RE: KB955428 update patch for microsoft woks 8

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

ok did that and this is what happenswhen i click on the file i get a message
saying the upgrade patch cannot be installed by the windows installer
service because the program to be upgraded may be missing or the upgrade
patch may update a different version of the program. verify that the program
to be upgraded exists on
your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch.

checked and i have version 8.5 works

Laurie: Yesterday, a tip from "Sterling" did the trick for me. Like you,
Windows Update downloaded but could not install the Works8 update. Here is
what you can do; Sterling's tip that worked for me.

1. go to www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?Family
ID=458985c3-9c6f-4049-81cd-0d0389c81f11&DisplayLang=en .
2. Download the file KB955428_en-US.cab. Save this to your desktop.
(Easiest way to proceed)
3. Once you have downloaded it to your desktop, double-click the icon on
your desktop. A window will open with the file in it. Double-click that
icon and select Extract (to Desktop). Once the extraction has completed (it
is very quick and puts a new icon on your desktop), close that window and
doubler-click the new icon just extracted to your desktop.
4. When you double click tthe icon the update will install. (In my case, I
went back to the Windows Update for that install, after double-clicking .)

Download works for me, I don't know why you're having trouble downloading the
file. Perhaps it's something on your computer that is causing the problem.
Have you checked for viruses/malware etc recently.
