How do I install a failed Windows update?

Ben F December 26, 2013

Windows 7 Ultimate automatic update history (no error codes):
12/11/13 KB890830 Mal. Software Removal Tool
12/11/13 KB2850079 Office 2010 64 bit (failed twice on the same date; off seems to be working fine)
10/9/13 KB2836939 Micro. Net Servers?
10/9/13 KB2827323 Word 2010

All other regular important and recommended updates loaded fine. The above updates were important and recommended. I’d like to know how to load a failed update if it happens again? Thanks!

    Delete those failed updates so as to prevent any possible events in future -

    1) Open the Control Panel in Windows 7 and click on the Windows Update
    2) uninstall the failed updates

    Try again the same procedure.
