Whats going on with Patch tuesday

This is the Second Patch tuesday I can't Update, it checks them fine but of 7 uodates today, I was unable to install all but one. Is anyone else having problems with updates.

 

No issues with WU. Any error messages? What didn't install?

 

No problems here. Three (3) Windows XP Pro 32 bit PC's.

 

Win 7 32bit this is what I have.

 

This may be worth a shot.

Been there done that and it does not work.If I recall this all started after the windows Update agent 7.6 19th of june 2012.

 

I have encountered these errors frequently (although not on every update). One way to solve the problem, which has always worked for me, is described here:

Alternatives:

- Use the solution described in http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20858

- Restore a backup image of the system partition (may not work if the image has the same problem).

 

Thanks but did not work either.correction problem solved.I went back as suggested reset command prompt and it worked the second time I tried.I may have did it wrong on the first go.Thank you stapp you saved the day.

 

Never mind, irrelevant now.

 

Good show, stapp!
I read in someone's sig (I think it was) the other day, that when their computer breaks, they let Wilders fix it.
Man, there is a lot of truth in that statement.

 

I had to follow stapp suggestions on another system as well. Let see what happen on next update.

Thanks for all the help guys much appreciated, I feel better now.

 

Thats because you wilders memebers are very smart and provide good information.

 

I'm not having trouble installing the updates, but it seems that KB2691442 prevents me from executing any programs in W7 after restarting! When I try to open any program it gives a permissions error (I don't have the exact message, but re-installing it will reproduce it). Luckily I was able to remove the update, restart and things are back to normal.

Any ideas?

 

No problems here either.
But this update really took TONS of time to install and i was in a hurry . . .

 

Same here.

 

'All's well that ends well' as the bard sayeth....

But, should an issue occur again and all else fails, or you wish to do .NET updates, then may I recommend manual download of the updates by visiting the M$ update site and installing off line.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/security.aspx?q=security update

I have to do that with my daughters 2nd hand laptop for some bizarre reason [yes tied the usual fixes], but off line works fine.

In fact I would not touch a .NET update other than off line from the downloaded .exe

There's always hope.

That was the problem! Updated both OA and EAM, reinstalled the security update, restarted and all works just fine. Thanks stapp!

 

hi
i have the same problem

may i know wich command line did you use?
thanks

 

@ Mantra, Sorry I have kinda forgotten about this thread until today with the re-occuring issues of failed updates.How I fixed it was from the windows seven forum directions. right click on command prompt and run as admin and then copy and paste this. fsutil resource setautoreset true C: enter. This has resolved my issues two times now, but the question remains of whats causing it.


However,After doing some searching, I have found a hotfix windows readiness tool that checks for file data and registry inconsistencies that may prevent updates.I will not know if the hotfix works until next patch tuesday.

 

This problem has been reported in this forum in the past. I have had it for years, but it doesn´t occur in every update. The hotfix has also been reported before, http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20858.
