Re: Windows Defender update FAIL

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Microsoft has established separate newsgroups for Windows Defender support and comments. This is not one of them.

I tried to install throuw Windows Update. It said that the update could no
be installed.
When i used Windows Defender to update it says:
THE PROGRAM CANT INSTALL DEFENITION UPDATES
Error found: Code 0x80070643

I reinstalled Windows Defender, but it didnt work..
I cleared the Software Distribution > Download folder and tried but it still
failed.. I have searched the newsgroups and google for a few days with no
answer..

This is pissing me off. I have reinstalled Windows again probably 3-4 times
THIS YEAR.. I dont want to do it again.

By the way, i have 2 harddisks. Both have XP and the exact same programs. On
one Defender works - on the other it dosent.

My Windows Update log can be found in:

* start looking from 2007-03-27 (the first erros are there)

Thanks for your replies :)
