    I also received the error message "Windows update_0000066A" "Windows update_dt000" when trying to download the update from Microsoft. NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1. I have Vista X64 Interior. All other updates, including new Service Pack have installed fine. It is precisely this "important" is not. Any suggestion that I have read so far involve removing security updates starting with KB88 ... and I have none. The entire my updates begin with KB9.... I've only had this system since one month and now go throughout all my updates and establish that this update has unsuccessful each time since one week I estimate the update icon reverse after installing the new Service Pack. Any suggestions on this and thank you very much for any help.

    I would like to advise you to download the Installer CleanUp utility on your system. To do this go to some official website and then download theism file and then save it on your desktop. Once you complete the saving file now select the msicuu2.exe and then make right click on that and after that select the Run as administrator. Now you will get the installation wizard tool and after that follow the steps on the windows wizard. Once you complete the installation and then restart your system and the issue will get solved.
