Recommended Posts

After the Microsoft Updates issued July 8, 9 we lost all ability to print. We

also lost our ability to restore our system to a restore point. We scan daily

for viruses, malware, etc. and scans are always clean. Is there a patch or

fix? Am ready to format HD and start from scratch.

Open Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. Make sure that the "Show

updates" box is checked toward the top right of the window.

Scroll all the way to the bottom and look for 'Windows XP - Software

Updates '

The updates will be listed in the order they were installed, by Date.

 

Which updates installed on July 8th/9th ?

 

The loss of restore points can be associated with certain

antivirus\security suites.

 

Which one is installed ?
