| Guest | Re: unable to update anything and error messages Try this. Go to Start Menu\Programs\Accessories and right-click on Command Prompt. Choose "Run as Administrator". Then type the command: sfc /scannow Press enter on your keyboard. The System File Checker scan may take awhile; this scans all system files. You could also type the command: sfc /SCANFILE=C:\Windows\AppPatch\AcLayers.dll This gives a report, or tries to repair, that particular file.

| Guest | Re: unable to update anything and error messages When you type just this command: sfc /SCANFILE=C:\Windows\AppPatch\AcLayers.dll does it say there were "no integrity violations found" or does it say that there's an error?

| Guest | Re: unable to update anything and error messages Try this. Open Control Panel > Windows Update. Click on "View update history". Is there an entry "Update for Windows Vista (KB935280)"? If there is, go back to the main Windows Update window and click on "Installed Updates" (on the left-hand side of the window, at the bottom), and remove "Update for Microsoft Windows (KB935280)" (only). Then go here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=88379 Download and install the appropriate Package for your computer. If that update is not listed in "View update history", then just go to that page and download and install the appropriate Package for your computer.

| Guest | Re: unable to update anything and error messages I'm not clear at what point you got the "acces denied error". Did the message occur when you were trying to uninstall the update?

| Newbie | Re: unable to update anything and error messages Removing KB935280 fixed my problem. Reinstalling caused the problem to reoccur. As to the 80070005 error, downloading a fresh copy of the windows update agent may help: You receive an access violation error and the system may appear to become unresponsive when you try to install an update from Windows Update or from Microsoft Update |
