.NET security update... won't install !
in [Windows XP]
|
From: NimbUs on 8 Jul 2010 10:14 Have Windows XP SP3 (with IE7), .NET framework until version 2 installed. However, one (and only one) security update from Windows update will not install - ever, believe me I've tried multiple times for months. It's been downloaded somewhere to my local store, but the update itself fails, and the WU site keeps offering the update in question, viz. ..NET framework 1.1 SP1 Security update (KB 953297). What other .NET remated updates I have, all correctly installed according to my WU history : ..NET Fw 2.0 SP1 security (953300), ..NET Fw 2.0 SP1 (110806) Security update for .NET Fw 2.0 (928365) So what now, good people ? Can you help me sort out the mess, and does-it even matter ? Should I try to uninstall everything .NET related? I am afraid there is a prescribed order to be respected. Oh, why oh why are MS *so bad* at this update dance ! Do you think they fail the updates on purpose to try and have us buy newer, presumably better supported, OSes sooner ? TIA -- NimbUs

Forgot to add, installation of the above mentioned update fails with "Error Code: 0x667 ". For what it's worth... -- NimbUs
