KB2844285; KB2833940; KB2804577; KB2742596

I have a Dell DXP051 tower with Windows XP x 86 Media Center Edition Service Pack 5 (build 2600).  I have two browsers, Google Chrome and IE, which I pass between the two, but especially to use Chrome. I use ESmart 5.2 protection antivirus and Windows Defender. I get a failure of the update message and the error code for all four patches is Ox643.  I recently bought a laptop ASUS with Windows 8 and will begin to use it as my first time I transfer files from my old tower.  But I want to be sure that the tower is virus-free before making the transfer.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

It is a common problem with updates of .NET. Here are the steps I follow

First try this...

Download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework repair tool , then visit Windows Update and let it try to reinstall updates. Once it's done, scan again with Windows Update to ensure that they properly installed.

If this does not fix it try this...
Try to install the updates manually. Follow the links to the downloads.

KB2804577 - NDP20SP2-KB2804577 - x 86-.exe
KB2833940 - NDP20SP2-KB2833940 - x 86-.exe
KB2844285 - NDP20SP2-KB2844285-v2 - x 86-.exe

Once you have installed, visit Windows Update, let it scan and see if they are still revived.

If this is not yet it solves, we need to check if you don't have .NET 2.0 or have .NET 2.0 under .NET 3.5. .NET 3.5 installs 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5.

You can check for their presence in Add or remove programs or download .NET detector, a very small, stand-alone program that displays the versions installed in bold.

If you don't have .NET 2.0 can do this...

Uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0.
Reinstall .NET Framework 2.0
Visit Windows Update and let it install the rest of the 2.0 updates, including KB2833940 and KB2844285.

See if that makes the problem disappears.

If you have .NET 2.0 as part of a .NET 3.5 installation do that...

Open Add or remove programs, click on .NET 3.5 and choose repair. I didn't get around to check this fix actually .NET 2.0 also, but it's worth it. I do not know if it can also cancel updates already installed .NET. If so, they will reinstall when you perform a Windows update that is the next step after the repair.

If the repair does not fix it, will add and remove programs and uninstall the .NET Framework 3.5, 2.0, then 3.0. It must be done in this order.

Visit Windows Update, choose this first installation and custom scan...

Is not a high priority, it is under the optional software.

It must be installed by itself. Windows Update will not let you do otherwise.

When he did install (I forgot if she asks for a restart or what not), scan again and all updates for .NET 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 of the .NET .NET must appear. Choose to install.
A new analysis to ensure that they properly installed.

If all goes well, that will solve the problems you face.

Make sure you come back and let us know which method worked for you or if you still have problems, I have to run a cleaning tool.

    2 a Norton or McAfee application ALREADY installed on the computer?

    3. do you have a free trial Norton or a test of free McAfee [CHOOSE ONE ANSWER] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).

    4. open Add/Remove Programs and make sure that Show updates at the top is checked (and leave it checked); then select the name in the box sort by on the right. Now do scroll down & tell me if ALL the other updates following up-to-date are listed?

  • Update installed KB2844285 but continues to appear in updates

    Hello

    I have a Dell Vostro with Windows XP Pro installed on it. I recently installed an update KB2844285, apparently there was a difficulty that came out shortly after and it is installed as KB2844284v2. The problem is that it keeps appearing as an update of uninstalled even if it seems to be installed on my system?

    Can any ideas on how I fix?

    Thank you

    First try this...

    Download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework repair tool , then visit Windows Update and let it try to reinstall updates. Once it's done, scan again with Windows Update to ensure that they properly installed.

    The next thing to try is to download the updated v2 of the here and install it manually. See if the problem goes away. If not, I need to know if you don't have .NET 2.0 or have .NET 2.0 under .NET 3.5. .NET 3.5 installs 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5.

    You can check for their presence in Add or remove programs or download .NET detector, a very small, stand-alone program that displays the versions installed in bold.

    I'll tell you what to do if you still have problems when you answered with what you have installed.

  • NET Framework Update KB2804577 watch in my list of programs, but also continuous appears in Microsoft Update as downloaded and waiting to be installed.

    The update a few months ago... Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 (KB2804577), continues to appear in my list of installed updates. But according to updates from Microsoft, it is downloaded and ready to be installed. He also appeared in my sandbox with automatic updates as ready to be installed. He also continues to appear when I shut down my computer. Any number of times when I tried to leave my computer to install this update when I close down, by means of Microsoft Updates and automatic update. It will simply not go away! Since it puts in my list of programs updated, is it updated? If so, why he continues to show needing to be installed? I run Windows XP. IE8.

    Sorry, it took so long to answer. To answer your questions, no he didn't is not updated and that's why he continues to show. This is a common problem with updates of the .NET Framework.

    Follow these steps:

    Download it manually here. Click on download and choose NDP20SP2-KB2804577 - x 86 .exe. Install it and then visit Windows Update and check if it shows as a high priority. If it isn't there, you should no longer be disturbed by it.

    Then download the .NET Framework cleanup tool , unzip it, run it, and in the drop-down list box, select 2.0 and clean.
    Reinstall .NET Framework 2.0
    Visit Windows Update or Microsoft Update and let it install the rest of the 2.0 updates, including KB2804577.

    Harry,

    The following was extracted a thread earlier on the same exact topic.
    (It may be worth your while to find this previous thread get the complete picture).
    Step by step that has worked for others similarly vexed was:
    Website updates from Microsoft, locate and download the update file: NDP20SP2-KB2804577 - x 86 .exe in a new folder.
    Universal use - Extractor.exe by Jared bunking to extract the bits contained in the update file using the extract here option. There are probably many other options of software for extraction, but Universal Extractor is known to work with good results. Universal - Extractor.exe lie on filehippo.com
    In these pieces just extracted was file: NDP20SP2 - KB2804577.msp
    Option to use universal Extractor again NDP20SP2 - KB2804577.msp to extract a second level of bits to help extract here. (maybe type q to Quit in a pop-up cmd window when it has finished this step.)
    In these extra bits was the file: FL_System_Security_dll___X86.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8
    Rename: FL_System_Security_dll___X86.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8 to System.Security.dll (which is the version 2.0.50727.3646)
    Replace: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\System.Security.dll with this new version of the System.Security.dll
    (You can keep a copy of the old System.Security.dll somewhere, first, just in case)
    Delete all the remaining bits extracted and restart.
    No guarantees, but these are the steps that worked for me and others to eliminate the cycle without end of update for KB2804577 requests.
