• The update for the video player is for Windows, I have a Mac, is an another scheduled update?

  I received two notifications that the video player for Firefox should be updated. When I try to install the update, I get the message that it cannot do so because it is impossible to run Windows applications on a Mac. An update is planned for Macs? Also, if an update is only for Windows, is there a way I can indicate that I don't need, so I continue to receive messages?

  You have malicious software! (Yes, Macs can get malware).

  Hello

  After a series of windows updates were installed today (July 15) on my Mini click the touch screen no longer works. Uninstall the updates, brought the touch screen to life. If anyone has had this problem and, if so, find out what update caused the problem?

  Mac.: I just fixed it by restarting the Tablet two times.

• Regarding windows update...

  Can someone tell me why windows will update your computer without your permission. I was in the middle of play the Sims 3... were not spared. Set Windows to update by itself. I lost my whole game I had played for 3 hours. Its supposed to prompt you, but if your game a game how can you see the prompt? It's not fair. I'm sure there are a few settings, I don't know maybe... but that doesn't help me now. It should never restart on its own... Well I guess I should have bought a mac. Your right windows its my fault. Should just have you thrown out the window and buy a mac. Haha...

  Can someone tell me why windows will update your computer without your permission.

  Because by default Windows set up should automatically search, download and install the updates at a specific time. The reasoning behind this behavior is that it allows to protect the systems that users would never install updates without it and therefore, benefits the entire internet community by limiting the number of vulnerabilities that can exploit the poor guyz .
  One may legitimately ask, how this practice worked in real life as opposed to the theory?
  It will surprise some people to discover that he shot on the number of systems infected as opposed to not having the update automatically as default setting .
  And, when the critical security updates are installed while the files that they update are in use, the system is still vulnerable to the exploit, it covers and in a State known as a mixed state . Of that mixed state can lead to serious instability.

  Windows Update tried to inform you of a pending restart but you were playing a game and can not see the prompt. You must set the update notification before the download and installation of updates for more "control", as the MS likes to say.
  All editions of Windows Update settings can be changed via the Windows Update icon in Control Panel.
  In XP, update can be set to notify before download and prior notice to the installation of the updates.
  In Vista/Win7, there is only one prior notification for the download and installation of updates.

  If you think that Macs are more easy to use update, then suggest you check the results of a quick search of the forum of Snow Leopard

• Windows updates has shown installation but when checked 0kb installed and the icon was missing from the tray (Win XP sp3 IE6)

  original title: another missing Windows updates missing yellow icon (Win XP sp3 IE6)
   
  I'm having the same problem also.

  Windows XP sp3 with IE6. All updates applied excluding this last batch with the numbers you mention, except for two of them.

  I can tell you that, just as usual, the yellow icon was present when downloading these updates were. Then he disappeared after that that they have been fully downloaded.

  Interestingly, I went to Microsoft Update to check to see the new updates and found downloaded after checked for updates, BUT when I dropped down the details for them they all showed 0 KB!

  Here are the updates, that he sent to me (last

  and the MSE customer update kb 2544035.

  The only one who showed no 0Ko was a MS Security Essentials client update number kb2544035 with 7kb.

  I tested two updates from win xp to see if they would be set up and they did, here are the numbers... .kb8900380 and kb2567680

  kb8900380 is the edition of August 2011 of malware removal tool.

  I tested and found that it was actually installed and worked.

  Just one thing. I noticed on restart every time the yellow icon appears in the status bar but only flashes for a second or two, then

  disappears once more. I tried to quickly click on it but it does not.

  I then checked the taskbar customize notification and I found that it presents itself as an element of the past and said that it is associated with the download of updates.

