I would check if you have got some sort of software on your pc that is stopping you installing the thing on your pc

downloaded a software programme called malwarebites (was recommended to me from a lot of members of the microsoft update forums), reason being that i was getting a error code every time i tried to do a windows update java update etc, since using the free version of this around 6 moths ago it sorted everything out and ive had no problems installing or doing any form of update.

Do you have a link to what you downloaded?

Ste if you google 'error 1606' it brings up lots of sites that will help you - I'm not recommending this cos I've never used it but it's an example of what it brings up. error-nerds.com/how-to-fix/?id=1 ... 4wodV0Krdg
