Hi Karniaris,

The file you mention was probably not whitelisted. Additionally, you could upload the file to CIMA and post the link here.

Here is a work-around that repairs possible issues with Windows Update :

  1. For now, please disable “Auto-Sandbox” & “HIPS” features.
  2. After that, please run KB947821. Restart your computer system.
  3. Check for new updates.
  4. Restore your initial configuration [Step 1].

Hope it helps.

Qmarius, you are absolutely great. I did as you recommended and everything works fine. One new update was installed, perfekt.

I thank you very very much for helping.
