Thanks a lot!
I was searching around for some help regarding that issue.
- I had no virus when I scanned 3 times with Malwarebytes.
- I tried all about what have been told regarding the services setting given by Microsoft's employees themselves.
But, guess what? They forgot about giving me that little information you gave me :
"Windows Modules Installer - Manual"
Now I feel a bit stupid because I was the one who disabled some of those services.
Well, I didn't wanted to do the same thing that I had to do with other : Cleaning behind Microsoft Windows which left heavy useless data all around the Hard Drive.
But, now, I need SP2 (I didn't knew I had only SP1.) to install some new stuff I bought.
Well, anyway! Thanks!
Now I need to wait a couple of hours for the update (46 "important" updates and 8 minors) to finish and manually clean things a bit behind.
