Windows update KB898461
in [Windows Update]
|
From: Bev on 27 Mar 2007 19:00 I am getting this same message. When attempting to install KB898461 it downloads but when installing it says that "An error occurred while copying file spmsg.dll. Cannot copy file to destination directory" when i tell the installer to simply carry on regardless I am then faced with the error "Setup can not copy the file spmsg.dll." It asks me where to browse to to get the file. I have read and tried all of your suggestions. Are there any other suggestions.
