Latest version of Windows update breaks Messenger
I noticed this problem a week ago. After that the automatic windows update, Live Messenger gives a fatal startup error. The error message reads "Windows Live Messenger has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. »
If I restore my computer to before the restore point "software distribution service 3.0", it works perfectly. I also disabled the automatic updates in the Control Panel, still today, I found exactly the same problem and a system restore point at 2:21 in the morning, labeled "software distribution service 3.0.
I have to say that I'm terribly disappointed that a windows update would break a windows product, and moreover that the deactivation of the automatic control panel updates does not, disable, auto updates and allows this process continue to run unwanted on my PC.
It is the first line of the error report.
AppName: msnmsgr.exe AppVer: 14.0.8089.726 AppStamp:4a6ce533
ModName: wldcore.dll ModVer: 14.0.8089.726 ModStamp:4a6ce514
fDebug: 0 Offset: 00002ee5
I have not installed at all new program last month, so I doubt that there is no conflict, and restore to the point before the update immediately fixing it seems to point to the update as being the culprit.

HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation option" and formatting the hard drive section of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7

After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

Latest version of windows update problem?
Since the window update earlier this week I'm able to use my touch pad to select and copy from Internet explorer or Microsoft Word. Also can not restore to a point before the updates to ensure that the updates were the cause, but the time leads me to believe that this is the question. Dell laptop
Looks like I found a solution. I checked on the Dell site and found an update of the bios and installed. The copy function now works again. I was on the bios 16 and was a bios update which was 12/2009 17. Thanks again for your help.

Why Acrobat Connect Pro years take to start after the latest version of Windows update?
I've just updated Microsoft windows 7 (and I don't want to lose the programs I and microsoft does not guarantee that they will be stick around including xp mode by going to windows 10 and it is part of the problem) and my college of adobe connect program charges years now. Do we know why? I spoke to the College, and they plan to get rid of adobe connect. It's really frustrating.
I like also all pop ups trying to prevent me from setting this up. Why can't work without all the stuff extra IS NOT nneded?
Hi John,.
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check the status.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 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.
Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.
Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

You have McAfee? McAfee has been updated at the same time as the last batch of updates from Windows 7 and this is the cause of problems of internet connection for most, if not all, users of McAfee.
See the communication from this "criticism" - McAfee
You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary. There are corresponding communications for their enterprise products.
I had to run the McAfee removal of Development tool a few times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction.

What is the latest version of Windows Media Player compatible with WM 6.5?
I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 running Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone. What is the latest version of Windows Media Player, I can use?
You can not.
Your question was not entirely clear.
WMP is for XP, not the HTC device. If you have Windows mobile on your HTC, then it will be a Media Player built into it. If you have the latest version, AFAIK you update from 6.5 to what is the latest version of Windows Mobile. If its 6.5, then you already have the latest version.

Windows Update breaks black Lenovo 2 sensors, inevitable system upgrade
Hello world
Played with the 2 black of Lenovo for a few days now and I live the boring problems.
I did about 3 x cooling system so far and on my 4th I'm typing this...
I don't know the exact origin of the problem, but I don't know that one of the windows update break sensors causing its functioning and the breakdown of some features.
- Accelorometer works at startup, disable and re-enable the sensor in the Device Manager.
- Try using the search or the PC in Metro UI settings feature freezes the tablet.
With each update, I made sure that no update driver is selected, but that doesn't seem to help.
And the most annoying part is refreshing that the tablet takes forever... (2-3 h)
If anyone has the same problem or an overview of what is the cause? Please share your knowledge
You have a sd card? If so remove and see if it works better?

There is not "later" version of XP - XP there and there is that Service Packs added to it.
