Windows Update Loop Fix
An automated script to fix the «Checking for Updates» loop on Windows 7 SP1
Overview
After installing a fresh copy of Windows 7, Windows Update will hang when trying to check for updates. This problem occurs because a fresh copy of Windows 7 doesn’t have the required updates to interface with Microsoft’s servers. The fix is to download and install the following updates:
- April 2015 servicing stack update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 (KB3020369)
- July 2016 update rollup for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (KB3172605)
- The latest Windows Update Agent for Windows 7 (v7.6.7600.256)
This script was written to automate the process. It is divided into three stages:
- Downloads the updates and resets all Windows Update components
- Installs the latest Windows Update Agent
- Installs KB3020369 and KB3172605
You can download and install the updates yourself, but running the script ensures that any previous Windows Update issues are cleared out before the updates are applied, and that the packages are installed in the correct order.
Compatibility
To install these updates or run this script, you should have Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 installed.
Instructions
- Download the latest release from here
- Exit any running applications
- Double-click the UpdateFix.exe file and follow the instructions
-
The «Custom (Advanced Users Only)» option allows you to skip to a specific stage of the fix
-
For the best results, choose «Express Fix (Recommended)» to run through all the stages in order
An Internet Connection is required to download the updates, however, it is recommended to disconnect from the Internet once the updates have been downloaded. Doing so prevents Windows Update from attempting to connect while it is being serviced.
Package Safety
This script is comprised of three (3) individual batch files. The batch files were archived into .7z format and then the archive was used to create a 7-Zip Self-Extracting Archive using the official modules provided by Igor Pavlov. The .exe file was scanned with Windows Defender using the latest definitions available at the time of upload to GitHub.
How The Script Works
When it is double-clicked, the self-extracting .exe file extracts three batch files to the Windows TEMP directory:
- master.cmd
- updates.cmd
- cleanup.cmd
As its name suggests, «master.cmd» is the main batch file. It:
- Downloads the updates from Microsoft and stores them in C:packages
- Copies «updates.cmd» and «cleanup.cmd» to C:packages
- Resets Windows Update Components
- Installs the Windows Update Agent
- Sets the RunOnce registry key to run the next file, «updates.cmd» after the restart
After the restart, updates.cmd unpacks the .msu files for KB3020369 and KB3172605 and installs them using DISM. A log file is created at C:install.log. It also sets the RunOnce registry key to run the final file, «cleanup.cmd».
After the final restart, «cleanup.cmd» deletes the files in the C:packages folder, provides the user a summary of the operations, and then deletes itself.
Help
-
With the sunset of Windows 7, version 5.0 is likely the last version, unless a bug needs to be fixed.

824684 Description of the standard terminology that is used to describe Microsoft software updates
В этой инструкции о том, как исправить большинство типичных ошибок обновления Windows 11 или Windows 10, 8.1 и Windows 7 несколькими способами: путем использования утилиты с сайта Майкрософт, вручную в командной строке или с помощью простого скрипта, который полностью сбрасывает и очищает настройки Центра обновлений и другими методами.
С помощью описанных ниже методов можно исправить большинство ошибок, когда обновления в Центре обновлений не скачиваются или сообщается, что произошли ошибки при установке обновления. Дополнительную информацию по возможным решениям можно найти в конце руководства.
Использование средства устранения неполадок обновлений в Windows 11 и Windows 10
В Windows предусмотрено встроенное средство устранения неполадок при установке обновлений, это же средство можно скачать и с официального сайта Майкрософт.
При возникновении проблем с обновлениями рекомендую начать именно с этого варианта: он не самый результативный, но самый простой и безопасный:
- В Windows 11 зайдите в Параметры — Система — Устранение неполадок — Другие средства устранения неполадок — Центр обновления Windows и нажмите кнопку «Запуск».
- В Windows 10 средство устранения неполадок находится в Параметры — Обновление и безопасность — Устранение неполадок — Дополнительные средства устранения неполадок — Центр обновления Windows.
- Если доступа к Параметрам нет, вы можете скачать средство устранения неполадок обновлений Windows с официального сайта https://aka.ms/wudiag и запустить файл.
При использовании инструмента «Диагностики и предотвращения неполадок на компьютере» будет автоматически выполнен поиск возможных проблем со службами, отвечающих за установку обновлений и сброс некоторых параметров Центра обновлений.
