Can't update Windows and All HTTPS sites produce an error and more
It all started with the installation of a Asus Sonar DG sound card or perhaps a coincidence.
The installation from its Cd did not seem to want to complete although it did seem to be at 100% so in rebooting I heard sounds but I installed it again nevertheless and all installed correctly.
And then I go to Firefox and all HTTPS sites, Google, Skype, Yahoo etc. had "There is a problem with this website’s security certificate." bla bla. I uninstall completely Firefox thinking it was the problem. Only to notice Chrome and IE showed the same message. And even if I go into them (giving the browser permission) many photos were blank with an x on them.
A search, via Bing had one suggestion, my router--I disconnected it completely and after 1.5 minutes reconnected. Problem was still there.
On to the bottom right of my desktop and I notice a Windows message. Telling me Windows could not update. The following error: Windows Update error 0x80070005(2002-0101-T-02_56_23A)
Going to the usual links from within this error could not get it fixed.
I then do this:
Go to: services.msc go to Automatic Updates service Right-click and Stop the service. Renamed the 'SoftwareDistribution' to -----.old and restarted the service. Problem was not solved. Went back and made my old back to 'not old'--its original
Went to 'Microsoft Security Essentials' only to find that wouldn't update either.
"Virus and spyware definitions couldn't be updated.
This app couldn't check for virus and spyware definition updates.
Check your internet or network connection and try again."
Also
The Windows Reporting Service gave me this message.
"Problem connecting to the Windows Error Reporting Service"
From instructions on a Forum here I ran "Windows6.1-KB947821-v33-x64.msu"
Windows update got solved but NOT the HTTPS problem NOR the Windows Service update problem
Oh yeah ran 'sfc /scannow ' a few times
What's going on? Attached is my CBS log folder as suggested elsewhere.
Sorry could not attach the file--probably due to the above in trying to attach the file I got the following error: '500 - Internal server error.'
Thank you (and sorry for the length but there was no other choice to make it shorter)
