Microsoft has released a tool for Windows 7 users which fixes an inconsistency found in Windows servicing store which may prevent the successful installation of future updates, service packs, and software.

This tool checks your computer for such inconsistencies and tries to resolve issues if found.

System resources, such as file data, registry data, and even in-memory data, can develop inconsistencies during the lifetime of the operating system. These inconsistencies might be caused by various hardware failures or might be caused by software issues. In some cases, these inconsistencies can affect the Windows servicing store, and they can cause software updates not to work. The System Update Readiness Tool tries to resolve these inconsistencies.

You can download and install this tool using following link:

Download Link (32-bit or x86)

Download Link (64-bit or x64)

After you download the System Update Readiness Tool, it runs a onetime scan for inconsistencies that might prevent future servicing operations. This scan typically takes less than 15 minutes to run. However, the tool might take significantly longer on some computers. The Windows Update progress bar is not updated during the scan, and progress seems to stop at 60% complete for some time. This behavior is expected. The scan is still running and you should not cancel the update.
