Guest TonyS. Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 I have recently had to re-install (update only not clean install) my Windows XP SP2 PC. I have turned on Automatic updates and got offered 79 critical updates. I followed the process and let XP install all of the updates. Quite a few of the updates (about 20) were reported as not install. After reboot and the completion of the update install for those that reported as installing OK I again selected the remaining updates. The process repeated with most but not all of the remaining ones being installed. I again rebooted and repeated the procedure for the remainder. However at the end of the last lot Windows Update proposes all of the updates for installation again. I went to the MS update site and had it scan and propose what needed to be updated. This also suggested a very large list (I assume the same 79 as originally). I let it install/attempt from there but that has not helped. I am now getting offered all 79 updates again. Can anyone suggest how I can fix this. I know I could just tell Live Update to ignore these but I am not sure if they have actually installed correctly or not. Cheers TonyS. The updates offered are as follows Security Update for Windows XP (KB896423) Security Update for Windows Media Player 6.4 (KB925398) Update for Windows XP (KB936357) Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP (KB933566) Security Update for Windows XP (KB935840) Security Update for Windows XP (KB935839) Update for Windows XP (KB927891) Security Update for Windows XP (KB890046) Security Update for Windows XP (KB920213) Update for Windows XP (KB930916) Update for Windows Media Format 11 SDK for Windows XP (KB929399) Security Update for Windows XP (KB931784) Security Update for Windows XP (KB930178) Security Update for Windows XP (KB931261) Windows Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows XP Security Update for Windows XP (KB932168) Security Update for Windows XP (KB925902) Security Update for Windows XP (KB928255) Security Update for Windows XP (KB928843) Security Update for Windows XP (KB927802) Security Update for Windows XP (KB924667) Security Update for Windows XP (KB927779) Security Update for Windows XP (KB918118) Security Update for Windows XP (KB926436) February 2007 CardSpace Update for Windows XP (KB925720) Update for Windows XP (KB931836) Security Update for Windows XP (KB929969) Security Update for Windows XP (KB923980) Security Update for Windows XP (KB926255) Security Update for Windows XP (KB924270) Security Update for Windows XP (KB923414) Security Update for Windows XP (KB924496) Security Update for Windows XP (KB923191) Security Update for Windows XP (KB924191) Security Update for Windows XP (KB922819) Update for Windows XP (KB922582) Update for Windows XP (KB916595) Security Update for Windows XP (KB919007) Security Update for Windows XP (KB920685) Update for Windows XP (KB920872) Security Update for Windows XP (KB920670) Security Update for Windows XP (KB920683) Security Update for Outlook Express for Windows XP (KB920214) Security Update for Windows XP (KB914388) Security Update for Windows XP (KB911280) Security Update for Windows XP (KB914389) Security Update for Windows XP (KB917344) Security Update for Windows XP (KB918439) Security Update for Windows XP (KB913580) Security Update for Windows XP (KB917953) Update for Windows XP (KB900485) Security Update for Windows XP (KB908531) Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express for Windows XP (KB911567) Security Update for Windows XP (KB911562) Security Update for Windows XP (KB911927) Security Update for Windows Media Player Plug-in (KB911564) Security Update for Windows XP (KB908519) Update for Windows XP (KB910437) Security Update for Windows XP (KB904706) Security Update for Windows XP (KB905749) Security Update for Windows XP (KB900725) Security Update for Windows XP (KB902400) Security Update for Windows XP (KB901017) Security Update for Windows XP (KB905414) Security Update for Windows XP (KB893756) Security Update for Windows XP (KB899591) Security Update for Windows XP (KB899587) Update for Windows XP (KB894391) Security Update for Windows XP (KB896358) Security Update for Windows XP (KB890859) Security Update for Windows XP (KB901214) Security Update for Windows XP (KB896428) Security Update for Windows XP (KB885835) Security Update for Windows XP (KB888302) Security Update for Windows Messenger (KB887472) Security Update for Windows XP (KB891781) Security Update for Windows XP (KB873339) Critical Update for Windows XP (KB886185) Security Update for Windows XP (KB885836)
Guest Bill Meyer Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Hi Tony I have that problem with one update only and the MS crew is working on a solution but as yet they haven't found it. In my case it is only 1 update and a lot of people had this same problem. I don't know if it is the same problem you are having though. Just figured I'd give you some type of answer. -- Have A Great Day Bill Meyer

I found a reference to a similar problem that referred to using a Microsoft "Windows Installer CleanUp utility". It suggested uninstalling .Net Framework (of which I have versions 1, 2, & 3 plus several updates and patches) then running the utility to remove references to the .Net framework. This was useless as it only appears to remove the entries in the installed software list, which were removed by the uninstall anyway. However this screwed up my software that used the .NET software which even reinstalling has not fixed. So at the moment status is SNAFU. Cheers TonyS. PS. Attackmeister. My situation was reinstall of Windows XP (my install CD included SP2). I didn't remove SP2 on its own. Does that make a difference?
Guest Tony Strazzeri Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Had success with this. I re-registered the Windows update dll as suggested by the following post from http://forums.vnunet.com/message.jspa?messageID=870658 Try re-registering the windows update components. This may help fix a corrupt installer 1. Click on Start and Run, 2. Type "REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL" (without quotation marks) and press Enter. 3. Should get the message "DllRegisterServer in WUAPI.DLL succeeded" Click OK. 4. Repeat above for each of the following: REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL REGSVR32 ATL.DLL REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL 5. Reboot Now try to install your updates. http://forums.vnunet.com/message.jspa?messageID=870658
