Windows Update page is sort of, GONE.


Recommended Posts

OS is Win 7 x64.

"Out of the blue", I cannot see anything on the Windows Update page. I changed icons with the Tango Patcher about 2 weeks ago, but all was fine until yesterday. See .gif and pic to understand better.

Sounds like the Windows Update components have been corrupted and might need to be re-registered. Usually it's spyware that would do that, but if you say it's just happened out of the blue (and you've had no other side effects), it's hard to see why that's the case.

I thought that maybe I could find a solution before running sfc /scannow. :D That is my last resort, as customized stuff will go down the drain if I do.

Malware is out of the question, I scan 2 times/day with Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware, I'll just check the error number, that is the thing that I didn't think of. Thanks everyone. :)

You can scan specific files rather than the entire system with sfc, or just run a check and not a repair etc

Some examples here

SFC solved nothing. The service is running and shows this instead of proper important/less important updates.

System Restore is off, I use Acronis (full backup of the C Drive), unfortunately the backup made 2 days ago has this bug in it.

EDIT: I'll remove the Icon Pack as last solution. If it fails, I need a new Windows install.

    • Huh? I have an Aeron Remastered and the backrest cannot go up or down (only the lumbar is adjustable). Yes, the Doro C300 Pro V2's backrest can be locked, but the locking mechanism is so weak that when you recline and lean back the backrest moves with your body. I think the whole purpose of this chair is that all of the moving parts (except for the rocking, which can be locked in place) are supposed to move with your body, as you shift your weight, that's why I couldn't get used to it. Some people might like it though. Its redeeming factor is the price, I mean it costs like a quarter of what a new Herman MIller (Aeron) costs.
    • Well done Massie. This is how to treat the Fox News filth.   
    • I notice how you dodged the questions I had about the racism shown by ignorant, gullible, cowardly people when the Poles, like your partner, were the immigrants. Ahem. I wonder how you'd feel if native born Brits suddenly treated you as "dirty crooked immigrant" for being half Trump-American? If they ordered you to leave and "go back to your corrupt country" (on the other side of the Atlantic), would you go? The truth is based on facts as supported by evidence. As requested in your previous posts, I have used the facts in your own post to show everyone the truth.
    • US citizens are paying to their government, who could use that to fund healthcare and tuition and relieve the costs of these for citizens instead of making tax breaks that overwhelmingly favor the rich. I'm not saying that tariffs are the correct solution, but what else would they be used for? What else could Trump have in mind for wanting them, if he hasn't figured out that labor costs are higher in the US?
