Windows Updates fails configuring

<< < (5/5)

Shane:
Those are the correct files that should be there. After doing updates there will be a pending.xml file there and then after updates are done windows removes that file.

Anything in the event viewer right after the updates fail that gives any info?

Hi Shane

this time the updates did not even install, the install dialogue ran for about and hour on 0%, during that time three errors came up in Event Viewer,

they are attached.

Cheers

Dll files crashing, security tokens failing.

TiWorker is the exe that installs the updates and does the work. When it is trying it is crashing and the dll file is causing the crash.

So lets check that dll. Do a search on your whole drive for the file so we find every copy on the system. Then post a screen shot of the search results.

here is a screen shot of the files on my windows 8.1 system.

See if you have any extras.

Hi Shane

I really hope you are not going to be too upset with me but my PC started to have all sorts of problems, Windows Live Mail
was freezing, a program that runs Opditracker, a CD/DVD storage management program  stopped working and when I tried to start it
I got a message that Dot Net 1.1 needed to be installed, and other problems I figured I had malware of some sort, in spite of the fact that
ESET and Kaspersky Startup disk scan gave the PC a clean bill of health so I formatted and reinstalled the OS.

Thanks for your excellent help and programs.

Regards

savey

Not upset at all, sometimes a reinstall is the fastest and best fix :-)
