Hi All

Security update KB981852 is going into loops. Win 7 is keep going on with instaling the update over and over again. Any ideas how to stop it ? I could not find any post with this problem with win 7.

Can you go into the control panel and Programs and Featues-View installed updates and remove it there, if it is listed. Maybe that will reset or at least get you back to a standard situation.

The update is a Security update for Win 7. If it will not install correctly, I would hide it so it won't keep trying. There have been updates after that one.

If you decide to try to install it later, you can unhide it and try again. Make sure you only install it by itself.
