Updates to Silverlight - is installed Silverlight?

Windows Update said today that it is 'important' that I have to install an update for Silverlight.  As far as I know, I've never installed Silverlight.  How can I be sure?

Panel--> Add / Remove Programs (see the update verified) for Windows XP
Panel--> programs and features (or "Programs"--> "Uninstall a program") for Windows Vista/7
 
Of course - if you have not installed - you would get the offer for the update (or if you did, the update installation will fail.)  ;-)

  • ANY update for Silverlight will fail: it will download but not install

    I have Windows 7 Edition Vista Home Premium; and noted that for several years ANY update for Silverlight will fail: it will download but not install. I understand that a seller of windows is not installed, looks like mine done in ' 05.There is something on the part of Silverlight is not signed digitally.  My record of updates shows NOTHING for Silverlight. There is a single entry, "Microsoft Silverlight" in the updated register and register the program. I can't uninstall, even by Microsoft'sIlverlight Home Page on an installation or uninstall. Been through the web, don't want to spend $ on something I don't know. What I have has been disable Silverlight to add it in the menu under Internet Options.

    Anyone know how to get rid of something to do with Silverlight? With thanks... LarryWX.

    Go to \program files\microsoft silverlight and delete the folder.

    I tried to update Microsoft Silverlight from Windows Update is showing this update "KB2690729". The problem seems to be that Silverlight is damaged on my computer and no updates can be installed correctly. I tried to uninstall silverlight, but even once the uninstall is altered.

    If someone did a solution on how to do a clean uninstall so I can reinstall Silverlight or how to fix this problem situation, that would be greatly appreciated.

  • Windows7 started to freeze on two computers after that microsoft sent an update to silverlight.these computers work a long time before the update.

    Windows7 started to freeze on my and my computer wives at the same time that it was after Microsoft sent an update for Silverlight down on 23/07/2014. These computers have worked very well for years without any problem. I tried to uninstall the update, but Microsoft has changed the name and number of the update and I don't know who it is. I don't understand why they are doing anyway. Does anyone else have this problem. Help, please.    hushpups Thank YOU.

    Hello

    Thank you for reaching out to us to Microsoft Community.

    Ideally, Windows updates from Microsoft doesn't cause problems with freezing of the computer.  Microsoft recommends that you install all the recommended updates and it protects your computer against potential threats, and it also maintains.

    The question you are faced to could be linked to corrupt Silverlight which can cause computer freeze if the associated Silverlight Windows Update are installed.

    To resolve this problem, I will ask you uninstall to clean up the corrupted installation of Silverlight and then reinstall Silverlight.

    To do this, please follow the steps described in the Microsoft Support Article below.

    How to clean a facility damaged Silverlight and then reinstall Silverlight

    Also, I recommend that you turn on automatic updates. Important updates provide significant benefits, such as improved security and reliability. You can also set Windows to automatically install recommended updates, which can address non-critical problems and help enhance your computing experience. Microsoft updates and optional updates are not downloaded or installed automatically.

    Activate the update or disable automatic

    Hope the helps of information provided. Let us know in case you need more help.

  • Roll back the update of Silverlight

    On 29 September, Microsoft Update has eliminated an update of Silverlight. I suspect that it was the cause of the changes in functionality in a program that I use, so I want to uninstall this update to conduct tests. How can I do this? It doesn't seem to be installable via Win7 Pro 64-bit programs and features.
