Since 11th February I have found that a number of Windows Security Updates, probably about 8, are failing to install even though I have tried to install them on different days since that date.

Does anybody know what I can do as far as reporting a company for issuing those fake refurb COA's? They look real but dont include a key on them. I ended up with a machine with one years ago but ever since ive always seen keys on the stickers. Or maybe microsoft has a way to pull up the COA based on that serial number on those COA's if they are real?

Removing alerts for Windows Defender updates only

Like most people, I don't rely solely on Windows Defender and thus I use a separate third-party antivirus product. I run both real-time and on-demand scans using the third-party antivirus product. As a secondary precaution, I run Windows Defender on-demand scans, but don't use it's real-time protection. Thus the only time I need the Windows Defender definitions updated are before I use it...

KB2976897 update offered after clean install. Wasn't it problematic?

Among the Patch Tuesday updates of August 2014, IIRC, KB2976897 was one of the problematic security updates. I just did a clean install of Windows 7 x64, and KB2976897 is being offered as an update. In checking MS support MS14-045 there is no notice of withdrawal, or replacement. Can someone confirm that KB2976897 is good to go. I ask out of an abundance of caution. :-)

I've done some google-fu and checked things like December's update that caused this issue but can't see any evidence of it on the system. The strangest thing is that the...

I noticed there was a Windows update on that date and carried out a system restore. This worked for a few hours, but the problem returned, apparently after another Windows update.
