Tryin to check for updates and it says no updates are available when I know there is because I don't even have SP1 on here yet (Just got it out of box) It installed updates, once, but now will not properly search when I ask it to "check for updates" it just lets the bar scroll once "checking for updattes" then says "no important updates are available.. I turned firewall off, still no luck..

For a while now I have been experiencing a strange problem. My laptop keeps changing the Windows Updates without my consent. I know this has been raised in the past but my problem is slightly different.I prefer to choose "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download or install them", however periodically the settings change without my consent to "Never check for updates".This is very frustrating as I am constantly having to keep an eye on this, and change the settings back to what they were in order to receive critical updates, or indeed any other update.The laptop was bought new just under 12 months ago and came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit pre-installed.Has anyone else experienced this, or can anyone advise on a fix?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt appears to be solved, however Windows Update does not work. I get the message "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer." Needless to say, the restarts do not help. I also tried installing Windows Essentials for virus protection which could not receive updates. I have since uninstalled an am using Clamwin for virus protection.

I couldn't get OCSP revocation check to work on Windows 7. I installed my self-signed Root and Intermediate certificates (generated using openssl 0.9.8) on my Windows 7 machine. I then go to Internet Explorer and type in the [URL]. The port sends back a leaf certificate which has OCSP URL in the extension. And the leaf cert is revoked. I verified it using openssl ocsp -url http://xxx -issuer Ica.crt -cert leaf.crt -CAfile Root.crt.In IE, type in [URL]. It appears that it took some time (15 seconds) and come back with connection instead of revocation warning. Openssl OCSP responder log says "malformed request". If I ping the same from a Windows Vista machine, there is no problem.Is there a security patch that I need to install or some settings to flip to enable this check? BTW, I do have in IE/Tools/Internet options/Advanced/Security: "check for server certificate revocation" box checked.

I know there is a tool available to test my computer to see if it's capable of running Windows 7. My question is this: Is there a tool available that I can run on the server that will test all machines on my network? With the free Windows Upgrade Advisor, I must visit each computer. Just looking for a way to do this without visiting each computer.
