Windows Vista Update Will not install

I am trying to install Vista update KB929735 but it fails every time with
error code 80073712. Can anyone help?  I have tried to run reg delete
HKLM\COMPONENTS /v StoreDirty but this just throws up an error. Can anyone
help?

Dave,

Suggest you try this -

'administrator credentials' means password, *if* you've created same for
the Admin account. If not, just leave the 'credentials' blank and press
Enter.

Windows Vista Update Will not install

I have tried this and I get the following message:
The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value. This is
the SECOND time I have been told to carry out this task and this is the
SECOND time I have told Microsoft that this does not work.

I don't work for and I don't have Vista installed.

I don't work for Microsoft and I don't have Vista installed.
Sorry it didn't resolve the issue.

So, you tried a search something like this to find that tip?

(0x80073712 OR 80073712 OR 14098)  site:microsoft.com


If guessing doesn't work perhaps it's time to try some diagnosis?   <eg>

Try installing it manually with verbose mode logging?

What is the context of the code (or its aliases) in the install log(s)?

I don't have Vista but as I understand it you may have to right-click the shortcut
and use the  Run as...  dialog to run that task as an Administrator.
See if doing that changes your symptom?

BTW it may help if you clarify what exactly it is that you're trying to do.
You're reopening a long dead thread and essentially ignoring all previous
discussion in it so we don't know whether those details apply to you
or whether you are just piggybacking this (unrelated?) question on it.


Good luck
