KB2446708 does not apply error

Asked By Christian Miller 20 points N/A Posted on - 07/24/2011

When I was using my computer today I got a pop up from my task bar saying that I have an update from Microsoft.

So I clicked it and got redirected to the automatic updates page, but when I tried to update it, I got this error:

 

Software Update KB2446708 Installation Wizard

 

Welcome to the KB2446708 software update.

another condition on your computer.

 

                                                Next            Cancel

 

This update is important or is it ok if I just leave it alone?
