The Update Below

Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 on XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2008, Server 2008 R2 for x64 (KB2656351)

This update is downloaded and shown as installed everytime I turn off my computer, any idea why it keeps on returning? and what do I do to stop it, I am running windows 7 64bit if that helps
TIA

From the above link:
I resolved the problem by removing .Net 4 using the removal tool, rebooting the PC and installing .Net 4 from the download.

I had a look at the link thanks but it is all as clear as mud to me, i will have to grin and bear it i think, but thanks for your reply

Do you know how to find "Programs and Features" in the Control panel"?
If so, I can try and talk you through the rest, if your up for it.

[fourteen85]

yes I am up for that

[WyeDyed]

OK, here's Plan A:
Go to the Programs and Features, on the left is an option to "View installed updates" - select that.
Find the entry for KB2656351 and select Uninstall from the top.
When it has finished, reboot your computer.
When it has re-booted, go to windows update and it should be ready to download. I would de-select any other updates, so that it only does that one.

That should sort it. If not we'll try Plan B with the Removal tool link.
I'll be working until late tonight (at least 11pm), will check in to see how it went.
Good luck!

Oh, I'm here 'til 2pm, Any questions before you start, I'll try and help.

Before I start should i turn off auto updates or leave as is

[WyeDyed]

Good point. I would turn them off, temporarily, one less interference.

[fourteen85]

I do not seem to have an update in the list for KB2656351

[fourteen85]

Uninstalling now, will keep you posted

[fourteen85]

ok I have re installed and at the moment there are now more updates (or the same ones) waiting to be installed, hopefully that may have cured the problem, I will post again on sunday to let you know , thanks ever so much for your help

[fourteen85]

should have said no more updates not now more

[WyeDyed]

Looking good so far...
Fingers crossed.

[fourteen85]

Looks like it is finally sorted, thank you once again

[WyeDyed]

You're more than welcome.
