KB947821 update [October 2014] appears suddenly in October 2015?

Hey there will:

I hope someone can help and answer my question.

I am running Windows 7 SP 1, 64 with IE 11 x and have kept all current Windows updates, since I bought my Dell laptop 4 years ago. Updates are still installed and I did have problems with updates failed, etc. I also keep the antivirus updated and scan 5 times a week.

Yesterday, the following appeared in my list of updates of 'Important '; KB947821 update [October 2014] system tool.

Why something dated a year ago suddenly appear as a 'new' update? More so that I keep all the updates, updated! It really gives me a bad feeling, and I'm afraid to install it before you know whether it is legitimate or not. Of course, I may very well just be paranoid, but would rather be safe than sorry!

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I hope you have a nice day!

Hi Dragonfire,

It is safe to install because it was offered hollow a Windows Update.

If you have any changes that may have evolved this update of your system, make it install it again, or it may have an update update. If you do not have to worry about this.

I hope this helps to solve the issue. If the problem persists, get back to us. We will be happy to help you.

  • Breaking change in the interaction of the COM. Calls to methods results in Acrobat crashing after DC October 2015 update.

    This seems to be an another breaking change introduced with the release of October 2015 DC Acrobat.

    COM interaction no longer works as it has been, it seems. For a very long time, it was possible to call the Acrobat application with other COM enabled languages such as VBA and Visual c# programs. I always get an object reference, but the methods trigger errors AccessViolationException.

    Very simple code example (c#) that no longer works (the method of GetNumAVDocs() worked last week):

    // Add "Acrobat" under References.
    using System;
    namespace ConsoleApplication1
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args) {
                // Get the current Acrobat instance.
                var app = new Acrobat.AcroApp();
                Console.WriteLine ( app.GetNumAVDocs());
            }
        }
    }
    
    

    The above code generates this error:

    System.AccessViolationException was not handled

    HResult =-2147467261

    Message = attempt to read or write protected memory. It is often an indication that other memory has been corrupted.

    Source = TestPdf

    StackTrace:

    at Acrobat.CAcroApp.GetNumAVDocs)

    [...]

    Calls to other methods such as the app. Show() result in the same error.

    I don't find any note on any type library more recent than the "Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library', which I use.

    What happens, and what should I do?

    I've not seen anything COM support being removed.

    Best regards

    Andreas

    After performing a repair installation of this error has not appeared once again, and users who reported this error confirmed also all first the AccessViolationException is is more triggered after that they did a repair installation too.

    So, if someone get the error in the original question: perform a REPAIR installation!

    Best regards

  • Blue screen appears suddenly without warning

    On my computer, the blue screen appears suddenly without apparent cause.
    don't know what happens to my laptop that it's the first time on my computer laptop .it happens before on my pc
    My XP pRO features I have a GIG of Ram please help any body

    In addition to what said Gerry, I would do this:

    Because the Microsoft Answers forum doesn't want any kind of information system when a new question is asked, we know almost nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    We know that you have XP Pro and 1 GB of RAM.  It's not enough information.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:


    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    What is your Internet browser and version?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Do you see that you think not you should see and when you see it?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    Your system seems to start OK and then crash or didn't he start not at all?
    Can you make the system crash when you want?  For example, you would say that there is no specific system activity that coincides with the accidents (like watching videos, playing games, etc.).

    The next time your system crashes, provide more information on what you see.

    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:
    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).
    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.
    If there is a name of the file listed in the STOP message, don't forget to include this information too.
    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.
    Now provide more information about your system and data against more recent accidents.
    Click Start, run and enter in the box:
    Msinfo32
    Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the information here.
    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.
    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.
    This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.
    Download BlueScreenView here:
    Unzip it and run it (BSV installs nothing) and let him complete the digitization of all your crash dump files.
    If you double-click on depressed, you will get information on it (including the field caused by the driver) and you should be able to spot the problem right away - especially if you see a model in landfills where Caused by field pilot is the same (beginning with this driver).
    BlueScreenView tries to find the right driver or module that caused the blue screen by looking inside the stack of the accident. However, be aware that the driver detection mechanism is not 100% reliable, and you should also look in the lower pane, that display all drivers/modules found in the stack.

    Sometimes BlueScreenView will involve XP files as being the cause of the accident (ntoskrl.exe, win32k.sys, hal.dll etc.) but they are probably not the real cause of the accident (BSV is doing the best he can).

    You will need to either pick up some example crashes over and look through them, or find somewhere the XP files are not the 'cause' or you can upload your files to your SkyDrive crash dump and someone with the windows debugging tools can help take a look at them more closely.

    Select (highlight) one or more of the most recent dump files by clicking on them and hold down the CTRL key to select multiple files.  Try to select only the most recent links that relate to your problem (perhaps five or six to start dump files).
    Click on file, save selected items and save information from the dumps to a text file on your desktop called BSOD.txt.

    Open BSOD.txt with a text editor Notepad, WordPad, etc.), select all (Ctrl-A), copy all the text in the Windows Clipboard (Ctrl-C) and paste the text to the Clipboard (Ctrl-V) back here in your next reply.

    Here's an example of report ASB to a single BSOD I initiated on purpose that indicates the cause of the accident as the pilot i8042prt.sys belonging to Microsoft Corporation:

    While you wait, please follow these steps:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

    It is sometimes easier just to download the memory dump files since your last breaks down on your SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).   So can someone who already has Windows debugging tools to look at things and understand what is happening.

