FWIW, I haven't heard anything from him about the batch of updates I sent. As burf said, maybe he'll start updating on Sunday.. No new Office updates have been released (post 2012-02-16). SoLoR's kept the Office repo updated and current.
If that is the case, M$ will buck the trend of releasing bulk M$ Office 2010 hotfixes every 2 months. The last significant numbers of hotfixes was stated in Office 2010 Cumulative Update for December 2011, KB2639884. I wonder why such is no longer the case. ____ @McRip Thank you for your contribution. If you cannot post links, state it in such way: hxxp://hotfix.cesidian.info. We would understand it.
My router died. Had to get a new one and then I had to configure all the mappings in my network. It was the hell...
Hey Burf' View attachment 14057 Tried option 3 in 24d and it silently fails to install all updates-my repo cache current to today. It pops up xx updates installed, update not applicable....etc. no reboot required-but, reboot is required and it installs the xx number of updates until the one it flags as nonapplicable. I divided up the 301 cabs into groups of 50 to try and narrow down the problem updates, but, it flagged nearly half as nonapplicable, so, I gave up on that. Further, if I run from my repo directory undivided, it starts with the highest number first; ie:Windows6.1-KB2675469-x64 and down. If I divide the cache into 50 groups and run 24d from the root of each 50 cab folder it starts with the lowest KB number in each folder. If I run option 1=no worries, all install; plus, they will all integrate offline without error. I logged one attempt and attached them here for ya' in case it helps.
Personally, I don't think he wants to do it anymore. Too much time and energy for too long and probably tired-he has a life; just thinking out loud.
It shouldn't start with the highest number first... the command uses 'dir /b', so its weird it does them in reverse order. In terms of it not working... I have no idea! it worked for me in local testing, and had done since test2, so I don't know whether others have encountered it... I'll look in to it! In terms of SoLoR's updates, it could well be he wants a break from it, maybe a joint 'venture' with, for example, Komm, may be a suitable alternative?
I just completed another fresh install and 24d-option 1- started from the lowest KB number and installed all no worries-the only difference I did not install the AMD Core Parking updates until last after a fresh reboot. This should not make any difference because I run Intel. So, I just don't know...never had any concern like this before or since-an unexplainable anomoly-PC upset with me maybe. I did not try option 3-50 and autoreboot. Komm's help would be nice-that's up to him, but, in the end anybody will tire of it over time and want to pass the "torch"; a lot of work pouring over all the updates and coming up with packs or lists such as SoLoR or Komm; time will tell I guess...nice while it lasted.
can any forum member send him a message to solor and ask him if he has stopped working on updates? so we don't have to rely on him and it's clear for everyone
