Looking for the path of updates installed on windows XP, Windows 7. I mean the location in the drive and the folder

Not quite sure what you mean but, in Windows XP, updates are stored on the root drive (the drive where Windows is installed in) in
WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download
The uninstall files are stored in subfolders hidden from the Windows directory and are named $NtUninstallKBxxxxxx$.

Windows 7 puts the updates in the same location as XP, but they are not reusable, because their content is stored in the BONES (in Volume Shadow service and component based) as are their uninstall information.

  • where do the updates installed on your pc?

    where do the updates installed on your pc?  I checked the edits and click Download 5.7 update.  I can't find anywhere on my pc.

    Yes, your right.  This is the default location.  In my case, I was clicking on the button download under 'Help', ' Check for Updates ' and the 5.7 update Advisory was there.  By clicking the button "Download" did nothing.  I tried the cat for almost 2 hours with Adobe Support and they just asked me to click on the direct link that they provided rather than fix the problem that the "Download" button did nothing.

    Thank you for your answer!

  • Office Ko missing update in the updates installed, but Windows 7 says it is installed.

    One of my users knew a bug in Microsoft Office 2010, so I installed the good Office Update KB3085604.  Unfortunately, the user still knows the problem of Microsoft Office so I decided to check to see if the update was successfully installed.  When I go to "View installed updates", the KB3085604 of office does not appear. I tried to type in the Installed Updates research and he said: "no items match your search.

    What is strange, is that if I try to re - install the update, it says it's already installed and if you check the update history, it says that it has been installed. But even once, it does not appear in the installed updates.

    I tried to uninstall the update through command prompt using the wusa uninstall and it said that there is no such thing as the update. The computer running Windows 7 32 bit SP 1 and we use Sophos Endpoint Security. Maybe Sophos has played a role but other users of Sophos have been able to install this update without any problem. Any ideas what is causing this error?

    The update of Microsoft Windows KB3134214 file is suspended and will not be, nor finish the rest downloads to install. I downloaded the updated individual security file.

    Hi Nathalie,.

    Thanks for the reply and the link to the article. I appreciate it. While I was not having trouble to download updates, it was one of the update of the files froze during installation. I had gel resulting set before your answer.

    I'm not sure what I did to fix it, but the installed annoying file itself. Here are the steps I took to learn that annoying file has been installed:

    "I restarted my computer.

    "then stop it showed that he was trying to install the file again

    "I hit the reset button on my machine.

    "My machine is restarted, I received the message that my machine was not correctly stop and choose Safe mode or start normally.

    "I chose boot normally.

    "Somewhere during the start-up, something installed or flashed a message

    "My system automatically restarted by itself.

    "On my screen, my computer displays a message saying it was set up my system.

    'My computer restarted again

    "Back to my login screen, I had a repeat of the previous message from my computer's configuration.

    "After that over, I arrived at my office

    "I've manually run Windows Update

    "After Windows Update, I checked the files available, disabled the original file in question and click the button install.

    "These files correctly installed and gave a message requesting to restart."

    "I rebooted my system manually.

    "Back in my office, I manually tried to install the file in question.

    "It gave me a message that it was already installed.

    How he installed himself is a mystery. Other than on the first attempt to update my machine, it has NEVER included in my another attempt to update. Anyway, my machine is purring along as if nothing had happened.

    You can mark my question.

    Thanks for your help,

  • The Installation of VMWare tools failed. In any case to force the update/install VMWare tools?

    I used to use VMware Workstation 10 and recently upgraded to VMware workstation 11.  However, whenever I try to install a newer version of VMware tools, it will fail with message saying something like "VMware Tools can be installed in the Virtual Machine.

    Yes, I am trying to install VMware Tools within the guest operating system, but I get this notification for all my virtual machines, I'm running.

    I'm under 6 Virtual Machines simultaneously and they run on Windows 7 32 bit OS and configured with 4 GB of RAM, 1CPU, 100GB HD + 5 GB second HD for the swap file, NO printer, no sound card.

    For each virtual machine, I changed about 50 + key of Windows registry and detect the values to hide from all the programs that they are running on the virtual machine.

    I assume due to records, I changed, it confuses VM installer who it is not running on a Virtual Machine.  Then I tried to change all these registers changed to send it back to the original value, yet I is always the same message.

    I must be missing either some registry values or values that I restored is false. But I don't know which is the case.

    I can simply delete all my Virtual Machines and start again with the new virtual machine, but I don't want to repeat this process whenever a newer version of the VM tools out. and installation of windows and search and replace registry values for each virtual computer is full of works.

    So, here is my question.  Anyone know how to force the update / install VM tools in my virtual machine?

    P.S. I added under scripts in the file .vmx for each of the virtual machines.  I don't think it would cause the problem but just in case I include it.

  • Satellite L655 - sound does not work on the new install of Windows 7 Pro x 64

    Howdy all,

    I bought a Newegg L655-S5111, which was on sale, put an SSD, and then installed a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit, I got from my current employer (I'm a computer scientist). I've updated to the latest revision of the BIOS (1.70), and I have all the updates installed Windows, all drivers installed, including the correct drivers Conexant HD Audio and ATI HDMI Audio. Unfortunately, the sound does not work. Sound works briefly during my first install of Windows 7, then I cut it up until I could get it set up with a helmet. When I disabled it, she had stopped working.

    This laptop is less than 3 weeks at this point, old and I get no audio on headphones or speakers, even if Windows displays clearly no problems with the drivers, they have the latest version on a new installation, and I can see the audio mixer game. The laptop built-in microphone captures sound as well. I think that's probably not a matter of the physical interconnection, but more likely a software problem, I just have trouble identifying where it is.

    I have also no related error message than any where in the case of newspapers.

    Post edited by: ADMIN

    Can you please do a test and install original recovery image Toshiba, that you got with your laptop on this new SSD, just to see if it will work with the original image.

    Recovery image contains all the necessary drivers and OS is perfectly configured so each piece of hardware in your laptop should work correctly.

    If anyone can give some suggestions I would greatly appreciate the help and advice.

    Thank you

    Hi Byron,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I do not understand that you are unable to connect to Windows to receive the updates and run Windows Defender and I'll be happy to answer your query.

    This could be due to any dispute of third party software or system files missing or corrupt. We will try the following methods and check.

    Method 1: Put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

    Method 2: Run the System File Checker tool

    System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

    Press the Windows key + X , and then click prompt (Admin)

    Type the following command and press enter

    sfc/scannow

    Note: Do not close the command prompt window until the audit is completed 100%. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is complete.

    From now on, try the methods above and let us know the result.

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

  • After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive.

    I have a lenovo laptop, processor Intel i3, 500 GB hard drive. After the clean install of windows 7, it gives an error saying that there is a problem in the hard drive.

    It is on the same computer.  The PC has the standard COMPUTER stuff.  VIper and they handle most of the firewall settings (windows).  I have turned them all off before installing.  I think it was a matter of execution engine.  I have no time to fight with LabView, so I uninstalled all LabView!  Then I made a new installation of the DVD.  This works.  I never install a patch of NOR without a week of free time!  In others, ever!  Whenever I do it, it takes me at least a day to get my operating environment!  Thanks for your time.  It is appreciated.
