[FIXED] Windows Update error code 80072F78

Hello our reader!
have you get some this error when windows update launch?


its really ugly right?
ok...firstly i have to say this error caused by your Antivirus program...
on other word, ESET product example: Nod32 or Smart Security
you may shocked right?
i'm Eset user too...and i already tested this method...its worked!
ok...here i show you...

1. Open your ESET product (mine ESET 5 beta)

You will see something like this

2. Now click on "SETUP", and select "Enter advanced setup..."


3. Expand Web and email -> Web access protection -> HTTP, HTTPS -> Active mode
on the right box, scroll down and check C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe
now click OK

4. Open your Windows Update, click Try Again or Install Update or Check Update

Here the result:

Windows able to install update

Successfully updated!

Now your problem is fixed,
you can freely restart your computer.

  • I'm not say that you should switch to other Antivirus...this problem can solved if you know how to fix it :)
  • I really love ESET SMART SECURITY because the program highly detected rate and very light!

Special thanks to this thread
