Disaster major WU updated

I just managed to recover from an update of the potentially disastrous windows update.

The update installed a storage driver invalid RAID, as well as the usual handful of patches Office 2007 and oopses for the week.

I started a shutdown of the system to allow some software the installation itself. (Just BTW, that the software was not the problem!). My WU settings are set to warn me about the updates, but DO NOT apply the updates until I approved them.

However, as soon as the session I disconnected, 10 updates were then applied. When I rebooted, my RAID driver was braindead, I couldn't navigate or open Explorer, and every time I tried to manually connect to WU, I get the error:
: The failure of execution of the server {26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}\5\::{36EEF7DB-88AD-4E81-AD49-0E313F0C35F8}
and nothing's happened yet. Fortunately, I diverted my manager clip for the volume of the temp drive dedicated, or that the error will not be lost like tears in the rain. :(

After that frantically restart in safe mode and cancellation of the last restore point, I managed to restart the system in a more stable configuration and manually since I reinstalled the CORRECT raid drivers (and of course, I've hidden this bloody crazy WU Update Manager Update, even though I'll be constantly and annoyingly reminded every time I try again updates but that's life with Windows Update I guess).

What is sizzling my sausage, is that the update itself applied WITHOUT MY PERMISSION and then broke this system so bad, I couldn't even cancel the update, let alone to browse or try and reverse the bugfest as WU himself was braindead.

Thus, not only does Windows Update failed to warn me in any way updates (and I now have all the notifications and tooltips turned on permanently, as well in the system tray and in the Update window itself, to stop this kind of butchery behind the scenes of a system that is so darn common to windows update) , but it has also installed the wrong update for my material!

If I had not been able to restart in safe mode, this message would have much more capital letters in it. And fat too. And probably a few italics. And my main screen would be covered with pin :)

So: for someone there trialing the build 7100 RC of W7 x 64, you should know that NEVER, in ANY CASE, shut down the system, you just need to choose restart and see if stopping rape behind the scenes of your configuration of system before you get a chance to stop him. (Here, I got to use the bold after all).

If there is no newspaper or the filesystem left over meat that may be useful, let me know, if I can find 'em I'll provide em.

FYI: after this last update/restore, I just found out that now my international keyboard was hard-reset to standard American keyboard. I don't even have the possibility to change the input settings, I had to go into the Control Panel, then reinstall the correct keyboard manually.

Again, I am amazed that this kind of fundamental problems have not been resolved, instead of surfacing in such a RC end months ago. That fills me with confidence on what gets eventually sent to manufacturers. The data are not information; Information is not knowledge; Knowledge is not wisdom.

It's Windows 7 RC

  • Not getting any major OS updates!

    I noticed for some time now that my mother (who also has the pre) has been doing the updates I've ever received. From the looks of him, I have not received the 1.2.0 update and more. I've been checking the screen update for some time, but it doesn't give me that updates for games. The screen simply says that my phone is updated, even if it is obviously not. I checked my phone to see if he can do the things these updates say it can (should) do, as the restart function, for example and don't have no chance.

    Another update, (although I never use) is the entry of credit card information by selecting Preferences & accounts in the menu of the application in the App Catalog. (Updated 1.2.0) This update I did not, nor after it.

    Can someone help me out here? I thought that maybe I could go to the site and download the updates here (and then put them in my phone via USB), but it seems that this cannot be done. I stop my phone (several times in a day) and have even pulled out the battery, just to see if maybe this will help, but nothing is done, and it becomes quite frustrating.

    Thanks in advance,

  • Major problem after update of the app: DeployException: result::failure-104 (incompatibility digest... something has changed.)

    Hello

    After you fix a problem with my signature keys ( http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Android-Runtime-Development/Signing-Keys-Mess/td-p/3022020) I managed to download my update of the app.

    Unfortunately there was something wrong, that users who attempt to update were a major problem: "update this game [...] and he could not install after he asked me to accept the location service [...] It closes right when you are asked to accept again for approval of location services. »

    Now, I was able to reproduce myself.

    Update of the application, the user is invited to accept the authorization of the Internet, and if they accept it or not, the strength of the app closes then. (I had added Android ACCESS_WIFI_STATE permission in the manifest, but the problem persists if I remove it)

    I tried to debug the problem and all that I can see is the LogCat shows this at the launch of the app 'day '.

