Cannot install updates of security for xp #KB2698023 and #2656370
Cannot install updates for XP #KB2698023 and #KB2656370
Hi PeteBosch,
Welcome to the Microsoft community. According to the description of the problem, you are not able to install updates (KB2698023, KB2656370). Provide the following information:
· Did you do changes on the computer before the show?
· You are able to install other updates successfully?
· You get the error message?
· You use a third-party security software?
I suggest you follow these methods.
Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.
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 do not 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 during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx
Method 3: Follow the steps in the article.
How to reset the Windows Update components?
You can read this article for more information:
You cannot install some programs or updates
Note: You must take the backup of the data before performing any installation of windows.
I hope this helps. Let us know if you need more assistance.

Not able to install firefox updates
I downloaded the new firefox updates, but not able to install. I followed the steps.
1. check if no instance of firefox is running in the Task Manager
2 lunch Firefox as administrator.
3. click on Yes
4. it begins to install.
5 throws an error as several instance of firefox running.
6. tried this couple of times, but of no use. Every time error.
7. no created dumps.Do a clean install (re)-:
- Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- http://www.Mozilla.com/Firefox/all.html
- Uninstall your current version of Firefox and remove the Firefox program folder before installing this copy of the Firefox installer.
- Do not erase personal data if you uninstall the current version.
- 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.
You don't need to create a new profile, which is not necessary for this issue
Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program 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.
