automatic update weird behavior


Recommended Posts

I have win xp home, automatic updates set for auto at 3:00 am. The download

and install happens. (Proved by looking on web update history and in windows

directory) however the yellow icon w/ the exclamation point shows up in the

tray to manually install the same updates. Also most of the last several

updates show up several times as completed in both the event viewer and the

update history on Microsoft update.

 

This is very annoying. Does anyone know how to fix?

I'm using Vista Home Premium and I have the identical problem. I don't know

how to solve it, but I hope someone does!

I should not be surprised if this problem behaviour is related to the causal

factors in the "Good and not good" post of 8/29.

Never tamper with natural ignorance.
