Windows 7: Awful Experience Gap

Whazzupdoc · 02 Oct 2016

It went smoothly. Both 0369 and 2605 are verified updates.

Problem occurred when I initiated another update after I changed the setting back to 'Automatic'. I've got the snippet for you. Please tell me how to correct this unidentified error.

Thanks!

Hi,
Except it's 10-2-16 not November yet :)

Restart the machine do (7) to reset the update system
Then (6) to check for updates,

Like you said...Ouch! I haven't touched date/time so that one's a mystery. I've corrected it and will try the Update again. Hope that didn't screw up the 0369 and 2605 effort.

Hi,
I doubt you did manually installing an update might not care
Each update would give an error if it did not install
The second would ask to restart to finish installing but the first wouldn't.

Bad news! The latest Update of record shows as 11/02/16 and that is along side of every one in the two batches. I'm surprised that Windows did not catch that date error during that process. It's anyone's guess as to how that date was entered. The Win7 install was about 7 weeks ago and I really did not catch it afterwards.

Now do I uninstall all those batch updates and do this all over again? By the way, I see as I'm posting this that Windows is doing its' automatic update attempt.

Hi,
No worries use option 3 here will straighten out the listings
Windows Update - Reset

Whazzupdoc · 02 Oct 2016

Option #3...is that the KB3020369 install again?

I've just checked and both of the 2 batch files show as installed on 11/02/16 (see snippet). Then to make matters more confusing, the Auto Update is saying the 172 updates needi to be installed again...and it's sitting trying to process but nothing happening.

Whoa!!! Take that back. A quick glance and it's installing 3 of 173. I don't understand though. I thought that 2605 was to circumvent all of those back updates?
