Impossible to update, error 104 other updates are installing?

I have 2 updates waiting, but when I try install them I get following error;
Other updates are installing error 104.
But nothing else is installing anything for the moment?
Thx for the tips :-)

Which browser and version are you using when error 104 occurs?  Have you tried other browsers?  Same error code?

  • Servers where patches will not install automatically or manually, Live updates are broken and when checking installed updates shows "NO UPDATES ARE INSTALLED ON THIS COMPUTER" SFC \SCANNOW will not run

    Hello, (Bit of a long one but please read)
    We have 3 servers in same physical location and server OU etc that are exhibiting the exact same behaviors (we have server servers in this location that are not), as above theyt are all W2008 R2 SP1 and all built from the same standard
    image we use on hundreds of other computers, they have also been in production for different amounts of time and we started to see this behavior at different times with them: (Its odd they are all in the same site where there are also several other servers
    that are not effected, there must be a link ? )
    These servers are all missing several patches when checking our internal tool that reports from IBM endpoint management that we use to deliver patches (they are not all missing the exact same patches some ore or less than other), although
    SCCM (we used SCCM to deliver patches until around 6 months ago) and IBM EM are both running (some ptches hark back to the SCCM Delievry days) they are not patching and when attempting to patch manually by downloading the exact patch coresponding to the fixlet
    ID and the KB , the stanbdalone installer starts and after some time you receive an error message “The update is not applicable to yoru computer”. Windows update returns error 80070006 for all of the servers.
    it is worth noting that other applications and products also using the .MSU extension will insatll so it is not a problem with the installer service.
    The above led me to think a corrupt patch may have stopped the sequence of patching so I then looked in “Programs and Features” => “Installed updates” and this is blank for all of them returening the message:
    “NO UPDATES ARE INSTALLED ON THIS COMPUTER”.  (this I believe is a part of the fundamental issues and resolving this may resolve the patching)
    Another issue is that if you run  “SFC /SCANNOW” It starts the scan and then returns: “Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation” (Also in safe mode and both from an elevated CMD and WMI is started as a service)
    The all three are probably related so I think fixing the “SFC and NO UPDATES SHOWN” issues will resolve the first.
    The things I have tried so far are:
    Running : wmic qfe list full /format:htable > c:\updates.htm             Should produce a list of updates but instead returns :  No Instance(s) Available (this is not hopeful)
    Fix: Ran the “SYSTEM UPDATE REDINESS TOOL” from  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
    Result : Update Ran successfully but NO CHANGE
    Fix: Ran the automated and manual fix “RESET WINDOWS UPDATE COMPONENTS” here :
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058/en then undated windows update agent.
    Result : All ran successfully and NO CHANGE
    Fix: Ran MBSA
    Result : Runs successfully and then stays at “Done downloading security update information” (Log gives no obvious information)
    Fix: Renamed the software distribution folder/restarted services (Various variations of this fix online, tried a few)
    Result: Runs as described in article with new Software distribution folder being created,
    NO CHANGE
    Fix: Create/Correct the  reg key for windows trusted installer located here HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\Version (several articles relating to this and the above issues)
    Result: the existing key was correct as should be from internal system information gathered , required in article.
    Fix: Ran the “Windows update trouble-shooter”
    as here :
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/troubleshoot-problems-installing-updates#1TC=windows-7
    Result:  It detected and fixed error’s but still no change.
    The WMI Repository checks out on them all for both of the methods I know to verify “Get-wmiobject –list |measure” and ensure count is over 900 and also “C:\>winmgmt /verifyrepository” and the repository came back as “WMI Repository is consistent”. I guess
    this is not hard evidence the WMI is OK, but these are the only methods I know.
    I have also tried removing the server from its OU , running a GP Update and then rebooting and testing but to no avail (Bit of a longshot but tried to link the distinction between the three servers and the OU GP is one of them)
    I have tried a few other articles registering .Dll’s etc , but I did not take a note of links as I was at the start of this and didn’t expect it to go so long so please reply with anything you see not above im happy to try again.
    I have thought about removing SP1 and reinstalling it but this will require a major downtime and only possible if the backup files of SP1 have not been removed.
    Any help is apreciated !

