Hi Colin,

That's a shame. Can you try reinstalling IE9 please?

How do I install or uninstall Internet Explorer 9?

You could also try Option Three here: Windows Update - Reset
It has all the registry changes in one neat file.

The basic problem appears to relate to a number of similar errors....

Code:

 Line 61143: 2013-04-23 06:41:11, Error                 CSI    00000442 (F) Impactful transactions are disabled at this time, cannot continue.[gle=0x80004005]

These relates to the following error

Code:

2013-04-23 06:56:32, Info                  CBS    Startup: Package: Package_for_KB2661254~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.3 completed startup processing, new state: Staged, original: Staged, targeted: Installed.  hr = 0x80071a90

It looks to me as if the installation of that update was interrupted during the reboot, and the pending.xml file deleted in error.

Can you check the Installed Updates listing and see if KB2661254 is listed? If so, please attempt to uninstall it.
What happens?
