• Windows Update does not recognize that Windows Vista SP2 is NOT installed.

  I have Windows Vista x 64 with SP1 and I defined updates on automatic.  However, it does recognize that the SP2 is not installed...  I'm afraid to try to install it manually after reading all the trouble with SP2 on this site.  Could you please tell me why the updates fails to recognize the SP2 is not installed and I have to do to solve it?  I'm not a master IT person, I just want my computer to be as up-to-date as possible.

  Thanks for the advice and any help I can get.

  Hi Alamogordo,

  Welcome to Microsoft Windows forums!

  Automatic updates would have tried to install sp2 and the installation was corrupt and failed.  So it will not try to reinstall. We have to uninstall sp2 to view update history and try to download and install manually.

  1. click on Start to type windows update in the start search box and click on enter

  2. click on view history of update and uninstall sp2 (kb948465)

  3. use the below given link to download sp2 (download to your desktop)

  4 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=891ab806-2431-4d00-afa3-99ff6f22448d & displaylang = in & displaylang = in

  Follow these methods before installing sp2

  Method 1

  Try to put your computer in clean boot mode and check if the problem persists. To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts. This article describes how to solve problems in Windows Vista or Windows 7 by performing a clean boot.

  Steps to put your computer in a clean boot:

  1. click on Start
  2. type msconfig in the Search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click continue.

  1. in the general tab, click Selective startup.
  2. under Selective startup, clear the Load Startup items check box.
  3. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click disable all.
  4. click on OK.
  5. When you are prompted, click restart.

  Method 2

  Run the system update tool

  System resources, such as file of data, even in the data memory and registry data, can develop inconsistencies during the lifecycle of the operating system. These contradictions may be caused by various hardware failures or can be caused by software problems. In some cases, these inconsistencies can affect the Windows Service store, and they can cause software updates not do not work. The system update tool attempts to resolve these inconsistencies.

  1. open the link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821 scroll through Microsoft Download Center where several links under this section.

  2. first link is for 32-bit operating system and the second is 64-bit.

  3. click on the appropriate link, then run it on your computer.

  4. Once completed, try to install sp2 through automatic updates

  5. in the case of a failure to install manually

  NOTE: TURN ON YOUR COMPUTER TO A NORMAL STARTUP AFTER TRYING THE STEPS ABOVE.

  Click Start, in the search box to start, type msconfig and press ENTER.
  Select Normal startup, and then press apply and OK

• My windows Vista (sp2) contains updates it refuses to install! Help, please.

  My windows Vista (sp2) contains updates it refuses to install!

  (1) Microsoft .NET Framework 4 on Windows (KB2468871)
  (2) update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (KB2533523)
  and
  (3) update for Microsoft Silverlight (KB2617986) this update of Silverlight includes the fixes described in KBs 2604930 and 2617986.
  When I tried to get help via the MS support, I was told that my install Silverlight could be the problem and uninstall all previous versions and install a new one.
  The current version on my machine is 3. something or other (Google Chrome me briefly earlier, but I can't seem to tell me yet again!) He also pointed out that the current version is 5. something or other.  However, I don't know--according to the functionality of uninstall in Control Panel - my version was installed on 21/01/2010 - about 7 months after I got the satellite (a Toshiba). It occurs to me - as it has been ongoing for awhile I fought first to make this thing work and then ignore it (neither of which, it seems, I am able of!)-update Windows is trying to apply can be updated too!
  According to the update of Windows, all three of these updates have downloaded - but I am not sure where...   When I tried to uninstall the old version of Silverlight, Windows Uninstall (via Control Panel) tells me that I need the Silverlight installation disc to go ahead. I've never had one! What can I do? Why these upgrades do not work? It has been for months!  Help, please.
