 * Windows Update No KB978262 ** ** problem **

Manually installing a Windows Update begins at the Microsoft Technet Security website :- []

It should be noted that, while it is not necessary to follow this process in Internet Explorer, this example is described in IE9.

Once at the site, scroll down to the second section and click on the **Search by KB article number** tab.

In the **Knowledge base article number** field, type the number of the stubborn update and click the **Go** button. For example (978262) is used in this demonstration. This will bring up the **Bulletin Description** seen below. Click on the link shown. The following **Affected Software** page contains a list of systems affected by the update. Select and click the link for the correct operating system.

In the **Microsoft Download Centre**, verify the correct Update number and click the **Download** button.

At this point, the download may either begin automatically or, depending on browser settings, the download may have to be approved.

If the choice is made to either **Open** or **Run** (rather than Save) the file, the **UAC** (**User Account Control**) warning may appear. If so, just click the **Continue** button. The **Windows Update Standalone Installer** will begin the search process. If the update chosen is not the correct one for your system, expect to receive the message below.

Due to the variety of causes of update installation problems, it is likely that this will not solve them all.
