[Patvs]

Today's Windows 7 updates is causing problems with HoldemManager.
The temporary solution is to uninstall those updates and reboot.

-1 Go to control panel system--> windows update--> installed updates



-2 Click (red cicle) or click Today



-3 There are the four updates you have to uninstall.
Select an update--> click Uninstall
Are you sure you want to uninstall this update--> YES
You must restart your comptuer to apply these changes--> Restart Later
(RESTART/REBOOT your computer when all four have been uninstalled)




-4 Also click on Change Settings to make sure Windows isn't installing these updates automatically again.
Pick either:
Download updates but let me choose whether to install them or
Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and instal them

Thanks, it works.

I've removed 3 of the updates, but the last just won't remove. It says error and stays there. It's the update ending in 38 and it doesn't specify what the error is, it just says - Error the update has not been removed???

Uninstall the others, then reboot and uninstall the last with *938.

Thank you

This worked and I appreciate how easy the instructions were to follow!

Could someone please post in this thread when it is okay to install those updates again.

You forgot one thing, to tell people to install other new updates when they come.

When will HEM fix the software so that these updates don't break it up? It is a very bad idea not to install security updates.

Hi, we appreciate its important to keep windows updated, windows only released the update a couple of hours ago and were already looking into the issue but this happened during the early hours of the morning US time when most of our developers are sleeping but well get a new version out asap

After my restart, it is no where to be found !?
And HEM still doesn't work

EDIT:
NVM, it popped up after 3 searches

Good good..... I hope that the new HM update will be available in the coming days because i am not messing around deleting windows stuff. My computer is precious.

Until then I am taking a poker holiday for some days waiting for you guys to fix that stuff.
