coucou Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hello, I'm running Win7 Ultimate x64 bits and Office 2013 Pro x64. Today Windows has invited me to install the latest updates, they are 4 and all relate to Office 2013 (see image below) After some time Windows update returns "Installation failed" Code Error: 8007006E. I have restarted the installation, Windows update returns me Failed to install "Code Error: 8007006E (see image below). So I downloaded these update, They are .exe files https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3191940 Https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3191935 Https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3172501 https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3191872 When I run any of these files, I have a first "Please wait while the update detection" message and then a second message "An error occurred during the detection process" (see image below). I'll appreciate any help Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalju Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Are you sure you have installed the Office 64-bit, but not 32-bit. There have been Situations Where It is so is installed 32-bit Office, but system is 64-bit. Is the folder %Windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download empty? You do not use a third-party antivirus and firewall? Have you made restart after the last installation? No matter what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coucou Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 TNX for replying 1) YES, Office is a 64 bits 2) %Windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download is not empty (they are the 4 updates I need) 3) Yes I've the same Antivirus and Firewall (Symantec Endpoint) since while. Never got problems with windows update. The last succesfull updates are dated 23 of May. 4) Yes, at least 4 tmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalju Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Thanks. Open Command Prompt as Admin and run this command sfc.exe /scannow if it ends, You see, was there some problems, what was not corrected. If were, run this command findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt it will make on desktop file sfcdetails.txt and it will contain a report, also these errors, what was not repaired. Then we can think what to do for next. NB! c is drive letter, where is Windows installed, if You have other, replace it Post the sfcdetails.txt here or to some text upload server, if there is something.

Kalju Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Then is a thinking place, everything seems to be fine. If before all updates have been installed without problems, must not hurry, maybe somebody else have the same problem. Don't hurry. Perhaps only one thing to try - turn the antivirus and the firewall off and try then. Sometimes it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macnavarra Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 1) Click Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box. 2) In the search results list, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator. 3) When you are prompted by User Account Control, click Continue. 2. At the command prompt, type "net stop WuAuServ" (without quotations) and press Enter. 3. Click Start, type "%windir%" (without quotations) in the Start Search box and press Enter. 4. In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution" and open it. 5. Double click the DataStore folder and locate the DataStore.edb file. Right-click on the file, select "Rename" and type "DataStoreold" (without quotations) to rename this file. 6. Open command prompt, type in the command "net start WuAuServ" (without quotations) and press Enter to restart the Automatic Updates service. Then check if the updates failure history is cleared.

Holmes Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 The software distribution folder contains cache of the windows updates that get downloaded if that cache becomes corrupt for any reason windows updates wont install and you get a error message. You deleted that cache or changed the folder name or deleted the folder and that fixed any corrupted windows update cache there was if there was corrupted windows update cache. Im happy you fixed it congratulations and enjoy your new office updates. Also welcome to the forums never seen you before I dont think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I deleted the software distribution folder contains cache (renamed to old. So, a new software distribution folder created) see above, the Office updates fails to be installed (the windows updtaes installed successfully). After 2 days without doing anything the office updates installed successfuly. BTW I have been a nsane member for about 10 years @agent86: As I wrote ebove, I"m not interested by Windows 10 Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
