    Do you have other accounts of users on this PC?  If you install this update from the main account?

    You should get the number of the update of the updated history list and then download the file here: Microsoft downloads.
    If sure that nothing else is running, and then install the update manually.  Give it a try and let us know the results.

    First of all, you can try using system restore if the problem just started happening.

    Go to your Start Menu > Accessories > system tools > system restore.

    Select a point of dated system restore to before the problem started happening and then restore your system at this point. During the system restore, you can restore the configuration of your system and you will not lose any personal data, the system restore affects only your configuration.

    After doing the system restore you don't like something that has changed on your system, you can "undo" the restoration of the system.

    If the system restore is not an option for you, or System Restore does not resolve the problem, you can take the measures put forward in the Microsoft Knowledgebase article below:

    You can also try diagnostics automated web site Windows Fix It:

    or take the advanced stages described in the following knowledge base article:
