When I'm trying to uninstall the installed version from the "programs and features" list, the same error is appearing...... Now????????????????????????????????? I think this is the reason for the update problem...The previous version is not being failed to be removed......
two things: 1.that folder name "ass" maybe messing c+ for ya 2. Did you try to uninstall that old update manually?
Did you try to unistall all .Net (4 is the most suspected component) and the cleanup the system with CCleaner and tried again? All my problems with MU came from that!
To reset Windows Update I do this: Stop Windows Update service Delete SoftwareDistribution folder. It often works!
What is the relation between the .net framework 4 update and visual c++ 2005 redistributable update???????? What help will do the uninstallation of the .net stuff??? I said in my first post of this thread that I also tried this.........
