No, it didn't work for me. The manually installed update installs OK but
when I click on "Check for updates" it reports 1 update waiting. On further
examination I find that for some reason this update was also reported as
attempted to be installed but failed with this error:
0x800f0826 CBS_E_PENDING_VICTIM Package failed to install because another
pended package failed.
which is curious since it was the only package pending.
Clearly there are problems with KB935807 as many users cannot install it and
I am sick of wasting time trying to get it to work. I opened a case with
Microsoft support 3 days ago and have not had any reply even though they
promise a 24-hour turnaround. Not impressed.
