Windows update fails to install updates (Error 66A, 8007006E) Hi.
Th problem is that all windows updates are failed to install (around 27 updates) since the 17/May.
I tried everything from deleting temporary files, doing malware check, hard disk check for errors, still could not solve it.
Any ideas? | My System Specs |

OK - on to CheckSUR, then.... Description of the System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Vista, for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7, and for Windows Server 2008 R2
download the appropriate version for your system, and run it.
Once it's complete, locate the CheckSUR.log file, and attach it to your response. | My System Specs | | Computer type Laptop System Manufacturer/Model Number Asus K52F OS Win 7 x64 Home Premium (and x86 VirtualBox VM) CPU i3 370M Motherboard Asus Memory 8GB - finally :) Graphics Card it's an i3, dude!

Huh - nothing found. (which is good, but doesn't tell us much) Error codes "0x8007066A" or "66A" occur when you install the .NET Framework updates may apply - are you getting the 66A errors with the .NET updates and the 0x8007006E error with everything else?
Try just installing non-.NET updates - does that work at all? | My System Specs | | Computer type Laptop System Manufacturer/Model Number Asus K52F OS Win 7 x64 Home Premium (and x86 VirtualBox VM) CPU i3 370M Motherboard Asus Memory 8GB - finally :) Graphics Card it's an i3, dude!
