Hi .Can anyone tell me if it is possible to Rollback (undo) the Downloaded
Automatic Updates that have been installed on my computer.
I would like to find the offending download from Microsoft that I am now
totally convinced has put my operating System out of wack.
I would like to be able to go from the most recent download and remove
them
one at a time until I find the offender.
I have found that my System Restore no longer works properly , ie most of
the old Restore Points no longer exist and when I do find a valid point I
get
a message saying like "Failed to Restore".
I also get Internet Explorer Script Errors in most programs EVEN WHEN I'M
NOT ON THE INTERNET.
And yes I have tried some of the other remedies proposed to others with
the
same problems in the Knowledge Browser strings.
And yes I have had my system thoroughly scanned for Viruses etc with my
own
installed software and Online scans by others and found to be clean.
Failing a successfull remedy by this forum I may be forced to Re-format my
HD and re-instal the software and then block all Automatic Updates from
Microsoft.
System Details are:- Windows OS XP Professional with all the latest
Updates
& Patches.
Internet Explorer:-Version 7.0.5730.11
Also have the Windows Security Centre with latest updates.
Regards ironbark


ironbark:
You can, of course, try the suggestions Shenan provided you with info on how
to remove from your system one or more Windows updates that you think might
have caused your problem. But I really wonder - based on all the info you
provided in your query - as to whether that's the root cause of the problems
you're experiencing.

It seems to me that a Repair install of the OS might be called for at this
point. Have you considered that approach and are you familiar with that
technique?
