• Apply all critical updates on a 'ESX Update 1' hosts = "update of ESX 2"?

  I applied 'Update 1-Complete' a few guests ESX, which worked well, but then noticed that many critical updates were waiting to apply.   With my Windows Service Pack / Update critical mentaility ceiling, I decided it was a good idea to apply all the critical updates, thinking that this leaves me in the 'day 1' so all available critical updates before the release of "Update 2".  However, after you apply all critical updates, build number seems to be "Update 2"?  I made sure the 2 update was not in the list of patches applied prior to reclamation.  So the question is, apply all the critical updates automatically asks you to a higher level of the major version.  In my case, lifting the crowd of ESX4 update 1 to ESX 4 Update 2?  I need clarification on this because I need to stay in 1 update constraints HCL.

  Thank you!

• Windows Vista Ultimate - Windows Explorer does not work after a critical update.

  I greeted Windows install a critical update.  Since then, I have a program that I run at startup that does not start.  I tried to restore to a point before the update, but Windows Explorer guard stop and restart, then I can't navigate to the backup and restore Vista application.  I can't access the backup and restore in Mode safe either.  I tried to launch the Vista installation disc, to try to repair Windows, but I have the same problem with Windows Explorer (stop and restart).  Is it possible to repair Windows Explorer? or is there a solution?

• return to factory settings after the critical update

  What happened after 3 different updates critical in the last 8 weeks or so... have my windows 7 64 bit set automatically download (and install) made critical.  When this happens at 03:00 as expected, the next day when I log on my desk (after the automatic restart) my office back to the original "out of the box" settings.  Wallpaper is changed, all my files are gone, including photos, videos, documents from Ms.  If I use I can recover my files system/system restore.

  Then, if I install the update again once, no problem.  Always afraid that the restoration will not work but well.

• No sound after installing critical updates - Windows 7

  Just bought a Toshiba P505D running Windows 7 on Sunday.  I then installed the 2007 Microsoft Office Suite.  Windows auto-intalled a lot of updates, Monday night and then after updates the sound has stopped working.  Toshiba has helped me solve the problem and it is not a hardware problem.  They had me then restore the system settings before updates of Windows and the sound is working again.  Now I'm nervous about the installation of the updates.  Anyone aware of this problem and how do I install the updates and keep functioning?  Thank you!

  Hi BoonieBoy,

  This could be a problem if one of the update is causing the problem. I suggest that you install update one by one to see which update is the culprit that is causing the problem.

  1. open Windows Update by clicking the Start button, all programsand then click Windows Update.

  2. click on the option to change the settings in the left navigation bar. You will now be on a screen where you will be able to set up how to download and install the updates on your Windows 7 computer

  3. Select the updates but let me choose whether to download and install them. When you have finished setting options that you want, press the OK button to save these settings. You will now be at the main screen of Windows Update.

  4. in the left pane, click check for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer.

  5. you can then download the updates one or both.

  6. now install a patch at a time and restart the computer after the installation of each update.

  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until you get all the updates you want on your PC.

  It is about what update is causing the problem. Provide the number of the update.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• Computer Windows XP detects not * all * critical updates or high priority

  Hello

  I am and have been, problems with a computer Windows XP here at work that does not detect critical updates either Windows Update or Microsoft Update.  In fact, the only update that is currently available to me is one for Silverlight.  I also checked that no update is currently hidden.  In addition, when checking "Add/Remove Programs" when you select the check box 'Show updates', that an update installed is listed: Security Update for Windows XP (KB923786).

  I should also mention that I don't get any errors whatsoever in the analysis of updates; simply, the updates are not listed as being available for me to install.  It's almost as if he thinks that I have already installed.

  This computer running Windows XP SP3 and Internet Explorer 6 installed (Internet Explorer 7 or 8 is not an update available) I have not tried to install IE7 manually although I can try soon (if you think it can solve my problem).

  Here's what I've tried:
  I tried to reinstall the Windows Update Agent using the command: windowsupdateagent30 - x 86 .exe /wuforce
  I tried to reset the Windows Update components using the tool 'Fix It' of this article (I did not all the steps manually): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

  This is the last release of my file WindowsUpdate.log last time I tried to search for updates:

• HP CP1525nw not working after Firmware "Critical update"

  Someone else on this forum has had this problem and did a system restore to work around.  I can't do it.

