Edit: I'm half-tempted to system restore to this date and see if it changes anything
OK - now we have to get dirty :)
What AV is installed? What other security software is also installed?
What other AV's have EVER been installed on this machine??
Please try installing the updates again using a clean boot procedure...
How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista
My AV is MSE, with MalwareBytes trial as anti-Malware
I used to have AVG, McAfee and Spybot S&D, but removed them under recommendations by this forum
Still not installing after clean boot
Should I re-enable the services now?
Yep - no point in keeping them switched off.
When you uninstalled AVG and McAfee, did you also run their cleanup tools?
If not, read on..
Download the AVGRemover from here (there are a number of versions - you'll have to pick which one seems right!)
http://www.avg.com/us-en/utilities
Follow theinstructions for running it, and then reboot the machine (whether it asks forit or not, and whether the program rebooted already or not).
Download theMcAfee removal tool from:
http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe
Click Save, andsave the file to a folder on your computer.
Navigate to thefolder where you saved the file.
right-click onMCPR.exe and select 'Run as Administrator' to run the removal tool.
when complete,reboot.
then open an Elevated Command Prompt, and run the following command..
NETSH WINSOCK RESET
Close the prompt, and reboot again - then try installing the update again - what happens now? does the error message change?
I used the remove tools back when having BSOD problems
Edit: command promt doesn't change anything
Can't I just sit out this update?
