• 'new installed windows updates' shows is not in the notification area

  I figured!

  REPOST...

  You will never see the pop up 'windows installed new updates' or the icon of updates when Defender auto-updates to update its definitions.

  I'm not sure that understand what you mean by "auto-mises to day." The Defender only updates that I know are those I have download and install myself via Windows Update. (I have Windows Update to notify me when updates are ready to download and install the value). When I download and install an update of Defender I get a message 'windows installed new updates' like I did today and the 26, but has not the 25 that prompted my original message. So, I'm confused about your last response and how it solves the problem that I sometimes do not receive the message "windows installed new updates".

• Installed a Windows Update and now 5 Lightroom keeps showing an error message, and then exits.

  Windows Update and now when I try to open Lightroom it gives me a message that says "Lightroom has encountered an error when reading it is an overview of the cache and will try again during the reboot" reboot is not good at all.

  The problem you are experiencing is not related to an update of Windows. The preview cache is corrupt. You must use Windows Explorer or the Finder to open the folder that contains your catalog. Find the folder that has the extension .lrdata and delete the entire folder. Then, launch Lightroom as you normally would. Lightroom will be in the construction of a new Preview file and you should be able to continue normally.

  I don't know the reason, but a lot of people have experienced this same problem. Take a look at the more "like this" list to the right of this message. It is more common than you might expect.

• I run IE11 8.1 on windows. Flash installed is 15.0.0. I can't seem to print all pages in a document, it shows only the first page. I've allowed Shockwave, disables the ActiveX and windows update. What can I do else?

  This should be corrected from Flash Player 15.0.0.189.  Run Windows Update and make sure you have the latest.

• I have windows XP package #3. I get this message "Windows update agent having to install? When I say yes, he said is not available at this time.

  It should affect my ability to send photos by e-mail using Kodak easysoftware.  Whenever I try to send a picture, it says you must be connected to the server and I'm connected with ATT using my air card.

  These wireless internet connections are generally neither strong enough nor reliable enough to update your computer.

  Unplug the card (delete) the air then connect to the internet via a modem cable or ADSL (for example, to the to a friend or your local library). Now open Internet Explorer (only) to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com . Select CUSTOM and scan | Install all security critical updates available (e.g. KB980182).  If an update of root certificates is listed in the category of optional software updates on the left side of the scan results window, install it to enjoy enhanced Internet Explorer security.

  NOTE: If IE8 is not already installed, do NOT install it via Windows Update! Just hide it ("don't show me this update") for now.

• Downloaded and installed Windows updates. Running to find the modified theme and no clear Vista theme.

  Can someone explain what happened? All the available themes are the current non-transparent theme, called 'Modified Theme' and the classic Windows theme.

  It's really strange and really very boring, simply because I didn't ask for this.
  Everything I have done differently was click on the button that says "downloads and installs updates before Shutting Down", in the usual area where is the sleep button.
  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

  You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

  But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

  You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

  'Remove an update'

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

  When you have found the issue of update of the list of updates which is presented > then right click on the update problem > select Hide update > and it will not be available to you once again

  "How to hide or show an update of Windows Vista"

  Here's how to chanage update settings, if you think it is necessary to:

  "Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/Windows-Vista-updates-and-extras/

  Or the other of these two update settings will give you the chance to see what you want to install through Windows updates;

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  But remember you normally only have problems with hardware 3rd party drivers. Other updates are to improve the Performance and security of your system

  See you soon.

  Sirot,
  It sounds as if there is something in the way of installation.  First of all, make sure that your system is free of malware\virus infections.  This thread has some great information on this topic: getting rid of malware.   If you do not find infections or even the question after removing them and then perform a clean boot , and then run updates.  Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

• Windows Update fails to install with error code 8e5e03fb

  15 July Windows Update suddenly stopped to download and install some important files required to update Vista Home Premium SP1. The error code is still 8e5e03fb, not recognized by Microsoft, although I saw messages on Forums dating back to April 2009, mentioning only the code. I worked with Alan Leon, Support Engineer, but without success. Some updates pass through but none are helpful to the OS or Internet Explorer. So far, none of the Knowledge Base articles have been useful. Only one file, c:\windows\system32\dllcache\wucltui.dll, is missing from my system, but Alan Leon has not confirmed that it might be relevant. Alan suggested that my problem might be connected connection but his suggested change my settings did not bring the expected results. My ISP has a function that allows me to see the data to flow both up and down. When data are sent or received, it can be seen clearly but when Windows Update is running, there is no data flow showing.
