Update Error66A Shutting down for the night, I noticed that my 64-bit Vista machine had “Updates ready to install” for the 3rd night in a row.. which is a pretty good clue that at least one Update was 0x80070666 failing to install. So, I clicked on the Start button > All Programs > Windows .net repair tool Update > “View update history“. Sure enough, in the “Status” column, I saw a “failed”.. on an Update named “Security Update for
Code 80070103
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (KB2160841)” (also applies to KB2446708). So to find out what the problem was, I right-clicked > “View details”. What I am looking for is the “error code”. I saw that the code in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-update/error-code-66a-net-framework-4/1307e399-8997-41c4-9d3b-24f872425148 this case is 66A. Clicking “Get help with this error” led to several ‘solution’ suggestions – too many. So I will tell you the one that works for me. Step 1) Click Start > Control Panel > Programs and features. Step 2) Scroll down until you find Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile, and click on it, once, to “select” it (turn it blue), then click the Uninstall/Change menu button (above list). Step 3) https://techpaul.wordpress.com/2011/07/18/cure-for-windows-update-error-66a/ A new window will open. Make sure the “Repair” radio button is selected, and press “next”. The automatic repair may take a few minutes to complete. Step 4) Return to Windows Update (as per Step 1) and make sure that only the “Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (KB2160841) is checked, and click “Retry” or “Install Updates”. Now the Update should succeed. If it doesn’t, get the “standalone” installer by clicking here and choose either 32 (x86) or 64 bit (x64) to match your system. If that fails, I suggest calling Microsoft’s support number for free tech support (as this qualifies as a security issue) 1-866-PC-SAFETY. (That's right. Free. Microsoft provides free support for any safety/security related problem.) * Orig post: 4/17/11 Free offer: Folks, I just noticed that on buy.com, you can get a free 6 months of CA's (Computer Associates) antivirus + anti-spyware.. if you need some protection.

Every time I shut down my laptop, it TRIES to Update. I finally realized that something is wrong. I went into the Update folder in Control Panel and looked at the "update history" to find that every time I shut down, .net framework the update attempts have "failed". The error code is 66A. I tried the "Windows Fix-It" and it didn't work. I don't know what to try next. The three update items are for NET.Framework 4. Its getting very annoying because it takes a lot longer to shut down my computer. Anyone else encounter this problem ?? How can I fix this problem? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Ed There have been recent problems I know of (in XP) of net.framework updates being resent, which were older updates already installed or superseceded with later updates. I changed the update options to download, but let me choose when to install. Then chose Custom install, and eliminated the net.framework updates from trying to reinstall. m 0 l rdc85 a b $ Windows 7 27 June 2012 14:52:05 U
