Windows updates fail to install and revert

Good afternoon,
I've been having problems updating Windows.  It will download them and install but at the end it reverts back.  It has not been installing most updates.  How do I manually install the ones I am missing - sporadic updates since Dec 14.
Thanks,
Russ

    Itunes update failed to install and now Itunes  won't run

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Windows updates fail to install

    Every update other than Windows Defender definition updates starting with November 18 has failed to install in Windows 8-64.  Since this is on more than one installation it is a systemic Windows 8 problem as far as I am concerned. I cannot be the
    only in reality beta tester of this problematic (I am seeing program/driver incompatibility issues and IE 10 has very serious flaws) OS seeing this issue. I have tried installing them individually only to see each update fail to install. On rebooting
    Win 8 insists on installing any of the updates, generally fails at about 15% and has to reset and reboot. The installation fix wizard works about as well any similar applet from Microsoft which is to say not at all. Apart from "refresh" or re-install, both
    non-starters for an OS that is barely a month old, what solutions are there? As noted I see program/driver issues (try running CS6 with a Radeon video card) and wonder if that is part of the problem.

    Hi,
    to see the cause of Windows 8 update failures, we must look for error messages in the following log files:
    Please run the Windows Explorer and go to the folder "C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\" and copy all files to your document folder, also copy the setupapi.dev.log from the folder C:\Windows\Inf, the "C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log" and the file "C:\Windows\winsxs\poqexec.log"
    to your document folder (otherwise you can't upload it), zip all files into 1 ZIP and upload the zip to your SkyDrive [1] and post a link here.

  • Windows updates fail to download and install again and again

    Good Afternoon
    I have recently bought this sat pro lap top on the package was both windows vista home premium. I also decided to change ispn at the same time. The provider also gives Norton Firewall Virus Intrusion etc etc.
    Microsoft would not validate my system but after 2 hours on the phone with them and a system restore they agreed I had purchased valid stuff and fixed it.
    Now it seems windows updates icon appears ask me do I want to download and install.
    I do but each time it fails there are about 11 things that fail none install. I rang Microsoft today they did one or tow things but say it the PC Toshiba fault.
    Any one please had this happen to them and have got the solution(s) ???
    Please take into consideration my pc knowledge can be written on the back of a postage stamp. Keep it like me simple.
    Thanks

    Did you try turning off the Firewall or uninstall Norton? Norton may be blocking the Internet Connection.
    If the ISP uses a Proxy Server, you need to enter the proxy in Internet Explorer's Connection Settings.

  • G500 win8.1 window updates failing to install.

    I recently purchased a Lenovo G500 in France (intel I7 2.2 ghz, 4gb ram, 500gb) with Windows 8.1 as the OS, and just got the Internet back last wednesday, so April 30th.
    Since then, I've had a total 3 microsoft updates, which in and of itself is not terribly interesting, except that two of these three updates have failed, leading to the following message: 
    "Failure configuring Windows updates. Reverting changes. Do not turn off your computer"
    Obviously in French, but that's the translation I got anyway. 
    So here's my question: How often does this happen? Microsoft's site tells me to wait for about 30 minutes while it resolves, but the first time it took me close to an hour (and after the 3rd restart after it showed me this, I manually turned it off after it shut down and then it installed properly). The second update worked fine and I had no problems (albeit it took well over 30 minutes to install though), yet the third (this morning) also failed to install (but this time it took less than 30 minutes, although I noticed it froze on the lenovo screen after a restart, where the "loading" circles didn't show up, although I don't know after which restarted this occurred, as I had left it to run its course while I ate breakfast). 
    Now that I think about it, the first update error occurred after a system error which required a restart (cause unkown, some kind of error along the lines of 0x0000000A, but I found nothing I I'm guessing I didn't see correctly), and last night I noticed my laptop had frozen when I close it, so I manually shut it down. Coincidence? The second update worked fine, and it was the only time I had maually selected restart and update, so this could be a plausible theory, although I have no idea why it froze last night. Maybe I closed it too quickly after closing chrome (although I have no idea why this would cause a freeze...). 
    So my questions are as follow: Has this happened to any win 8.1 users, are your updates abnormally long (well over 10 minutes), do they occurr extremely frequently (every 2-3 days, if not every day), and what could the causes be for the failure to install/reverting changes issue? 
    Thank you in advance for any help. 

    There are lots of possible reasons. Other programs interfering, insufficient permissions, AV blocking, – the list is endless. 
    I could say do a forum seach but that facility is as useless as the Adobe installers.

  • 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.

  • Intel 3000 Graphics driver from windows update failing to install. Error 800F0244

    Hi all, So an update has come through windows update for my embedded graphics which is an Intel HD 3000. Problem is the update keeps failing. Tried restarting and nothing changed. I ended up jumping on to the Windows Forums and seems like this problem has just started to pop up for quite alot of users and no solution yet. This is what the windows website says for the Error : SPAPI_E_SIGNATURE_OSATTRIBUTE_MISMATCH0x800F0244 The software was tested for compliance with Windows Logo requirements on a different version of Windows, and may not be compatible with this version. So was wondering if anyone else had this problem and if anyone found a solution?  

    Hi Everyone , So after a few minutes of digging around this is what I found. This is the driver version that is failing for intel HD 3000. ( 9.17.10.4229 )     So I thought I'd check the driver on the Intel site, to see if it was the latest, which it was .. (9.17.10.4229)    And this is the driver currently installed for my HD 3000... and as noted its  ( 9.17.10.4229 )   SO its seems this problm is a windows update issue and the most current driver is available through intels website. No need to stress, jump onto the intel downloads page and download the latest one if you havent already, This is a link to the  32Bit Driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24970/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-32bit  Heres the link for the 64Bit https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24971/In​tel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-64-bit As for the windows update one, hide that update as clearly something isnt right and surely MS will patch it soon enough! Hoped this helped   

  • Latest update failed to install and cannot now open iTunes at all.

    I tried to install the latest update of iTunes on my laptop but it failed.  I got both a 'runtime error' message and also an error message saying 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start.

    Hey gina 2909,
    When you uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, did you use this article?
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    If you haven't already done these steps, this section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.

  • Updates failing to install and now RAW won't work

    Just reinstalled Photoshop CS5 on a new computer... Photoshop is working fine until I imported new shots and tried to edit them in RAW.
    Wouldn't read the data.
    So ran all the updates.. only BRIDGE, EXTENSION MANAGER & ILLUSTRATOR updates have failed.
    All it says is "There was an error downloading this update.Please quit and try again later".
    I have... still hasn't worked.
    And what's even worst is there seems to be no option to chat directly to Adobe.
    This needs to be resolved now as I have a client waiting.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers

    If you download these two updates for photoshop cs5
    12.0.4 photoshop cs5 update
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Adobe Photoshop CS5
    6.7.1 camera raw update
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update
    nothing happens when you try to run the two above updates?

  • 10.5.7 update failed to install

    The 10.5.7 update failed to install and I have got the following message:
    The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be installed.
    The following install step failed: run preinstall script for MacOSXUpd10.5.7.
    Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
    What might be the problem?

    I also have a problem with the disk permissions. Anytime I launch the 'verify disk permissions' I have got the same bunch of warnings:

    Repairing disk permissions doesn't help: I've got the same warnings again and again.
    May be there is a connection between these two problems?

  • 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?
