After turning on my computer this afternoon, the Windows Vista Update notice popped up. Despite what others have advised me, I’ve been pretty good about installing Vista Updates the day they come out. If anything, I believe I’m proficient enough with Windows now a days that I can solve most issues that might occur.

After the mandatory reboot, I was greeted once again with the Windows Update notice. I installed the only update on the list and went about my business online. A few minutes later, the same update pops up again…this was odd indeed. After poking around with my system and reinstalling the update a few more times, I decided to go straight to Microsoft itself and download the update, which is available here.

I’ve installed the update manually, which I’ve never had to do before with Windows Vista, and the problem seems to have gone away. I kept Googling the issue to see if I was the only one and found a few other people having been experiencing the same problem. Some have used the same method of manually installing to solve this minor annoyance. Seeing as how others seem to have encountered this issue, I decided to post it on here to make it easier for my fellow Vista 64 users to fix this.
