Windows Forum / Windows Vista / General Topics / May 2008Problems with Windows Update
Hi Peeps, I'm in real need of some help! I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium and have been having problems with Windows Update. Its failing 11 Updates altogether and the culprit appears to be: Update for Windows Vista (KB942763) The error code given is: 80004005 All error codes for the remaining updates are: 800F0826 This has been going on for over 3 months now and it's really starting to annoy me, the only updates that succeed are Defender and Office. I also get a Windows Modules Installer error reading: WINDOWS_WCP_AI_FAILURE2 could this be the reason behind it all? Looking at the Problem Report it appears to have occured since i first started getting Update failures and has continued ever since. Hope this was not too long winded, but any help would be most appreciated. Thanks Stork The "Software Licensing" service is not started. Click start, type: services.msc  SignatureWas this helpful?

Buy an original copy of Vista and all your problems will disappear. BillD, I can assure you that my copy of Windows Vista is Genuine as it came Pre-Installed on my HP laptop from Comet (one of the biggest electrical retailers in the UK), but thanks for your concern. > > Hi Peeps, > > I'm in real need of some help!

Sometimes updates "fail" simply because you already have the current files, such as printer driver updates after installing the latest printer drivers. In the case of "Update for Windows Vista (KB942763)", it's an update for time zones/daylight savings time. I'm betting you already have the current files. You can hide that one, close everything, restart the computer, and go back to see if the other updates will install one by one. If they do, restart between each one, just in case. Thanks Peeps for your replies (apart from BillD who wrongly accused me of being a thief!!!!). It turns out that the root of my problems was the Comodo Firewall v3, which i have now uninstalled and all the updates have installed themselves. I found this out by browsing this discussion board, so i'd definitely return if i encounter any other troubles. There is a new version of Comodo that claims to fix this problem so i'll give that a whirl. Thanks once again Stork > Hi Peeps, > I'm in real need of some help!
