How about an MVP reply. Update icon in sys tray
The Windows Update icon sits in the system tray and won't respond to a
right, left or double click. Passing the cursor over the icon shows "downloading updates 0%" I have Googled this problem and no reasonable answer has been given. No MVP has replied. It's a quite good looking icon!!!! Randy |

How about an MVP reply. Update icon in sys tray
Hi Randy, What may be a reason to your problem is that the Windows Automatic Update tool is unable to reach the Windows Update Centre. Does the icon go away after a time (as it should in that case)? Can you connect manually to the Windows Update Centre? I hope you find a solution to your problem.

How about an MVP reply. Update icon in sys tray
Hi Philippe,
No, the icon never goes away. It just sits there like a bump on a log. Good looking icon though. I can connect to the Windows Update Center and SP2 is available for download. I'm a little shy to install SP2 at this time due to some kind of problem with DirectX 9c and some of my media software. I had to reformat after installing DirectX 9c. Couldn't Restore. Thanks for the response. Randy "Philippe_G" wrote in message ... Hi Randy, What may be a reason to your problem is that the Windows Automatic Update tool is unable to reach the Windows Update Centre.

Passing the cursor over the icon shows "downloading updates 0%" You have initiated auto download of SP2, but as yet very little has arrived. You may have to wait a day or so before it even starts - the pressure on the servers is great and a first come first served is in operation. Ultimately it will start to show more; how long it will take depends on your connection speed, but there is likely to be around 100 MB to come over. If you disconnect and reconnect it will pick up from where it had got to -- Alex Nichol MS MVP (Windows Technologies) Bournemouth, U.K. (remove the D8 bit) |
