Automatic update does not load

This time when I clicked on the update of the computer says that I was waiting to be installed, it wouldn't install.

He said that I have a flavor of different construction of windows live.

I have no idea what this means or what to do to get the installed updates as I am computer illiterate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

  • I loaded the new update for Firefox today and received a message from 'need to reboot to complete the installation'. However, even after restarting several times the update does not load and he always invites me to restart my computer.

    The update does not load, and I can't "remove" program to my computer and reload as the same (needs to restart to complete the installation) error message keeps appearing even after several reboots.

    Do a cleaning (re) install and delete the folder of the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox if possible.

    • Do not remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.

    Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

  • The service "wuauserv" (automatic updates) does not work correctly

    The service 'wuauserv' uses constantly between 88 and 95% of my CPU, slowing down my computer to the point that it is almost unusable, so I've been suspending or disabling the process 'wuauserv' every time I use my computer.

    In addition, Windows Update does not, if "wuauserv" is suspended or not.
    It prevents just check the latest updates and never stops to do that no matter how long wait.

    Well, I managed to solve the problem.

    I followed the instructions on this page: http://workingscripts.blogspot.com/2008/05/windows-update-high-cpu-usage-fix.html

    Immediately after that, Windows Update and the automatic updates service finally started working again. It has been almost two weeks since I fixed it and have not had a problem since.

    I didn't format the hard drive and do a clean install of Windows XP for this problem - I have never done this because it does not seem necessary.

    And I do not see how this relatively recent automatic updates problem never touched my other problem Installation of Internet Explorer years discussed in my other thread.

However, it is never. I still have to go to the Firefox Web page and download the new version of myself. I find this very frustrating, and it happened through a couple of updates to Mac OS x. I'm running Mavericks and just download Firefox 31.

    We see this often reported as past on Mac that update does not work properly, and it maintains the skirmish with the connection or otherwise is not updated.
    We advice you to download and install the full version in this case.

    Everything works well except that photoshop is 'impossible to extract the downloaded files' (U44M1l210). Re-upload does not work, uninstall and reinstall does not work.

All my other machines are running with photoshop fully updated (no problem downloading patch). Anyone got any ideas where I could download a separate copy of the patch?
