window and never buying either Lenovo or Windows again?
    Thanks all

    hi Arie,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    If you;re able to see the SSD in the BIOS and/or see it under Disk Management while using the stock HDD then you may want to consider the following:
    1. Boot from the stock HDD and update the BIOS
    BIOS Update Utility - Ideapad 305-15IBY, Lenovo B40-30, B50-30, B50-30 touch, E40-30 Laptops
    2. Update the SSD's firmware to  MU02 (latest as of this writing).
    http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/support-ssd-firmware
    3. Using the stock HDD, connect the Crucial SSD and convert the volume to MBR first to see if there's a compatibility using the drive as GPT.
    If none of the above methods works then there's likely a compatibility issue with the SSD's controller and/or the BIOS (similar to this thread). In this case, consider using a different brand (e.g., Samsung) and observe.
    Regards

  • Windows update error 800f0246 when installing printer driver

    I have Win 7 pro 64 bit and an HP3520 printer.  HP site says a Windows 7 driver is available via windows update.  When I go into Windows update, the drivers shows up under optional downloads.  When I try to download and install it it fails with error code 800f0246.  All other updates install fine.  I tried multiple times with the same error. 
    When I go into device manager the printer is listed under other devices with an icon indicating a driver issue.  When I try to update the driver it finds the downloaded driver that Windows update downloaded.  I select it and it fails.
    I have Windows 7 beta still on my laptop and the printer driver installs from windows update just fine.
    Any ideas?

    No go.  Uninstalled, rebooted, tried to reinstall again, still failed.  Fails when the printer is disconnected as well.  The HP site does not have a driver for manual install.  Any links for a driver lead to here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01874792&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=305968    Those steps do not work because the driver in windows update fails to install.

  • Install optional driver updates from Windows Update for IdeaPad Yoga 13?

    Windows Update on IdeaPad Yoga 13 - Windows 8.1 (64-bit) suggests two optional updates:
    Conexant - Audio Device - Conexant SmartAudio HD
    10.01.2014
    Intel Corporation - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 - Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
    Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 software update released in May, 2014
    04.06.2014
    Should I install those updates or should I keep the original drivers?
    The original drivers from Lenovo "Drivers and software" section (http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032590) seem to be older/outdated:
    Conexant Audio Driver for 64-bit Windows 
    8.65.3.53 10/22/2013
    Integrated Graphics Driver for 64-bit Windows
    Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

    Intel Video Driver for 64-bit Windows
    10.18.10.3282 10/22/2013

    Windows Update has now another update for "Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1" and still no updates on the Lenovo site.
    So I tried the the drivers from Windows Update and it seems that every thing is still working fine.

  • Please help!!! Cannot run Windows Update in Win 7 Pro after changing new hard-drive. (X201s)

    Hi everyone,
    I have been using my thinkpad x201s for more than one year by now. And recently I change a new and larger hard drive for my laptop. When I tried the thinkpad rescue and recovery disc on the new hard drive, everything works fine except that I cannot run Windows Updates after the installation was finished.  The recovery DVDs were burned directly from the original image stored in the computer when the first I received my laptop last year.
    Every time when I try to run the Windows Update, it shows the following: "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running, you may need to restart your computer."
    I restarted my computer later but nothing changed. Can't run Windows Updates and can't even install IE9.
    I then moved back to my old hard drive and everything is normal, no problem with Windows Updates. I also tried to create a back-up image by running win 7 Backups and Restore. Later when I changed back to the new drive and followed the instructions to restore my system from the image I created earlier in a USB drive, it worked except that still the system can't run Windows Updates program.
    I'm now getting very confused and upset, is it something to do with the software copyright? It's been a week now and I tried to Google the similar problem but no solutions work here. All I want to do is moving my current system to the new hard drive so that I can continue to use my laptop but it just failed updating every time.
    Could anyone kindly tell me what to do when changing hard drive in order to avoid the problem I'm dealing with? Sorry I'm not a pro type user and just want my laptop to work appropriately.
    My warranty has already expired so I guess the Lenovo Technical Hotline wouldn't answer my questions anymore. Please help!! Much appreciated.
    Thanks so much in advance!!

    I'm not sure this is the issue, but from your description, it seems as though all you have to do is activate the windows update service. If I were you, I'd search for "Services" in the start menu, open it and look for "Windows Update". Check in its properties that it is set to "Automatic (Delayed)", if it isn't, set it, and start the service, you should then be able to check for updates, be careful though that none of your other programs aren't stopping the service, usually these programs are there to "optimize your performance" or "boost your system",...
    Hope this helps.
