Hi there,

My repair tool gets Windows updates work when no updates will install. If it is just 1 update that wont install then the problem isnt with Windows updates but more with something that update needs.

Are you able to install other updates fine?

Well, I used to have several updates that won't installed two days ago. All of them has 8000FFFF error. I have been looking around the web for weeks for the solution. Your magic all in one tool solved the problem. Thank you very much.

Only one more problem left.

OK so this is the update that is failing
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2813170

The error means this

0x800703EE ERROR_FILE_INVALID

System could not allocate the requirəd space in a registry log;

The volume for a file has been externally altəred so that the opened file is no longer valid.

I would try my repair tool again, as it deletes all the downloaded files for windows updates, this way it can redownload and try it again. Also make sure to do a chkdsk on the drive to fix any files system errors

Did you do the chkdsk on the drive and check for bad sectors?
