Windows Update Error (code: 80070490)

Dear Moderator,
I have a problem, i could not use windows update from 3 days ago. I've tried to fix it by system restore, but it didn't work.
I read the information at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958044, the problem may occur if there is corruption in the Component Based Servicing (CBS) manifest. But the only way to fix it.....I have to repair the instalation of my windows vista by the instalation dvd. Unfortunately, i didn't receive windows vista dvd when i bought my X61 (7676A14).
Dear Moderator, do you have any idea to fix it, please? Coz i already disapointed with this situation.
I hope that Lenovo could consider it and put the instalation file into "Support & Downloads".
Regards,
beJoe

I had a similar problem (with a different error code) and below is how I repaired it. In my case, the error turned out to be a mismatch among the windows update files (EXE and DLL) in the c:\windows\system32 folder.
From a Vista computer that WILL do windows updates, copy c:\windows\system32\wu*.* to a flash drive.
Insert the flash drive into the computer with the Windows update problem. On my TP, the flash drive was assigned drive letter F: so I'll use that drive letter in this message. If your system assigns a different drive letter, use that.
At this stage, you won't be able to copy the "good" files to the %windir%\system32 folder and will get "access denied" messages if you try. You probably will, however, see that some of the windows update files in the current %windir%\system32 folder are of different sizes or are older than the "good" files on the flash drive
For security reasons, MS is really serious about stopping anyone at all from writing to the System32 folder. You cannot take ownership of files in the directory through the GUI, but you can do so in a command window. You solve this problem as follows:
Open an elevated command prompt and run the following commands:
FIRST, TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE WU*.* files in the system 32 directory using this command.
takeown /f c:\windows\system32\wu*.*
NEXT, GIVE OWNERSHIP PRIVILEGES TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR GROUP using this command:
icacls c:\windows\system32\wu*.* /GRANT ADMINISTRATORS:F
Then, having vanquished the troublesome "access denied" message, run this command:
copy f:\wu*.* c:\windows\system32\*.*
When prompted, allow each current WU*.* file in the system32 to be overwritten.
On my ThinkPad, Windows Update worked after I performed the above steps.
If this makes you nervous, it should as you are messing with (and may mess up) the folder with some of the most important operating system files. If you're not experienced, get someone who is experienced to try this.
Oh, and by the way, run a rescue and recovery or other program to image your disk before you do any of these things.
Good luck.

My Airport Express will not stream music to my remote speakers through the laptop (windows Vista), gives error code -15000. Works fine from my IPAD and Ipod. Any thoughts, suggestions?

Itunes is throwing a -15000 error code on my Windows vista. Ipad and Ipod work great for streaming to remote speakers, trying to use the computer and it throws the error code.
Any thoughts? I've rebooted the laptop, modem, and AE, even plugged in the laptop recommended by other users, still nothing.

the following is for W7 but might work for you:

Windows 7 Update Error Code 80070005

I've been trying to update windows 7 for a while now. I've looked up every way possible, and every time i shutdown and tries to configure, it fails. then i check and see the error code 80070005. i know that this means that i dont have permission. im on
the administrative account, ive tried my best uninstalling any third party programs and still nothing.

Hi,

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.

Itunes will not launch on Windows Vista no error code

Itunes will not launch on my computer. I have windows vista. I have uninstalled and downloaded itunes repeatedly. I have also tried all of the troubleshooting tips available on the apple support site. But none of them worked. Quicktimes works fine. It is just itunes. I even opened up task manager to check the processes and itunes appears for about a second in the processes tab then just disappears. I have no idea what to do i have an iphone 3gs and havent updated it for a few months now and cannot sync my iphone without itunes. I Have kaspersky internet protection but i doubt thats the problem because itunes was working fine until i updated it.PLEASE HELPPPPPP!

Presumably the configuration fails to complete, so every time you start iTunes it has another go.
As iTunes works normally when you plug in your iPod, you should be able to work round this by creating a new iTunes short cut.
Go to Program Files\iTunes and right click on iTunes.exe. Select: Send to>>Desktop(create shortcut). If you are lucky you will be able to open iTunes using this short cut.
However this work around does not fix the underlying problem that WIndows fails to complete configuring iTunes.

Windows 7 Update Error Code 800706f7

I am unable to update Windows 7 Home Premium on this machine. Apparently the problem started in Dec. 2014, but I noticed it recently, when I started getting the messages that my Windows copy was not genuine.
I have gone through all the suggestions posted on this forum and others. For example, I tried to install Hotfix and other update mentioned by Checkurtech. I don't have KB3004394or any other mentioned culprits.
I have run sfc/scannow, which says that there are some corrupted files, but the details don't show any.
Any suggestions from anybody?
I went to a Microsoft site, which showed free chat possibility, but nothing happened.
I also tried to install KB3024777, which did not work.
Help!

Vista Home Premium - Error code 80070490 - Windows update

Computer - Satellite 200
Operating system - Vista Home Premium (service pack 1)
Problem - When I try to update from Windows Update (both manual and automatic) I get error code 80070490
I have tried - System restore, downloading and paying for "RegCure" and following instructions on Microsoft forum all without success.
The computer was supplied with a recovery disk which does not have "repair" facility.
If you have a solution that does not involve a full re-load I would be very grateful
Please make instructions comprehensible to a non-techno!
Thank you

This error may occur if the older Windows Update engine files cannot be
replaced by Windows Update Agent 3.0 (7.0.6000.374).
To troubleshoot this issue, I suggest we first reset permission and
reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0.
Step 1: Reset permission
================
1. Please download the subinacl.msi file from the following link and save
the installation patch onto the Desktop:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...inityDownloads
2. Please go to the Desktop and double click the downloaded file.
3. Please select the C:\Windows\System32 folder as the Destination Folder
during the installation. Later we will use this tool to reset the permission
settings on the current machine.
Note: If UAC (User Account Control) window is prompted for permission to
continue, please click Continue.
4. Click the Start Button, in the Start Search bar, type: "notepad" (without
quotes) and press Enter.
5. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
window:
@echo off
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f
subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f
@Echo =========================
@Echo Finished.
@Echo =========================
@pause
6. After pasting the above commands, please close the Notepad window. Choose
Save when you are prompted to save the file. Type "reset.bat" as the file
name and choose Desktop from the left panel as the save location.
7. Refer to the Desktop and right click the reset.bat file, then choose "Run
as administrator."
8. You will see a DOS-like window processing.
NOTE: It may take several minutes, please be patient. When it is finished,
you will be prompted with the message: "Finished, press any key to continue".
Step 2: Reinstall Windows Update Agent 3.0
===========================
1. Please download the file from the following link:
Windows Vista (32bit)
http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x86.exe
Windows Vista (64bit)
http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x64.exe
2. Save the file to D: drive.
Note: Please select a drive where Windows Vista was not loaded because the
file cannot be launched directly from the system root directory.
3. Click Start->Run, type: "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce"
(without quotations) and then press Enter to install the Windows Update
engine.
Note: There is a space between "D:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" and
"/wuforce"
Now, let's run Windows Update again.
