error code 80070426
27-Jan-08

Hi
Whenever I start up my laptop a pop up comes up and says that windows
updates could not be installed
and when I go into the Windows update window, and click update, it says
error found: code 80070426 -- and the 'get help' things, don't help.
I have read the other threads, and looked at the Cryptographic Services and
mine is on automatic and started...
Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

Make sure the Automatic Update Services has been started.
Make sure that BITS is started.

1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Properties.

3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click Properties.

Hi. I have the same error. I am running windows Vista on a new laptop from

I have ensured the crypto service is running ok and I have run the windows
genuine test as suggested in this post. It was claimed to be genuine. I
can't find anything about this error on MS website but it seems to be
stopping other updates from downloading.

Plesase can you let me know what else I can try?

0x80070426 - The service has not been started.

Suggest you read this and then post back with some relevant information:

Or, using Internet Explorer, do a scan of the system to see if malware
