Updates at Shutdown
in [Windows XP]
|
From: rogeepete on 16 May 2010 17:46 When I shutdown, I continue to receive a choice to install a Windows Update or Shut down without the update. I choose Install and the update is installed and the computer shuts down. But every time now, I get this choice and keep installing the update. This has been happening repeatedly for a couple of weeks, it seems. I cannot get the screen where I can simply shut down. Thanks for any help Roger -- Roger

What happens if you: 1. initiate the same update 2. then reboot 3. and shut down only after this reboot ? -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)
