For some reason I cannot download any updates to my computer even when I go

to the website to try to download them I allways get the same message. "The

following updates were not installed" These are the updates

 

Security Update for Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP (KB936782)

Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB936181)

Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP (KB938127)

Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP (KB937143)

Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - August 2007 (KB890830)

Security Update for Windows XP (KB938829)

Security Update for Windows XP (KB921503)

Update for Windows XP (KB938828)

Security Update for Windows XP (KB936021)

 

When I go to the website and they fail I try to go to the update history and

I can't find any. Can anyone help me please??

Randy,

 

If the error message states that " The following updates were not

installed " it means that they *were* download to the system but some

*thing* is preventing their installation.

 

Go to Start > Run > type in [or copy&paste the below]

 

%windir%\windowsupdate.log

 

Click OK

Please post the last 50 or so lines of the log into your reply.

I have just tried the suggestion below, recommended by Bob ((leanin'

cedar)

in a previous email on this site (see Joe Medford - 8.10.07) - it worked.

 

1. Click on Start and then click Run,

2. In the open field type "REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL" (without quotation marks) and

press Enter.

3. When you receive the "DllRegisterServer in WUAPI.DLL succeeded" message,

click OK.

4. Please repeat these steps for each of the following commands:

REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL

REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL

REGSVR32 ATL.DLL

REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL

REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL

REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL

REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL.

HTH, s

Not working: Re: "The following updates were not installed"

 

Well, I thought it worked (on my daughter's PC) but I just now logged onto it

and the same update came up again, AFTER doing the 'fix.' Any ideas why it

didn't stick or failed entirely?
