Sorry for the lack of details regarding my post. Whenever I attempt to update, it gives an error code 80072EFD. See First attached picture. But there were instances that windows update would say it is Not Needed, after every attempt of updating as shown in the second pic.

Hi.

Thanks for the help

I think MS have made some adjustment to that update. I downloaded the KB947562 today without a problem
anymore.

Thanks

Mark