После выполнения проверки и устранения неполадок можно попробовать установить обновления снова.
Очистка кэша обновлений Windows вручную
Этот способ срабатывает для большого количества ошибок при скачивании и установке обновлений в Windows 11, Windows 10 и Windows 8.1. Порядок действий следующий:
- Запустите командную строку от имени администратора. Для этого можно использовать поиск на панели задач: начните вводить «Командная строка», нажмите правой кнопкой мыши по результату и выберите пункт «Запуск от имени администратора».
- По порядку введите следующие команды, нажимая Enter после каждой:
net stop cryptSvc net stop bits net stop msiserver ren C:WindowsSystem32catroot2 catroot2.old ren C:WindowsSoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old net start wuauserv net start cryptSvc net start bits net start msiserver
- Закройте командную строку и попробуйте повторить поиск, скачивание и установку обновлений через Центр обновлений.
Утилита Reset Windows Update Tool
Ранее на сайте Microsoft TechNet была доступна специальная утилита для полного сброса параметров центра обновлений Windows 10, 8.1 и Windows 7 — Reset Windows Update Tool, выполняющая полный набор действий, каждое из которых направлено на исправление различных моментов, способных мешать скачиванию и установке обновлений через Центр обновлений. Сейчас официальный сайт инструмента изменился, но эффективность — нет.Перед использованием утилиты рекомендую создать точку восстановления системы. Следующие шаги будут выглядеть следующим образом:
- Скачайте Reset Windows Update Tool в нужной разрядности с сайта https://wureset.com/downloads.php.
- После установки, запустите Reset Windows Update Tool от имени администратора (правый клик — запуск от имени администратора) и выберите нужный язык, русский в наличии, но в моем случае отображается в неправильной кодировке, поэтому далее показаны действия на английском языке.
- Вам будет предложено согласиться с тем, что гарантий исправной работы утилиты не дается и ввести «Y», если вы согласны.
- Вы увидите меню, в котором можно выбрать, какие действия следует выполнить для исправления работы центра обновлений. Рекомендую следующий порядок: 2, 3, 6, 11, 12, 13 с последующей перезагрузкой компьютера.
Полный список доступных опций в утилите текущей версии:
- Открыть параметры защиты системы.
- Сброс компонентов Центра обновлений Windows.
- Удаление временных файлов.
- Открыть параметры Internet Explorer.
- Запуск chkdsk на системном разделе (проверка диска на ошибки).
- Запуск проверки целостности системных файлов.
- Проверка целостности хранилища компонентов.
- Проверка образа на наличие отметки «поврежденный».
- Автоматическое восстановление хранилища компонентов с помощью dism.exe
- Очистка устаревших компонентов.
- Удаление записей реестра с ошибками.
- Сброс и исправление параметров Winsock.
- Принудительное обновление локальных групповых политик.
- Запуск поиска обновлений Windows.
- Поиск ключа продукта Windows.
- Поиск других локальных исправлений (открывает устранение неполадок Windows).
- Поиск дополнительных способов исправления онлайн (открывает справку на сайте Майкрософт в браузере).
- Перезапуск ПК.
Подробно об использовании утилиты в отдельной статье: Как исправить ошибки обновлений с помощью Reset Windows Update Tool.
Сброс центра обновлений Windows для исправления ошибок с помощью bat-файла
Для того, чтобы исправить многие ошибки при установке и загрузке обновлений Windows 10, 8.1 и Windows 7, бывает достаточно полностью сбросить параметры центра обновлений. Я покажу, как сделать это автоматически. В дополнение к сбросу, предложенный скрипт запустит необходимую службу, если вы получаете сообщение о том, что Центр обновления не запущен.
Кратко о том, что происходит при выполнении нижеследующих команд:
- Останавливаются службы: Центр обновления Windows, Фоновая интеллектуальная служба передачи BITS, Службы криптографии.
- Служебные папки центра обновления catroot2, SoftwareDistribution, downloader переименовываются в catroot2.old и т.д. (которые, если что-то пошло не так, можно использовать как резервные копии).
- Все ранее остановленные службы снова запускаются.
Для того, чтобы использовать скрипт, откройте блокнот Windows и скопируйте в него команды, представленные ниже. После этого сохраните файл с расширением .bat — это и будет сценарий для остановки, сброса и перезапуска Центра обновлений Windows (подробнее: Как создать BAT-файл).
