What I do know is that starting in , Windows Update was being hit by about million people, with about million of those using Automatic Updates.
According to the Microsoft News Center and Wikipedia, as of Windows Update had about million clients, processed about million unique scans per day, and maintained an average of 1. On Patch Tuesday, outbound traffic easily exceeded gigabits per second. Personally, I'm amazed that Windows Update works as well as it does, given the completely unknown conditions on your computer that it's expected to reliably and automagically traverse each and every time an update is available.
For the rest of you still hitting this issue, know that Microsoft knows about it and is working very hard to try and sort it out. All of these updates are recommended and I cant seem to install them as I get an error stating: error code After reading some of these posts, I have to wonder; how much does microsoft pay you, SonarTech, that you defend them so?
You tell Jimerb to go buy an apple because he or she is pissed that the update didn't correctly install? What the hell? He or she has already bought microsoft But in your car scenario, the manufacturer didn't come out and pour sugar in the gas tank. For all intents and purposes, microsoft did and does. Any other point is moot. I paid good money for Windows more than I should have since I've had almost every version of windows in the past since 2.
That includes the updates! That also includes NOT sending out updates that need to be patched, and then patch their patches, ect. If an update doesn't work, they have no business releasing it until it does. If you know how to correct an issue, that's great, but when you start insulting people for being upset, that's NOT.
This install issue had nothing to do with the patches themselves, it's a timing issue that can crop up in the Plug and Play stack that prevented the update process from initializing. We resolved this with KB last month. The patches that failed to install are unchanged. Same goes for you, DHag. Its wonderful that you are so knowledgable and that you have such an illustrious career. Not everyone knows that much about computers or OS's.
You were new to computers once. What would you have done or said if, in your early computing days, something that should have worked perfectly slowed your computer down? You mentioned that win7 has, "well over 50 million lines of source code. Let me ask you this. If you hired me to remodel your house On top of having to tear out the wall, oh damn, forgot, need a special order item that's going to take 3 weeks to get here, and you're just going to have live with a 3-walled room until then.
Wouldn't you be a little upset? Most likely, you would be on the phone to the Better Business Bureau! Admittedly, that's a pretty far-fetched example, but please tell me how that differs from microsoft releasing a faulty update. Both cases the product appears finished and working. Both cases the owner is inconvenienced for something that wasn't even asked for. The only difference is we can't call the BBB on microsoft. I think its great that you're knowledgable and can help people fix these types of problems, but where do you get off talking to people like that?
I'm not a violent man, but if I was having a problem and you came off to me like you did to Taavi, and you were in the same room, I think I'd break your nose before I regained my composure. When people are having problems, the LAST thing they need is some greater-than-thou asshole talking down at them.
You need to temper your knowledge with a little compassion Free life lesson for you, even though I have little doubt that you'll blow it off. That's OK Since these are just released updates, I suggest just waiting for Microsoft to repair the problem. This problem appears to be happening to everyone.
Why would we want to wait. These updates are suppose to placed for security purposes. What your suggesting is outrageous. I would like to see an answer. For, i have for the last five days been attempting to install updates, and supposedly a clean install.
Every time i install updates one, maybe two might succeed, the other forty failed. Unlike a week ago, everything I was installing, was being installed. I want to see what excuse Microsoft has.
My problem has to do with networking, today my networking involves RIPE overseas. So please, do not encourage Microsoft Techs from giving a proper response. Truly they don't happen to Apple customers as much, however OSX does not allow me to do as much as Windows. When my kids went off to college I got them all Macs because I couldn't travel 1, miles to fix them.
But that is neither here nor there, both platforms are viable and your and everyone else's help is very much appreciated. However the "get over it" comment isn't!!! I just spent 3 hours tracking down a similar error on my WHS that I will never get back, and all I did was run update I am annoyed by the frequent restart messages that keep popping up.

I tried your suggestion but am unable to run chkdsk because I do not have the proper "authority" Run CMD using an elevated prompt means use run as an administrator option.
Hello, how many users have the same problem in this thread? Have you tried the steps I mentioned? I had the same problem too and resolved it by installing each update separately. I noticed KB and KB requires a reboot after installation since it's using system resources currently in use.
Same four update fails from nowhere. EDIT: linh. I am having the same issue right now. Trying to install updates one by one. Seriously Microsoft? Next time I send you a bill and you can debate abut it in EU highest court. Thursday, April 28, PM. Here's what I did to get them all to install on my Bit system: Install KB by itself - unselect all other updates Reboot Install KB by itself - unselect all other updates Reboot Install KB by itself - unselect all other updates.
I was not asked to reboot after this update. Check for updates again, and you should only have KB left. Install KB Reboot one last time, then everything will hopefully have taken. SonarTech, I followed your instruction several times and kb still won't install.
Friday, April 29, AM. Sonar Tech Thanks for the suggestion but it again did exactly as I described above. Friday, April 29, PM.
I agree Taavi, i love the way the windows community is so acustom to putting up with crap. Microsoft doesn't think that way. Saturday, April 30, PM. Sonar Tech, The error code is A. Thanks, your solution worked great!!!!!!!!!! Sunday, May 1, AM. Hi, Harmil - That error definitely seems to point more towards a Windows Update problem.
Sorry this update's being such a pain in the butt.
