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.

    Since you're no longer having any Windows Update-related problems, marking one or more of my replies as ANSWER will officially close your thread.

    1. YES
    2. NO
    3. NO, & only time was whats on the picture, on 2014, it crashed on startup, as soon as win opened mouse & all froze  & i had to use shut down button on PC to shut it down

    about the game & the program, i did not cut them out cause less work, this were not my mane concern, i pointed out my concerns more directly with other pictures & TXT, but THX for the suggestion, it was cause of crash i had to close the game with taskmanager, closing something with task manager will make error report, it has fair share of bugs

    about that EA program issue i made topic on EA forum about it

    game, EA program & alianware C count out, about win explorer i'm nor sure, should i be concerned or not, it has not happened long time

    Note: We're only dealing with Windows Update functionality in this thread.

    Answer-by-number:

    1. REPOSTING: Is Adobe Flash Player v16.0.0.287 for Internet Explorer installed now?  [YES/NO]
    1. Have any updates failed to install since Thursday, 15 January 2015 according to Update History and if so, please tell me (a) the KB number [or name], (b) date and (c) error number, if any, associated with each failed update.
    2. Has Windows Explorer crashed ("stopped working and needs to close") since Thursday, 15 January 2015?
    
The blue number in IE11 Help | About doesn't mean anything. The "Install new versions automatically" option pertains to new versions of Internet Explorer (e.g., IE12), no updates for IE11.

Updates for Flash Player on your Win8.1 computer (e.g., KB3033408) are offered & installed via Windows Update as they become available (typically but not always once-a-month).
