Solved Windows 7 update and error code: 80070003

CodeVisio · Nov 14, 2012

Hi all,

I'm facing with this problem today.
I have two updates available from Windows Update:

1) Security Update for Microsoft Office 2007 suites (KB2687311)
2) Update for Microsoft Office suites (KB2596848)

I tried to download them but I got the error code: 8007003 as soon as the downloading start.

I don't have the Office Package but I have the viewer versions installed of them.

I'm assuming that I need to install these updates since the checking process shown them as to be installed.

Any idea?

Thank you

OS: Windows 7 x64 Utimate

might be worth trying the Automatic Troubleshooter or if thats doesnt work try the System Update Readiness Tool from the MS download centre

The 0x80070003 error is 'path not found' - the question then obviously, which path? - and why is it missing?

An MGADiag report may help diagnosis...

Please follow this tutorial and post an MGADiag report - then we can see what the problem is.

@alyraver

- The troubleshooter didn't provide any help for this issue.

- I've downloaded The "System Update Readiness Tool" (Windows6.1-KB947821-v24-x86.msu) for my platform (Visat & Seven), but it didn't work because it said "not applicable for your computer".

NoelDP · Nov 15, 2012

...in that case you downloaded the wrong one - you need the one for Windows 7 x64 (64-bit)
what you downloaded was teh 32-bit version.

Please download the CheckSUR tool from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
(you'll need to look in the details for Method 2)

Then zip the CheckSUR.log and upload it to your public SkyDrive so I can take a look - post a link in your reply.

The tool can take anywhere from 5 mins to a couple of hours to run (or 'Install') depending on how much it has to do, and may exit silently - it may appear to freeze for most of that time, but be patient.

CodeVisio · Nov 15, 2012

You're right, I haven't noticed the "x86" string. I followed what the downloaded web page suggested to me. I'll try it.

Thank you

CodeVisio · Nov 16, 2012

@NoelDP,

- downloaded the tool for x64 bit version.
- executed it.
- it said the installation was ok.
- I ran again Windows Update.
- The issue was still there. Windows Update wasn't able to install the two KBs above. The error code was the same.

About the log file:

I have no folder named CBS under the path suggested from your tool, that is:

%SYSTEMROOT%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log
%SYSTEMROOT%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log

Note: in my system, there is no Logs folder, instead there is a LogFiles one. I'm assuming they are the same.

Any other idea?

Thanks

EDIT: Sorry, I have read too fast the instructions. I read %SYSTEMROOT% as System32 folder. I think I found the right path under \Windows\Logs\CBS\.
This is the SkyDrive link for CheckSUR.log file (there is no issues inside it):
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=51F07961B4853C65!107&authkey=!AINEBJ-IDAg8DWU

Let me know if you have problem seeing the file, this is the first time I'm using SkyDrive.

Please run a full CHKDSK and SFC scan....

Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right-click on the Command Prompt entry
Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

At the Command prompt, type

CHKDSK C: /R

and hit the Enter key.
You will be told that the drive is locked,
and the CHKDSK will run at he next boot - hit the Y key, and then reboot.

The CHKDSK will take a few hours depending on the size of the drive, so be patient!

After the CHKDSK has run, Windows should boot normally (possibly after a second auto-reboot) -
then run the SFC.

SFC -System File Checker - Instructions
Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right-click on the Command Prompt entry
Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

At the Command prompt, type

SFC /SCANNOW

and hit the Enter key

Wait for the scan to finish - make a note of any error messages - and then reboot.

Copy the CBS.log file created (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log) to your desktop (you can't manipulate it directly) and then compress the copy and upload it to your SkyDrive (http://skydrive.live.com ) and post a link to it so that I can take a look.

Post a new MGADiag report with details of any error messages encountered.

Does CBS.log file contain sensible information?
How are you going to see that log file? by inspecting it or with an automatic tool?

is the critical area of the report - it shows that one file is irreparable.
- we'll get to that in a minute or two

I just noticed that your License is an MSDN one - are you a subscriber?? If not then the installation is counterfeit

I didn't much understand the content of the report.
How is pngfilt.dll involved in the Windows Update issue?
I've seen the property of that dll, but there is no much information on the resource area. It doesn't seem a microsft dll.
Yes, I was a MSDN subscriber.

EDIT:
ok, from the dll property (right click on the file) there is no resource information.
But if you open it with visual studio as binary file you can see it is a dll/exe file (PE magic).
Looking for some strings inside it I can see the resource information:
- a string "microsoft"
- a string "PNGFILTER"
- a string like "IE plug in"
- probably it is an activex or something like that since it has DllGetClassObj() and DllCanUnloadNow() functions. But DependencyWalker wasn't able to load it and show the exported/imported functions.

Any idea? a virus? a rootkit?

