Solved Updates Keep Reinstalling_no error

[Helium2]

Since the Windows updates today I have three updates that continually try to install.
KB 2810048, KB2760411, KB 2760588.
They are listed as "successful" in my list of updates.

When I run the "download & install" it takes about a second before Windows tries starts the installation process. There are no error msgs. but the Updates notif icon shows soon. Reboots don't help.

I ran all of your recommended applications/hotfixes. No joy.

I tried to attach my CBS.zip but got a "500 - Internal server error." message.

Now what?

Please go to these MS forum posts and add your vote to the "Me, Too" list, so that we can get some action from MS.

I don't see anything in your thread about a "me, too" option and the Microsoft site demands that I have an account with them to click their "Me, too" button.
What are you talking about?

Yes, thanks, derekimo.
Yes, one does have to register, but it only takes a minute.

However, it's a bit "moot" by now.
There are hundreds (thousands?) of posts in many threads at MS forums.
MS is aware.

AFAIK, there is no formal fix, yet.
Workaround is to verify in your list of installed updates to see that they did install, and then to hide them, for now.

Thanks!

You do not have to sign in to read any of the posts moxie posted, there are enough complaints like yours and you can see you are in the same boat

What have they done to us?

 

[GMS Group]

Security Update for Microsoft Office 2007 suites (KB2760411)
Security Update for Microsoft Office 2007 suites (KB2760588)
Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 (KB2760583)

Microsoft demands that I have a hotmail (or some other MS BS account) to sign up. :banghead:
I'm not doing that.

It appears that MS has provided a silent fix.
My list of hidden updates no longer includes those repeating updates.

I just love having to explain to my clients why they should use the "auto-download & install" option for Windows
updates after a major fiasco like this. :banghead:
