• XP - cannot install KB976323

  I have that happen on six different (so far) computers with a XP Home or Pro and installed SP3.  Here's what happens:

  I run Windows update (or click on the shield in the system tray) and it shows kb976323.  I install it, it says it installed, and I reboot.  To restart, Windows manual update or the shield shows uninstalled kb976323.  I went to the \windows\$ntuninstallkb976323$\spuninst folder and uninstalled, then manually downloaded and reinstalled (both in normal mode and safe), but the update continues to view as needing to be reinstalled.  How can I fix it?

  Thank you

  WYSIWYG, I'm afraid. I have found your support options in my previous answer.

  That being said, I want to clarify that KB976323 is an Important for WinXP (not critical) security update and it is highly unlikely that you you are hosting an SMTP server on all Windows XP-based computers. Use this information as you see fit in your particular environment.

• Receive the error message "the instruction at"0 x 00424590"referenced memory at"0 x 00000004", the memory could not be"written"." Error is received before the Windows logon prompt

  Receive the error referenced memory before you receive the logon prompt Windows session during the boot process.  Have replaced the RAM on the computer.  Windows Xp SP3.

  If anyone can identify the update that they think that may be the cause of the problem, you can navigate to the uninstall folder and determine what files have been updated.  If they can not start (except in the Recovery Console), you can also sort updates the date by using the dir command in the folder c:\windows (all $NtUninstall records).

  Problem is who writes all updates with Patch Tuesday comes around (say... it's today!-be prepared for positions "broken Windows my computer updates" start coming!).

  For example:

  When you install an update, first installation makes a copy of the files he wants to replace in the $ $NtUninstallKBnnnnnn... folder.

  That's why you can uninstall the update later.  Running uninstall the update will sometimes remove the updated files, then copy the original return files.  Sometimes uninstalling copy just the original preupdate on top of the most recent files.  It can also remove some registry keys, so Windows Update do not think you have more (look at the spuninst.inf file).

  Look at this update of security for example (KB950762) that updates c:\windows\system32\drivers\rmcast.sys:

  If you have installed, it will create this folder:

  c:\windows\$NtUninstallKB950762$

  You will have the front update file c:\windows\system32\dllcache\rmcast.sys in this folder since the installation of the update makes a copy of the original file for you.

  Then look at the file spuninst.txt spuninst folder and you will see what will happen if you need to uninstall the update:

  DEL "c:\windows\$hf_mig$\kb950762\sp3qfe\rmcast.sys".
  COPY 'C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB950762$\rmcast.sys' 'c:\windows\system32\dllcache\rmcast.sys '.
  COPY 'C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB950762$\rmcast.sys' 'c:\windows\system32\drivers\rmcast.sys '.
  COPY 'C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB950762$\spuninst\spuninst.txt' 'C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB950762$\spuninst\spuninst.tag '.

  In this case, uninstalling just copy the original file on top of the files that have been applied in the update, the spunint.inf updates registry tips and that's all.

  Notice that it also replaces the file in the dllcache folder too - c:\windows\system32\drivers\rmcast.sys is one of the 3498 drop that PAM cares everything (it's number 2500 in the list).  In dllcache files are backup files.

  If you were to access your drivers folder and rename c:\windows\system32\drivers\rmcast.sys to rmcast.lem, almost before you can Flash the 'missing' file will be replaced with the copy in the dllcache folder and you will see this in the event log:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Windows File Protection
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 64002
  Description:
  File replacement was attempted on the protected system file c:\windows\system32\drivers\rmcast.sys. This file was restored to the original version to maintain system stability. The file version of the system file is 5.1.2600.5598.

  It is WFP in action and this means that WFP is working!

• How to restore Microsoft updates list to add and remove programs in the control panel?

  Under Widows XP SP3

  You have the box show updates checked (at the top of the Add/Remove window)?

  How long and how did you remove the updates from the list?  If only recently you can use system restore to roll back the machine just before you deleted the items.

  Why should you list?  Updates can be uninstalled manually with the Spuninst.exe utility, look in the update to spuninst folder, example:

  C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB973687$\Spuninst

• kb2446704-uninstall folder

  kb2446704 - unlike the other regular KBs which creates $spuninst, Im a moment, look for the KB2446704 uninstall folder, this folder in C:\ is this saved Ko?

  Hi rheapp,

  Not all the updates are available to be deleted. Some updates cannot be uninstalled for example, once installed they are there permanently. Also, some updates cannot be removed using the Add/Remove Programs (Control Panel) tool.

  You can check if you can find the update in Add / Remove programs.

• Can I change the default folder for new documents Pages?

  When I run the application Pages, the first thing I see is a Finder window. For some reason, this Finder window invariably opens, not with the Documents folder, but in a specific subfolder of the folder images. Sometimes I use this folder as source for the photos that I insert into documents, but I don't want to see this folder every time I run the application Pages.

  How can I control this behavior? I see nothing in the preferences page to set a default value.

  When you launch Pages, you will be presented with a file picker (not the actual Finder). The left sidebar will be a folder of Documents, you must select. At this point, you can simply stop Pages. He will remember to open in the last selected folder and on the content of the Document folder, you will see a file chooser. As long you open, edit, save, or export documents in the Documents folder, it will remember this folder.

  If you change the location of the folder memory, whether it is in the file picker, or save or export to another location of the folder, and then the next launch of Pages will direct you to the last used folder location and not the location of the Documents folder.

  There is no user parameter which can be set to always override the behavior of Pages above.