@ECHO OFF echo Sbros Windows Update echo. PAUSE echo. attrib -h -r -s %windir%system32catroot2 attrib -h -r -s %windir%system32catroot2*.* net stop wuauserv net stop CryptSvc net stop BITS ren %windir%system32catroot2 catroot2.old ren %windir%SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old ren "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%application dataMicrosoftNetworkdownloader" downloader.old net Start BITS net start CryptSvc net start wuauserv echo. echo Gotovo echo. PAUSE
После того, как файл создан, кликните по нему правой кнопкой мыши и выберите пункт «Запуск от имени администратора», вам будет предложено нажать любую клавишу для начала, после чего по порядку будут выполнены все необходимые действия (еще раз нажимаем любую клавишу и закрываем командную строку).
И, наконец, обязательно перезагрузите компьютер. Сразу после перезагрузки снова зайдите в Центр обновления и посмотрите, исчезли ли ошибки при поиске, скачивании и установке обновлений Windows.
На сайте Майкрософт также приводятся шаги для выполнения всех необходимых действий по сбросу вручную: Сброс центра обновлений Windows вручную.
Скачивание и установка обновлений вручную
Если ошибки возникают при установке какого-то одного обновления, вы можете попробовать вручную скачать его из каталога центра обновления Майкрософт:
- Перейдите на страницу https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Home.aspx
- В поле поиска на странице введите номер обновления, отображаемый в центре обновлений в формате: KB1234567
- Посмотрите, есть ли в результатах поиска доступное для загрузки обновление с этим номером для вашей версии операционной системы. При наличии — скачайте и установите его.
Быстрая переустановка системы с исправлением системных файлов и параметров, но без удаления программ и данных
Если простые способы не помогают, вы можете выполнить быструю переустановку системы с исправлением всех системных файлов и параметров, при этом все ваши программы и данные останутся на месте. Способ подходит для Windows 11 и Windows 10:
- Если у вас имеется ISO-файл с образом текущей ОС, просто смонтируйте его в системе и запустите файл setup.exe, а затем пройдите все этапы установки.
- Если файла образа нет, то для Windows 11 — скачайте оригинальный ISO Windows 11, смонтируйте в системе и запустите файл setup.exe с него. Для Windows 10 — зайдите на страницу https://www.microsoft.com/ru-ru/software-download/windows10 и нажмите кнопку «Скачать средство сейчас». Запустите скачанную программу и на экране «Что вы хотите сделать?» нажмите «Обновить этот компьютер сейчас», далее пройдите все необходимые шаги для установки системы.
К сожалению, не все возможные ошибки обновления Windows можно решить вышеописанным способом (хотя и многие). Если способ вам не помог, то обратите внимание на следующие возможные варианты:
- Попробуйте использовать сторонние программы управления обновлениями Windows для их загрузки и установки.
- Если ранее для отключения обновлений вы использовали какую-то стороннюю программу, попробуйте с помощью неё же вновь включить их.
- Если вы использовали какие-то утилиты для отключения слежки Windows 10, они могли заблокировать доступ к серверам Майкрософт, например, в файле hosts и брандмауэре.
- При наличии сторонних антивирусов на компьютере, попробуйте отключить антивирус и проверить, решило ли это проблему.
- Попробуйте установить DNS 8.8.8.8 и 8.8.4.4 в параметры Интернет-соединения. О том как это сделать: Как изменить адрес DNS-сервера в Windows.
- Отсутствие свободного места (или малое его количество) на системном разделе жесткого диска или SSD также может приводить к ошибкам при скачивании и установке обновлений. Здесь может быть полезным: Как очистить диск C от ненужных файлов.
- Проверьте, запущены ли все необходимые службы (их список приводился ранее).
- Выполните поиск в Интернете по сообщаемому коду ошибки, чтобы узнать о возможных причинах появления ошибки.
- Выполните проверку и восстановление целостности системных файлов Windows. Подробные инструкции: для Windows 11 и для Windows 10.
- Использование VPN или прокси также может влиять на возможность скачивания и установки обновлений.
- Попробуйте выполнить чистую загрузку Windows. Если при чистой загрузке ошибки пропадают, можно сделать вывод, что ошибки вызваны каким-либо сторонним ПО на компьютере.
