Re: Vista Ultimate Update KB938194 gives error 80070002

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Two causes have been identified for the updates failure to install:

See if either of those resolves the issue.
If not then you can check the cbs.log for errors and hopefully, find out just where the error is occurring:

WINDOWS\logs\CBS\cbs.log

It is a *big* log file. To locate where the error is occurring first start at the top of the log, click Edit, then Find : KB931894
Then do a Find for ERROR.

80070002 ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
The System cannot find the file specified

The error most likely means that a file in the OS can not be located, not a file in the downloaded update.

Sorry no help. I have renamed and deleted and moved and done just about everything you can do to that Software Distribution Folder but still 80070002 error on that specific update.
I have downloaded the manual update but that just plain fails with no error message.

WHEN IS THE SERVICE PACK FOR VISTA BEING RELEASED !!!!!!!!!!

Or is Vista going the same route as Windows ME , into the trash can.
