As we all know microsoft released 8 critical updates yesterday, my automatic updates are set to "download and install".
I am using XP home edition.
When I connect to the internet, a little "shield" icon appears near to the avast icon. When I put my mouse over the shield it says "installing updates 0%".
But then the shield icon disappears after a few seconds. This keeps happening, so obviously the critical updates are not being installed.
I am suprised becuase in the past, once the updates are installed you are asked to restart the computer. But is not happening.
I could install the updates manually but I why do I need to, when they are set to automatic.
What can I do about this problem
