My security updates didn't install the last 2 months so I went back to this forum. After installing v9 it updated flawlessly! Thank you so much!
The UpdatePack installs KB4580345 up to a progress of 66%, then the progress indicator jumps to 100%, and it gives error 0x800F081F. Looks like it is not able to resolve the problem with this particular update, either.
try to uninstall then reinstall the latest Extended Servicing Stack Update (SSU) and see what happens.
The same problem with me. I solved it with the file dotNetFx4_ESU_Installer. Follow instractions and the problem will be solved.
In that thread, I now got the following information: Does that mean I will have to uninstall @abbodi1406's patch prior to using the Simplix UpdatePackage?
how will dotNetFx4_ESU_Installer solve this issue ? what does doNETFx4 installer have to do with his problem ? he can't install oct rollup ESU update, not doNetFx4 ESU.
Did you reinstall it before trying to install oct rollup ESU again ? you have to install it again. If it does not work, uninstall again KB4580970 then install may SSU and try to install oct rollup ESU, it is available on first page.
Simplix is another project, please stop advising people to use it or posting about the problems with simplix, it has its own sticky thread in the windows 7 part of the forum. The patcher on the Simplixed updated OS can give errors and then the bypass v9 manual install fixes it.
Indeed, this does not look like a good advice as the error persists So I am a bit puzzled now - what should I do? Uninstalling KB4580970 does not work anymore (perhaps because it was installed using the Simplix UpdatePack instead of WU). I am now trying System Restore in the hope that I can go back to a state where none of these fixes was installed, in order to be able to start over again.
If that doesn't help, can you post a screen of the "updates history" and the "installed updates" windows?
Is there any problem if I disable Internet Explorer as a Windows feature? Not really using it for anything...
As far as I can tell, for Win7, it seems like there shouldn't be any problems if you disable IE. I mean, on the Win7 computer I use, I use Firefox as it's browser.
you download the update file from Microsoft update catalog manually, you extract the files into the bin directory of doNETFx4 and run the dotNetFx4_ESU_Installer.cmd as administrator. It does the job.
That was my fear. I just did yesterday with "Programs and Features" and no problems so far, I'll keep and eye on this.
Because the official way will only hide it for you, the integral parts are still there and used by the system.
That's what I did now. I installed Windows 7 from scratch, first applied the Simplix UpdatePack (because WU is unable to automatically find all updates needed for ESU Bypass v9), and finally applied ESU Bypass v9 as advised. Looks like that is the way to go. As this was a clean install anyway, what was the possible culprit? Maybe Vistalizer that I had used to install a language pack on Windows 7 Professional. I now upgraded my Windows 7 Professional to Ultimate _prior_ to installing language packs. This way, the language packs are offered via WU, and there is no need to mess around with Vistalizer.
