Select Start, Help and Support, Keep your Windows up- to-date with
Windows Update, Review your Update History you can see the update. What
is the Failure code. Double click the small red icon in the Status
column for the failed update.

Cross posting to Windows Update newsgroup.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. After reading a few
postings in the update group came across this one.

After beating my head against the wall and reading ALL of the posts of
people
having this problem, and no one giving a solution, but a few were able
to
lead me down the right path.

HERE IS THE SOLUTION!!! (at least it worked for me!)

Go to C:\Windows\system32\drivers and delete wdf01000.sys

Then, go to windows update, and select Custom. Then select hardware
updates,
and HID non-user Input data filter should be there again. Now select
download and install, and it should enter the correct information and
fix
your HID non-user Input Data Filter Error / fatal error / failed to
install
problem.

Thank you so much!!! I just tried your suggestion, and it worked for me also.

Yes, of course. Take a look at what Hank wrote, one or two posts back. I also tried that and it worked for me.

Any suggestions?

Please take a look at what Hank wrote in message #3.
The clincher seems to be:

Go to C:\Windows\system32\drivers and delete wdf01000.sys

I am not as tech. knowledgable as most of the other posters here. So please be careful.

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

I am also getting a failure during the installation of KD911895. The error
code is 0x80070643. I read that this is a generic code--not very helpful.

How can I determine what is hanging up the installation ? Microsoft Online
Support gave me the advice to hide this critical update on the Microsoft
Update page to avoid repetitious downloads, but that is just sweeping it
under the rug. SRX 1106205350

Does anyone have a specific suggestion how to hunt down the barrier ?

if that is not a typo you might be better off asking in a newsgroup
which supports whatever language you are getting your KB articles in.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=911895

So, is that what you are trying to do? Are you sure that it is applicable
for your case?

Sounds like someone has already asked you for diagnostics and done
an analysis of them for you? What did they ask for? Why not ask them
for a better explanation of their conclusions and recommendation?

FWIW I wouldn't be so quick to assume that they are wrong.
It might be that the update is not appropriate for your system
in which case suppressing its offer is the *only* thing that you can do
until the metadata which causes it to be offered to you is changed
on the AU server.

In general what you can do is search in all files which the update changed
for instances of either the hex code or its decimal equivalent.
So, in this case search all files which changed on that day for each of
643 and 1603; then sort the results by Date Modified and scroll to
the time of day that the update was done. Open any files which look
like diagnostic files (e.g. .log files) in Notepad. If you don't have an
association for a file's extension just drag it to an already opened Notepad
window. Find the context of the code in the diagnostic and then scroll
backwards to figure out what it really is informing you about. If these
clues are not sufficient you can also supplement whatever diagnostics
you do find by running ProcMon when you rerun the install of the update.

Do you in fact have one of the hardware items listed in the KB article?

<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911895>

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911895

If so, was it working at the time? If not, did you used to have one?

Have you tried downloading the update from the Microsoft Update Catalog, and
then installing it in Safe Mode?

<http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=911895>

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/....aspx?q=911895

This worked for me

In the case of KB911895 failure the solution is:
Go to C:\windows\system32\drivers and delete wdf01000.sys.
Then the KB911895 will install.

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

I do have a Microsoft Wireless 2000 Optical Mouse and it has never given me
a problem. Nor do I have any problem placing my pc on standby or hibernation
which I only do manually. I also rarely use a screensaver, but when I choose
to do so it works. I don't have any idea what problem this update is supposed
to fix.

My computer is in use this evening, but thank you for the idea of
downloading the driver and trying to install it in safe mode. I will try
later or during the weekend when I can tolerate a restart.

This suddenly appeared through the notification icon in my systray and was
presented as a critical update so I took it seriously. How can one tell
whether the proferred update is appropriate for your machine or a Windows
Update process mistake when it won't install ?

Apparently, one you aren't experiencing. :-)

This means that it should be safe enough to just hide the update as Microsoft
support suggested, although it would be nice to remember about it in case you do
start having these symptoms in the future.

(Problems of this sort often only affect some people, for reasons which are
usually too complicated to be worth trying to figure out.)

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

Thanks some more. I followed the link to the catalog and downloaded
the update. The information from the site says essentially to double
click on the downloaded file and follow the directionsl When I did
that (not in safe mode) the copy/move utility opened. At this point I
don't know how to make use of the file in safe mode or otherwise so I
will keep researching. If anyone is willing to post directions about
what to do with the file in the 'Microsoft - Other hardware - HID Non-
User Input Data Filter (KB 911895)' which came down from the catalog
containing a file named 'X86-zh-tw_de_el_en_es_fr_it_ko_pt-br_ru_zh-
cn_pt_ja-nec-20264387_6e08d8505eae1a080db4768bc46f57980933161d' I
would be grateful

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

Could you clarify what you mean by "copy/move utility"? If you're not sure how
best to describe it, you can attach a screenshot.

Right-click on the file and select Properties, and tell me what it says under
"Type of file".

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

I'm sorry this reply took so long--the site has been down. There is no
apparent way to attach screen shots to this reply.

TERACOPY 2.01

CAB FILE

My Wireless Optical Mouse 2000 is not on the list of problem devices in

"Article ID: 911895 - Last Review: November 29, 2007 - Revision: 11.4
The screen saver does not work when you use a Microsoft wireless pointing
device on a Windows Vista-based computer"

and I have a WindowsXP Home SP3 based computer, but the software for the
mouse is Intellipoint 6.1 which is on the list. Since I have had no problems
using the mouse or any of the problem issues I have found linked to this
download at this time it seems clear I should not try to install it.

Thanks for your help in leading me to this realization.

Re: KD911895 Update will not install

I had the same problem so I attempted to use your solution. Unfortunately,
Help and Support won't respond. I have attempted several remedies from the
forum with no success. I will deal with that separately but in the meantime,
is there another way to review the Update history?
