Get Error 8000FFFF When Trying To Update?
May 3, 2012
So I was trying to do some updates for Win. 7 and I got Framework 4. FW 4 is fine The updates, OK there were 119 i think of 'em or close. First, the other day I got error 8000FFFF when trying to update. then I got a program for Win. 7 (made by MS) to fix registries. This let me install FW 4 and some updates.Then I came back, didn't get a glance at the screen but my comp. turned off and reset. It was updating registries and then trying to config. win 7, that failed and it reverted to prebious settings, where I am now.
I can press CTRL+ALT+DEL to open Tskmngr and open programs (as I obviously did so.) but the Desktop is black, no icons, no taskbar (explorer.exe)and I might be missing something else. Also the, at the top left window says its personalizing my desktop as if first use. its not, and I've been w8ing for it for over 15 mins now...

A while back, after successfully downloading and installing some updates in the Windows Update, it prompted me to restart the computer to finish the update installation process. However, I continued to use the computer for quite some time before restarting it, and then when it tried to configure the updates on the start-up screen, it showed that it was not successful in doing so. In the past, I noticed that this would typically happen when I did not restart the computer immediately (or within a short time) after the updates finished and I got the prompt to restart. I would have to go to Windows Update and do it over again, and then upon immediate restart, it would always work properly. But this time, it did not, and I keep getting the 8000FFFF error message instead.
Also, now, every time I start the computer, it shows that it's "Preparing to configure Windows... Do not shut off computer" (presumably the updates that never got completely and correctly configured) in the start-up screen... gets to 35%..fails... shuts down (screen goes black)... restarts again... tries to configure again, fails again, shuts down and restarts again... tries to configure again, fails again, and finally it apparently gives up and says "reverting changes" and finally goes to the desktop.I've looked at the answers in several threads at the answers.microsoft.com forum that were started by people with similar problems, and also tried several of the Microsoft "FixIt" files on the Microsoft site, but none of them worked. I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium.

about a month I have a problem with the updates of windows 7 professional 32 bit. When I turn on the PC, Windows tries to install an update, it hangs at 35% and the pc restarts 3 times before using it. after, if I click on search updates, I have error code 8000ffff. I tried microsoft fixit but I have not resolved.
this is the file of MGA.

I can't get Terraria to work on steam because I need framework 4.0. Before getting that I turned updates on for the first time and got some updates. Most failed. This is the error code: 8000FFFF. I tried multiple times but they don't download. Any clue why? Also when I tried to download fw 4.0 off MS.com, I had a "catastrophic error".

I'm out of ideas. I've been running Win 7 on this machine for more than a year without issues in updating etc. Now it will not search or update/install critical items. I'm running Symantec (even tried turning the firewall off without any success). I get an error code 80072F7C. When I run hijackthis, I get an error message that my system denied write access to the Hosts file. I proceed with the scan but am unable to produce a log file. I've included a screenshot from the windows update error as well as the error I get when trying to run hijack this.

seeing as it had infected my services.exe, part of the fix was to get a new copy of it, or something around those lines; this will come in to play later, I think. Anyway, its been a LONG time, my last update whenever I try running windows update, it runs for a bit and tries to receive the updates, but then stops and displays a message saying it failed to update, and gives me the error code of 80246008. I've looked this up, and I see that it possibly has something to do with the background intelligent transfer service.

I have a Toshiba Satelite with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium and I'm getting an update error of 8024402F. These are the following steps I took to solve the problem with no success.
1) I disabled the AVG antivirus program.
2) I turned off the microsoft firewall.
3) I found a list of services to reregister.
4) I turned off the services and renamed two folders in the system32 folder.
5) I've also tried the all the fixes associated from the Microsoft website.

Until a few weeks ago I was running the following computer and I use it just for gaming, I changed the Motherboard to an Asus P8Z68 and used a different i5 2500k-everything else remained the same. I erased the SSD and did a clean install of Win 7. Loaded the mother board drivers, video drivers and intel rapid storage. The system boots up and appears to be working great. If I try and use windows update I get the error code 0xc80003fa. I have googled the error code and done everything that has been suggested to fix the issue and still nothing. I have done another clean install and get exactly the same result.

I'm using Windows 7 RC. I did not upgrade it was a clean install.
Whenever I try to update my computer via Windows Update, it gives me the error code in the title of this thread. This happened *before* I even installed anti-virus, and after as well.
My internet connection is working flawlessly via cable, not wireless. I've tried about 5 or 6 times over a period of 6 or 7 hours.

I noticed one of today's updates seems to be messing up my volume icon. After installing all updates, if I right click the volume icon nothing happens. I did some testing and it is an update, but I'm not sure which one it is.

New Machine, new HDD, new Win7Ult install...
Windows Update is failing for some reason (I was successfully able to install 2 updates, but all of the others fail)
I am getting an "unknown error" 80070308, and while there seems to be one other reference to this on a MSFT forum, the solutions there were basically restart the update service, which doesn't work, or rename some of the Windows files... which I did as well to no avail.
Does anyone know what this error is? Or had it before?

My windows update says it has 55 important updates but when I attempt to update it says that the updates were not installed and gives the error code 80246008. The windows help and support tells me I need to change or restart the background intelligent transfer service (BITS) but it isn't in the list of services that it directs me to. The microsoft fixit and automated troubleshooter fixes have both failed to help and I'm a bit worried this is a symptom of a real underlying problem.

Recently my son had W7 Virus which appears to have been removed. He is running Comodo A/V and Malwarebytes, both of which find no errors. Had problems starting a few services butthis forum, was able to get them going. Problem now is that when Update Request is run a 7023 error appears in the logs about every 30 seconds. Detail shows: Windows Modules Installer Service Terminated with reason "access is denied". When I try to start the Service it gives Code-5 and same Access Denied. Other associated symptoms are, "View installed updates" incorrectly shows no updates and "Windows Features" shows a blank list and never completes. Note that updates HAVE been installed in the last 5 days and are listed correctly.Several Logs are posted below:Farbar Service Scanner Version: 31-01-2012 01Ran by matt (administrator) on 31-01-2012 at 21:14:45Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 (X86)Boot Mode:[CODE]

I have a 6 day old TOshiba Notebook with Windows 7 64-Bit. I can't do windows update because of an error code 8024402F.
I tried the troubleshooter - doesn't work. I tried disabling antivirus and firewall - still doesn't work. I tried the Microsoft Fix It thing - again still doesn't work. Even a reinstall of the system didn't work.

Here is a screen shot of the problem - Most/all information is in the SS , I have a HP laptop windows 7 32 bit and i do windows updates when there available. And i got bitdefender total security 2010 as a security software.
EDIT: hehe fixed , i did windows update and restored the hidden update and installed it from there (it didn't work before with this method , but magically worked now).

I have a users laptop that is failing to install SP1 with the above error code (80070002). WU is installing other updates so it appears to be a problem with SP1 rather than WU. Installing while logged in gives me the error code but if you hit shutdown then it just sits on the Configuring screen and the user has had to hard power off the laptop after a few hours.
