  • You are prompted to install the security update even if the update is already installed

    I use a laptop which has downgraded from Vista Home to Windowx XP Pro w / SP2 (although maybe it's not relevant). Issues installing security updates through Windows Update before today have never known. I am prompted to install the update from a security XP KB956744, what I have done. I installed it through Windows Update and automatic command prompt directly. I even posted the update as something to ignore, but I am always prompted to install it. I also tried to uninstall the version on my machine, and then reinstall the update, but I am always prompted to install it.

    Two questions:
    1. because I received a prompt saying that it has been successfully installed and it appears in Add/Remove Programs, I can safely assume that it has been installed successfully even if I continue to prompt to install it?
    2. If my previous question is true, how can I window update to ignore this update even if I have already reported as such by the normal means?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Go to add or remove programs and look for the KB956744-security update and remove it.

    After opening closed, be prompted to install the update.  Accepted the request of updates install, still continue to receive demand updates install on each request to stop.

    Hi DTIRDT,
     
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Forums.
     
    First, I suggest to install all updates manually by running the Windows updates and check if all updates are installed.
    Once installed try turn off the computer and check if you are always faced with the question, if so post back so that we can help you further.
     
    It is best to install the updates when the computer is running.
     
    I hope this helps.

    If I buy windows 8 (any OS windows) now and install in my computer and after a year when I change my computer, can I install the SAME operating system in the new computer?

    You can if you buy a commercial box full of Windows 8 version.

    If you buy a computer with Windows preinstalled, or a version OEM of Windows 8, 8 No, you can't.

    If you buy a version upgrade, you can, as long as the new computer has a licensed version earlier of Windows on them.

    I contacted Adobe support. I can only downgrade 1 version back. for example DC back to XI. cannot go back to V10. Third party software does not yet support DC. They argue that the worm 8 and 9. But my test shows 10 worm works as well
