[SOLVED] All Windows Updates Fail To Install

So I said screw it a few weeks ago when I got back home safe and sound. Thanks! Now running clean install of Windows 8.1 x64. Pretty happy with it too. Look forward to Windows 10 clean install next year. ;)

[SOLVED] All Windows Updates Fail To Install

Well like most nights I'm lucky if I have time for an hour of free time. That's what happens when you work 12.5 hour shifts which in reality are 18 hours. Really think I have time or want to take the time to play with the computer? :p Pretty sure people are more important. Hell even the 3...

[SOLVED] All Windows Updates Fail To Install

I indeed agree completely. Just a tough choice when you really do NOT have the time to start over. Hell and next year is going to be out of the question too. Afghanistan here I come! So yeah my computers are going to be my very last priority shortly I'm afraid.

[SOLVED] All Windows Updates Fail To Install

Hey, I indeed plan on sticking around. :) Sadly I have had to restore my backup image, so back on my "broken" Windows 7. Why you ask? Well everything was great until I rebooted today. "Blue Screen" with some BS error about not being able to Load Windows. None of the repair options worked...

[SOLVED] All Windows Updates Fail To Install

Hey, All right, gave it another shot. After removing a ton of stuff to a different drive. Very strange since I had a ton of free space as it was. Oh well. Attempted the Windows 7 Repair which worked on the 7th try (took awhile to get enough free space it seems) and then upgraded to Windows 8...

OK, so it got to 88% then crashed. :( No errors in Event Viewer this time either. I notice in the error log, setupact.log: And in diagerr.xml: If that is true about the disk then that is crazy since I have 46.3GB free on that Disk. And setuperr.log has lots of these: And lots of:

Hey, Well, I have hacked user32.ddl and user32.dll.mui myself and have backup copies. So that's all good. And thanks for info about WinSxs and servicing\Packages. I figured it would have said something. Well, it's a real shame. Oh well, it's all good. Not a big deal, been living with it for...

Well, will do if I must. But going to see if CrashPlan might just have a backup. :) And I did image my computer at some point, so I might have a decent backup of the components folder somewhere. Downloading a backup via crashplan from Sep 19, 2012. Might I got lucky! My checking it out...

Hi, Very strange. Nope, never used any sort of registry cleaner/optimiser in my life. I know they are bad!!!! And I have a Windows CD but I'd rather not reinstall. I'd rather live with it atm. Started probably 9 months ago. Just been living with it. :( Thanks again, Will
