Re: Unable to install ANY updates



Matt,

I don't have a problem running windows update. This runs fine and tells me
if I have any updates to install. The problem is with the install (not
download). See my reply to MowGreen. Ca get updates to install but not via
(auto) update site.

I was able to install the previous security updates via Automatic Updates
and everything was fine. I'm thinking the Windows Update is failing do to a
problem with the Automatic Updates Service.

Your thoughts?

You fail to mention if the OS is XP SP1 or SP2.
Go here for KB925486 and click the appropriate link for the SP that is
installed :
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS06-055.mspx

Save it, do not run it from it's location. Close IE.
Install it.
If it fails to install there will be a KB925486.log located in the
WINDOWS directory (folder). Open that log and copy&paste it into your
reply, please.

I can download but not install any criticals/high priority updates via

Problem: A problem on your computer is preventing updates from being

Solution: To fix the problem, try installing the updates again. If that
doesn't work, use the Troubleshooter to try solve the problem.

I tried install again but same result and the troubleshooter, if that what
it is meant to be, is of no use.

The (current) updates in question are:

KB925486 : Security Update for Windows XP and
KB915597 : Definition Update for Windows Defender (Beta)

Appreciate any help in resolving
