Guest Sanford Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Hi. Some time ago I applied update KB931784, and it shows up in my "Add or Remove Programs List." But my computer continuously says I need to install it, and when I do, it just repeats that I need to install it. When I go to the Windows Update site itself, it too says I need to install it, and it does this no matter how many times I install it. The only way I can stop is to make this a hidden update. What is going on here? I am concerned that somehow the update is not taking. Thanks for any help. Sanford.
Guest JJChap Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 I have the exact same problem with .NET Framework, Version 1.1 Service Pack 1. "Sanford" wrote: > Hi.

Guest TaurArian [MS-MVP] Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Courtesy of "Ottmar Freudenberger" Do you remember the KB929338 install looping threads? The very same applies to KB931784 too - like *all* kernel updates BTW. So, what to do to get it fixed? Try downloading the update manually via DownloadCenter: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=eeaee4a7-485... *Save* the file to a folder your harddisk (let me call it "C:\Downloads"), do *not* execute it from within your browser. Afterwards type the following under "Run" in the Start menu: "C:\Downloads\WindowsXP-KB9231784-x86-ENU.exe" /o The parameter "/o" (o like overwriteOEM) should do the trick for you. Note the blank between the last quote sign and the parameter /o!
