Shows that you are having permission issues. Are you running the hotfix as an Administrator?
Also check in the EventViewer for errors happened around that time [16:36].
I am running all the things with ADMINISTRATOR.

Event Viewer = let me confirm you please wait. thanks.
16:36 UNDER APPLICATION:- The description for Event ID ( 11260 ) in Source ( MsiInstaller ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details.

THERE IS NO ERROR UNDER SYSTEM ON THAT TIME.
Try to right-click of the hotfix file and select the option Run as Administrator.
Also turn off temporary any antivirus product that it's installed in the machine. Do not forget to turn it on immediately after the hotfix finish.
i am already login with adminsitrator.

Let me uninstall the Antivirus.
No, don't uninstall. Just stop it.
It does not work even after uninstall the antivirus.
Problem still there.

Thanks. You should reinstall that hotfix since is a security patch. Only problem is that you need to uninstall it every time you need to install an hotfix.