    Hi,
    Please try to rebuil the WMI repository.

  • Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists

    Have CS 5 Installed on my iMac and works ok. But installed on my new MacBook Pro it won't open NEF files from my Nikon D810. Displays NEF icons, but when I try and open them the response is: Make sure latest RAW updates are installed. If problem persists follow link: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb407111. Have installed Bridge 5.0.2.4; Raw Ref Version 7.0.0.308; DNG converter_8_7_1.dmg; Bridge 5.0.2 Update 2. Also same problem with Lightroom which I don't normally use. Lightroom_3_LS11_mac_3_6.dmg installed.

    In the link you posted it states that the Nikon 810 requires ACR 8.6 or newer.
    Version of ACR are specific to versions of Photoshop. You cannot use 8.6 nor even 7.0.in CS5.
    I believe that ACR 6.7 is the latest that will work with CS5, so make sure you have this installed and get rid of ACR 7.
    Having 2 versions of ACR will cause problems.
    You have already downloaded DNG Converter 8.7.1.
    Have you double clicked the DMG file to allow you to install DNG Converter on your computer?
    Be aware that DNG converter is a stand-along application and not a plug-in.
    You need to open DNG converter at select the FOLDER that contain your .NEF files.
    Don't open the folder and try to select individual files, it doesn't work that way.
    After converting your D810 files to DNGs you can then open the DNGs in CS5
    The problem is your camera didn't exist when CS5 & its version of ACR was developed.
    i don't use Lightroom, but the list mentions Lightroom 5.6 as needed to open D819 so your 3.6 version of LR won't cut it.

  • Which file names verify Acrobat Standard 9.3.1 updates are installed?

    Without having to launch the application and look at Help and About, what is a good way to check that 9.3.1 updates are installed?
    What files would be on a PC with 9.3.1 that would not be on it if it only had 9.3.0?

    How come the file version is not changing?
    I built an AIP from 9.0.0 to 9.1.0 to 9.1.2 to 9.2.0 to 9.3.0 to 9.3.2 using all quarterly updates only.
    The install function does not work when upgrading existing installs of 9.0.0 to 9.3.2 as can be seen on this forum by other users.
    You are told to remove the existing installation manually.
    I used the work around of REINSTALLMODE=vamus within my msiexec script.  However the Acrobat.exe file details still show the version as 9.0.0 and when you open Acrobat and go to Help, About you see the current version as 9.3.2

  • How to choose when windows updates are installed

    On previous versions of Windows I always used to set updates to be installed on a Monday, 6 days after Patch Tuesday, allowing enough time for any buggy updates to get redacted so I didn't end up with a bricked system.
    I cannot find how to do this on Winodws 8.1, there doesn't seem to be any option to choose when updates are installed.

    Hi,
    You can control the schedule behavior via group policy, run gpedit.msc to launch the group policy editor
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Update\Configure Automatic Updates, then change the options as you want
    after that, run gpupdate /force to update the policy

  • My iphoto says it's open, but isn't. All updates are installed. Help????

    My iphotos says it's open, but isn't. All of my software updates are installed. Help!!!! Thanks

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

    Some one please help. I need to compelete the test task by monday.

    OMWB consists of 2 parts, the common files and a plugin. The message you get commonly means you didn't download a plugin.
    Under certain circumstances the Internet Explorer is sometimes saving JAR files with the ZIP extension and thus OMWB can't handle it as well.
    But anyway, you try to migrate a DB2 database V8 to Oracle using OMWB. There is no plugin available to use OMWB with Db2 V8.
    So you need to choose a different method like a gateway or flat files and SQL*Loader to move the data to Oracle.

