Cannot complete the update of security for Windows Vista (KB2961072)

I have windows vista and cannot complete the update security update for Windows Vista (KB2961072) KB2961072.  I also ran system update readiness tool. No luck.   Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

I had a very very long list of updates from several years ago, now I see only about 60.  OS says I have SP2 yet, but it does not look like it.  What happened to the hundreds of updates?  I have updates of the .net Framework and part of last week.

    original title: why my XP pro does not accept the following security update? Update security for Windows XP (KB2686509)

    I'm not really very good which is why I chose to use automatic updates. I recently got 'updates are ready for your computer' and when I start to download it stops pretty quickly and said:

    The following updates have not been installed.

    Update security for Windows XP (KB2686509)

    Is there a wat to fix this problem without needing to know the registrys etc.

    Thank you

    Mick

    See my post on the third page of this topic which contains detailed instructions for anyone with this problem. Go to the bottom of this page and click Next until you get to page three.

    Thanks for the update Mick. You should be able to double-click the file to open it in the command prompt. I did not write the script, so I can't tell you why you were unable to launch it by double clicking. Right click and choose to run it in command line will still work.

    @ Icom756pro I do not work for Microsoft, then you would be best suited to forward your complaint directly to them. I understand your frustration, however. I can only recommend that you try the script that I've linked to page 1 of this topic. If this does not resolve the problem then simply hide the update. You should not be prompted to install later.

    drusecord,
    First thing is to update your network drivers for your system.  Then see if after the update of safety, you have a problem.  If you do, I would do the following:

    Disk error checking

    System File Checker

    Then if there are updates that you already have, but are always available to consult this information:

  • Cannot install the update of security for XP (973768 KB)

    I have problems to install the KB 973768 for Windows XP security update.  Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

    Hello

    1. What is the exact error that you receive when you try to install the security update?

    2 are all the other updates installed successfully?

    3. who is the antivirus program installed on your computer?

    Follow the steps mentioned below.

    Method 1: This problem occurs especially if there are conflicts between the Windows security update and the application program on your computer, mainly the antivirus program.

    Temporarily disable the antivirus program or the security on your computer and try to install the update.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2:
    Step 1: If this does not help, put the computer in a clean boot state, and then run the update.  Follow the steps mentioned in the article mentioned below.
