Windows Update tried to install KB2876415, but threw a Code 80070002. I've retried, redownloaded, troubleshot, shut down, and so far, after four tries, I can't get it to install.

Anyone know what the update is and why it refuses to install?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Top Gun. And now for the rest of the story . . .

Windows Update keeps showing KB2876415, but when I tried the things you listed, and finally had to follow the link you gave, I was told the KB is already installed! So, I checked my updates and sure enough, there it is . . .

And WU continues to insist that it needs to be installed. :(

So, I guess it's about half solved?