    I have other office products on here including:
    SharePoint Designer 2010
    SharePoint Designer 2013
    Microsoft PowerBI Designer Preview
    and this is installed on Win 8.1 Enterprise
    Kind of stumped what is causing this... I see KB2920798  mentions this error message is now added when cant open a document due to a mix of click-to-run and MSI install for office.  I only have click to run for Office 2013 and the MSIs are only for
    addons in excel (power query) and the additional Microsoft Software...
    Anyone have ideas what is causing this and how to resolve?
    I just finished applying March 2015 C2R updated on Office and the same issue recurred.  This time I simply rebooted and it resolved.  My best guess is it has something to do with a locked file that can't be updated but the Office Update installer
    doesn't prompt to reboot.

    I have the same problem. But I have Czech versions of the Word and OneDrive for Business ("OneDrive pro firmy").
    I do not have the SharePoint Designer nor update KB2020798. I received KB2920746

  • Not sure updates from HP Update are installing correctly

    Ever since I purchased my HP Officejet Pro 8620 in late November, I've been having issues installing updates.
    I installed the drivers using an Administrator account; however, my day-to-day user account is not a member of the Administrators group.
    Every few days, the UP Update app notifier appears on my screen. When I press Continue, the HP Update app loads. When I press the Next button the update downloads. Immediately after it downloads, I'm prompted for my PC's Administrator credentials. After I enter my credentials, the status immediately changes to "Installation failed" and the following message appears: "We noticed you had a problem with an update. Click here for an option to manually download and install or click 'Finish' to exit."
    When I manually download and run the update, I'm prompted for my credentials but then nothing appears to happen. The download page says "In most cases, you will not see any message when the installation has finished." That appears to be the case here. However, within a few days, the update notifier appears again. So it would appear that the updates are not installing correctly.
    Any suggestions on how to proceed?

  • How to Quickly Determine Whether or not Specific Hotfixes or Updates are Installed?

    I have a handful of applications that require specific hotfixes or updates to be installed.  An excellent example of this is Internet Explorer 11 which has
    9 prerequisites. (well only 6 are required, the remaining 3 prerequisites provide a better experience.)
    Is there a reliable & fast way of checking for whether or not a specific hotfix and/or patch/update has been installed? 
    I am aware of `wmic qfe` but
    According to
    this, it will only "retrieve updates for Windows OS itself and its components (such as Windows Internet Explorer (IE) or Windows Server roles and features)"
    Even if I'm checking for just 1 hotifx, it takes roughly 6 seconds to retrieve that information.  When we're checking for dozen or two hotfixid's that quickly adds up. `Measure-Command {wmic qfe where "hotfixid='kb982018'"}`  So
    for IE11, we're looking at nearly 1 minute of waiting.  Nonsense.
    Note: I'm not asking "is my system patched?" nor am I asking for a report of installed patches.  I could use WSUS, SCCM, MBSA and a multitude of other solutions for that.  I need something scriptable that will install a specific prerequisite
    at runtime, so I'm looking for a batch/vbscript/powershell solution that'll be quick, like 1 second quick, not 5+ per KB.

    Thanks.  I'm no expert.  I don't have a slew of characters before or after my name.  This isn't an I'm right/you're wrong situation.  I don't claim to know everything - just trying to mitigate the questions I know I'm going to be asked.
    Prior to posting, I saw
    your post here (which is great I might add) which works, and it will work for determining whether or not a machine has a specific update/hotfix installed.  But it consistently took 6 seconds to retrieve a single result on our assets.  This
    was on a Core i7 with 8GB and an SSD running Windows 8.1 Pro.  This doesn't bode well for our day-to-day systems which are Core 2 Duo's with 4GB and spindle disks.  Unless my math is wrong, if I'm checking for all 6 possible required IE11 prereqs
    thats 36 seconds of wait time just for WMI queries.  I'm just shocked it takes so long which made me wonder whether or not there was a faster retrieval method.
    Why would I think there's a faster method?  The closest example I can think of might be a software install.  Sure, I can query WMI, but that too takes a while.  But I could a
    `reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{product code}` or `reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox 29.0.1 (x86 en-US)`
    then check errorlevel to determine if the product was installed, right?  Or take it a step further & check the `/v Version` to make sure it matches what I expect it to be, right?   We don't have fancy tools here like Altiris or SCCM
    :(  Reg query just appears to be significantly faster than wmic/gwmi in that specific scenario.  That gave me hope there
    might be a faster option for checking for installed updates & hotfixes.
    IE11
    tries to install the proper prerequisites.  If that fails, they'll have to be done manually. 
    And it just so happens that the IE11 install
    does fail in our environment when we don't install the manually.  Fortunately we're not ready to deploy IE11, so there's no rush to push IE11.  I was merely using IE11 as an example because by virtue of the articles existence, this
    is a possible real-world scenario.  If I know that we can safely regression test the 6 patches for IE11, and just have it be an optional installation for the users that want or need it, then I can add the prerequisite logic to the script to help ensure
    a successful installation.  Again, an IE11 deployment isn't the goal here.  IE11 is just the example.