    Dump memory of recent crashes and BSOD files are usually in this folder:

    c:\windows\minidump

    The files will be named something like this:

    Mini120311 - 01.dmp

    You need to download the latest... maybe 5-10 of the most recent crash dump files should be sufficient if you who have a lot.  If you do not have that much, send what you have.

    Getting started with SkyDrive:
    http://explore.live.com/SkyDrive-get-started

    Once you get your downloaded files and watch them on your SkyDrive, you need to 'share' your folders/files so that others can see them.

    Here is a link that tells you how to:
    http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-SkyDrive-change-access-permissions-FAQ

    Then click on the button "insert a link".  When you click on that, a window opens that contains the link to your SkyDrive files.

    Copy the contents of the box "copy this link to share:" in selecting the content of the link (it will be all highlighted), press Ctrl + C (copy) and then come back to the forum and in your next message, press Ctrl + V to paste the contents of the link back here.

    What you paste the return will look something like this link on my SkyDrive:

    My Photoshop 20141 cc does not show the update to 2014.2.  I have 2 computers and set to date and the other does not appear updated day.2.  They both use Windows 8.1.  I was online with the customer service earlier, and they were not able to answer yet.  I had to go to work for the customer service is to get back with me.  In the meantime, I try to see all the answers there.  I uninstalled the creative application of cloud earlier because I had problems when it is just hanging on the update for the desktop creative cloud application.  I deleted some files that the customer service representative said and reinstalled and I was able to reinstall the desktop CC application.  I tried to do the update through Photoshop and the application manager also said that he is up to date.  I checked the version just to make sure that there is no up-to-date, but it's 20141

    Why is - that this computer does not see the day.2 updated?

    Thank you

  • What happened today? (18.October.2015) Firefox has removed all add-ons "or" bring to install

    Hi all
    So, today, my father called me to help you, because he could not start Firefox.
    After awhile, he showed that Firefox has crashed and the previous session could not be retrieved.
    So we restarted Firefox and discovered, that all modules have been removed, then Firefox seems to work normally.
    I thought that it's a misfortuned event and I left, because Firefox seems to work normally after that.

    Later that night, I had a similar thing happens to me, I start Firefox, and it opens with the default view (I use modules that modify that) with 11 tabs, one for the page by default, and on the other, asking me if I want to install an add-on said or delete it. (all 10 modules were those that I installed the way back and there is no additional/unknown modules)

    So I wanted to ask if someone could tell me what could have happened. I could not find official news that something has gone wrong. Was it a coincidence that we both had a similar, if not the same strange problem?
    I'm using Firefox 40.0.3 and my dad uses Firefox 41.0.2 (current version), we both use different computers and we both use different routers.

    Thank you in advance!

    BIG EDIT:
    So apparently there was a big broad cyber attack on the 18th. October 2015, my father the other laptop (not the PC I mentioned) may not even load Windows more.
    I guess that this is not a specific question of Firefox more, so this thread can be closed.

  • I get repeated and unwanted advice to update my plugins, and yet I regularly update everything that appears on my notice of automatic update of the software.

    It gets really annoying. I have an old computer, but everything works fine for my needs. I used to get periodic requests of my automatic settings or microsoft or firefox or to the person, update this or that. I click and download the upgrade, and life has continued. Now I get repeated and unwanted reminders to update my flash player or my system of firefox, and I don't have to or want to, in my opinion. And I would like the opinion to stop already.

    Hello, according to your information system that you are using a mac is still based on the old ppc architecture. Unfortunately this or supported by apple, mozilla firefox and flash longer, even if you wanted to update, it is no longer possible. You can turn off reminders to update firefox in Preferences > advanced > update. I don't know in what context the plugin update notifications are appearing, so I can't give any indication on this...

    If you wish to continue using a webbrowser to update you can also go to the "tenfourfox", a 3rd party project based on firefox:

    Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors

  • CPT 9: Zoom Destination appears suddenly

    Hi all

    I use Captivate 9 version 9.0.1.320 on Windows 7.

    My question is maybe really stupid and sorry for that.

    I added a zoom area on a slide of my demo Simulation.

    I want the Zoom Destination to appear and gradually zoom in. For the moment, the Zoom Destination appears rather abruptly even thought, I played with the timings of the Source of Zoom and Zoom Destination.

    On top that the effects seem to be grayed out when trying to solve this problem by adding the effect floating about to Destination of Zoom .

    What I am doing wrong?

    Kind regards
    Iasmi

    Could upgrade you to version 9.0.2? I checked on your version, but there is a new patch released.

    Normally the zoom area object does not appear suddenly but takes time, that you can adjust in the synchronization properties.  Default installation appears at 0 seconds and zoom time = 1.5 seconds. Maybe you could post a screenshot of the chronology, is perhaps another point stopping somewhere? How did you test? Try to preview in the browser or HTML in the browser (F12 of F11) If you are on a normal life, not a sensitive project.

    Given that it is a simulation of demo, just a question: have you tried the video demo (cpvc) instead of the simulation of the demo? He has a much better way of zoom and pan with better quality than the subject of (old) Zoom in cptx projects.

    You can create a custom zoom effect, using the scale effects and motion together on an image of the area will be enlarged.
