The hotfix Microsoft Agent - downloaded file is faulty

A MICROSOFT WINDOWS PATCH HAS A DEFECT IN THE PROGRAM

************************************************
SUMMARY/BRIEF ANSWER:
************************************************

It's the Microsoft Agent PATCH

(Defective file: 395039_intl_i386_zip.exe)

HOTFIX is suggested for Wndows 7 but:

(1) the work does not correctly; and (2) do not extract properly

The first problem is caused by the incorrect and misleading program asking for a password. This password request appears to be an artifact of programming.

The second problem is confirmed by selecting a place known for the extraction of file: it can easily be confirmed that the file - which is supposed to be self-extracting - does not extract directory/folder location.

NOTE: The deceptively program reports that the files of zip archive was extracted, although, as it is easy to check, this is not the case.

My system is a HP Compaq Presario CQ42, which has Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed.

LONG ANSWER: (read optional))
************************************************

I downloaded the Microsoft Agent Hotfix from the Microsoft site.

This is the fix that seems faulty - in more ways than one:

395039_intl_i386_zip.exe

It's supposed to be self-extracting and solve this problem, but it doesn't seem to be mining and requires a password that is not defined. I am the owner and the only user on my laptop and have no trouble installing anything else - if any program wants to make chamges on my Kaspersky 2010 (my internet security program) hard drive request confirmation. (Who did not with this fix, which wasn't even a problem.)

Here is what happened (as noted in my response to feedback from the site in the feedback form page that I came back after that extraction of fix seems to be constantly failing, while at the same time have reported that it had extracted from the zipped file).

MY FEEDBACK SITE CITY TO MICROSOFT RESPONSE:
__________________________________________________

"I downloaded the fix for Microsoft Agent, but he asked me for a password. I tried to jump and I tried to use my administrator password, and I tried "Empty space" as password - if she says that all the files have been extracted this wasn't the case, I think - Norbert, they were extracted into a directory by default, not the selected one - because, although I tried to do the extraction with the default directory I also did it with an another directory - THE FILES WERE NOT EXTRACTED IN IT!

"Why so the hotfix dialog box saying they were when they were not...". and has been the password requested my password administrator or something I know that Microsoft has left in the hotfix by mistake? »

POSTSCRIPT:

If the fix installed properly, then he did it in a default directory (C :) regardless of my choice, this rental selection dialog box is so confusing and misleading.) I have no way of knowing if she was installing because I can't extract zip archive in a known directory.

Demand for the password dialog box is also source of confused, and if a password is not necessary so that this dialog box is doing here? And what password he asks? (Apart from requiring a password, this dialog box offers two other options 'ignore' and 'always jump'. I wish that all passwords have been so EASILY OBTAINED [by me at least!] ... apparently, apparently, or did the extraction FAIL - for reasons of security, that could be because the programmer has left a password security Microsoft internal dialog box in the code for the calculation of fix to still hampered by no other in Microsoft while he or she wrote the program for the patch?)

(By the way, I don't know why you make more Agents - one to talk to, maybe - they are so cute!)

Thank you, Andrew!

I did as you said: I received the password in the email I received.

Then, I downloaded the hotfix file by using the hyperlink providedinthe email to access the patch correct download page. It's simple and straightforward.

It seems to be exactly the same file I had already downloaded that didn't work before (without password).

I used the password to unlock the zipped file.

Two files were extracted from my chosen target (a folder to unzip) directory:

Hotfix.txt

and...

Windows6.1 KB 969168-x 86.msu

I clicked on the .msu file and the patch was then automatically and correctly installed on my computer.

Thank you

Elizabeth Jane

    Unfortunately, I don't think that there is there a work around. The only thing I can think of that one possibility would be a separate download applet in the Web application, a download button that sends the attachment to this applet and lie next to the Interactive session.

    It sounds like a lot of work, and I don't know if it would work.

    The differences in the HTTP standard for forms set how are managed in fact a very difficult problem to solve.

  • When the hotfix Microsoft Netflix support in Media Center?

    Every time I run the Netflix player of in Windows Vista (32-bit SP2) I am invited to log on to Netflix and presented with an error "there was a problem of signing."

    * I have read and followed the tips at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972496
    * I have not all ASCII characters senior weird in my e-mail address or password
    * I'm back to a March 7, 2011 Restore Point
    * I've uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin from Netflix and Silverlight
    * I deleted my cookies and cache in Internet Explorer
    * I properly connected and watched movies from Netflix through the IE web browser but not WMC
    * I restarted several times

    I noticed that several other application vendors had problems with their Netflix viewers around the same time and most of them already corrected.

    I performed a network packet capture and noticed Media Center tries to authenticate to the web service of Netflix OAuth and she receives a 503 Service unavailable from Netflix answer.

    I called Netflix support and was told to contact Microsoft, because the problem is NOT with the Silverlight Netflix Player component; the problem is with the Microsoft-developed MCML-BASED component.  Support for this issue lies squarely with Netflix AND Microsoft since this is a problem BETWEEN the TWO component MCML-BASED and the Netflix authentication system.

    I tried the instructions in the following link, even if it's for Windows 7; It did not help either:

  • What would be the Windows 7 Installer download file name?

    A couple of years ago, I bought Windows 7 to upgrade a Vista laptop.  It is a download purchase that I had to create an installation DVD of.  Long story short, I never put Windows 7 on the laptop.  I did the installation DVD is not found I want to update now.  Somewhere on my computer laptop is that file that I downloaded to create the Windows Installer DVD... but what the hell would be the name of the file?  I have my product code recorded in the receipt of e-mail from the purchase of Windows, but of course the download link for the file is now expired.  I can order a backup drive now that the download link has expired, but I prefer to find the file and do not have to wait for a disk to be shipped.

    Any help to know which files am I looking for?  I'm guessing that maybe it's a zip file?  My hard drive is full and I have no idea what file name, I should be looking.

    Thanks for any help.

    When I try to upload files to various sites, I can't find the "change date". Usually, I have the 'update' so that the last file that I worked on is on the top of the list and I quikly find.

    I checked on three different sites and each of them, when I go to browse the file to download, the "modification date" don't appear in the search window, and I have to type the name of the file, or scroll through the file to find.
    I can't find the "change date".

    OK... found it... for some reason when I had it on large icons, he wasn't showing me it... i changed large icons for details... and when I right click I saw ' sort by ' and then 'update'... after I clicked on update he showed on the column.
