Julian,
That worked great, thanks. I no longer get "shut-down" requests followed by "one update".
Now, I get a "Windows Update Error 80073712".
I Googled the error and it comes up with all kinds of Microsoft and third party suggestions.
I tried these:
Mr FixIt.
Windows Update Error Correction Tool (forgot the exact name).
Update Windows via disk (not allowed because my PC is OEM - I get "your current op system is more up to date than disk copy" and shuts down.
Clearing the update cache.
And a few I cannot remember.
Nothing works.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Steve
