Do you use a "Registry cleaner"?

I did not know about that NG but I now have subscribed to it. There appears

to be at least some overlap between the two mentioned groups as far as

posting topics is concerned.

Thanks for your reply.

No, I do not use a Registry Cleaner.

 

I downloaded and installed WMP 11 and it works great. In fact my computer is completely free of bugs now (knock on wood).

 

With a combination of your suggestions and research by myself I've fixed everything, thanks PA Bear.

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

I don't know if this post addresses my problem. I recently installed Windows

XP SP3 afterwhich when I receive Updates & try to install them I get a

message that States "The Following Updates Were Not Installed" the listed

items are all of the new updates. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

Always begin a new thread in the appropriate newsgroup about /your/

problem(s). Thanks.

 

That being said, CrystalBall© sez...

 

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft

Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP

installation:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

 

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.

Explorer version 7 to my desktop, exited anivirus, firewall program and

Windows Defender. I then just ran the downloaded copy from my desktop, (no

need to uninstall anything) when

installed I rebooted, I then ran the KB950759 and it installed beautifully. I

might add it was the same version of Internet Explorer that I already had.

Don't ask me why it worked. LOL I was just happy it did.

Hope it helps everyone that is having trouble with this one.

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

I just bought an HP laptop from my cousin and I been redoing everything. My

system is immaculate until I tried to install (KB950759). I got anti-virus

and

firewall protection that I am confortable with. The problem is not in that

area. There

is a glitch in service pack 3 that prevents future updates from installing.

I wasn't able to install musicmatch AT ALL! So I had to REFORMAT the hard

drive

in order to get it on the computer. And so I quickly got the updates for it

before something

else went wrong. BUT HERE IS THE ANSWER: I found that uninstalling service

pack 3 from "add and remove" programs and reinstalling from windows update

can give you

another shot at it! It can correct the problem. In my case it did and it

is really the only solution that I, with my years of experience have come up

with. We all know that when we have a computer we will be frustrated. We've

all gone through it so just remember you are not alone.

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft

Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP

installation:

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

So you are saying there are no glitches in service pack 3? I think with your

1 link

you resolved the issue. I didn't know about the file that stood on its own.

WOW! Thanks for the input. As a user I do have a suggestion. Would it

be too much to ask to let the user know in advance before he clicks about

this issue so that they are not stumbling around in the dark believing that

their computer is to blame? I mean hours, even days can be wasted on

something that you'd think was not too elementary for the makers of this

software. "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote:

Did I say that? No, I was merely commenting on your claim that a glitch in

SP3 that prevents the installation of future updates.

 

If KB943144 was your fix, I must assume that you encountered the issue

because you'd done a Repair Install, a Recovery install, or a clean install

of WinXP (or upgraded to WinXP) just before you installed SP3.

No one here works for or represents Microsoft, including MS MVPs, but I hear

you. My sources tell me that this issue will be fixed later this year with

the release of new versions of Windows Update Agent and Microsoft Update

Agent, both currently in beta (one hears).

 

Meanwhile, you're welcome & thanks for your feedback.

 

PS: There are *tons* of posts in the newsgroups about this problem. In 99%

of them, KB943144 was posted as the fix. A little Google searching before

you'd posted here would have led you to them:

http://groups.google.com/groups/search?q=943144+group%3Amicrosoft.public.*&qt_s=Search

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

Hi,

 

I have the same problem as ju.c, only I cannot use the proposed solution.

 

My situation is as follows: I am preparing an unattended Windows

installation, based on the student edition downloaded from MSDNAA

(en_winxp_pro_with_sp2.iso). I slipstreamed SP3 (I used the network

install version [1], as recommended by msfn [2]) together with all

updates that can be slipstreamed [3]. Furthermore, I integrated several

other updates via SVCPACK.INF [4], including IE7.

 

After installation of this windows setup, I experienced the same error

as ju.c, but you can see that it is not an option for me to uninstall

SP3. I was wondering, could I slipstream the Express Install into my

windows source (i.e., does it also support the /s:<path> switch) and

would that solve my problem? And in case that wouldn't solve the

problem, what else could I change in the setup of my windows

installation so that update 950759 will work.

 

TIA,

Jelle Fresen

OK so far.

To the best of my knowledge, this isn't a supported procedure. I recommend you

drop IE7 and other non-slipstreamable updates from the Windows image. There are

various ways to post-install them automatically; contact me directly if you need

suggetsions.

 

(Incidentally, it would have been preferable if you had started a new thread to

describe your issue rather than following up to someone else's. Otherwise it

tends to cause confusion.)

For the record, the svcpack.inf procedure *is* in fact supported, but only for

some older updates - specifically, updates using update.exe versions earlier

than 5.4.15.0. (This seems unlikely to include any updates applicable to SP3,

but YMMV; however, it certainly doesn't include IE7.)

 

The IE7 updater is based on update.exe, but doesn't support the /integrate

switch; I can only presume that there is a good reason for this and that

bypassing the restriction via svcpack.inf is likely to result in a broken

installation.

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

I'm ju.c, original poster.

 

I've had some time to think about the KB950759 install problem and I have an idea, but my

problem is fixed, so I don't have a test system.

Because the setup does a pre-condition check it makes sense to fool the installer.

Extract the files from KB950759 then search for the same files on your computer. I wonder

if deleting the copies that have the same file names as KB950759 that are in

C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache\ and anywhere else, except \system32\ or \Program

Files\Internet Explorer\ will be the trick.

 

My fix was uninstalling SP3. That replaced IE7 files, thus the KB950759 installed OK.

 

I'd love to know what the problem was, and if this works, I'll know.

 

Good luck!

Thanks ju.c

 

So, should I uninstall SP3 then install KB950759 then reinstall SP3?

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

I uninstalled SP3, then re-installed it, then the update installed OK.

 

This is what I did:

 

1. Uninstall SP3.

2. Restart.

3. Run chkdsk.

Yes: Automatically fix file system errors.

No: Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

4. Install SP3.

5. Restart.

6. Restart again.

7. Install KB950759.

 

Good luck!

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

 

OK, I didn't read all the way through your post and I don't know if you

resolved your KB950759 issue but here is how I fixed it.

I had problem installing it on 2003 server. It would keep showing in

available auto update over and over again but it would repeatedly fail

to install. So I traced it back to KB951748 being recorded in registry

and not showing in installed updates.

 

So run regedit go to

 

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\HotFix

 

and look for KB951748. It should be pretty much the last KB entry in

the list. Delete it and reboot. After that click Auto Update

notification (yellow shield) and install KB950759. It should install

just fine and prompt you to reboot. Do it. And than scan yourself again

for latest Microsoft Updates.

 

I hope this helps

Re: Security Update for IE7 WinXP KB950759 fails to install

 

RE: "how to uninstall SP3"

 

Is it not in 'Add or Remove Programs'?

 

 

RE: "is it worth me messing around with, I don't want to have to reinstall Windows again

if I can help it"

 

Re-installing SP3 actually fixed numerous problems for me. Now everything works perfectly.

I would say it's worth it. KB950759 is an important IE security update.

Create a System Restore point before hand, just in case.
