my computer will not install the update of security for Windows XP (KB2481109)
Moderator before go Note: IE8.
-----my computer will not install the update of security for Windows XP (KB2481109) can you help me.
Hello
(a) don't you try to install the update manually?
(b) you get any error message?
(c) don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?
(d) what anti-virus software is installed on your computer?
I suggest you try the steps below and check if it helps
Method 1:
If you have installed a security software on the computer, then I suggest you to temporarily disable a software antivirus installed on the computer and check if the same problem occurs
Note: Please make sure that you activate the software of Antivirus\Firewall after the test to keep your computer protected.
Method 2:
I would say as you try to perform the clean boot and then try to install the update and check if it helps, here is the link:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353
Make sure that return you the computer to a normal startup mode once it's done.
Additional information: make reference in the link below:
