in windows vista this guide assumes that we are working with a clean installation of windows vista
for demonstration purposes we will be using the 64-bit version
of windows vista to get started we will install the.net framework 4.6
all of the relevant links will be in a blog post linked in the video description
after net is installed this is the time to install any device drivers that are needed
it is highly recommended to start with the chipset drivers if any are available
next we need to stop the windows update service
this can be done by clicking on start typing in services.msc and pressing enter
scroll down the list to windows update right click on it and select stop
then we need to install an update for the windows update agent
which manages detecting downloading and installing windows updates
restart the pc after each update finishes
even if you are not prompted to restart the pc restart it anyway
now to install the root certificate updates this is essentially a list of trusted sources
and the update generally finishes very quickly
there are 10 more updates needed including internet explorer 9 starting with kb 320-5638
which is a security update for the microsoft graphics component from 2016.
followed by kb40125
which is a security update for the microsoft graphics component from 2017.
next we need to install kb4015380
and kb4019204
which are vulnerability patches
now for internet explorer nine there are two prerequisite updates kb971512
and kb2117
which need to be installed first followed by internet explorer 9 itself
then
eight kb401 seven one which is the cumulative security update for internet explorer nine
there are just two updates left
the servicing stack update from 2019 and the sha2 code signing support update
from here we need to run the wuc
tool it comes in a compressed file that you can extract to a new folder on the desktop
start by double clicking on install wuc when prompted press y
then run patch wuc
and choose option 1 when prompted
open windows update and click on change settings
we want to select check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them
and include recommended updates when downloading installing or notifying me about updates
let's run the check for updates some patience is needed
the check for updates may take some time to complete
there we have it 196 available updates that is how to repair the windows update
feature in windows vista thanks for stopping by see you next video
