Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu fails to install

Hello all!

I am trying to install "Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu" update which is
required by .NET Framework 4.0, and the installation just fails saying:

"The following updates were not installed: Update for Windows (KB958488)"

Any one knows what this update is for? And how to see the log why it fails?

Thanks!

Wild guesses include:

Is .NET Framework 4.0 Beta still installed?

Are you attempting to install this update manually? [Can't find a KB958488
anywhere.]

Are you still running Win7 RC?

Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (Web Installer):

No. And I've used Cleanup Tool to remove unsuccessful installation of .NET
Framework 4.0.

Well, yes. The point is that "Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu" is part of
the installation package of Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.
When I try install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 (tried both web and
standalone full installer) it fails with the following log:

Exe (E:\82a06bea561c9e3db5ab36\Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu) failed
with 0xbc9 - The requested operation failed. A system reboot is required to
roll back changes made.

roll back changes made. " (Elapsed time: 0 00:00:51).


As you can see the "Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu" is the stumbling
block. Therefore, I hoped to install it separetly so that .NET Framework 4.0
could overcome it.

No. My system is 6.1.7600.

And have you rebooted?

Of course. Many times, after different operations. It's all the same: .NET
Framework 4.0 won't install.

My Windows is fully updated though.

I am trying to install Xvid4PSP Video Converter (http://www.winnydows.com) -
it's one the best converters I've ever seen. It won't install unless it
detects .NET Framework 4.0 in the system. Earlier versions worked without
..NET Framework 4.0, but latest ones (so called "Daily betas" ) require it.

0x00000BC9 means exactly what it states, nothing more.

Suggest you check this thread:
..NET 4.0 will not install on Windows 7
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/For...2-cdd247b0099e

Although the error in that thread may not be the same as the one your
system is experiencing, YiChun Chen shows the poster how to collect the
installation logs from Temp using

Microsoft Visual Studio and .NET Framework Log Collection Tool
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Check for issues with WinSxS in the logs. If an issue(s) do exist with
WinSxS, then there are only 4 steps that will resolve it (them):

1) Run the System Update Readiness Tool (CheckSUR)
2) Run the System File Checker (Elevated- aka Run as admin)
3) Try an "in-place upgrade" (aka Repair Install)
4) Reformat/reinstall

What Mow said.

Or post here for assistance: http://forum.winnydows.com/viewforum.php?f=23

I already have been in extensive discussion with YiChun Chen:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/For...?prof=required

YiChun Chen has checked my logs (collected with Microsoft Visual Studio and
..NET Framework Log Collection Tool) and concluded that there is an error with
Windows6.1-KB958488-v6001-x86.msu update which is installed by .NET Framework
4.0. However he doesn't understand what hinders the installation of that
update. He ran out of ideas and suggested that I ask about it at this Windows
Update forum. So now I am here :-)