    11-20 15:59:27.927: D/Install@Launch (7557275): incompatibility digest for com.irache.octagonp.gYABgELGe5sJN9mSCfgTnlCk3hw, something has changed.

    In addition, by updating an existing installation, I get this error message on BlackBerry deployment:

    result::failure-104
    com.qnx.bbt.deploy.Deploy$ DeployException: result::failure-104

    I compared the new and the old manifest, and all the relevant fields seem has not changed:-l' author of the Package, Package-author-Id, package name, package Description, Id of Package, Package-author-certificate-Hash.

    The application works correctly with a fresh install, and I can update without problem to other apps that have gone through similar changes very recently, in libraries, permissions...

    Could someone point me in the right direction?

    Thank you.

    The error-104 is the Android Runtime.  It indicates that the APK file that is trying the upgrade has been signed with a different key than the original.  It made no reference to any BlackBerry sign the file of the bar, but the certificate you use to sign the APK using ADT.  On an Android device, the same error occurs if you try to upgrade an APK that is signed with a different certificate.

    You can view the certificate that has been used on an APK file using a command like this:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin\jarsigner -verify -certs -verbose myApp.apk > output.txt
    
  • Aurora browser keeps trying to update with a version I already have. Are these real updates? Or y at - it a bug?

    I 31.0a2 Aurora (2014-05-27) it asks me to upgrade to the same version (31.0a2). She does regularly and the last of them was the 2014-05-28 19:30 EDT

    See [1003379/questions/1003379] why is Aurora still on the a2 version?

    Aurora Gets an update almost every day and it only changes the version number when the version of Firefox on the channel of update version gets a major version update (next will be 29.0.x to 30.0), so it's OK.

  • Firefox updates too often.

    I wonder what you guys play at, why the need to update so often?
    It's crazy. only 11 months ago, we were in version 3, we are now in version 7?
    What is going on? the software is not so different to justify a major version update.
    I am simply expressing my shock here how you have changed it, but a more serious problem. Here is the Add - ons. It seems to me that by doing a major version, you make it very difficult for managers of the add-on. I noticed that it becomes less useful add-ons for firefox and the good are get abandoned because they can't follow.
    don't you think you should slow down a notch?
    of course, I think that the development continues at a normal pace, but see if you can find a way to impliment updates important safety without messing up all the codes of the add-on? and without a major version update!
    We went from 6 to 7, and what has changed in terms of features? Honestly, I don't know because I haven't seen any real difference.

    Moderator locked due to the age of this thread

    Sorry, that you're frustrated with the new quick release schedule, many of us have similar feelings. The main part of the new annex is that releases are determined by now, vs the old feature-driven release date releases. If a feature is ready for release, it is included in a new version; If a feature requires more time to 'seep', it is deferred until he is ready - not more to postpone a date of release because some features need more development time.

    New features less and less changes by release version than in the past, with more frequent releases.

    A page like this should appear for each new version, after its installation. It's just a matter of reading on 'What's new in Firefox' to see which alter the new version http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/Firefox/7.0/ReleaseNotes/ .

    Regarding the module developers and the calendar of the week 6 for arrivals, the modules that are hosted here - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ - aka AMO - are made automatically compatible with each new version of Firefox, as long as they pass a compatibility check process and "testers" mark as 'compatible' with the extension Add - 0n Compatibility Reporter. Don't need a developer to do something if their extension was created successfully at first and meet the current standard for safety. 95% of the most popular modules are automatically 'moved '. In addition, with a week 6 Beta test period developers are assured that they will not have to redo all the patches, they may need to make their modules due to last minute changes in the Beta version, as happened in the past because of new features that have been modified at the "last minute" to try to put the release date.

    Night, Aurora and Firefox Beta testers are a large part of the "compatibility test" for modules that are hosted on AMO, so developers have less work to do if their add-on doesn't have all the patches and "testers" can point out specific problems to make it easier to find out what is a problem and help maybe the developer working on a "fix."

    What about self-hosted modules, it is a problem for add-on developers to understand to s. They need to rethink the gites accommodation vs using AMO to the distribution of their modules, or they need to find a different line of activity if they are unable to follow the program of quick release.

