Guest philwil Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 I had to reinstall WinXP Home. Now autoupdates tells me there are 85 priority updates to be installed. I download them, but they fail to install every time. Can't work out why. Any help?
Guest PA Bear Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 1. First install the newly released 'standalone' version of Windows Update Agent 3.0, v7.0.6000.374 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932494 2. Now install this fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927891 NB: Windows Update/Automatic Updates started offering 927891 on 22 May-07. If "Update for [Windows XP] (KB927891)" is listed in Add/Remove Programs (make sure Show Updates box is checked), it's already installed. cf. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/927891.mspx 3. Reboot. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin DTS-L.org philwil wrote: > I had to reinstall WinXP Home.

Guest philwil Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 Thanks, I tried it and everything has now installed EXCEPT for one: Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.0 Service Pack 3 (KB930494) This still refuses to install, although it continually downloads and asks to install. I've downloaded Installer3.1 as instructed elsewhere, but it makes no difference. Any advice on this? "PA Bear" wrote: > 1.

Guest PA Bear Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 OK, you're /getting/ there. <wink> I assume you're running either WinXP Media Center Edition or Tablet Edition, Phil. You'll see many threads in this newsgroup about problems installing one or more of the recent .NET Framework updates. We have no idea why so many users are having such problems. => For official support on the problem: Start a free Windows Update support incident request: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=6527 Otherwise... => Try temporarily disabling your anti-virus and/or real-time protection provided by any anti-spyware applications (e.g., CounterSpy, Spysweeper, Spybot, AVG Anti-Spyware) and/or any third-party firewall (e.g., ZA) before attempting to install the update(s). [if you disable a third-party firewall, make CERTAIN you the Windows Firewall is enabled!] => If no joy, MS Product Support Services (PSS) has been recommending the following to resolve the problem: *Do each step, in order, for best results.* 1. Uninstall .NET Framework 1.0 SP3 via Add/Remove Programs and reboot. 2. Run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 3. Download and run the .NET Framework Cleanup Tool http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7A4EFC33-0343-4EE4-B0C4-97BD16967A09 4. Download .NET Framework 1.0 SP3, saving it to your desktop then install it manually http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=6978d761-4a92-4106-a9bc-83e78d4abc5b 5. Install 930494 either via Automatic Updates, Windows Update website (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com), or manually using the download from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=829A2C5B-11EC-4ED7-91AB-6961034147BC Let us know how you make out. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin DTS-L.org philwil wrote: > Thanks, I tried it and everything has now installed EXCEPT for one: > Security > Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.0 Service Pack 3 (KB930494) > This still refuses to install, although it continually downloads and asks > to > install.

Guest CBAR Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Save the following lines in a batch file and run from a command prompt You will be re registering the components of windows and microsoft update in the registry. You may also try running sfc /scannow from a command prompt to ensure all windows files are present and in correct versions. %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe iuengine.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wuapi.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wuaueng1.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wuauserv.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wups.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wuweb.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe wups2.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe cdm.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxml2r.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxml3r.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxml.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxml3.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxmlr.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe msxml2.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe qmgr.dll %windir%\system32\regsvr32.exe qmgrprxy.dll wuauclt /detectnow It's worked several times for me following windows repair installs.
