  1. Can't update any software


    Windows updated a few days ago. Ever since, I have been unable to install or update any software.

    Software I've tried to install/udpate:
    - Ultimaker Cura
    - Davinci Resolve
    - World of Warcraft
    - Chitubox

    All give a similar error that they can't write to the hard disk without permission. I always get the pop up asking if the software can make changes to my computer and I select yes, but it doesn't seem to be working. Some parts of the software seem to install, but others won't.

    I have run malware scanners and antivirus. Rebooted multiple times. Tried installing on three different drives - SSD and HDD. I'm at my wit's end. Anyone have ideas on where to go next?

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Can't update any software :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