    IMO, Norton with their Firefox extensions (such as anti-phishing and secure password storage) for Firefox 3.0, 3.5, 3.6 and 4.o, were real slugs when it came to the new versions of Firefox, but from Firefox 6.0 and 7.0, they had their extensions updates update available to their customers in a few hours of shooting on the servers to upgrade to new versions of Mozilla's Firefox. I hate Norton for all the problems of their software caused for me over the past 25 years, but I must congratulate you on 'strengthening their game' with the new quick release schedule and responding to the needs of their Firefox using customers by providing a ' just in time ' updates. But they still need to work on their mode of delivery of these updates in a more automated method, other than the users who need to download and install a "patch" or manually run a live update.

    That all said, probably with Firefox 10 early next year, there will be a major change with the treatment of perceived the add-on compatibility Firefox. Currently the add-on must meet or exceed the version number of Firefox that is coded inside the add-on or the server of the AMO for the particular module, or the add-on is disabled automatically while the new version of Firefox is installed. The new way of handling it assumes that all modules are compatible - period. For not to sound too negative, but if (or when) a user has a problem because of incompatible code in one or more modules, it will fall on the shoulders of the user to understand what is causing their problem. I've seen too darn modules badly coded this last 9 years of use of this browser, causing all sorts of problems for me to think otherwise.

  • After an automatic update of the El Capitan, initialize to send diagnostic request. Is this real or a Trojan horse?

    Auto-installé update for El Cap 10.11.2 12/17 unattended via usual application store auto-updated. When I opened to the top of the standby mode the MacBook was initially white Virgin, then spinning dot gray then the screen asking permission to send diagnostics to Apple and the developers. All looked for real, but it could be a kind of Trojan horse?

    Whether it's a major OS update, such as 10.11.1 to 10.11.2, it is legitimate.

    It will look as if you set partially up the computer again. Should ask you to allow the diagnosis must be sent, and then show a computer small logo that says: "Setting your Mac upward" with a few small "data bars" on the screen. I don't know why Apple did allow you to send diagnostics and set up your mac after each update. I guess they have to ask anytime you install new software to avoid any legal problems.

  • Automatic update IPS

    I set up automatic update of the IPS-SSM-20 on Cisco.com and I have a question about the functioning of updates. Updates are related to the engine and the Signature only, is that correct?

    In the case where a new signature is posted on Cisco.com is the automatic update did the update of signature only?

    What engine SW in this case is simply ignored.

    OK, only the updates of the Signature and engine updates will be automatically downloaded from cisco.com.

    This is because the two types of updates can be applied to sensors without a reboot running.

    If an Inline sensor is configured for automatic ByPass, then the traffic will continue to flow through the sensor without supervision while the update takes place.

    Updates major, minor updates, Service Packs, and hotfixes are NOT automatically kept up-to-date of cisco.com.

    These updates require a restart for installation and will cause traffic to stop for a short period when applied. They should be applied for regular network time.

    (NOTE: you can configure your own server ftp/scp.) Manually download these updates and place on your server. Next, configure your sensors to check your own ftp/scp server for these types of updates. The automatic updates cisco.com and automatic updates of your own server can be configured on the same sensor.)

    Engine updates are released only a few times a year, while the signature updates are published several times a month (even several times a week, or even several per day during).

    The sensor connects to cisco.com and queries the server for the names of the latest engine and Signature updates.

    Then, it checks to see if these updates are newer than what is currently on the sensor.

    Is there is a new update of motor (higher level of E), and then it downloads and installs the new version of engine.

    If the update of motor on cisco.com is at the same level of E which is already on the sensor, then it checks the level of the last update of the Signature S.

    If the level of the most recent update of Signature S is higher than what is on the sensor, and then downloads and installs the new Signature Update.

    If level E and S of the sensor are the same that the most recent engine update and update of the Signature, the sensor is up to date. None of the files are downloaded, and the sensor waits just until next time of automatic update regular repeat the process.

  • Upgrading to ESX 3.5 Server update 5 & VC 2.5 update 6

    Hello

    This should be an easy one for someone. I'm a beginner of VMWare, who needs some advice regarding upgrades.

    Our facility is:

    host of x 2 - ESX 3.5 Update 4

    VirtualCenter 2.5 update 4 current running on the server physical (DB connect to local SQL exp license Mgr.)

    approximately 20 separate stored on SAN virtual computers

    The fiber connection between servers and SAN

    Looking to upgrade to the versions mentioned in the question. Here's what I think I do, can someone please confirm that I have my steps in order? Please correct me if wrong...

