    "We Can't Install Some Updates, because other updates are in Progress"??

    Sorry...Not Mike, that's a name from another program. PA BEAR!!

    Defender Shows 1.225.1845.0. for both definations dated 7/18/2016.

    Computer seems to be working fine now.

    As for Malware bytes it been on the computer just a few weeks....Although it's found nothing on that computer, it has saved me a lot of times on this Windows 7 computer, by blocking questionable websites. It will allow you to over ride it; if you want to
    do.

    I don't know about Adobe Flash player ..if it's even on the computer or not.. It's on this one..

    Thanks PA Bear..

    This is the message on Windows 10 Settings.... "Restarting may help:..We'll keep trying"

    What in the world is wrong here?

    You could try the following....whether it covers what is a Beta O/S is open to speculation.

    Hi Mcored,

    Were on a learning curve here so bear with me.

    Can you navigate to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TrustedInstaller\Start

    in the right hand pane

    START Reg-DWORD 0x0000003 (3)
    Whats yours showing???

    in previous versions of the OS 4 or greater means its confused, (user action required)
    3 is default - no actions required
    2 is Update pending.

    Roy

    Hi Roy

    Thanks for your help although I hit a brick wall:
    https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1...8_20-49-30.jpg

    There is no Services once I navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control.

    Can this be a problem?

    Thanks
    Michael

    Hey Roy, that's the best answer (way forward) I have gotten so far. Thanks so much. I will keep researching what Windows Update that belongs and reinstall!

    Hi Mcored,
    Dont think its an update, as such, Arabic language pack, OCR-ar-sa

    So the next question what version are you running, Home---- etc?
    Have you got that pack installed, if so uninstall it
    REBOOT

    try updating.

    Next if your version supports language packs and you need it, repair corrupt table

    run this mapping table

    Hi Roy, I don't have an Arabic language at all. I only have English (Australia).

    I have Windows 10 Pro.

    I am not exactly sure what to do with the spreadsheet. The content of the spreadsheet is all Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Fonts-*.cab. Error however is the Microsoft-OneCore-DeveloperMode-Desktop-Package.cab?
