Welcome to the forum.

Do a sfc scannow and reboot when prompted to:

Also do what the link below says you:
What is the System Update Readiness Tool?

Post back for further suggestions.

System Update Readiness Tool shows me error when i launch him 0x80070424 The specified service does not exist as an installed device.

services.msc should be there. Its a prt of Operating system.

Did you run the file checker?

Here is a step by step screenshot.

First type services.msc in the start menu. once the service manager opens serach for "windows Update" and then select it and click properties. Then change its start up to manula first and select OK. Then again select windows update>properties and change its startup type to "automatic (delayed)" or "automatic">click apply and OK. Restart your PC.

Why did you ask to have Windows Up Dates disabled? I can't think of any good reason to do that. It seem like instead of disabling the service it was removed.
If you have complete all the other recommendation previously posted and this
Error 0x80070424 ocurs when you use Windows Update, Microsoft Update, or Windows Firewall
all I can think of is a clean install. A couple of options.

Yes Layback Bear is right absolutely. That pesron has deleted the service instead of disabling it. Thats why you don't have Windows update service.

 

[skanungo]

Yes Layblack Bear has pointed out the correct thing. That person deleted windows update service instead of disabling it.

Disabling Windows Updates causes users so many issues here. Leave it running! It is necessary function of W7. I suspect the seller has used group policy or permissions to keep updates from running.
You could also try a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html#post31238 but I suspect a fresh install is in your future.

yesi think it was removed becouse i dont have any files in services that others have so yep it was removed

 

[Layback Bear]

Could you tell us why you didn't want Windows Up Dates? You can not have a safe proper working Windows 7 without Windows Up Dates. In Windows safety starts with Windows Up Dates.

You should try some of the steps given you before we can really help you.

Do you have intel rapid storage technology drivers installed? If so, try uninstalling or updating them.

 

[slipknot56]

i did all of them i think i can only reinstall windows 7 i asked him to disable updates not to remove them i didnt saw that he removed it

 

[Britton30]

Can you call the tech to confirm he removed it?
Try this:
Type "msconfig" into the "Run" or "Search" box in the Start menu. This opens a window that contains your startup files. Click on the "Start Up" tab and scroll down to find "Windows Update." Click the box beside "Update. " Click on "Apply" and then choose "Close."
Let us know if it is there.
