<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have problem with Windows Update Center - one of updates (Critical Update for Microsoft Silverlight 2 - KB955011) permanently fails to install on my machine (Windows Server 2008 Enterprise SP1 x64). I already tried to stop &quot;WU&quot; service &amp;&nbsp;delete %SystemRoot%\Software Distribution folder - the same result as earlier - Windows Installer asks: <br />
&quot;The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is not unavailable.<br />
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package &quot;silverlight.msi&quot; in the box below.&quot;<br />
I tried to download silverlight.msi but did not find anything that were accepted.<br />
Please advice how solve this problem, or maybe hide this update to avoid constant appearing of &quot;New updates available&quot; message.<br />

Windows OS

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.

Installation

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
