Recently, when my computer goes to update Windows, many of the updated do not install. I've tried the fixes offered by windows forums, but I wondered if you had any ideas on this.

Hi, it's me again. I went through the history of all my updates failed and succeeded and it looks like at least some of them were actually installed before and then marked as a failure this time. I didn't know that they would try to update you for something you already had - in the sense that they would mark it "failed" and give you an error code - but I'm going to just keep checking. So maybe that is all my problem really is!
