Has anybody managed to sort out the issue regarding the latest update from windows.
KB3024777 & KB3004394.
I've read about the fixes but unfortunately on checking add remove programs neither of the above show up so I cannot delete them.
But every time I shut down the computer it says its updating and on re starting I end up back to square one.
It doesn't install the update!
HELP!!!!!!!!!

I haven't experienced this problem myself but you could try this.
Go to https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3024777 and download either the X64 (64 bit OS) or X86 (32 bit OS) package.
To check which OS you have open Windows Explorer and right-click on COMPUTER (just above your C: drive). Then select properties.
Confirm you have Service Pack 1.
Your download folder should contain the downloaded file.
Open it by right-clicking it then select "Run as Administrator" and follow the instructions.
Just clicking it should work but given your problems I would go as Administrator.
Let us know how you get on0