  In any case, the update of the Firmware did not allow the printer to a wired network.  Still, other computers can print to it, but the computer that attempted the update of the firmware cannot send anything to the printer.  What in the print queue is there and finally the status changes from "Printing" to "error - printing".  Same thing if it's a document or the last firmware update.  I deleted the deleted control panel printer and reinstalled the software.  HPPSdr.exe says that nothing is wrong.  The printer says it works.

  The only thing I can do is printed through a second computer, not good, because the other PC must be on and not asleep.

  HP CP1525nw, Windows 7 64 bit

  Try disabling your firewall and antivirus to see if it works. If it works, fine, USB, there is something blocking when connected wireless.

• can't go beyond logon after installing critical Microsoft updates, please help!

  G6-1331sa laptop. Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.

  After installing critical updates of microsoft for the first time after initial start-up, I couldn't go past the login screen. I turned off the laptop and rebooted in safe mode and restored to a save point. the laptop works now, but I'm worried about these essential updates that are still waiting to be installed (43 in total). Since this problem I used intsalled and hp support assistant recommended updates in the hope that this would better the case. the problems that I remember, when I checked the events in safe mode, surrounded mainly around updates NET framework 4.0, but there were a couple of other issues surrounding the other updates, but do not remember speciifics. If anyone can help me with this question, I would be extremely grateful!

  Hello

  Yes, Microsoft can be a royal pain @ times, but we love them so much, so what you need to do is choose the updates 2to3 or 4to5 @ a time, reboot the new laptop as needed. It's the safe way only to avoid a painful failure, OK? Try to update the elements who first of all the .net and then move these heavier MDPU later.

  After the "critical" update that is installed on my computer 12/23/11 my computer started running very slowly, he drove my Norton anti virus, blocking, I am unable to restore the system. any ideas?

  Hello

  1 update you installed recently? (Please mention the number of KB)

  2. which version of the Windows operating system is installed on your computer?

  3. what exactly happens when you try to perform the system restore?

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  Run the fixit from Microsoft Fixit article and if that helps.

  Fix Windows system on slow Windows performance issues:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/slow_windows_performance/

  Method 2:

  Start in safe mode and check if the same problem persists. If the problem not persists in safe mode, then turn on the computer in a clean boot state and check if that helps.

  Step 1:

  How to start in SafeMode in Windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Step 2:

  Put the computer in a clean boot state, and check if that helps.

  How to solve the problem by running the clean boot in Windows Vista and Windows 7:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: Once you have completed troubleshooting, perform the steps in the step 7: to reset the computer as usual.

  Method 3:

  Check the installation update and try to remove the updates that you installed recently and then try to remove it and check if it helps.

  Remove an update:

  And also ensure that there are no pending restart, if there are any pending restart, then restart the computer and check if that helps.

  Hope the information is useful.

• Dell Inspiron 1750, Windows 7: HL-DT-ST DVD +-RW GT10N not working after critical updates from MS

  I'm having a problem with my Player DVD - HL - DT - ST DVD +-RW GT10N.  I have a Dell Inspiron 1750, Windows 7.

  It was working fine, then after 3 critical updates from MS, it stopped reading/writing on the DVD player.  The only way I can access the DVD (read or write) is to restart.  A subsequent loading of different or even the same DVD finished with the issue of not being able to recognize the DVD.

  When I click on the properties of the DVD drive in Device Manager, it clocks.  However, after a reboot, the properties has worked well and said that the driver does not work properly.

  I got to the period before 1st update was installed and the DVD player worked as before.  However, Ms. downloaded the same (I assume) updated critical shortly after.  Low and behold, the DVD player does not work yet.

  The MS CD/DVD patch could not fix.

  I also tried UpperFilters/LowerFilters regedit deletions, but it is impossible to find these entries (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116 > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}).  Thank you Osprey4 for your help continues.

  I hope someone can help me.

