update Window 7 Professional

Only updates that include the 64 info in the title of the update are being allowed to successfully update. The code was 6BB, then changed to a #d one, but I didn't get that written down. I've tried the download of the Repair.bat as administrator and that didn't work. I've run

Troubleshooters that have come up and they think they've fixed everything, but still only a few updates can download. This has been true since February. I thought they were downloading as I've re-tried updating previously and eventually the update window will say "no new important updates"--but those still had failed...updater just seems to have given up on them.

Help! I bought this hard drive for $800 last year to replace the one with Vista that was always difficult. That plus the tech's hours make this an expensive mistake. Does anyone know how to fix this without reloading Win 7?

    Hope your friend has a legit Office 2007 Enterprise disk, too!

    Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 [which was installed on the refurbished computer when I bought it from Seattle Computers and who did not provide an Office disk] will not allow me to select "Change" in Programs & Features.

    Contact Seattle Computers and ask them how you can either run a Repair of Office 2007 or how you can uninstall/reinstall it.

    Until you can get all security-related updates for Office 2007 installed, the computer & your data should be considered at-risk.

    Is it possible that this is being caused by Kaspersky interfering with security updates?

    Doubtful but anything's possible.

    I have no "extract all" option when I right click--what option should I use?

    I put it on desktop and it doesn't offer the option to run as administrator.

    I do already have a Reset_Windows_Update_Full icon on my desktop that I tried as "run as administrator" [to no avail

    IMHO there's no need to "Reset Windows Update" since you successfully executed Option 3 in this tutorial two weeks ago.

    
Again, sometimes it's too late for the McAfee removal tool to "come to the rescue" - this may be another one of those times.

Tip => When you start shopping for a new computer, cross Seattle Computers off your list.

    I believe you can just click to open the zip folder and right click the correct file and run it as admin that way too.

    Did you follow the rest of the instructions for option 2 and 15... ?
