Re: Windows update fails

Hello and welcome

Due to the precise nature of your corruption, you will receive help from a user named SleepyDude. He's one of our senior trainees here who's in his final phase of his studies and needs to gain some real world experience in specific areas of Windows Update. This means that he'll be assisting you, but that I will first need to double check and approve his fixes before he posts them to you. If anything this is a good thing for you because it means that you've got at least two of us watching over your thread, but it will unfortunately add a slight delay between each reply. I hope that you understand and can accept the need for us to train up new members in this way in order to carry on doing what we do here, however, if for any reason you object to this setup, I will happily take on your thread myself.

Thank you very much for your understanding. We'll be with you very shortly.
 
Re: Windows update fails

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

We need to know more about your system. Some questions for you.

- Do you have more than one Hard Disk drive on the machine?
- Is the system configured for dual-boot between Windows and Linux or more than one Windows installation?
 
Re: Windows update fails

Yes, forgot to mention that I have a dual boot PC. One disk with Windows and the other is for Linux (Ubuntu). In the boot menu I can also see two entries for Windows.

Rgds, Göran
 
Re: Windows update fails

Hi,

The boot menu is controlled by GRUB?
 
Hi,

Can you disconnect the HDD containing the Linux, boot the machine to Windows an try to update?
 
Hi,
I disconnected the Linux disk and the updates I've had problems with (Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows) just went fine!
