Hi I've had a problem that my windows 7 corrupts downloaded files since installing it, and it's corrupted one of my windows updates so I can't install it. Is there a way of deleting the update so I can redownload it and install it? need to know what folder its in
I just
Thanks
There's more than one file, is it safe to delete them?
Yes, you don't need them - just delete the contents of the Downloads folder - not the Downloads folder itself.
Thanks very much for your reply. Still won't let me install it though, just get error 800736B3. Thanks anyway
Nope it is Windows Test Update, there is one in Important and one in Optional. Both fail to install. I assume it's not the data corruption like I thought but something else
Hi SIW2,
I have problem on installing KB979683. It says Code8007065E. I also downloaded the msu file but still it won't get installed.
I tried what u explain by deleting all the files on C:/windows/SoftwareDistribution/Download. It works for 5% installation only and then Code80073712 appears as another error.
Please advise what to do?
Thank you
Ok I been searching around and even tried whats in this thread twice (with a reboot after each time) and my updates still fail, the code I get is the following, 80070002, no matter what I do (including the microsoft update fixit tool) nothing seems to help, im getting to wits end with it, and I really don't want to contact MS or reinstall windows its self to fix this error....so anyone have any further ideas?
if it helps I also tried whats at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...error-80070002 as well as removing the files from the downloads folder to no avail, I am starting to wonder if this is becoming a hopeless battle!!!
Im in the process of doing whats listed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821 and downloading some updater utility thing of some sort! so here goes!!
