I've been using Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 64bit for quite a bit now. At first there were no problems with updates but the last two times it installed updates to my computer it made it basically almost useless. After the updates I'm unable to start any kind of browser, any kind of game or even use windows media player, steam and orgin also doesn't work. In order to deal with this I usually just delete the newly installed updates. So far it has worked both of the times but I have a feeling this is how it's going to be like forever and I would like to know if I can stop it. I did looked this up on the Internet and I've found some solutions but I have a feeling that it ain't going to work.
However I suspect that this could be happening because my Windows aren't exactly legal, they are able to get updates and it says that this version is verified, but in reality I don't think it is a legal copy of them.
These Windows were installed by my mom's co-worker. He used an usb connection from his computer to mine and installed the Windows that way, I was there the whole time too.
So could this be happening because of my Windows 7 not being legal or is there something else that is causing this? Keep in mind that it wasn't like this at first, the updates used to work just fine until 2013 - 08 - 31 if I remember correctly (that was the first update that fucked my shit up and the update after it which was today did the same).
This is how the error looks like
