    Default Vista Beta 2... How can I do the updates?

    Hello all

    I've just installed Windows Vista Beta 2. I activated also the Updates
    automatically. I can see in the notification area the icon with one
    critical update. When I want to install it, it seems install but just after
    the same update appears again... this update is not installed... and I can
    not continue.

    How can I run the updates?

    Thanks for your help

    This is a bug with the definitions for Windows Defender and Windows Update.
    Hopefully it should be resolved within this period or by the next CTP. I
    usually just leave or open Windows Update and click the install button for
    the update and see if it installs.

    Thanks for your repply

    I downloaded the distribuable package of this KB912919
    (WindowsVista-KB912919-v1-x86-EN-US). I cannot install because an error
    message appears: The handle is invalid...
    What about it???

    Thanks in advanced.

    Might be a dodgy update, or possibly that you don't have security
    requirements for it, try logging in as Administrator :o)

    I got totally confused at first.. Since ive applied a policy to use my WSUS
    Server (Windows Server Update Services) to only allow updates which I have
    approved.. But Vista isnt compaitable with that at the moment.. So yer Andre
    and Zack cheers for the advice :)
