Windows Update Encountered An Unknown Error Code 3715
up and rise to the top Windows Update Error 490 up vote 1 down vote favorite 1 I'm having some issues installing windows update on this particular Windows 7 PC. I'm trying to (for instance) install Service Pack 1, and its popping up an error saying "Element Not Found", and then marking it as failed with Error Code 490 : "Encountered an Unknown Error" (very useful). This happens to windows update encountered an unknown error code 800b0100 pretty much all windows updates I've been trying to install. So far, things I've tried: Virus Scan Virus Scan Error Scan Running two different Microsoft 'ifixit' related to windows update Running it in safe mode Running the SP1 preperation tool Downloading SP 1 manually and running that Restarting Force shutting it down, taking out the battery and turning it on again This problem has been ongoing for months now. Looking at the System logs I do see a lot of errors but they aren't giving any useful information "Not avaliable" So far nothing has worked, anything else I could try? I can't format the PC unfortunately. windows-7 windows windows-update service-pack share|improve this question edited Feb 9 '13 at 16:43 asked Feb 9 '13 at 16:16 Haedrian 4639 Just curious, why can't you reformat? Have you tried force-shutting down (hold power button for a few seconds) and rebooting? –danielcg Feb 9 '13 at 16:26 1 Because its not my machine and the owner doesn't want it to be reformatted. I have tried shutting down, restarting and pulling the battery out and the rest. –Haedrian Feb 9 '13 at 16:29 Try looking at the event logs for any useful information.

Windows 7: Unable to Install Windows 7 SP1 or IE9 using Windows Update Page 1 of 4 windows update encountered an unknown error code 2 1 23 > Last » 28 May 2014 #1 jmak18 Windows 7 Home Premium x64 21 posts Unable to Install Windows 7 SP1 or IE9 using Windows Update Hi there, as you can tell by the http://superuser.com/questions/548874/windows-update-error-490 title, I've been having this problem for quite a while (several years now) now but haven't had the time or knew where to go to get help until now. I've tried installing both updates together and individually, but whichever way I do it the updates fail to install. I've also tried installing IE9 in the past from the Microsoft website, but that also failed to install. Other than these two particular updates, I've never had another failed http://www.sevenforums.com/windows-updates-activation/333004-unable-install-windows-7-sp1-ie9-using-windows-update.html update that wasn't able to resolve itself after a computer restart for example. I followed all the steps as per the Windows Update Posting Instructions including installing SURT from the provided link, running the SFC scan (3 times in total after being notified in the first scan that there were corrupted files that weren't fixed), and jotting down the error codes produced after the failed installations. I have attached the CBS log to this post. The error code produced after attempting to install Windows 7 SP1 was Code 2. The error code produced after attempting to install IE9 was Code 490. Both errors are followed by the statement: "Windows Update encountered an unknown error" If there's anything else you need please post and I'll post it up her ASAP. Thank for your help EDIT: I also forgot to mention that the system I have is an Acer laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium, 3 GB of memory with NIS 2014.
