When i made a new installation of windows 7 ultimate, i check installed updates, the only one was this and i read that is bad. but no way to uninstall. give some light please.
Was it offered by WU or already preinstalled on the iso? As far as i can see it's from 2011 (maybe it's re-offered regularly, i don't know, at least update.catalog doesn't offer it atm) and most likely newer updates will repaired the problems it caused in the past. Edit: it's already integrated by msft (MSDN iso): Spoiler Code: dism.exe /image:c:\mount /Get-Packages Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool Version: 10.0.14393.0 Image Version: 6.1.7600.16385 Packages listing: Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-Client-LanguagePack-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Language Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:28 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-Client-Refresh-LanguagePack-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Language Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:28 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-CodecPack-Basic-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Installed Release Type : Feature Pack Install Time : 11/21/2010 3:40 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Installed Release Type : Foundation Install Time : 11/21/2010 3:40 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-IE-Troubleshooters-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Language Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:28 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-IE-Troubleshooters-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Installed Release Type : Feature Pack Install Time : 11/21/2010 3:40 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-Optional-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~8.0.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Language Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:28 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-Optional-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~8.0.7601.17514 State : Installed Release Type : Feature Pack Install Time : 11/21/2010 3:40 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack-AU-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Local Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:30 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack-CA-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Local Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:31 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack-GB-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Local Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:31 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack-US-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Local Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:31 AM Package Identity : Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack-ZA-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.7601.17514 State : Install Pending Release Type : Local Pack Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:31 AM Package Identity : Package_for_KB2534111~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0 State : Install Pending Release Type : Hotfix Install Time : 4/12/2011 8:18 AM Package Identity : Package_for_KB976902~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.17514 State : Installed Release Type : Update Install Time : 11/21/2010 3:01 AM The operation completed successfully.
Package_for_KB976902~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.17514 and hidden Package_for_KB976902_RTM~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.17514 are pending. Which means uninstallable offline. It is for Servicing Stack. Let Windows itself to update it. Do not remove it yourself even if you can.
From the info I could find, KB976902 was a prerequisite for installing Windows 7 Service Pack 1. So, if the image you used to install Win7 Ultimate already has SP1 integrated, then KB976902 is integrated as well. If you ask me, I wouldn't screw around with it. Let it be.
Where did you read it's bad? and how? anyway, bottom line, kb976902 is part of SP1 itself, you can't remove it