    Intend to do a place to upgrade, server downtime is not a problem, planned upgrade at the end of week.

    -Updated VirtualCenter

    -Shutdown VMs boot from CD to update5 (created from ISO download) and I guess here I can update guests individually

    -Then to update data warehouses SAN - how can I do this?

    -Then update virtual machines

    -Then update the VMware tools on the virtual machines

    -Updated models

    -Other stuff like Bishop Update upgrade an other plugins etc.

    Also, what are the importance of backups for an update like this, that is not a major version update (i.e. 2.x to 3.x)?

    Help is very appreciated!

    Hello

    I would like to do this way:

    1. Update Virtual Center Update 6 (make a full DB backup before update) - use MSSQL 2005 studio - works well

    2. updated - vmware update manager

    3. vMotion the VMS of off ESX1 to ESX2

    4. ESX1 upgrade (up to you, you can use the update - faster, you can use the command line, or start from ISO and perform the upgrade

    5. vMotion the VMS of off ESX2 to ESX1

    6. upgrade ESX2

    7. upgrade VMware Tools on VM - restart required after migration

    8. do not upgrade the virtual hardware, it will always be in version 4

    9. do not put VMFS data warehouses up-to-date

    About backup, the backup only what you need to do is to Virtual Center Database, it would be improved during the update of the VC server.

  • I'm getting the upgrade notice also each week, what happens?

    As mentioned in the question, I got to wondering what happened to Firefox. There are far too many upgrades for the past two months - this does not give me confidence in Firefox.

    There is a major version update every 6 weeks (except that Firefox 39 has been delayed) and between there can be updated to meet critical performance or security issues.

    In recent months, you can see that it pays often wait a few days after a major before the update version, where it causes widespread crashes that have been missed during beta testing, so you can jump directly to the output of fix crash. But the subsequent updates are usually because the new security concerns came to light that could not wait.

    11/08/2015 - version 40.0

    06/08/2015 - version 39.0.3 (critical security fix)
    02/07/2015 - version 39.0

    02/06/2015 - version 38.0.5 (10th birthday version)
    14/05/2015 - version 38.0.1 (fix crash of emergency)

  • Is it possible to group together addons?

    I have quite a few addons installed many of which are activated when you click on their icon in the bar of the addon. I am looking for a way to group the addons, so that they only take a single spots and are classified together with as addons. You can group bookmarks into folders and I'd like to find a way to do the same thing with my addons in the addon bar.

    The module bar is more a default feature in Firefox. Some add-on developers create modules to support a different add-on.

    Overall, the group code "buttons" in a folder on a toolbar (if it was even possible), [with the exception of the bookmarks bar], would be complex and could involve the user coding for each "button". I ran into that with this UserStyle - https://userstyles.org/styles/107442/fx29-menu-panel-horizontal-icons - I hit the limit of my knowledge with the Fx29 versions. Apparently some add-ons use new code Fx29 + versions that can handle, while others probably adapted from code from older versions of Firefox that don't 'translated' not well. With these modules each user does need to do some coding for some of their toolbar buttons; not something I want to get into.

    No, I'm not a developer Add on, but I 'saved' a few Add-ons that were abandoned after a major Firefox updated so I could continue to use them. So I have some knowledge of the different ways of coding a toolbar button; classic single function key - with a menu drop-marker - and with a context menu.

  • Vibe Note K4 - more useless phone on the market.

    Bought the K4 note on the first flash sale. It was my worst decision ever. Phone/Contact app fails to load all the data for several minutes at a time and crashes repeatedly. Seriously, I have a hard time, call and receive calls, which is the simplest of any phone. WhatsApp and other applications like Gmail base also often trolling and not auto-sync, although all the settings have been twisted to make it happen. WhatsApp messages arrive only when the application opens no not as a transmission notification that is very surprising as the auto start and auto-sync are enabled. When the basic as these features are faulty then this phone is nothing but useless for me. I ended up waiting several minutes for the application of the phone answer and view my contacts. The phone should regain consciousness after each 5 minutes call. It is worse than a 1000 Rs because basic phone that at least has basic functions it is well. Seriously considering selling the phone except a few major software update arrives. Need an urgent response to the problems mentioned above, Lenovo!