Thanks a lot NoelDP

NoelDP · Nov 17, 2012

No - it's a legitimate file that has gotten corrupted somehow (which is probably why DW barfs on it).

It is the Portable Networks Graphics dll, and is part of the basic Windows OS - which is about as much as I know.

I've uploaded a file - codev.zip - to my SkyDrive at https://skydrive.live.com/#cid=936736BB8FCEB92F&id=936736BB8FCEB92F%21526
Please download and save it.
Right-click on the saved file and select Extract all...
Change the target to C:\ and click on Extract
This should create a folder C:\codev
Close all windows (it would be a good idea to print these instructions!)
Now reboot to the Repair Environment - as soon as the machine restarts, start tapping F8 - this should bring up the Advanced Boot Menu, at the top of which should be the option 'Repair my Computer'
Pick that
You'll have to log in with your username and password.
Pick the option to use a Command Prompt
At the prompt type
DIR C:\codev
hit the enter key - if you get a 'Not Found' error try
DIR D:\codev
or
DIR E:\codev

The drive letter in use when you find the folder will need to be substituted (for<drive>) into the following command...

XCOPY <drive>:\codev <drive>:\windows\winsxs /y /i /s /v /h

run the command (it should take almost no time)and when the prompt returns, type
EXIT
and hit the Enter key to exit Command Prompt - reboot to Normal Mode Windows.
Now run SFC /SCANNOW in an Elevated Command Prompt
then reboot and upload the new CBS.log file to your SkyDrive Public folder, and post a new link
Also run a new MGADiag report, and post the result.

CodeVisio · Nov 17, 2012

NoelDP,

I've followed your instructions successfully.
- Where did you get the folder with pngfilt.dll inside the zip?
- Under Command Prompt, why there are so many volumes or partitions?
- Just a note for future references. Do not click F8 during bios boot process (after the beep). If you have a bios like mine then an hard disk boot menu will appear allowing you to choose the hard disk you want to use for the OS boot process. Instead, if you have a multi boot sequence, as I have, then you can wait until the boot menu appear and then you simply click F8: The advanced menu with will appear.

The SCF utility ended with the following string "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.".
- I checked the pngfilt.dll under \Windows\SysWOW64, under \Windows\System32, and under \Windows\WinSxS folders and it was OK. I can see the file properties.
- the CBS log file link http://sdrv.ms/Uyu13S file name: CBD_2012_11_18.zip.

This is the MGADiag report:

Can I try Windows Update now?

Thank you

NoelDP · Nov 17, 2012

As far as partitions go.....
It all depends on how Windows was installed - and that depends on whether your manufacturer had any clue what they were doing or not, and whether your installed the OS yourself or not, using default methods - or not!
The Repair Environment enumerates drives in the order they appear on the hard disk.
A default clean install of Windows will have two partitions - one of which is invisible to Windows normally - the System Reserved partition, and the normal Windows partition (drive C

.
The System Reserved partition will appear in the RE as drive C: - forcing the Windows partition into the D: drive
In most OEM installs, the Recovery partition is in the first place - if there is also a System Reserved partition, then that will normally be in second place, thereby forcing the Windows partition to the E: driv ein RE.
If the system is dual-booting, all bets are off

All critical Windows files are nominally stored in two places on the disk - one in the normal working position, and one in the winsxs folder, inside a known folder. replacing the working one is no use, as it's often not actually present at all, and is merely a hard link to the winsxs version.
You have to replace the winsxs version offline (it's pretty heavily protected), and allow the system to work its magic.

Yep, you can try Windows updates again now - the system is now as good as we can get it, so any errors will be within WU itself, and should be identifiable and fixable.

CodeVisio · Nov 18, 2012

It doesn't work

WindowsUpdate gives me the same error as before....

I've checked also Event Viewer log but it doesn't give much information as well...

Any other idea?

Thanks

EDIT: I don't have Microsoft Office package installed, I have only Word Viewer 2003 on my PC.
Why does WindowsUpdate show two important Office 2007 updates to be installed If I don't have that package on my PC?

NoelDP · Nov 18, 2012

OK, now we know that it is basically a WU problem we can start with the WU repairs....

Please open an elevated command prompt and run the following commands

DIR C:\Windows /AR /S

The SoftwareDistribution folder looks to be very small- have you already tried renaming it?

The number of read-only files in the Windows structure outside System32 is rather large - perhaps we should try and pin it down.

Please run the following command in an Elevated Command Prompt - it will create a new file on your desktop called ROFiles.txt

DIR C:\Windows /AR /S >%userprofile%\Desktop\ROFiles.txt

wait for the command prompt to return, then attach the file to your reply

No, I've never seen that folder before.

This is my development PC, is that involved?

The file is in attach.

Thanks
