Workaround for the known issue
There is no workaround for this issue. No "Beta 1" hotfixes are installed on your system. You cannot uninstall the updates or remove the entries from the Installed Updates list because no files are actually installed on your system.

Known issues with using Microsoft Update

  • When you install this service pack, the installation process may continue and finish successfully if you try to stop the installation. This issue may occur when the installation process is over half complete.

  • If you start the installation process by selecting the "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them" option, and then select the "install update then shutdown" option, the service pack installation may fail. After the computer restarts, you will be offered this service pack again, and installation will complete successfully.

  • If you uninstall the service pack from a non-English version of Visual Studio 2010Ultimate, Visual Studio 2010 Premium, or Visual Studio 2010Professional users, you will be offered to install the service pack again. However, the installation process will fail because components of this service pack are in an unexpected state. To successfully reinstall this service pack, follow these steps:

    1. Start Visual Studio setup in Maintenance Mode from the Programs and Features item in Control Panel, or by running Setup.exe.

    2. Select Add or Remove Features.

    3. Select Microsoft Office Developer Tools, and then click Update. When the setup is complete, reinstall the service pack.
