It was proposed by Automatic updates. Everytime it fails.
When turning off the PC it again indicates it will install pending updates.
There is no msg indicating the failure at that time, but when rebooting the
icon showing pending updates appears again and I am back to square one.
I have not reinstalled windows.
Thanks for yr support
It is late here so I may read yr reply only tomorrow.