На самом деле, разных причин, по которым не ищутся, не загружаются и не устанавливаются обновления, может быть множество, но, по моему опыту, представленная информация сможет помочь в большинстве случаев.

This tutorial contains several methods to fix Windows Update Problems in Windows 7/8/8.1 & Server 2008/2012 OS. In many cases, even in fresh Windows installations, the Windows Update is not working as expected, or it stuck when checking for updates or it displays several errors whenever you try to search for the available updates.
In such cases your system may become slow or unresponsive, because the Windows Update service (svchost.exe) causes high CPU usage. The Windows Update service is an essential feature in all Windows versions, because it is needed to provide all the available important and optional updates needed for the proper Windows operation and security.
The Windows Update problems often occur on Windows 7 or Vista based computers and in most cases, the errors are caused without any obvious reason and without a permanent solution to fix them from Microsoft. For all these reasons, I decided to write this troubleshooting guide, with the most efficient methods to resolve Windows Update problems on Windows 8.1, 8, 7 & Server 2008 or Server 2012.
Problems-Symptoms that are solved with this guide:
Windows Update is checking for updates forever.
Windows Update stuck/freezes.
Windows Update cannot find new updates.
Windows Update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running.
Windows Update occurred an Unknown error: Code 8007000E
How to Solve Windows Update Issues on Windows 7/8/8.1 & Server 2008/2012
Important:
1. Before proceeding to apply the methods below, in order to troubleshoot Window Update problems, make sure that the Date and Time settings are correct on your system.
2. Try the following trick: Change the Windows Update settings from «Install updates automatically» to «Never check for updates (not recommended)» & restart your system, After restart set the update settings back to «Install updates automatically« and then check for updates. If this trick fails then set the Windows Update Settings to «Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them» and then check for updates again.
3. If you have performed a fresh Windows 7 or Server 2008 installation, install Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, before you continue.

Method 2. Install the KB3102810 (KB3102812) security Update.
I have seen many times, that Windows Update is checking for updates forever (stuck) without finding updates, even in fresh Windows 8, 7 or Vista installations. Thankfully, Microsoft has released a security update to resolve the «Installing and searching for updates is slow and CPU utilization is high» issue. To apply the fix:
Step 1. Install Internet Explorer 11. *
* Note: This step is applied only to a fresh Windows 7 or Windows 2008 installation. If Internet Explorer 11 is already installed on your system, then skip this step and continue to step 2 below.

4. After the installation, restart your computer.
Step 3. Delete the SoftwareDistribution folder.
1. Follow the steps in Method-1 and delete the «SoftwareDistribution» folder.
2. Restart your computer.
2. Navigate to Windows Update and check for updates. Then, let it run at-least half to one hour. If you ‘re lucky, Windows will find all available updates.
Method 3. Install the latest Update Rollup to fix Windows Update issues.
The Windows Update Rollups, in most cases can fix issues with Windows Update. But before installing the latest Windows update rollup, first change the way that Windows install updates to «Never check for updates (not recommended«. To do that:
1. Simultaneously press the Windows 
+ R keys to open run command box.
2. In run command box, type: wuapp.exe and press Enter.
3. Select Change settings on the left.
4. Set Never check for updates (not recommended).
6. Proceed and download the latest Windows Update rollup for your system, but don’t install it (yet).
July 2016 update rollup for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

September 2016 update rollup for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
September 2016 update rollup for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2
7. After the download, restart your computer.
8. After restart, then proceed and install the downloaded rollup.
9. Check for updates.
Method 4. Run the Windows Update Troubleshooter.
Microsoft offered the Windows Update Troubleshooter tool, in order to fix problems with Windows Update.
1. Navigate to Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Troubleshooting > Fix Problems with Windows Update.
2. Click Next and let Windows to try to fix the update problems.
3. When the repair is completed, restart you PC and check for updates again.
Method 5. FIX Corrupted System Files and Services (SFC).
The next method to solve Windows Update problems is to run the System File Checker (SFC) tool in order to fix Windows’ corrupted files and services. To do that:
1. Open an elevated command prompt:
- Right click at Windows start button
and select Command Prompt (Admin)
2. In the command window, type the following command and press Enter.
- SFC /SCANNOW
