Automatically Fix Windows 7 Errors 0x80070646, 646, and 1606

An automated fix is available from Microsoft for issues generating error codes such as 0x80070646, 646, or 1606.

The software giant has confirmed a problem impacting the Windows Installer and affecting customers attempting to use either Windows Update or Microsoft Update.

“This update problem occurs when Windows Installer encounters an error. Error code 0x80070646 and error code 646 are generated by Windows Installer,” the company revealed.

“These generic errors indicate that Windows Installer encountered a problem. When you encounter the errors that are described [above], the problem may be caused by an incorrect value in the registry.”

According to the Redmond company, Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP users have all experienced and reported error codes such as those mentioned at the top of this article.

Fortunately enough, there’s an easy way to repair the issue. All that customers need is the Fix It solution designed to automatically deal with the source of the error messages.

The automated Fix It troubleshooter is available for download free of charge from Microsoft Support.
