Any ideas on how I can get Windows XP updates to install? Friday, November 15, PM. It's fine quoting kb refs but they don't always work!
Wednesday, December 25, PM. This was an old Celeron from or earlier. Food for though, imagine how many XP machines are out there are having this exact problem, rendering the computer unusable. To warwagon, my Dell computer is over 9 years old July and the XP update workaround worked successfully for me. I had this problem for a while, but not on XP on Windows 7. All fixed now, i just disabled a service in the Task Manager Unable to think which one sorry.
Hi I just wanted to say, at our factory we have a bunch of machines using XP. We will continue to be using XP after April '14 and I have been repairing some of our old machines just to be used for basic terminals. Anyway this bug was driving me crazy to be honest. I had all the updates but this one I almost gave up until I found something that solved it. By clicking wganotifypackageinner. Not by using wgasetup. Can you maybe detail this a bit more? My WU is now also stuck at trying to finalize the installation of WGA - right at "running processes after install" it just hangs there.
Are you saying you let it hang there and ran wganotifypackageinner. Or did you reboot, ran wganotifypackageinner. I did not use the windows update method otherwise you will be hung. You will also hang if you run the above KB manually and click next to continue. When you first run it, it will extract the installation into the temporary directory.
So do it on a reboot, if you are hung you have to kill a few tasks in your task manager including the KB install executable. So yes I ran the wganotifypackaginner manually do not use the other one or it will get stuck on the 'running processes after install'. When I ran the wganotifypackaginner it does the installation without hanging, you do not need to use the windows update at all for this method. I noticed almost immediately the installer got by the hang part and began doing the proper installation right away.
This has been happening for years, I'm not surprised. I tried updating Server with SP2 to the latest updates with IE6 installed and it took over 52 hours for it to find the updates to install After installing all those updates it is much faster, it had to create the database of what it had versus the windows update location similar to what SCCM Server does but much slower of course.
Is there a program similar to nlite that downloads all patches and integrates them with your installation media? I think it has something to do with windows installer 4. Like that it doesn't include this fix. Maybe the reason that we all have this problem is because we all used the same update packs that included installer 4.
By observing the network icon in the system tray, nothing much is happening; it flashes briefly just once or twice every minute.
I haven't used any special tool to monitor traffic, though. Incidentally, I seem to have fixed it on the PC at hand. I let Microsoft Update search for updates once again, and then inspected WindowsUpdate. After rebooting the machine, Microsoft Update gave me the list of updates to install in less than a minute. It's now installing update 57 of One problem: on attempting to install the May cumulative rollup for.
Net Framework 3. This causes the SoftwareDistribution folder to become corrupt once again. Luckily, the same fix delete entire SoftwareDistribution folder fixes it.
According to an entry in Event Viewer, the update doesn't apply to my PC. But why would it have to trigger an automatic reboot? This sounds like the HDD is getting reset before all data is written. You might want to disable write caching when doing these updates. I was able to delete windows installer 4. I'll let you know. I am curious about. Microsoft update forced me to install msiexec.
I have the solution. I figured out how to fix it. This only solves the problem with XP and office With the compatibility pack. This does not fix other installs. There is an Actual update order.
I know it sounds totally ridiculous but its true. The problem is not the compatibility pack. It is the compatibility pack SP3. Uninstall Office Compatibility pack sp3. SP3 should be below the compatibility pack when you view all updates. For IE6 go here. IE7 is here. And IE8 is here. You would think that simply upgrading to the latest version of IE would solve the problem, but it doesn't. You have to manually download and apply the patch for your version of IE.
Will Microsoft go in and fix wuauclt. I wouldn't bet on it. Get the first word on what the important tech news really means with the InfoWorld Tech Watch blog.
