I've also had it where after I update to SP3, my windows defender all of a sudden won't download and install defender updates. It gives me no reason for failure, and it doesn't even show in the Update History that it has failed.īut it sits there and Windows keeps telling me there are new updates to intsall, yet everytime I got to install it, it sits there for a sec, then fails. When it is done, and I go back into Windows Update to install the last few updates, It randomly fails. And this is so far the most recommended workaround to have IE7 on Windows XP SP3 for those who willing to fresh clean install Windows XP.Has anyone else experienced problems related to upgrading to SP3? At my company, I've set up some new PC's reciently, and of course, when you go to the Windows Update, one of the first things it asks to install is SP3, so I do so.
