I have Windows 7 Professional installed in my desktop. I update it whenever the update is available. But at the time of last update electricity went out. I tried to shut down the machine. Then in the screen usual warning of request not to power off it manually flashed. But unfortunately my UPS also could not hold so long. And my machine abruptly had to shut down illegally as there was no electricity. After that, at the time of every shut down, an update is present but it is not installed. It is very annoying. Does anyone have the solution for this?

Can you be more clear on this?

Just delete the update entry, from the update manager. You can right-click it. It should suppress it forever.

or use tuneup utilities to delete the downloaded update. Windows should download it again and proceed as normal.
