For the last five days, every time I shut down my computer it tells me
updates are waiting to be processed. Every time I process them & it shuts
down; but next time, it says there are 2 updates waiting to be processed
again. Is it usual to get this many updates, or is something else going on?
 
Manually check winupdates & review your update history for failed updates

That is use the program to remove the program that is not updating AKA:
net framework 1.1 and reinstall whatever is not updating, then try the
updates again

1. Close all instances of Internet Explorer.
2. Click Start and Run, type "REGSVR32 ATL.DLL" (without quotes) in the open
box and click OK.



Note: There is a space between REGSVR32 and ATL.DLL



3. Similarly, one by one, register the files listed below:



REGSVR32 MSXML3.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL
REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL
REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL
REGSVR32 QMGR.DLL
REGSVR32 QMGRPRXY.DLL
REGSVR32 JSCRIPT.DLL



Note: Please try and register all the files. While registering each .DLL
file you should get a "succeeded" message. If you encounter any error
message, please let me know the exact wording.
