Windows update corruption

(1/3) > >>

Christopher:
Hi I am running Windows 7 Profesional versin 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 760164 bit. I have windows repair and have done all the repairs. I am still having problems with windows update. It says some updates were not installed. 13 updates. Code 80070663.This has been happening for months and it always"installs" updates when I turn off my computer.

Any solutions?

Boggin:
Can you check that error code again as it may be 80070643 and not 80070663, as 663 isn't listed in http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/get-support-windows-update-problems#1TC=windows-7

Christopher:
no this is the correct code

Boggin:
I tend to go to that first link I've posted to identify WU errors and as it wasn't listed, thought you had done a typo - sorry for that.

The 663 code (from a Google) can affect a number of updates, mainly Office and .NET Framework, but to have it for 13 WUs all I can suggest for the moment is to run the MS Fix it to reset Windows Update Components and then let us know if that allows any more to be installed and if you can post the KBs that fail and any change in the error code. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058

One of the Google's suggestions was to temporarily modify or turn off UAC which you can also try if the Fix it doesn't improve matters.

Christopher:
None of these suggestions work I'm afraid Boggin. I have tried the fix it tool and have turned off uac temporarily. I have attached a screenshot of the error code.
