(Follow the steps described in this post by Diana D)

Also, try the following steps (credit: Control_tps):

1. go in programs and features, click on it.

2. scroll to the bottom for Microsoft.Net Framework 4 Client Profile, do a right click.

3. we will give you a choice of uninstall/change, click it.

4. then it will give a choice to repair, choose repair.  It will take about 4 to 10 minutes to repair (with my PC), your experience may vary.

5. Once finished, go to your update and new Update Center.

    Error code 80242FFF when you try to install security update Cumulative for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista (KB2699988)

    Hello

    1. is that the copy of windows is enabled?

    2 is the issue limited to the installation of a security update Cumulative for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista (KB2699988)?

    I suggest to perform the steps in the following article and check.

    Method 1: run the Windows update troubleshooting tool and check.

    The problem with Microsoft Windows Update is not working http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/

    Method 2: I suggest you to put the computer in a clean boot state and check if Windows update installs successfully.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows vista 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.

    See the link below for more details:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows vista and windows 7:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135


    Note:
    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps in the section above to reset the computer to start as usual.

    Method 3: If the problem persists, follow the steps in the following article.
