Thanks Kayrac! 
EDIT:
Issue that is addressed in Windows Installer 3.1 (v2)
• Windows Installer no longer fails silently when the installer tries to update a file that is protected by the Windows File Protection feature. | |

Pittsburgh, PA | Updated my Win2k machine last evening. My WinXP Laptop, never notified me it had an update. Sounds like it will be telling me to update today when I get home.
Thanks Dadkins! | |

Installed and rebooted with no apparent ill effect.

1 edit | Re: New Microsoft Windows Installer Update? Haven't received update alert yet, but of course I don't leave my PC on overnight, so I guess it will pick it up sometime today. I think my autoupdates are set from anywhere 2P.M. to 5P.M.
Since I still think it's unsafe to leave a PC on 24/7 so I never do it, always shutdown before I go to sleep at night. | |

1 edit | Re: New Microsoft Windows Installer Update? Just logged on, and noticed the automatic update popup. What exactly is this?
EDIT: What I meant is, what is the main purpose of the installer. I have the previous version installed, but have no clue what it was for. | |

After I posted here I saw this same topic in the Microsoft forum and realized it is a new version. I'm happy to say I now have version 2.

Rockwood, MI | Re: New Microsoft Windows Installer Update? My autoupdate still hasn't kicked in, it was set for 5P.M. Oh well I guess it will get it eventually this evening. Why doesn't autoupdate kick in at the time i set everytime there is an update is what I don't understand. | |
