  Assuming that the answers to the last 2 questions are Yes and no, respectively, download, install, update and run a scan with each of the following elements (both free).  The scans will take some time, so start one up, go and do something else for a while then come back and start the second time the first completed.

  Thanks for any help.

  1 disconnect from the internet and then try and install updates.

  2. If no joy: -.

  Try to manually download the same and install.
  You can search the individual updates here:

  He just put in the KB number and then perform a search.

  If this still creates a problem, disconnect from the internet and then try to install updates, and another thing you can try is turn off UAC before downloading a first update manually. See: (Guided Help: settings to adjust user account control in Windows 7):

• Windows/Microsoft Update downloads but will not install. MSE unable to update itself either when it is installed.

  Microsoft Update fails to install updates and provides no information whatsoever (other that the installation has not of course).
  But the only update I could not go to Microsoft Download Center (fromwhich I could install (nearly) all updates Microsoft Update do not reach), is an update to Windows Security Essentials, which is registered on Ms Update but not available from the Ms Download Center, and which is not detected by Win Security Essentials Update button (this show error code is 0 x 80240022).
  There is definitely a problem with my Ms Update. I tried three different solutions on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144 and no fixed it.
  How can I solve this problem with Ms Update?

  If you didn't go back to IE6 before you did the repair facility, I can assure you that IE8 nor Windows XP working properly, so your update problems, the MSE problem and possibly the rootkit infection.

  In response, John wrote:

  I'm going to uninstall IE8, make sure that IE6 is running and then do the repair install from the Windows CD.

  Too late now, my friend.  Running another repair facility - even if you can uninstall IE8 (which you can not according to your last post) - won't fix everything.

  Your only recourse now is to a format the hard drive & then (b) make a clean Windows installation.

• OSX El Capitan downloaded but does not install

  HI, I'm trying to improve Yosemite 10.10.5 to El Capitan on an iMac 2010.  Apple Store shows that El Capitan is "downloaded", but it does not seem to pass to install on its own.  I have to do something to start the installation?  He showed "Uploaded" for more than 3 hours.  I recently reformatted my hard duct so there is more than 425 GB of available space.  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  What are you download if erase you the drive? Without an active operating system the downloaded file has never been saved, and cannot work. You should have left well enough alone. You will need to install a version of Mac OS X to upgrade to El Capitan. If your computer comes with Lion or later version, you can do a Net recovery:

  Installation of the net recovery of El Capitan

  1. Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime, press Command + Option + R until a globe appears.
  2. The Utility Menu appears in 5 to 20 minutes. Be patient.
  3. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.
  4. When loading disk utility, select the drive (generally, the entry Out-bumpy) in the list aside.
  5. Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.
  6. Set the GUID partition scheme.
  7. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
  8. Click on the apply button, then click the fact when it is active.
  9. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
  10. Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  This should install it the version of Mac OS X that has been previously installed when the computer was new.

• SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4 download but does not install.

  Have tried several times to install the update, but it does not update. Don't know how to force an update.

  Hi vintagejames,

  ·        How long have you been experiencing this problem?

  ·        You receive an error message?

  ·        You install the update via windows update or manually?

  I suggest you try the steps mentioned below and check if it helps.

  Method 1: Try disabling the security software temporarily.

  Note:  Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Try to install the stand-alone package manually. See the link for the last update:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913089
