So how do I get to go to %WINDOWS%|SoftwareDistribution\Download
where do I type it in?
I thank you for your help, I am sorry I have to be told things step by step.
Yes, I know I am rather new at this.
go to %WINDOWS%|SoftwareDistribution\Download and delete everything.
then re-run windows update and re-download the patch.
Go to COMPUTER
Double click C:
Open the folder WINDOWS
Search for the folder SOFTWARDISTRIBUTION and open it.
Look for the folder DOWNLOAD and open.
Delete ALL the content. (Keep the folder DOWNLOAD)
Reboot
Nobody even bothered to check whether the code was decimal or hex...
<cmd_output OS="XPsp3">
E:\>net helpmsg 652
652 is not a valid Windows network message number.
E:\>set /a c = 0x652

E:\>net helpmsg %c%
Another installation is already in progress. Complete that installation before proceeding with this install.
