I need to install “Windows Update Standalone Installer”, but I am getting the message:- “The update is not applicable to your computer.” I am running Windows 10 Home edition – Version 1709. I am updating to solve a problem with no online video playback on Quantum 58 version, with 64-Bit operating system. I would appreciate help with this issue.

That is not a Firefox installer. Where did you get it? Do Not run it until we check it out.

Perhaps you were thinking of the media feature pack though normally that is for if you have say a N or KN edition of Windows. Windows made for say USA and Canada market comes with the codecs provided by the media feature pack.
