Unable to Install Windows Update

niw · Nov 8, 2015

I have uninstall the antivirus software from the desktop. I ran the Windows update, and it fails.

Thank you for the information. To continue troubleshooting your issue I would like you to remove your antivirus software McAfee Internet Security. Make sure you have your license key before uninstalling so we may re-install it when the issue is resolved.

Please let me know when this is done. Thank you.

BrianDrab · Nov 9, 2015

Thanks. Now that the antivirus is uninstalled, please do the following again.

Step#1 - Run Windows Repairs
Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.
1. Download Windows Repair (All-in-One) Portable to your desktop.
2. Once the file is downloaded, right-click on the file on your desktop and choose Extract All...

3. Keep the defaults and click the Extract button.
4. A folder named tweaking.com_windows_repair_aio will be extracted to the desktop. Once the extraction is complete the folder will open.
5. Inside this folder, there is a folder named Tweaking.com - Windows Repair. Open this folder as well.

6. Double-click on Repair_Windows.exe to open. Note: Please make sure all of your programs are closed and anything you were working on is saved as we will be rebooting.
7. When the program opens, click the Repairs tab and click the Open Repairs button.
8. A backup of your registry will be made. After a few moments you will have many options from which you can choose.
9. Please click the Unselect All button and then click to enable only the following ones:

05 - Repair WMI
06 - Repair Windows Firewall
10 - Remove Policies Set By Infection
14 - Remove Temp Files
15 - Repair Proxy Settings
17 - Repair Windows Updates

10. Ensure the Restart check box is selected and click the Start Repairs button in the lower right of the screen. This may take some time to run so be patient.

11. Once the fixes are complete you will be prompted to restart your machine. Answer Yes.

I ran the repair tool, restart the system, and ran Windows update. The issue still persist. Any additional help will appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Thanks. Please do the following.

Step#1 - FRST Fix
NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system
1. Download attached file and save it to the Desktop.
Note. It's important that both files, FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work (in this case...the desktop).

OK I see that your machine is definately not activated. Do you have the Product Key shown on the COA sticker on your machine's case? Let me know if you see the sticker.

niw · Nov 20, 2015

Yes, I have the product key. I tried to activate it but, got error message that indicate the "software licensing" service is not running. When I tried to start the service I got the attached error message.

BrianDrab · Nov 20, 2015

Ahhh....OK, this should fix your issue now. Please do the following.
1. Save this file to your desktop.
2. Double click the file which should be named RegFix.reg.
3. When asked if you want to merge into the registry please answer yes.
4. Reboot

Then try to start the service again or at least verify it is running.

niw · Nov 21, 2015

I recieved the same error message when I tried to start the service, after I implemented the registry fix.

BrianDrab · Nov 22, 2015

OK. Please do the following.

1. Click your start button and type cmd in the search box.
2. Right-click on cmd that comes up in the search results and select Run as administrator. Answer Yes to the UAC prompt if it appears.
3. Copy/Paste the following into the command-prompt window and hit enter.
reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\slsvc /s >1.txt && notepad 1.txt

4. Notepad will open showing the WU info. Can you copy and paste this into your next reply?

Thanks. Please do the following.

Step#1 - SFCFix Script
Warning: this fix is specific to the user in this thread. No one else should follow these instructions as it may cause more harm than good. If you are after assistance, please start a thread of your own.

Download SFCFix.exe (by niemiro) and save this to your Desktop. If you still have this on your desktop from downloading previously, you don't need to re-download.
Download the file below, SFCScript.txt, and save this to your Desktop.
Save any open documents and close all open windows.
On your Desktop, you should see two files: SFCFix.exe and SFCScript.txt.
Drag the file SFCScript.txt onto the file SFCFix.exe and release it.
SFCFix will now process the script.
Upon completion, a file should be created on your Desktop: SFCFix.txt.
Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of this file into your next post for me to analyse please
