Running W7 Home 

 

Trying to fix my younger brothers laptop CMD prompt keeps opening in the background forcing anything to be minimized, this only happened after he let the power die whist windows was updating on the turn off screen. To try resolve the issue ive been trying to

run windows update ( both through the program and online), neither is working. The link to the program ( on the laptop) is a dead link, once clicked nothing happens. Also when i try and get it though control panel same fault. The program doesn't have its icon

next to it and when clicked nothing happens. 

 

I've tried various other advised fixes and no joy, please advise. 

 

Rick.
