Heeeelp! Used Tweaking repair tool yesterday. It repaired 37 problems but did more damage than good. Ten years of Windows updates were erased along with Special Pack 1. Been trying to reconstitute it but it is tough slogging given Microsoft no longer supports some portions of Windows 7. Two files were replaced (80070643 and 800701103) that allows some updates to install. But then two other missing files caused problems: KB976732-.exe and KB 976732-x64.exe. No luck here since .net Frame is affected. Attempts to repair Network using Tweak all in one tool didn't work and neither did Microsoft. The windows installer seems alright.
There is an added wrinkle: cannot download .zip and .scm files. Zip extension cause the screen to rapidly jump and down. Looks like the computer is having a heart attack. Until this problem is solved cannot download remaining updates. When that is achieved more problems in update will probably surface. At ,my wit's end trying to put out all these brushfires, so to speak. Using Windows 7 2003).

Boggin:
While Windows Update doesn't work in Safe Mode with Networking, in that mode you can Google for the direct downloads for the Windows Updates and .NET Framework versions.

MS has a .NET Framework repair tool but I think Shane prefers to uninstall them and then reinstall - but before you try anything else I think Shane may want to find out why this happened, so hold off on any other remedial attempts until he gets back.

OK. Will do nothing until someone gets back to me. My knowledge isn't sufficient to try anything. Learned the hard way not to do that!

Willy2:
- Do you still have the main repair log ? Post it (attachment), It provides A LOT OF useful info.
- I DO hope you made a backup of the registry (Step 5) before running the program. Don't delete that backup (yet) because I know Shane is/could be interested in that backup.
- "17-Repair Windows Updates" doesn't "remove" the updates themselves. It only deletes a list that's generated by the Updates themselves. So, all your updates are still there. This repair also removes (A LOT OF) obsolete files that are used to update your system.
- How many failed & succesful updates do you have ? Open "Control Panel", "Programs & Features", "View installed Updates".

I don't know squat about computers except what has been learned by trial and error and what is available after Googling. So how does on access the repair log. No did not back up registry. Do now or just before doing repairs. You have to supply info like you were talking to an idiot (which isn't far off the mark given my tech savvy   :smiley:
