Thx
Done the bit at the beginning (tried to uninstall KB2729029) and uninstall failed Yup done the last one and it fails update already installed Cant sensibly restore to an earlier point. I never use IE and I only need it because some other software I wanted to use requires it. I only restore points for about 4 months historically I have no idea when this PC last had IE on it. I might just have a backup somewhere but . . . . . |

I found this for uninstalling other updates-
KB2952664 won't uninstall However, the script that was used to solve the problem doesn't even have the KB the guy was trying to uninstall. I don't know if he just ran that script or modified it. |

There's all kinds of answers out there if search on it. However, I found this which might be useful-
To view the Windows Update Standalone Installer event log, follow these steps: Click Startwindows icon , type event viewer in the Start Search box, and then click Event Viewer in the Programs list. In Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, on the Start screen, type event viewer, click Settings, and then click View event logs under Settings. Notice icon If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue. In Event Viewer, expand Windows Logs, and then click Setup. Setup events appear in the middle pane. In the Actions pane, click Filter Current Log. In the Event sources list, click to select the WUSA check box, and then click OK. |

I wonder if the signature message is caused by Windows Defender. Obviously, something is preventing both the uninstall/install. You might try disabling it. I found this related to installation of Windows Defender-
New Error: 0x800b0100 - No signature was present in the subject. | PC Review |

I see that you've had this problem since 2014.
Here's another possibility- Unable to Install IE11 - Microsoft Community |

Thanks for all your suggestions but it is all taking too much time. I have given up and did a repair install last night and will let the 173 Windows updates chug on in the background. I currently have IE8 on the machine so hopefully the updates including IE11 will install OK. Hopefully this will fix everything.

Two issues: Upgrade install of W7x86 fails and W7x64 fails to clean install Clean installing W7 x86 is no problem. But 1) upgrading Vista x86 to W7 x86 fails and automatically rolls back to Vista, and 2) attempt to clean install W7 x64 results in BSOD when rebooting to finalize the process. Any suggestion would be appreciated. |
