KB931784 Being Reoffered

Hi,

I have just installed the new security fix KB931784 about 4 times. I
have tried installing it manually bu downloading the hotfix, and through
Windows Update. The Windows Update History tells me that the patch has
been installed successfully. And yet, the automatic downloader keeps
offering to download it afresh.

I am enclosing the KB931784 log from c:\windows if that helps.

Thanks!

Assuming you're on Windows XP SP2:

Try downloading the update manually via DownloadCenter:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...d-a9f1eae19b51

*Save* the file to a folder your harddisk (let me call it "C:\Downloads"),
do *not* execute it from within your browser.

Afterwards type the following under "Run" in the Start menu:
"C:\Downloads\WindowsXP-KB9231784-x86-ENU.exe" /o

The parameter "/o" (o like overwriteOEM) should do the trick for you.

Fine, thanks for posting back :-)
I wonder, if MS will ever get this right for the Kernel patches...

Yep, the same problem happening to me...it keep telling to install it and
says I've successfully installed. I go through the process of installing.
It's says I did it ok...and then tries to reinstall. Weird. Over and over
for two days....over and over and over and over and over.

So why don't you read the answer already posted in reply to Wigster's

Assuming you're on Windows XP SP2:

Try downloading the update manually via DownloadCenter:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...d-a9f1eae19b51

*Save* the file to a folder your harddisk (let me call it "C:\Downloads"),
do *not* execute it from within your browser.

Afterwards type the following under "Run" in the Start menu:

The parameter "/o" (o like overwriteOEM) should do the trick for you.

keep you from repeating yourself in the future...in the future...in the
