Guest Beau Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 KB929916 KB935807 KB905866 933928 KB935280 KB937077 I had auto update install 3 times at least with reboots. I've turned it off waiting for a reply. I'm frustrated so please let me vent: In my 17 years of MS computing, going back to early MS-DOS, I never had a total operating system crash that required a full reinstall on my new machine until Vista.
Guest Charlie.Seah Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Hi there try to dis-select KB935807 cause of that one no others can be install we had exactlly the same problem but til now MS still not came out with a solution / fix yet. and don't try to install KB935807 cause it'll kept repeating out the update require again and again, its very annoying and its keep rebooting. Try to search with "KB935807" within here you 'll see some "fox" but for me it won't help so may be you can be lucky for it ^^ but for now on just dis-select the KB935807 in order others can be installed.

Guest Beau Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Thanks Charlie. I was thinking of going through and deselecting each one until I found the one or several causing the problem. I'll give your suggestion a try. Seems odd that MS would keep putting out an update that people are having problems with.

Guest Beau Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Charlie, I searched for "KB935807" in here like you mentioned and saw many others having the same problem. I tried manually installing it but that didn't work so I just deselected if from Vista's updater and selected it to let me decide which updates to install. Weird how all 6 would not install because of "KB935807". Just thinking of all those computers sold this year with Vista, Auto Update on, and most people not knowing anything even how to find a solution like here. Thanks. :-) Beau
Guest Charlie.Seah Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 You 're welcome, I also waiting the new patch for it so at this moment I'm still look around and wait for a fix for this KB and I found something below from "itsvista.com" hope it'll work for you, I'll try later cause now was 12AM in Malaysia, hahaha, gtg ^^ good luck man! Quota from Scott:" So, MS released a new version, revision 1.1 today: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/ms07-038.mspx It did not work for me. The manual installation did however. Check your 'installation history', and if successful, just hide the update if it still appears. For manual x32 install: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=e9b64746-6afa-4a30-833d-e058e000c821&displaylang=en for x64: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0df5d190-3ad7-42d5-8629-43c47ec450cb&displaylang=en Hope this works for everyone."

Guest jamand Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 May have solved this problem (thanks to TaurArian as well) OK - go here and DOWNLOAD the update manually to your desktop. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e9b64746-6afa-4a30-833d-e058e000c821&DisplayLang=en Once downloaded - switch off ALL FIREWALL and ANTI VIRUS software. Double Click MY COMPUTER DOUBLE CLICK VISTA FIND - SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION - (there may be TWO one may be - SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION.OLD - if you find the OLD file - DELETE IT - ALL OF IT). THEN open the SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION folder and DELETE everything in it. EMPTY IT FROM RECYCLE BIN. Then DOUBLE CLICK the icon on DESKTOP to install KB935807 manually. Once done - shut down and restart. It worked for me and I have NO mesages telling me I still need to install this update. Hope it works for you "Beau" wrote: > KB929916 > KB935807 > KB905866 > 933928 > KB935280 > KB937077 > > I had auto update install 3 times at least with reboots.

Guest DCJ Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 -- DCJ before you install the manual download I believe you have to open up the Windows folder, open the software distributions folder, delete the files in the data store folder, click the back button and delete the files in the download folder. Microsoft recommends turning off the Windows update service prior to doing this. To do this you open the administrative tools, go to services, find Windows update and stop it. Then clear the files as noted above. then install the manual download update.

Guest Charlie.Seah Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Dear DJC, I had tried 3X and 3X repeated the step below: 1. Disable "Window Update" under services. 2. Rename "SoftwareDistribution" -> SDTemp12 (mean 12th time tried T_T). 3. Delete ALL in internet explorer. 4. Download manual installer in link from TaurArian [MS-MVP] 5. Delete ALL again in IE. 6. Double click and install the manual installer "Windows6.0-KB935807-x86". 7. Installing... 8. Request for restart in order the effect of the update. 9. So I clicked restart, system restart. 10. After boot on, windows is "Configuring Update". 11. After that it automatic reboot again. 12. After boot on, no more "Configuring Update", login to my system. 13, Kool, waited for 15 Min no complaint as before. 14, So I open window update again, saw that I never check for update, screen in red. 15. Double check again for the "Installed Update". 16. It says KB935807 installed successful. 17. Check for update once more, bump!, it come up again...T_T. 18. So install again.... and again reboot and reboot... 19. So after serveral time I give up, now I right click "Hide Update" until futher solution is coming up from MS. 20. So now my "Installed Update" had 1X success KB9350807 (Without description Vista) and 2X failed KB935807 (With description Vista). So its doen't work for me...T_T "DCJ" wrote: > > -- > DCJ before you install the manual download I believe you have to open up the > Windows folder, open the software distributions folder, delete the files in > the data store folder, click the back button and delete the files in the > download folder. > Microsoft recommends turning off the Windows update service prior to doing > this.

Guest Beau Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Jamand, thanks for your information and help. I followed your procedure but was wondering something. I moved the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder to an external drive just to be safe. With manual install of the update and a reboot it rebuilt the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder but now I only see 7 of the 9 folders. Missing are WuRedir and PostRebootEventCache. Are they necessary or will they also rebuild later? I could always move them back from my external drive. Thanks very much. I don't mind admitting I was a little worried about messing up Vista with this but it worked. :-) Beau
Guest Beau Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 UPDATE: Unfortunately this procedure did not work for me and Vista still wants to install KB935807. I followed the directions exactly. I'm keeping update off until MS gets things straightened out. :-( Beau "Beau" wrote: > Jamand, thanks for your information and help. > I followed your procedure but was wondering something. > I moved the contents of the SoftwareDistribution folder to an external drive > just to be safe.

Guest jamand Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Hi! Well guess what - it worked for me for TWO DAYS - no problems - DAY THREE - back it came again trying to install this damn update - I have written to Microsoft via email and got a reply from some so called 'EXPERT' - and guess what - the reply contained information about XP not Vista. They didn't even read the mail properly. What hope have we got of resolving when they can't even read the content of the mail. Really sorry guys - thought we had sorted it - alas, we are in the hands of the Microsoft minions to resolve it - don't hold your breath.

Guest Beau Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Jamand, I also just got an e-mail from MS giving detailed instructions on how to fix this problem. I don't know if it works but I will post a new topic here in a few minutes with a copy of it. Beau "jamand" wrote: > Hi!

Guest jamand Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Has someone at Microsoft sorted this KB935807 update - will not install problem now then - Mine seems to be OK for the moment - seemed to install itself in the background this morning and is now reporting as install successful.

Guest Beau Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Same here Jamand. I've been working with a MS tech support person and even his complex procedures dont' fix it. I just told him I was burned out on it and don't want to continue and that I thought MS needs to pull any corrupted updates until they are fully tested. Several of my local friends with XP have the same problems and have turned update off.

Guest jamand Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Me too - switched off update completely - so much for Microsofts claim that it is the most secure Windows Operating system to date - so secure it doesn't even let it's own updates work.
