    Hello
    KB2572073 security update is to repeatedly download and installation. When I check on Windows Update reports installed successfully. How can I fix it?

    Hello
    Thanks a lot for your answer. I followed the actions in the link provided, but the problem persisted. To fix it I had to remove the .NET Framework and then reinstall it by using the following procedure. That solved my problem.

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Step 1: Remove the .NET Framework using the removal tool

    ================================

    1. download the tool from the following link:

    2. save the zip (dotnetfx_cleanup_tool.zip) file from the link above on the local desktop and extract it.

    3. double-click on cleanup_tool.exe to run the tool.

    4. follow the instructions given.

    In the "cleaning product:", please select ".NET Framework - all versions.

    5. click on 'clearing '.

    6. restart the computer.

    Note: Once we have removed the .NET Framework, some applications that have need of .NET Framework runtime database could lose their functions. It's just a temporary problem. The function will return to normal after the reinstallation of .NET Framework.

  • Repeated supply and installation of a security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 for x 64-based systems (KB954430)... WINDOWS 7

    OK brand new windows 7 home premium desktop did yesterday, all the running back usual disks etc. and update, but I was offered and installed the update above about 10 times. How can I fix this, have tried searching and I find Vista responds ok but not for Windows 7.

    Quick update, the fix above certainly did not in the present case even if this has worked for me in the past on other machines.

    Im going to say I think I cured problem for now in any case.

    How I did it is I went into microsoft downloads and downloaded the update kb954430 and recorded on my machine. I then ran this update and instead of installing it, I used the option to remove the update, which came in the installer. Reebooted machine then let windows automatically download and install the update even I had just removed and it seems to have installed correctly this time I get is more asked to install it again.

    Thanks for the help Supreth, well aware that this is a common problem and I didn't know the fix for XP and vista, but guess I was just not the confidence to try it in windows 7 on my nice new shiny machine. Although your method did not work for me this time the link you provided of course lead me on the correct path to a better understanding of why this has happened. GREATLY APPRECIATED

    In one of your previous answers, you told us that an application of Norton and a McAfee application have been installed at some point in the past (i.e. before you installed Avast). You mentioned also as a test of free Norton is preinstalled on the computer when you bought it.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

    Note: What follows assumes that

    -The Norton free trial period had NOT expired at the time where you replace it with another application; AND that

    -Your Norton OR McAfee paid-subscriptions expired never (i.e. before you installed Avast). AND that

    -You have never done a repair installation or a clean installation of Windows.

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    1B. download the tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. double-click on the file that you saved in # 1 a above, to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    3. double-click the file that you saved in # 1 b above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then reboot again.

    4. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

    5. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run who fix it in methods AGGRESSIVE then by DEFAULT. [1]

    6 restart again, and then run a manual check of updates & see if KB2506212 and/or KB2446704 to install.

  • Windows Update repeatedly offers the KB2565063 update and I can not install

    Repeatedly offered Windows Update is (KB2565063), but when I try to install it continues for long periods of time with no progression of the installation made.

    As I try to download the "vcredist_x86.exe" file is what is happening in the install window:

    Install window:
    'Security check of the file' progress is progressing at a normal speed and finishes very quickly his task. Progress bar goes green in less than 15 sec.
    Lower than:
    On the Installation progress bar: it seems to work (small circle is moving to the right), but he never makes any progress installation file. I have let it run up to 30 min with no Visual progression.
    The file that is trying to be loaded at the bottom is: "msp_KB2565063"... the KB2565063 is the update file in the original post, I had trouble downloading.

  • Repeatedly offered the same update

    Windows Update keeps trying to install the same update (KB981852) again and again. Whenever update is a new update, downloads and installs it. He says that the update has been successfully installed. When the dialog box is closed, a new dialog box appears and wants to download the same update. This is repeated 10 times and I can't seem to stop trying to install this update.

    First of all, it's a little strange that answer appears PA bear prior to a post submitted more than 12 hours. before him. Also, it is strange that I never was warned of his assignment until I was informed that it was marked as a response, so I never had the opportunity to react before it has been marked as an answer.

    My bad for not specifying not what operating system it has produced, but a quick search on Google for the update number of, whowas in my post, would have revealed that this is a update of security for Windows XP (mine is 32-bit). The machine is the free version of Comcast of Norton Security Suite installed and is therefore always up to date. Norton manages spyware blocking (although the Defender is much less than it is in any case). And of course, Norton provides the firewall (although I had to manually turn off the Windows Firewall three times after installing Norton; it was before installing the update above). It was a totally clean, after being shaped and test of surface, installed Windows XP Home OEM from an installation disc (I am a member of the Microsoft Partner Network). There are three other machines Windows XP here (2 with Pro) and the other with the House, all the 32 bits that had recently reinstalled OS which has not experienced this problem when the same update has been installed on them and all had Comcast of Norton installed before the offered update version. It's news to me that there is a toll free number to get free assistance for the security updates, it seems to be a well-kept secret, that I can find no mention of this inyour research support, on or off the Microsoft Web site.

    Yet, none of the foregoing is an answer to my question, as seems to be preferred on the Microsoft Forums, unless it is summarily assumed that the applicant is a fool, then all the possible solutionsobvious are specified, even when the applicant stated that he had tried these thingsbefore asking for help.

    In all cases, the problem seems to have been resolved by simply saying to Windows Update to stop advising me of the update.
