Microsoft fixit downloads but will not work

• Windows/Microsoft Update downloads but will not install. MSE unable to update itself either when it is installed.

  Microsoft Update fails to install updates and provides no information whatsoever (other that the installation has not of course).
  But the only update I could not go to Microsoft Download Center (fromwhich I could install (nearly) all updates Microsoft Update do not reach), is an update to Windows Security Essentials, which is registered on Ms Update but not available from the Ms Download Center, and which is not detected by Win Security Essentials Update button (this show error code is 0 x 80240022).
  There is definitely a problem with my Ms Update. I tried three different solutions on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144 and no fixed it.
  How can I solve this problem with Ms Update?

  If you didn't go back to IE6 before you did the repair facility, I can assure you that IE8 nor Windows XP working properly, so your update problems, the MSE problem and possibly the rootkit infection.

  I'm going to uninstall IE8, make sure that IE6 is running and then do the repair install from the Windows CD.

  Too late now, my friend.  Running another repair facility - even if you can uninstall IE8 (which you can not according to your last post) - won't fix everything.

  Your only recourse now is to a format the hard drive & then (b) make a clean Windows installation.

  There are two different versions of Flash. ActiveX for IE version and the version of the Plugin for other browsers. Have you installed the correct version? This forum software is not thing that Flash is installed for Firefox or the Plugin is disabled.

  1. download the file of configuration Flash from here:
  
  Adobe Flash - Plugin version.
  
  Save it to your desktop.

  2. close Firefox using file > exit
  
  Then check the Task Manager > processes tab to make sure that firefox.exe is closed.
  
  {XP: Ctrl + Alt + Delete, Vista: Shift + Ctrl + ESC process tab =}

  3. then run the Flash configuration from your desktop file.

  4. run Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

  Hi mgm842,

  1. When did you start to question?

  2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  3. you receive messages or error codes?

  Step 1:

  You can check out the following link and try to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer and check.

  Note: When you perform the analysis, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup of important data before performing analysis.

  Step 2:

  If you are still facing problems then try creating a new user account and check if the problem occurs:

  Hi Mike,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  Since it has been designed to work with Vista, XP & 2000, it may not work in Windows 7 due to incompatibility problem. Therefore, I suggest you to visit the Web site of the manufacturer of the hard drive and download the driver available for the latest operating system.

  If the driver is not available for Windows 7, download the compatible driver for the previous version of Windows and I install it in compatibility mode.

  a. do the driver installation file right click and select Properties and then tap or click on the compatibility tab.

  b. check in the run this program in compatibility mode for: box.

  c. press or click the menu drop down and select a previous operating system, and then tap or click OK.

  d. try to install the driver and verify.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  I have Lightroom on my iMac and MacBook Air, I just new MacBook Pro, all migrated to Pro air but will not work Lightroom until I have disable it on the Air.  HOW CAN I DO THIS?

  There is no such thing as disabling Lightroom 5.7. Just uninstall the software.

  Looks like you have installed 6 Lightroom on two of your computers (including the MacBook Air). In this case, you must find and launch Lightroom 6 (not Lightroom 5.7 or any other version of Lightroom 5) on the MacBook Air and then in the menu help, select logout.

Thunderbird is to connect with my address Centurytel.net , or he would not give me this message. William Shanaman

  Check that Thunderbird is not blocked by a personal firewall.
