Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 installation failure ErrorCode 0

Discussion in 'Windows Update' started by HeavyMetal747, Oct 20, 2009.

  1. Hi,

    The Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 will not install from Microsoft
    Updates. When I click on the reason for falilure it says "Installation
    Failure Error Code: 0x66A". How do I fix this so I can install the service
    pack?

    Thanks

    The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service
    because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade
    patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the
    program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have
    the correct upgrade patch.
    </cmd_output>
