Error 80246005

My computer crashed while I was checking my concentric.net email, "recovered
from a serious error", which I dutifully reported. The result was an
"unknown driver error". So, I went to the msn site to scan for updates,
found one, tried to install, and failed for some unknown reason, error
#80246005. I have no idea what this means, I looked in the troubleshooting
thingy, and this error wasn't even in the list. Anybody? Help? Yikes?

The instructions mention the DataStorage folder.........this should be
DataStore, not DataStorage.

I think that may have done the trick! We'll see, but thanks for the help.

You're welcome for the help :-)

I didn't reply earlier because I've been at work where we have no internet
access :-( Let me know whether it did the trick or not.

Hi Kaylene,

Yes, I've seen where you have posted that fix on numerous occasions, and it
seems to have fixed that error for many persons.

Also fixed my problem when the auto downloads for updates didn't work on my
computer. Don't know if it was coincidental or not but the auto updates are
working again.

Anyway, hope you have a good day/evening, I'll fix the error in my typing
when I get home tonight. I've been working on updating my notes and
correcting typos over the last few days.

Keep up the good work.
