Your replies to this thread have confirmed that KB3008923 is, in fact, installed.

If Windows Update continues to offer KB3008923, just hide it ("Don't show me this update again").

If you run a manual check for updates today (i.e., 24 or 25 January 2015) and no updates are offered, ignore the "a Windows update did not install properly" error dated 03 December 2014.

PS: Please do not EDIT a post of yours after someone has replied to it or to a later post in the thread. Thank you.

    from Sep at least i have had same PC, i don't use Reg cleaner here, just had questions about them, only Spy Bot what is Anti Spy Ware, maybe i got it in Aug to, cat remember the correct time, but lest say From Sep, but the threads u linked here are from same PC

    i also have thread about csrss.exe, i had 26 of them running, new only 2

    its also strange it 193KB, never seen update this small, maybe it did download full update? or did i download something what is already installed cause of some bug

    more of my thread's

    so meany csrss were running 

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8\_1-files/client-server-runtime-process-csrssexe/aca46404-eb84-4d76-977e-1f7872f94bca?tm=1413056030716

    how i got rid of csrss, it was total accident how i did it

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8\_1-files/csrssexe-help-i-double-clicked-on-csrssexe-made/12ae998c-2c2d-4a61-8d8a-9c17d5a22f2a

    win store

    dunno why, but i start to feel like that so meany csrss was running was normal for this system i have & that solving that as a problem made PC bit unstable (not sure are this things related or not, cant remember when it started to go downhill in that way), i can play game & all functions properly (no performance issues), or maybe Win 8 is just that broken like so meany say, but some weird SH happens time to time with system, small things like this & this:

    Bucket ID:    8bbd7fb9cc113b965f286171a4646958 (90802440177)

    i have 20 reports about this already, my sys takes them as small matter i guess cause it never alerts me about his issues, i only see it when i go in problem reports, well it is a good, no interruptions when i play

    maybe once or twice i used Ccleaner, after getting this PC, but restoring this old Reg mite cause more issues, cause it restores uninstalled & unwanted stuff to, i just tried again, today it installed it, so maybe this error above also is cause sometimes it update fails & then suddenly it does it

    about previous PC

    PC what i had before was replaced with this one cause how to say it, lets say it simply, it broke down (it was half a year old if not 1), in there after first repair action center was crazy, it was yellow & said i have issue in PC, cant remember what it it was, a it was that maintenance has not been running for a while, u was running it manually & still it said it hasn't been running... & that PC had Win 8 to, no problem in my old PC what is for backup, in a box & it has Win7 & almost no issues

    i'm asking abut all this problems, but i'm not capable of fixing them, even if i get instructions, one issue, i would need second PC connected to internet to have instructions at my sight & look at them awry sec & even then i mite screw up, like  Microsoft team has suggested with some issues, clean boot, instead of answering my questions, sometimes they are helpful but sometimes not, its just i have few glitches myself, so suggesting something like this does not help me, just mentioned it, i know u haven't suggested it

    Assuming Win8.1 64-bit...

    Please answer each of the following [admittedly tedious] diagnostic questions in a correspondingly-numbered list in your very next reply, preferably without quoting this post:

    1a. When (approx. date) did you purchase the computer?

    1b. Did the computer come with Win8 (or Win8.1) preinstalled, did you do a clean install of Win8 (or Win8.1), or did you upgrade a (e.g., Win7) computer to Win8?

    1c. Assuming you started with Win8 => When (approx. date) was Win8.1 installed?

    1d. Have you ever done a Refresh or a Reset?

    1. What is the full name of your currently-installed third-party anti-virus application or security suite (i.e., not Windows Defender!), if any, and when (approx. date) does your current subscription(if any)expire?
    2. What third-party anti-malware applications (i.e., not Windows Defender!) are installed, if any?  What third-party firewall, if any?
    3. Has a(nother) Norton application or a McAfee application EVER been installed on the computer since you bought it?
    4. Did a Norton free-trial or a McAfee free-trial [pick one] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (Doesn't matter if you never used or Activated it.)

    6a. Is KB3008923, KB3013126, KB3004394 [or KB3013769]; KB3006226, KB3010788, KB2992611, KB2993958, KB3005607, KB2978126, KB3003743, KB3002885 and/or KB3011780 listed in Installed Updates (not Update History)? [1]

    6b. How about KB2989647, KB2984006, KB2995388, and/or KB3000850?

    7a. What Update Version & KB number are displayed in the second line of text in IE11's Help | About [Alt+H+A] tab; e.g., Update Version: 11.0.54 (KB1231231) ?

    7b. Is Firefox, Chrome or any other alternate browser installed?

    1. Is Adobe Flash Player v16.0.0.235 for Internet Explorer installed? TEST HERE USING INTERNET EXPLORER ONLY! => http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    2. Do you have backups of ALL the changes registry cleaners have EVER made to the computer? [YES/NO]
