hello everyone.
i'm not a technician but i attempt to fix my computer problems myself with the help of the i'net.
apologies if this has been covered already but i couldn't find anything on the forum.
i recently reformatted a laptop and need to update it but going the normal slow microsoft update method would be too costly (using my data allowance) so i thot i'd try WSUS but i'm not having a lot of success.
so far, i've tried 3 times to download the WSUS updates and all 3 attempts had a large number of ''failures.''
i had 69 failures in my last attempt.
here's a sample:
05/20/2017 4:37:31.03 - Warning: Download of http://download.windowsupdate.com/msdow ... 398218.cab failed
the failures in my 2nd attempt are at the beginning of the download and
the failures in my 3rd/last download attempt are at the end of the download..
can i transfer updates from one download to another to make one complete download file?
or... since the failures in my 3rd attempt are near the end of the updates, can still run the installation and at least get the successful updates installed?
or can i simply run the update installer in the 2nd and 3rd downloads with the failures until all the MS updates are installed?
suggestions, please.
thanks...
