The last two work; they indicate they are installed, but they later reappear as updates. The first update (2008) always ends in failure.
Could you help me?
Thank you

Hello,
Try to perform a manual update and so on. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello,
See these patches for your updates, by looking carefully for those that match your updates, you should find:

Go to Start, then click Computer to open it. Right-click the system hard drive (usually C:), then click Properties. Click Disk Cleanup. Wait a moment, then a list of items to clean will appear: check the box for Service Pack Backup Files and then click OK. Confirm and wait for it to finish. Then redo your updates, but doing them one at a time would be best.

It doesn’t work... I feel like all the updates are going to be blocked from now on... but why? I did the manual installation, nothing changes...
It shows for some of them that the installation is successful, but the updates come back immediately, as if I hadn’t done anything!

Yes, I did everything! But it seems on forums there are a lot of people having issues with the updates for the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable package and 2005....... by the way I tried to install Ad-Aware on the computer last night and it didn’t work, apparently because of these Visual C++ things that don’t want to install, especially the 2008 one since the 2005 one is marked as installed, but the update keeps coming back.... same for the latest Windows 7 security update which is installed in the updates but keeps coming back!!! Nothing to understand.... on the support site, I saw that Microsoft was aware of these recent problems, had put an online solution, a patch, which I downloaded, but it didn’t change anything!!!! and what is the Service Pack 1???? sorry, I’m not very strong in these technical things, but I had never had a problem like this before! Thanks for your help! :)

I have exactly the same problem as the author. I can't perform these updates. And I have tried every possible solution I could find on the net :/

And strangely, if I go to "Control Panel" then "Programs and Features" then "View installed updates" it tells me "No updates are installed on this computer" :/
