How to restore a significant update to Windows 7 I lost after a restart for an earlier version of the system restore point?

I am running Windows 7 64-bit Service Pack 1 on a desktop HP Pavilion Elite HPE-350 t. Recently, a malfunction of Windows at startup caused my father reboot the system to a previous system restore point. (He says it was one of several options at startup.) Everything seems to work fine now except that I seem to have lost a critical update Windows downloaded after the restore point, Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.256. Still, there are in my Windows update history and is listed as "installed successfully", but when I check my updates installed, it is absent. Also, when I try to search for updates installed, I get a message indicating that Windows is up-to-date. I can't uninstall the update and re - install because it is missing from my list of installed updates. So I guess that the re-start to a previous system restore point has put this important WIndows update in limbo. How can ensure me that this update is installed correctly and working properly?

Hello hakimbenzakis,

Absolutely, because based on that you are running the latest version of the Windows Update Agent and have the last update to it.

    Laptop became horribly slow online. Tests suggested corruption Firefox. R/R to the current version. Two mailboxes (everyone) are maintained as the last in use. All others are lost in the transition. Gmail and Yahoo do not recognize my new settings Firefox beyond two registered accounts. I have several accounts for various uses. I want to get back them, but there is no clear process for this. In addition, the same thing happened to all the saved passwords (planned) so I re-saved many of them.

I appreciate your solutions or, if necessary, of the suggestions-such as support useful contacts to Gmail and Yahoo. Thanks,-Ed

    Hello

    1. What is the security update article?
    2. are there any other security software installed on your computer?

    If you have any third-party security software installed on your computer, I suggest you to disable the security software and then check if it helps.

    Note : If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should 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

  • Windows7 with Windows XP to run earlier versions of the partitioning software

    There is no painless way to do it, especially on this model. It is possible but takes a lot of work and struggle. It might be a better option to use Anytime Upgrade in the Start Menu to go to 7 Pro or Ultimate. Then, you can download and use the free XP Mode that MS makes available.

    Change how Windows installs or notifies you of updates

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-how-Windows-installs-or-notifies-you-about-updates>

    If you select the download updates but let me choose... option, no update will install without your approval. Suppose an update will require a reboot and does not approve the installation of an update until & unless you are ready to restart.

    You can change the setting "notify only". Once you have done this, you will need to approve the updates are downloaded updates are installed commandeLorsque, which they are installed.

    I prefer "Notify only" setting.

    What are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

    While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other Microsoft software, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live [as well as Silverlight & Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC.

    Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx>

    If you disable Microsoft Update, your default update source is "reversed" update of Windows, but it does NOT neutralize automatic updates.

    How can I activate the automatic updates?

    Windows Update no longer works unless you have at least XP Service Pack 3.

    Right-click on 'My Computer' and then select 'Properties' to determine your level of service current pack.  If you are in SP1A or SP2, you can go directly to SP3.  If you do not have the service pack or have SP1, then you must install SP2 and SP3.  You can download a stand-alone Setup for SP2 and SP3 on the following links.  Ignore the verbage on 'professionals only '.  I you hereby dub a professional...

  • How stop my computer automatically update to Windows 8. 1

    Original title: update stop

    Separated from this thread.

    I do not agree.  last year when I've upgraded free to 8.1 he ruined my laptop.  Fortunately I have 1 week left on my warranty and HP fixed it.  I still have problems with it.  8.1 is trying to download itself, without my permission.  Give me 1 to 4 hour options but not disengage.  I'm trying to figure out how to turn off this option.  All of the suggestions.  HP says they can't rebuild my computer again.

    Sorry to hear you have a problem with the software in conflict with your update.  I would recommend when even updated. Windows 8.0 is three years old and has hundreds of known issues.  In addition, the support to the it will soon be the end and your warranty will be voided if you do not update.  You will also lose possibility to have security updates and you will be subject to vulnerabilities, risk for safety, and your information and your privacy will be at risk.  With the help of an archaic system intentionally is very ill-advised.

    If you want to continue to avoid the update, I can't in good conscience recommend it.

  • Update to Windows 7 on new computer out 15/02/2010 all access to the internet.

    eMachines PC Desktop ET1331G-05w with AMD Athlon II X 2 Dual-Core processor 250U & Windows 7 Home Premium

    Just bought this computer last week and everything works fine until the update of Windows 7. Now I can't connect to internet on my browser (Mozilla Firefox) or run other software that accesses the internet. I can ping and get an answer to www.yahoo.com. My computer says that it is connected.

    I'm running through a modem cable to a router. Another computer works through the router fine, so is not router problems or a cable.

    If I restore before the update, it works again. The problem is that it is forcing me to update again when I turned off the computer.
    I removed all virus protection software and it does not solve the problem. What is a firewall issue? Diagnostic software says it can't find a problem... I think he sees that I am connected.

    Help please?

  • The update free Windows 10 not resumed after the shutdown of the Pc down. Why?

    I am of the India, I get power outages or network problems normally. I started to download the windows 10 free update, it filled up to 10% (Total 2,936.3 MB in 10%). All of a sudden I faced the power failure and my PC was arrested. After a while, I have on my pc and the update is downloading 0% again. What is the solution of my problem? How take it back? How to continue downloading? If it's only my internet data will be wasted and I will never get free update to windows 10. Please solve my problem.

    https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/techbench

    This Web site allows you to download the file to install manually, but the problem is that you must fill it in 24 hours. If you have IDM, you can extend the time limit by a silly workaround, if you want I'll give you that too.

    Answer back for all the questions, hope that helps
