This is so annoying. It downloaded to 18% then stopped, saying TRY AGAIN in red. "Some updates failed to install."

Code 80200053

Trying againa nd again and always it is the same. It starts at 15% and then goes to 18%, stops, the error appears.

Ideas? Talk about frustrating. :thumbsdown:

Doubtful. All the other updates were fine. They breezed by. But I am just stuckl and it seems it happens a lot from goggling. But no solution that I can find.

I would love to just manually download the thing into my download folder and then cloick on it to install, but the manual download center is impossible to understand. It lists multiple files...

Okay, WHICH ONE?! I have no idea.

For the record I have a 3.4GHz i7 running Windos Ultimate 64 bit.

The last 2 on your list are the standalone installers. x64 is the 64-bot version, x86 is the 32-bit version. If you download through Windows update, the download size is smaller.

I went through the same thing three weeks ago with that error. I think on my eighth attempt on day number two it got passed 18% but it was downloading really really slow so I canceled it. I also reimaged back a day before I tried downloading it through Windows Update just so things weren't messed up.

Just download the standalone installer and update that way which is what I did.

Correct link here:

windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe - This application installs Sp1 to a 32-bit machine running Windows 7.

windows6.1-KB976932-X64.exe - This application installs Sp1 to a 64-bit machine running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

You can also order SP1 for Win7 on a dvd from here:

https://om2.one.microsoft.com/opa/V...060615fec1b&LocaleCode=en-us&JavaScriptOn=yes

It is $5.99 for shipping

Well, I downloaded the nearly 1GB file and it worked. What a pain in the rear, but at least that is over.

But now other updates are not loading or installing. AARRGGHH!!!!! Ridiculous. WTF Microsoft?

Quite often after a major amount of updates, you should reboot the computer, even if they don't tell you to. Clear your temporary files and then try again. If need be, do it 1 update at a time. This way at least, you will know which update is causing the problem.
