  • I have an update showing several times in the list of downloaded updates

    I have advanced and deleted the Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB959209) x 86 update
    in the part "updates installed" my Windows update page (NO programs/uninstall programs from the Control Panel window)

    Well, when I conducted an audit of updates, that is returned. So I downloaded.

    Now I have two of these same entries displayed in the list off updates. That's it list that displays all the updates a downloads, NOT the list where you can uninstall the update. In this list, there is only 1 entry of
    Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB959209) x 86

    It causes problems that shows the update twice in the list?

    Ignore what you see in the history of the update. As KB959209 appears only once in theinstalled updates, you're good.

  • Fix for common problems associated with Windows Update repeatedly trying to solve the same problem

    When the machine running Windows Update on a Windows XP Professional (SP3 with IE8), the information for the download of the ActiveX bar does not appear. Tried to run the Fix for "Common problems with Windows Update" and it says "Windows Update components must be repaired. Difficulty-it short, reports of success, "Found Themes" saying "one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly". However, still unable to download updates from the information bar does not appear. Repeating the difficulty happens with exactly the same problem i.e. reports etc. but no success still can not download the ActiveX on Windows Update since the information bar never shows up.

    At tried all the suggested solutions I can find for the reported similar problems such as checking the downloads ActiveX security settings, reset Internet Explorer settings, and even resetting Windows Update (Articlce ID 971058) components. Still no luck. Therefore, I am unable to manually check and download updates of Windows security.

    Otherwise my PC works well. Norton Internet Security is installed but did not prevent Windows Update to work on another PC I have. The information bar appears sometimes for other downloads, and it doesn't seem to be a problem on the Windows Update page.

    Please can you help. Thank you.

    No, I'm not not first uninstall IE8 (or IE7) before proceeding with the repair facility...

    Long history, technical, short version: do not uninstall IE8 (and/or IE7) before doing a repair installation (Windows XP only!) leaves the two Internet Explorer and Windows in a State of "confused" or "broken". Your only recourse now is a clean install of Windows (after backup your personal data).

    No, another repair facility won't solve the problem - even if you uninstall IE8 beforehand.

    Follow the instructions in this post of mine in another forum (to-the-letter & in order! ) to restore your computer to a State safe & functional: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=44636

    If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system

    Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

    Wish I had better news for you.  Good luck!

    PS: So that registry cleaners can solve some problems (temporarily, at least), they are not & cannot fix what caused the problem. Compare to treat a broken leg with a stick and a couple of BandAids.

  • I'm not abe to do the Windows updates, message warns me that the service is not running

    I can't do an update of windows due to a message saying that the service is not running.  What this means and how can I solve the problem.

    Hi EmogeneHutchinson,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         You install updates?

    ·         What is the full error message?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    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: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the section How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state of the link to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    After the clean boot used to resolve the problem, you can follow these steps to configure Windows XP to start normally.

    (a) click Start, run.

    (b) type msconfigand click OK.

    (c) the System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    (d) click the general tab, click Normal startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

    (e) when you are prompted, click restart to restart the computer.

    Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx

    Method 4: Follow the steps in the article.