  Syed N:

  Thanks for your suggestions.
  I wanted to post back to update everyone on my current situation.
  I was going to ask your manual correction of the WSUS... when I got home tonight. However, at the start of my PC tonight the Automatic Update icon (yellow) was actually download updates once more and things work like they are supposed to. After the download, the icon shows the balloon which informs you that you have updates available and when I clicked on the icon it was admissible and that it took me to the menu as usual at the.
  Then, I tested several updates in the menu of the AU and downloaded. They were installed properly and allow them left unchecked the icon stay in the tray as usual.
  I don't know what happened, but things are now correct.
  You have an overview on why things "fixed", I would be interested to know the why of it. !!!!!!! It is interesting to me.
  Maybe the MS is really followed this site and or you guys relay these flaws in MS for the correction.
  Thanks for your suggestions, I've forgotten to be able to reset the update components!
  Finally, Syed:
  If you can relay the suggestion to MS. I always liked Windows and like the superior ability I have to control aspects of it unlike OSX (Apple MAC) however the link low is a win (including 7) WIndows update mechanism. I was lucky for me and my family, I'm enough common sense to know how to apply updates to avoid the problems of the operating system, but not everyone has this education and too many times same own OS Win with very little in option programs/software and hardware drivers downloaded) have more up-to-date flaws then seems reasonable.
  I would like to see MS improve WSUS and also more importantly still provide and ENCOURAGE users to take and the advantage of teaching material that MS can offer users to consumers.
  PA bear:
  Also thank you for your suggestions. I didn't know that MSE is a culprit in this issue, but you never know.

• Toshiba laptop problem after Gaming/Windows Update.__No solution on the web.

  Hello! I use a Toshiba laptop.

  I was playing a game and windows update popped up!

  He has not yet finished, and my computer turns off. It was late in the night, so I decided to start the computer the next day.

  He will appear with the options
  'Safe Mode '.
  "Safe mode with network.
  "Safe mode with command prompt.
  "Last good known Configuration".
  "Start Windows normally".

  Whichever one I choose Windows XP logo appears, then crashes immediately, restart.

  So I tried to use "do not restart in case of shutdown"

  And the blue screen appears

  "stop: 0x0000007e (0x905c49b8, 0xf792b2b4, 0 x 80000003, 0xf792afb0).

  What is this error? I can't enter safe mode by the way!

  Thanks for your help.

  It's http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330182

  Advanced Troubleshooting use the following methods in the order in which they are presented. Method 1: Make sure that you have enough hard drive firstly space, make sure you have enough hard disk space. The Stop error message can be caused by insufficient disk space.

  If you use safe mode or the Recovery Console to start the computer, delete any unnecessary temporary files, Internet cache files, backup files of stored-program files that contain fragments of disk analysis files (.chk files). Alternatively, you can install Windows XP on another hard drive that has more free space.

  If you cannot start the computer, go to the next method to update the BIOS of the computer.

  For more information on safe mode or the Recovery Console click on the numbers below to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  315222 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222/) a description of the options to start Windows XP in Safe Mode
  314058 (http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314058/fr/) Description of the Windows XP Recovery Console

  Method 2: Update the computer BIOS if freeing space on your hard drive has not solved the problem, the BIOS might have to be updated. Use hardware and software vendor contact information items that are listed in the "Références" section to contact the computer manufacturer to obtain the most recent update of the BIOS.

  Note When you update the BIOS, you may have to disable the memory the BIOS options, such as caching or shadowing him, temporarily. Method 3: Disable or update device drivers if you have successfully updated the BIOS and the problem persists, on the computer video card drivers may have to be updated or disabled. Follow these steps to troubleshoot video card drivers:

  1. If a driver is listed by name in the Stop error message, disable or remove that driver.
     • If the error occurs during the startup sequence and the system partition is using the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver.
     • If the driver is used as part of the procedure of starting the system in safe mode, you must use the Recovery Console to start the computer.
  2. If the Stop error message does not indicate a specific driver, update the video card for the latest drivers.
  3. Disable or remove drivers or services that you recently added.
  4. Check the list of Microsoft hardware compatibility (HCL) to determine if the computer's PCI devices are compatible with Windows XP. For more information about the HCL, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:
     http://www.Microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx (http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx)

  Method 4: Remove unsigned drivers if you have updated the video card drivers and the problem persists, or if you cannot start Windows in safe mode, the problem may be caused by a different driver, not signed. Remove all drivers that are not digitally signed by Microsoft. For more information on how to do this, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  316434 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434/) how to perform advanced clean boot troubleshooting in Windows XP

