Windows Update Error Code 646...
I have been receiving Error Code 646 for the following three items that
Windows Update has been trying to install: Security Update for Microsoft
Visio Viewer 2007; and these two updates: Security Update for 2007 Microsoft
Office System.
I tried to install them both yesterday and today and still the same result.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate SP2.
What can I do to resolve this?

7-18-2010 I too have been trying to download important security updates on my Vista Windows for days and days...and kept getting the Error 646 code...Then I saw a solution someone posted that said simply: "I disconnected from the wireless and the updates installed fine." I thought that was too easy...but having tried everything else, thought I'd give it a shot!
IT WORKED...my computer is completely up to date!
Have a nice day...and I hope this is your "easy fix" too! :0)

Try this, click start/control panel/user accounts/Turn User Account Controlon/off/ Uncheck box that says Use User Account to help protect your computer. This worked fro me..Let me know if it helped you too..Phil..
