    CMD with withoutkb3125574.cMD, LDRBrantch was initially set to false. When the program finished, I set LDRBrantch to true again. As a result, the program did not appear to integrate any patches (based on the first update). What's going on here? And I found that only the ldrbranch values were changed. Other defaults, then Windows Update checks for 84 patches. I don't like what to do. Thank you for clearing me up.

    Windows Update will always offer old superseded updates
    either you hide them or install them

    Hello, Abbodi1406, I have never quite understood what LDRBranth is. I know that my current system is GDR through querying the registry information, so I set the value of LDRBranth to false before running withoutKB3125574 published by you. When I finished running, no error was found when I checked the log. Then query the registry information again and discover that GDR becomes LDR. What happens? Then I set the value of LDRBranth to true again, and the script did not integrate any patch for me. I don't know anything about the patch, so I hope you can help me out. Thank you again!

    All Windows 7 updates since 2016-05 are LDR
    GDR is no longer used

    LDRBranch cannot re-integrate updates which previously integrated as GDR
    it's best to start over with LDRBranch = 1

    Any Monthly Rollup will do it

    it's just registry value nevertheless

    Hello, @abbodi1406, you maintain wint7. TXTsuperseded in the monthly summary record: what is the difference between withoutkb3125574 and withoutkb3125574. Superseded: withoutkb3125574 can be found in whdownloader download a file, and the fix in whdownloader withoutkb3125574 maintenance in the library can't find it. Thank you for your answer

    I'm confused, WHDOWNLOADER downloaded 4 updates for "19041" but the MICROSOFT UPDATE CATALOG lists 21 updates for "windows 10 x64 2004". The update catalog lists a couple hundred updates if inquired as "19041" but that includes drivers and non-critical type updates. So I wonder if I'm doing something wrong or just not understanding how WHDOWNLOADER actually functions. Can anyone explain?

    I have an ISO that has all updates up until 06/13/20 but there are still more than 4 or 5 updat4es that come up with dates later than that. How can I tell which ones are the latest? And do the new updates have the older updates included, essentially like service packs are supposed to?

    Updates are cumulative superseding or replacing older ones, you only need to integrate the latest of each update.

    Latest will be the ones with the highest delta build nr and offered on WHD*.

    *WHD doesn't offer IP released updates, they are listed in my updates overview posts:

    "5. Cleanup System Image: YES 6. Reset Image Base: NO
    5. Cleanup System Image: YES 6. Reset Image Base: YES"

    - Which to enable if the host OS version is starting at 17763.1? (Clean install, no updates installed)

    When updating 1809 it's best not to use the resetbase option, cleanup image is best on it.