  • How can I tell which Apple Security Updates are installed?

    While troubleshooting a printer issue, I installed some 'Extra' printer profiles from my OS 10.6 Install DVD. After which, I got a dialog box from the Installer saying that I may have replaced some newer items with older ones, and it suggested I run the latest OS "Combo" installer. Which I did, even tho Software Update said I was up-to-date.
    But apparently, when I ran the "Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1" -- it downgraded some of my Apple software to older versions. For example, I know for sure Safari was at 5.1.2 before I ran the Combo, and it's now at 5.0.5. Yet Software Update is not telling me about v.5.1.2, which it shows as already being installed (at a date prior to me running the Combo updater).
    So my question is:
    What other software might have been downgraded by the 10.6.8 Combo v1.1 -- and if Software Update thinks I running the current versions, how am I going to find out for sure?
    Obviously, I can check version numbers of my installed Apple software like iTunes and Aperture against the latest updates available at Apple Downloads, but I don't know how to check on background files like Security Updates, Java, etc.
    I am particularly concerned that I am running the latest Security Updates.
    Thanking you in advance,
    - gw

    steve626 said:
    "... There you will be able to see if a more recent version of Safari, etc. was replaced with an older version."
    Not exactly. That screen shows my most recent Safari update was 5.1.2 on 12/16/11 -- then it shows the Mac OS X Update Combined was installed on 1/2/12. That's when my Safari got downgraded to 5.0.5, but that detail is missing from the Installed Updates preference pane.
    It looks like once an update gets installed, Software Update remembers that -- but does not take the newer update off the list if an older version replaces it???
    So, even though I see Security Update 2011-006 was installed on 10/21/11, I'm not sure if the OS Combo Update replaced any security items with older bits. Is there anything specific to security updates that I might be able to check?

  • Applications keep freezing after updates are installed...

    My MacBook (Santa Rosa model) cannot seem to run any applications with out having them freeze every few clicks. It happened after updating from 10.5 to 10.5.6, with quite a few other updates installed at the same time as well. This happens to pretty much every application I run. What should I do?

    Try downloading the Mac OS X 10.5.6 combo updater and install it.

  • You tube video's are suddenly downloading as Quicktime movies instead of FLV's. Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it? Quicktime won't play the files. I use safari and snow leopard and all updates are installed. JulieS

    Is anyone else having this problem and how to fix it?

    There are no preferences for Quicktime 10, only for QT 7.
    Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
    Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link  even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
    (Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)
    For anything like Flash videos you should use QT 7.

  • How can I tell if updates are installed?

    When I run the "Compliance 5 - Specific computer" report against a computer, it generates a couple pages of updates, but in the "Installed" column it just shows an asterisk * in each row within the column. 
    What does the asterisk mean? 
    http://i.imgur.com/WJnHObK.png

    Ok thanks, I just wasn't sure if I was supposed to expect a checkbox or a "Yes/No" or something less ambiguous. * to me is a wildcard so I wanted to make sure what it meant in this context. 
    Thanks for the clarification.
