    Are other Lenovo owners getting Event Viewer error 4374 after installing Windows Updates?

    Example -
    Event ID 4374
    "Windows Servicing identified that package KB967723(Security Update) is not applicable for this system"


    Every time I install Microsoft Windows Updates (Tools > Windows Updates) I always get the following Event ID 4374 warning in the Event Viewer.
    I get this error for every and all updates.

    However, all the updates show installed in the View Installed Updates via the Control Panel > Programs & Features.

    The cbs.log and windowsupdate.log don't give a clear indication whether the install was completed. But I am not sure how to interpret the logs.

    Belarc also shows the updates are installed.

    So everything looks like the updates are installed, except for the Event Viewer warning.
