No matter what I do I cannot install this update. Is there a way I can turn it off or is it needed? Thanks

I am on windows 7 32 bit. Can anyone help. I have searched this, as well as other forums with no luck. Thanks

Sorry - should be update KB2729094

The update seems to be an update for a Windows Font (Segoe UI). It also states it has been re-released due to a digital signature situation.

An update for the Segoe UI symbol font in Windows 7 and in Windows Server 2008 R2 is available

I would not delete one of Window's basic fonts.

The update just allows it to work better with certain items. You may already have it installed, or just hide it for a while and try later.

You might, if you want, download it from the Microsoft Catalog site and try a manual install.
