Good morning everyone, I see there are many people who seem to be having a problem similar to mine, though I was unable to find an answer to one of my questions in this post. <u>Description of problem</u>: Although my Windows Update is set to download & install any updates during the overnight hours each day, the latest updates, KB26333880, KB2572073, and KB2518864 were not installed. I went to the Windows Update site to check my update history. It showed the green/white checkmarks beside all 3 updates. The record also showed the updates were attempted 3 times overnight.

I was notified (install shield ICON next to time) that 3 Windows XP updates were available for installation. I clicked the install shield ICON and the three updates were installed without a problem. A little later I was notified that (what I thought ) were additional updates to be installed. I clicked the install shield next to the time and started the updates---the updates turned out to be the same ones installed earlier. I next decided to go to Start>All Programs>Windows Update and see if the updates were recorded as being installed on my system--they were...in fact, they were recorded as being installed at three different times. My Question - How …

Keep getting update notifications for KB2572073, KB2633880, and KB2518864. These had previously been updated successfully, and even after reinstalling today, they keep coming up. Tried to fun Fixit # 910339 ( <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910339" target="_blank">http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910339</a>) as suggested by others, but kept getting error message when trying to download Fixit. Ran Fixit #50202 to reset Windows update components, but that didn't solve the problem. I quick internet search shows that these same KB updates are causing problems for others as well with today's date. Although these issues happen all the time, it s…

I have followed several threads on this . I do not get error messages. I have uninstalled all .NET framework that the pc would allow, as instructed. I have run MS fix it tool. Not sorted the problem. I have run CClean on "find and fix registry problems". It stated "found and fixed all". I have rebooted and run MS update which ran 1 update and then the same three updates are still appearing! If I never connect this pc to the internet again will these be a problem? (i.e. just use the pc for music editing). This kind of problem may not be only with these updates but many many many others and for years!! Come on MS why do we sent error reports…

I'm having some issues with the Set Associations feature, located in the Default Programs section of the Control Panel. There are a number of file types/protocals that are set up to be opened with the wrong programs by default. When I go to change the program, the browse option doesn't let me choose the program I want. One of the files that I'm having this problem with is the .docx file. I want to set up to make Microsoft Word the default program, but it keeps recommending Microsoft Word Viewer and won't let me select Microsoft Word from my computer. I know this isn't a major problem and that the files can be opened by Word using other methods. It's just annoying an…
