Thanks Kirt. you're an excellent tutor. You helped me fix my windows updates. I appreciate your big help :)

[Yeshuaschosen]

Thanks Kirt! I did a new install of Windows 7 after Windows 10 almost killed my computer but couldn't do any updates on 7 until I watched your video!So I went into Services (C drive)and stopped windows update then changed my settings to "never update" in Control panel .After that I was able to manually download and install some critical updates such as Service Pack 1. Now I don't get the error message anymore!I restored my settings after I was done.Thanks a million!

Thank you very much. The downloaded files and further steps as guided by you worked on a HCL laptop of 2007 that came with Vista originally. Your description of steps is wonderful ! Will look forward to your videos on other troubleshooting too! Best wishes.

[Vernis]

You fixed my computer when no one else could! I looked at another video before I found yours. I stopped when the guy said uninstall everything and download Linux to find the fixes the microsoft problem. A mess! You are awesome! Thank you so much!

Pulled out an old Compaq Presario from storage. Worked fine, but could not get Windows Update to work at all and it hadn't been updated in quite a few years. Did my searches on the Internet to find a solution. Frustrated that none of the tricks I found worked. Found this video and tried the second trick. IT WORKED! Thank you for posting this.

[Mrs.Darcy]

Use the first option and it perfectly worked. Thank you very much. You are a genius. You saved my life.

I had 2 issues. First was an update error code 80072efe which required downloading an update direct from MS. The Second issue was a Failure to Install Code 80092004 which required downloading and installing files associated with SHA hash checks.

Downloading those catalog/files was a bit challenging. Had to put them on a thumb drive, then install on my Dell Vostro 1720. When i tried on the old Dell to get to site where those 2 files were, it wouldn't let me! So installing each one individually, and restarting each time, then checking for updates for 32 bit Win7 Home if found 190 updates to install. So my next step is to install the win10 install media upgrade i have on a thumb drive. Only thing i know i need to do is have the thumb drive plugged in, shut down, start up and keep clicking F12 to boot to the thumb drive, and i'm good to go. Not very tech savy, but extremely persistent! Thanks much for your help

A big and warm THANK to you Kirt, for helping me out with my problems with this old Windows 7 32-bit update. Now it seems to working just fine! Wishing you all the very best and please stay blessed and healthy! Best regards from Sweden! :-)

[snookslayer]

Well done video. My issue is that second download (3172605), when I try to install it says "The update is not applicable to your computer." ??? But the first one installed just fine. I've got Windows 7 64 bit, but I can't update Windows or Microsoft Security Essentials.... both give error messages. Don't like not having a firewall. Any thoughts?
