Hi

 

I keep trying to upload this update but it repeatedly fails with this error

code. Has anyone got any ideas how to solve this, or alternatively, do you

have a view as to whether is really matters and make it vanish if not?

 

thanks

Gavin.

Please always state what OS you're using as it does make a difference -

 

Try a manual installation of the update - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938194

 

You can check which updates are installed on your computer by -

Start button || Control Panel || Programs

Under Programs and Features - click View installed updates.

 

If it doesn't work try renaming the SoftwareDistribution folder (Vista) -

1. Stop the Windows Update service (make sure you are logged on as an Administrator)

 

Start button || Control Panel ||System and Maintenance ||Administrative Tools

Double-click Services

(Provide the Administrator password or confirmation if prompted to do so.)

Right-click the Windows Update service and click Stop.

 

2. Click Start, type %windir% in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.

 

Locate and rename the SoftwareDistribution folder.

 

3. Start the Windows Update service

 

Start button || Control Panel ||System and Maintenance ||Administrative Tools

Double-click Services

(Provide the Administrator password or confirmation if prompted to do so.)

Right-click the Windows Update service and click Start.

 

This procedure will erase your history on the Windows Update Site. Not important.
