Hello,

Security update KB263171 will not install. Error code is 8007712. I have Dell Inspiron with windows 7 Home premium, service pak1, 32-bit.

I use both IE and Fire Fox.

Thanks

This might work for you:

1) Open CMD prompt as Administrator
2) Enter the following: takeown /f C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml
3) Enter the following, and type in your username in the designated
place: cacls C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml /G <EnterUsernameHere>:F
4) Go to C:\Windows\winsxs\ and rename the pending.xml file to
pending.bak
5) Run Windows Update again, and you should be all set!

Good Luck
