Good - all fixed now :)
Windows will do its own cleanup after a while - if not simply delete the entire C:\Windows\Temp\CheckSur folder
You can also delete the downloaded files and the extracted folders.
If we're lucky, Windows Updates should work properly now - if not, what exact error message do you get?
Good news and bad news.
Good news - all system updates now go through
Bad news - one is now causing my PC to not boot.
After installation, I rebooted but it blue screened and dropped into System Repair. A system restore got me back and, through trial and error (and a lot of reboots and some further system restores) I've found the issue to be the Microsoft Security Update KB2930275. If I install that bad boy my system will no longer boot.
Is there any chance the work you've done has caused this or is it coincidence? Any idea where I go now to get this one fixed?
David.
Anybody have any thoughts on this or is hiding the update the way to go?
David.
I'm going to take a flying guess here and say that Norton is involved somewhere...
KB2930275 - MS14-015 - Did anyone has issues? | Symantec Connect Community
Sadly not, don't use Norton, or indeed any other anti-virus so it's not that.
David.
I knew I'd get askedIt's only used by me and I've *very* careful about security. I run ad-hoc scans just to make 100% sure but they're always clean - however, I'll do one tonight to make sure.
David.
Sorry for the delay in responding. You see, I was wrong. Had a malware infection. All cleaned up and I've learnt my lesson - anti-virus remains installed from now on.
However, that KB installation is STILL causing the same problem. Any one have any further ideas on what it could be?
David.
Run another SFC and CheckSUR, then post the logs, together with the windowsupdate.log and we'll have another look.
