KB971644 for Windows Vista doesn't install
in [Windows Update]
|
From: Hoane on 22 Nov 2009 06:34 Hi, The Platform Update for Windows Vista (KB971644) fails on my PC since November 18. As a concequence my PC hangs most of the time when shutting down (installing 1 of 1 updates...). When trying to install through Windows Update I get Code 80070020 (Windows Update encountered an unknown error). I tried installing the update in Safe Mode, but somehow I cannot start Windows Update in Safe Mode (nothing happens?). I also tried updating with Panda AVPro switched off: no luck. Any other suggestions? Need help! My Windows edition is 32-bit Windows Vista Home Premium with SP2. Processor is Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q8200 @2.33 GHz, 4 GB RAM. Hoane

From: MowGreen on 23 Nov 2009 14:31 Hoane, You may think that Panda has been Disabled but apparently it is not. The error code clearly indicates that " The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. " Suggest you follow the steps in the MSKB that Engel linked you to and do " Method 3: Perform a clean boot of the computer and then install the update " steps for Vista. FWIW, this is an *optional* update and " the Platform Update for Windows Vista are collections of runtime libraries that make it easy for developers to target a wider customer base. " Since there's no adequate explanation of *why* installing this update is to * your benefit *, I'd recommend Hiding and forgetting it.
