Updated the 2004/9 Updates Overview with the latest Preview CU + Dotnetfx35-48 CU + DU for Sources + new SafeOS update: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...-20h1-2-vb_release.80763/page-16#post-1571109
Thanks, but could you tell me exactly what's WinPE/SafeOS and the difference between WinPE and WinRE?
Sorry, it's just that it states SafeOS is not needed when the LCU is already used so I guess I shouldn't integrate it if already integrating the LCU.
When you use W10UI it will integrate what is needed in the correct place. That's one of the reasons i always post the W10UI progress logs, like here: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/windows-10-hotfix-repository.57050/page-520#post-1616310 I will edit the info for that update in the updates overview, to just offline integrate it.
I don't use W10UI to integrate updates so in that case should I integrate both (and the remaining ones) or only the LCU? So, like DU and SSU, WinPE updates aren't offered on WU? Also, what kinds of WU are there, CU, SSU, DU, DotNet CU, EP, WinPE/SafeOS, maybe Spectre/Meltdown and more? Should I integrate them all?
It's like we have to explain all again and again when new updates arrive. Online only the live install will be updated, so no winpe/re updates or du for sources need to be installed, but online you could just leave the updating to WU, it knows best. Offline you can integrate whatever you want, the overview shows all updates available for a fully uptodate ISO.
Please Note: When I manually installed this [KB4579305:WinPE] update, DISM applied the update without error, but it clobbered the context menus of my taskbar icons and the only way to restore them was to open Powershell and run the following commandline: Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} The taskbar-icon context-menu-items were restored. Windows Update reports that KB4579305 is needed for the proper operation of Windows and this update is uninstallable.
Thanks, that's what confused me (the difference between using and integrating). When integrating all the other updates I'll integrate the WinPE one too. When searching for updates on WU, it will install the SSU, DU and WinPE ones. So, there are CU, SSU, DU, DotNet CU, EP, WinPE/SafeOS, maybe Spectre/Meltdown and more?
When the KB4579305 [SafeOS:WinPE] cab file is dearchived, it's filled with 19041.505 files. For me, it's getting difficult to track all these version changes. Like you said, maybe we will get a 506+ CU next Tuesday and we'll be able to forget about 504 or 505.
