    windows update deleting all of history


    Windows update that ran automatically this morning deleted ALL of my update history. Contacted Help and the person I was working with was trying to help me find the lost data. Has anyone else had this problem? What are the ramifications? It was there at 9:52 a.m. (I checked) and it was gone after the system rebooted!

    :)

    Update History Not Displaying Latest Update


    If nothing shows in update history, try clicking on 'uninstall updates'. Sometimes this list is more complete. Having said that, I have nothing new in either list. Bree

    Thanks, Bree. I followed your suggestion and it worked. windows update deleting all of history :)
