Windows Update error 800B0100

apaulsalerno said:

I have the same problem vr4gt is having I think. I am unable to install the last batch of Microsoft updates. I allready ran the readiness tool and the hotfix suggested by Microsoft, and I have tried every other suggestion I can find online except for starting over with a "clean installation".

Hello, and welcome to the Seven Forums!

Can you also please post your C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log, and I will see if anything can be done.

Thanks a lot!

I also ran a Microsoft fix, one that you have the choice of running in aggresive mode. I ran it in aggresive mode, now I am going to try running the updates manually, one at a time. I will post my results.

OK, I tried running these seperately, heres what I got:


KB2570791- *This KB2570791 is for a different hardware platform.
KB2563227 -The update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2560656 -The update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2547666 -The update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2536276 -*This KB2536276-v2 is for a different hardware platform.
KB2567053 - This update installed, but I have to reboot for it to take effect still.
KB2570947 - The update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2545698 - The update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2562937 - This update is for Windows XP Sp3 and not the OS I have, Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and would not download.
KB2539635 - This one installed and needs rebooted.


I tried to update the next one but I need to reboot first, I will finish posting after I reboot and try to run the rest of the updates.

OK, those 2 updates took, here goes the rest:

KB2586448 - Not enough storage available to process this request. Installation failed.

KB2579686 - This installed OK.
KB2518869 - This installed but needs rebooted.
KB2572077 - This also installed OK.
KB2529073 - This update is not applicable to your computer.
KB2567680 - This was another update for XP, but not for Windows 7. "There is not enough storage available for this application. Update failed to install."
KB982018 - This is for x86 32 bit versions of Windows 7 but not for x64 bit versions. The file was not able to install.


It looks like the only problem I have is that the update manager is trying to install updates that are not compatable with Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. I hope I dont continually have problems like this.

Nice to hear that things are improving re Updates.


RE -

At times we are offered updates that may not be required by our system.
I have noticed in Update History they appear as installed successfully.
However on checking Event Viewer it is stated that some were not required.

Again to reiterate..
Re your update settings -
* I suggest you change them to notify you but let you choose when to download them.
* Do a few at a time only rather than "oodles" at once.
* Reboot
* Then should there be problems it is far easier to find the "culprit " early.

Yes, jmh that sounds smart, I am going to start updating manually and looking at what I download from now on.

Please keep in touch re your progress.
Good luck too. :)
