An extreme number of updates before closing

Whenever I click on the Start button, there is a small yellow shield with an exclamation point in the Center (!). He said that I have updates installed, so far, nothing serious happened. It's just that it takes a long time to stop with the updates. It happened about 4 times already ranging from 5 to 26 updates. I think that this is not normal. Why are there so many updates installed? The test, I immediately shut down the computer and let it install updates day and then after that, I turned it on and waited, of course, there are more updates to install. I don't know if it's a sort of bug of virus but I know no more and faster it is resolved, I'll feel the better.

Windows wants to install updates at shutdown - this happens when the automatic updates downloaded updates, but not all updates you have requested or for automatic download.

I would say after reading your post, that of the updates fail to install and this is why there are so many every time you stop, they repeat.

You do not have to provide information such as what operating system you use, so I'll just post a general answer.

Check the Windows update log to see if there are error codes that indicate that updates are not installed etc.

How to view the log of update Windows: -.

Click Start and then click Run.
In the Open box, type: %windir%\windowsupdate.log
and then click OK.

Scroll down to the last entries find the error codes associated with the last attempt to download/install. If the appropriate copy and paste the codes of errors in this thread if someone may be able to help you. On the other hand, you can find the error code and other suggestions in the discussion group.

Also check the Windows file called Ko folder * .log (* = number of update KB896688 ie) and send the contents of the update has failed.
This may even provide clues as to why the update failed.

How to read the Windowsupdate.log file:

For Vista also check any warnings or critical Message:

Right click on computer

Select: Manage > event viewer > application logs and services > Microsoft > Windows > WindowsUpdateClient > operational

    Where can I find the version number of an ios update before installing?

    You can not. I would like to know as well. The current building is displayed in settings > general > all. When the phone offers you an update, it does not display the new version. One could assume that it is the latest available at that time, which at present is 13E237, but to my knowledge does not appear before the update.

    I'm a long-time user of FM.

    I am trying to open the files I could successfully open before I left work yesterday. I can open FM and open the books of FM. When I try to open an FM in a book, or an FM file not in a book, I get this message:

    Since his happens with all files, my suspicion is that your application data are damaged. Try this:

    1. close FrameMaker.
    2. Delete the following directory: C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\
    3. reopening of framemaker and see if the problem is reproducible.

  • Force the user to fill out an interface of the window before closing

    Hi all

    We already have an application written in Labwindows and we need to change to the new requirements. According to this condition, the user must provide more information before proceeding with the application. The idea is a popup window and force the user to include the information in this window. I have two questions here:

    -How can I prevent the user to close the second window before entering anything (something like the concept of modal window)? He should be able to access first window that after he clicks ok in the second window, out per second.

    -How to pass values between the two windows?

    Thank you

    Kanu

    Hi Kanu,

    These issues concern some fundamental concepts in CVI, you need to study or refresh.

    As you may know, the simpler you have a modal window in CVI is to use InstallPopup after loading the Panel: is the guarantee that the user cannot access other panels before closing the popup panel (Finally, there are other ways and a few caveats to my assertion, but let's first passing the simplest).

    When the user clicks OK, close or no matter what button place you on this Panel, you need to retrieve the value of the relevant controls with GetCtrlVal, validate them some way according to the nature of the control and your needs and only if it is valid, close the Panel with DiscardPanel (or RemovePopup if you need to reuse and don't want to reload).

    Passage of the second round table data is done via SetCtrlVal.

    As you can see, these are very general concepts, which may or may not apply to your application. In case you have doubts please add some details to your question.

  • No System Restore Point, then how to return to a system update before?

    Windows has completed an update and my task bar is back to an older version, changed color and left me with an old start button (grr!), more my Sidebar is now completely opaque, whereas previously it was translucent. For some reason, there is no system restore point to go back to a system update before, and I am not allowed to create a system for yesterday restore point, so, how do I fix these errors?  Obviously these defects are not affecting performance, but given that I'm a bit OCD, they cause some irritation. : O

    Thanks in advance for any help that is to come.

    You need not return to the update to fix that. With the right button of your wallpaper, just go to customize and choose any theme Aero.  Aero is the brand name for the DWM (Desktop Window Manager) technology that powers all the effects of glass and styles.
