    This can happen for two reasons...
    • Windows Update” Service is disabled or not set to Automatic as Startup Type
    • Windows Modules Installer” Service is not set to manual as Startup type.

    To resolve this Windows Vista or Windows 7 update issue, set the Startup type of respective services to “Automatic” & “Manual” respectively.

    To fix this error, go through this simple steps:-

    1. Press Start, type admin in the start menu search box, and click on Administrative Tools

    2. Double-click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation

    3. Right-click the Windows Update service, and then click Properties

    4. On the General tab, next to Startup type, make sure that Automatic is selected

    5. Next to Service status, check to see if the service is started. If it is not, click Start. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    6. Similarly, set the “Windows Modules Installer” service startup type as “manual”.


    First you want to reveal the hidden admin account in Windows 7 and login to the hidden admin account.Thats it..
