Windows update history shows failed security installations

I have XP Home. Checking the installation history shows a
number of security updates that failed on the same date
(January 1). Checking for updates does not give the
option to reinstall them.

How do I ensure that all the security updates I need have
been applied please?

Thanks
 
Hello,

To fix this problem, you need to delete all files and folders within the
directory C:\Program Files\WindowsUpdate and then rename the folder
C:\Windows\System32\CatRoot2\

After performing the above, you need to download the Windows Updates from
the following URL:

http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
