Windows Updates fail to install on vista
Hi,

I have a problem in which most of the Windows Updates fail to install on a
clean windows Vista install

My config is as follows:

Vista Home Premium 32Bit

User & ProgramData Folders are on Drive D (Using Vista's Unattend.xml Option)

Program Files was moved to Drive D After install

Junction point were made for everyone of those folders on the C Drive that
point to D Drive

Everything else works fine beside these updates

Can someone tell me what went wrong ?

Re: Windows Updates fail to install on vista
I've tried everything
It's something to do with the Program Files, ProgramData and Users Folders
on the D Drive
