Tried MS fixes for update components. No difference for me,
though they calim to have fixed something.
I notice from some of the suggestions that dllcache and msiexe are
missing from where they are assumed to be.
Where is BITS? not in my Services.msc.
I tried one fix which needed a packed file in Desktop, then use
Merge. That didn't come off either.
I suppose that all these fixes assume files are in one place while
they are actually in another?
