Installed or not?
in [Windows Update]
|
From: daveman on 11 Jun 2010 09:19 On 6/8 Vista was fully patched. On 6/9 I was notified by WU of new available updates including several security, .net, and MRT updates. I choose to download and install them then after a few minutes I was prompted to reboot to finish install. When I rebooted I got the usual message that I've seen dozens of times over the years "Windows is Finishing Installing Updates- Do not turn off your computer" All is good so far ***THEN*** After a couple of minutes I get a message that "Updates did not install correctly -removing updates" So I wait a few more minutes and WU apparently finishes Uninstalling the updates. When I finally get booted back up into Vista I opened WU "View Update History" and (for the date in question) there are 9 updates marked as "Successful" and no entry for any "Failed" ones. What gives??? If WU tried to install and then uninstalled them how does that jive with the "Update History". Are the updates truly installed or not??? Thank You
From: Peter Foldes on 11 Jun 2010 11:10 Not much to go on. Run WU again and tell us which updates it wants to install over again.