  Thank you

  Open Device Manager, right-click on the component, and then select uninstall.

• Critical update and Aero

  After the critical update of last month, I lost my use of Aero Peek.  I have an eye problem and need.  Other people seem to have the same problem.  Why we can not have an update to fix this.  I can't go into the command prompt, because I can't use the magnifying glass to see what I'm doing.

  If you have updated your Windows then uninstall the update of platform for Windows 7 (KB2670838) and your problem should be solved.

  Before I updated my Windows this month I just checked if Microsoft still offer this update. This is in the optional list. I installed so I thought to manually upgrade to IE10 because he wasn't in the IE9 update list. So I did manually and after that check updates again and to my surprise this update has disappeared completely. I have an old PC as well, and after installing all the updates I still have no problems so far.

• I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion went well, I restarted the computer, I get a blue screen and the computer restarts

  I upgraded my card mother cpu ram and hard drive. I reinstalled windows xp home edition has got all of the updates. After 9 latest updates download and installtion was going well until I rebooted the computer and go to page window showing all the icons that I get a blue screen and the computer restarts its self and does not stop. How can this be corrected?

  Hi KevinRy,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  Unplug all external devices.

  Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

  Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

  1.	Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
  2.	Click the Advanced tab.
  3.	Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.
  4.	Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.
  5.	Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

  Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

  Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

  Kind regards
  Amal-Microsoft Support.

• HP CP1525n no longer work after "critical update" the driver.

  My CP1525n worked very well, but I received an email from HP advising me of a necessary 'critical Upgrade'.  I installed it, and now my PC (Windows 7 32-bit) is not communicating with the printer.  I also have an error message whenever I log on saying that ToolboxFX is not working properly.  My printer is one week out of warranty, if HP won't talk to me.  Can anyone help?

  Hello

  Thanks to all who offered suggestions for this problem.  I decided to go back to a restore point before installing the critical update of HPs, and now everything works fine again.  I agree with Bob, probably the best thing to do would be to uninstall and start over - but I hesitate to try providence - the printer now works fine and if it is not broke, why fix it?

  I didn't understand quite what the critical update was all about, as I'm not on a public network (was someone will hack in and stuff print on my printer when I wasn't looking?), but usually I like to keep drivers updated etc, so is tied.

  In any case, thanks to all

• Unable to download all the site of Wild Tangent games after a Windows Update

  I can no longer download all Wild Tangent games after the last update of Windows.  I clicked to restore to an earlier point, which worked for a few days.  Now it no longer works again.  Wild Tangent has said that it is a Windows security problem, probably a sertting of firewall.  I would like to know if there is a way to list the Wild Tangent as a site course, or how I can fix my firewall.  Thank you.

  Make sure that the download directory is not "made"read only."   Also check for security installation directory.

• Win 7 64 bit USB ports is no longer conscious of external drives after "Critical update"

  Just after that a windows update "Critical update" earlier this week, my PC stopped recognizing all drives connected to a USB port.  It no longer recognizes the external USB HARD disk and also it does not recognize the USB SD card reader.  This applies to both built-in PCI bus USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports ports.

  The USB ports still acknowledge the keyboards, mice, cameras and other things, not storage.  If the same SD card is charged inside the camera, this card is visible when the USB cable is connected to the camera, but if I remove the SD card and load it with a USB card reader, it fails.

  There are other symptoms such as slow boot times of VERY and VERY slowly closing times.    Any help appreciated.

  Windows 7 Pro 64 bit Intel X 33 chipset,

  Update: this could have turned out to be that something damaged on the external hard drive that has affected only Windows 7.  This drive has been plugged in, not only was unreadable, it made the other disks unreadable USB on the Windows 7 machine. I plugged the drive in question on a XP machine and it worked fine.

  Some time later, I plugged it Pluggable software component back to the Win7 machine and it pops up a message (the first time I saw it) that said, the drive was corrupt and had to be scanned to find errors. I clicked on OK and let it scan.  After the scan it reported "no problem not found on the device or disc. It is ready for use. "And as a result of this analysis, mysteriously, it started working again!

  So now, the problem disappeared. I hope he doesn't, because I'm not really sure what fixed it.
