  I had the same problem, but after I turned on all the services related to
SQLSever. I was able to update the SP.
To turn on the services:

1. Click on Start, and then Run, type in msconfig, and click on OK.
2. Click on Services tab, and check all the services with the word "SQL" in
it, then click on Ok.
3. You have to restart your computer.

After restarting your computer, try to update again. Hopefully this may help.

If you are unable to update the MS Office, do the same, but turn on "Office
Source Engine".

  After investigating the error logs produced by the installer to get a
clue about what was going on, I took the following two steps and the
windows update patch successfully ran:

1) Kill the process tree of ArpWrapper.exe (This was probably just
blocking step 2, you need to make sure nothing from this folder is
running even it means booting in safe mode so that step 2 will
complete successfully, otherwise the open file handles will stop the
de-compression algorithm.)
2) Uncompress the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server folder as
well as all of its subfolders. You can do this by right clicking on
the folder and going to properties -> advanced -> uncheck the
"compress contents to save disk space" box. Click "Ok", then click
"Apply" and tell it to apply to the folder as well as all subfolders.

Let me know if this helps!

providing the answer.

  Thank you for your response, but it did not help for two reasons.

1.) I am insufficiently technical to know how to kill the process tree of
ArpWrapper.exe, and I am a little afraid of fooling around by myself to try
figuring it out. Can you help me with this?
2.) The folder you refer to is not compressed, so this cannot be part of the
issue.

Can you or someone else please help more/again with the problem. I am being
driven mad by the constant messages to install the update when I shut down.
I cannot install the update or stop the messages or find any way of deleting
the uninstalled update. Right now, I'd settle for anything that would give
me some relief.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can HELP, PLEASE.

  I have no idea of how to kill the process tree of the execution file as
well...however, I have directly gone to step no. 2 as mentioned by
psteijn@gmail.com without bothering much of the previous step. There were
messages popping up during the decompression process saying that SQL
manegement file is being used by other process, I just ignored them and
proceeded with the decompression. Eventually, I able to get through the
update. Hope this will help.
