Re: Double lsiting of "Optional" updates - Why?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Yes, I made a mistake with the dates and sequence, you are right.
Assuming that there is nothing wrong now with leaving these there, any objections to that, or any adverse future outcome? Or should I uninstall all of them and reinstall it once?
Please advise.

The list indicates that the first "Successful" installation was on
2/16/2008, and the second also "Successful" installation was two
days later on 2/12/2008.

Why the installation twice?

I'm confused by the description...
Your time travels faster than mine and in reverse...

"... first ... on 2/16/2008 ..." then "... two days later on 2/12/2008 ..."
Four days difference, in reverse. Not two days forward.

Have you misread or misquoted something?

Those could be manually installed by the way. It is possibly you (or anyone else who utilizes the computer - if anyone) could have installed it, and installed it again. Those are also *optional* updates - so you would have to initate the install I am pretty sure.