  Method 5: Remove all third-party drivers, you may be unable to determine which third-party driver causes the error. If removing unsigned drivers does not resolve the problem, try to move all third-party driver to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder files to another location. Follow these steps to move the third-party driver files:

  1. Use the Recovery Console to start the computer, or start the computer from a different installation of Windows if you have performed a parallel Windows installation.
  2. Create a temporary folder for the driver files. For example, you can create a c:\DriverTemp .
  3. Move all files that do not have a creation date for Windows XP of the 13/08/2001 to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder to the temporary folder you created in step 2.

     Warning If the computer relies on pilots third-party IDE or SCSI controller for correct operation, you must identify those driver files and leave them in the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder.

  4. Restart the computer.
  5. Continue Windows Setup. You can add the files of the driver to the computer, one at a time to identify the faulty driver.

  Method 6: Remove third-party remote control services if you still have the problem after you use the previous methods and the Stop error message contains the name of the file Win32k.sys instead of a file name of the driver, the problem may be caused by a control program to third distance. To remove the service, use the Recovery Console to start the computer, and then delete the file of control service third-party remote.

• Windows Update stays in forever fixed verification of updates - see the messages below

  This started happening a few days installing updates some was interrupted by a power failure.  When the computer has been restarted, updates has not started again.

  Now, it checks only the updates for hours. I let it run for about 4 hours now.  I tried everything I have seen posted here.  I ran twice the resolution of the problems.  The first time he said it fixed some registry problems but could not solve windows update.  The second time that he claims to have fixed problems with windows update, but it still does not work.

  I had the same problem since a month. I am running Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit. I tried every day to get the update of Windows to work even leave overnight.  I tried all the fixes to the closure of services and their registration, the use of the patch you have.  I was resigned to redefine my PC or having to buy a new (or a Mac) as my laptop does not Windows 10, then I came across this in a thread Windows 7 and I thought I would give it ago, and it WORKED!  That's what I did: first download manually KB3145739 starting from Microsoft Download Center. The link is listed in method 2 or use this link: https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS16-039 make sure you download the package appropriate for Vista.Go in Windows Update and disable automatic updates by selecting never search for updates. Restart the PC, this will ensure the update services have stopped. Manually install the update that you downloaded.  Install it even if your story shows that it has been installedReboot the PCThen try Windows Update by doing a manual update, this worked for me and now I can download updates for Windows and Microsoft Products.  It seems to work for many users of Windows 7, and it seems to work for Vista. I have no idea why we do, but its rather pathetic.  It is perhaps a way to force users to upgrade to Windows 10.

• The cutting tool does not work after windows updates.

  I read answers to similar questions about the failure of the cutting tool.  I use the tool cutting regularly and I think it's a fantastic tool in Windows. I have Vista Ultimate and all my windows updates have managed: none were not installed correctly, and I did not install new programs or hardware.  It seems that Microsoft knows the snipping tool does not - why can't they simply provide an update patch to correct the problem, rather than make us do all the work.  I don't have to go through hoops of restorations etc to get something it seems work was broken by updates.  I'm about to go to a Mac.

  It worked for me! Thank you!

• HP LaserJet 6MP: Windows updated my computer last night, now my 6MP HPLaserJer does not work and I can't get the driver

  After windows updated my computer, my laserjet6MP will not print.  When I click on print, an error message appears indicating that there is an error in printing.  When I checked for error it says there is a job prevents printing to the printer, but there is no jobs in the queue.

  I recently put my computer Setup initial because a hacker stuck to the top of my use of the computer.

  I have not all printers working, but now after update it does not print.  I love this printer and do not give it up.

  If the printer is connected with a parallel cable to the printer to the computer (usb adapter no) go into the Device Manager and click ports, and then click the lpt port that the printer is attached.  Change the default checkmark do not use an interruption for the last item to use any available interruption.  Also the legacy box downstairs.  Save the settings and the printer should work now.
