    You must run dism with the additional "/English" switch like show on the startup of KUC

    if you used the switch, send the packages.txt to me to check

    Please find it attached. I do use the English switch, but, it does not seem to matter; KUC rejects any and all manually created packages.txt. It will only accept "auto generated" ones.
    Thanks

    The packages.txt is unicode not ansi.
    Why?
    Normally dism creates output in ANSI!
    Open packages.txt in notepad and save it as ansi
    then it works.

    That should work.
    So why do you get a unicode txt file?
    what chcp do you use?

    or did you start
    cmd /U
    try cmd /A

    or just try
    dir >t.txt
    and open t.txt with notepad to see if it is unicode or ansi.
    if t.txt is unicode you could try
    cmd /a /Cget_offline_packages.cmd to get it in ansi.

    Had to change default mount directory to D:\Offline to get it to work on offline image. Using KUC to integrate updates to mounted image right now=very nice.

    Thanks komm

    Thats ok! hope the test 4 works for you. Its easy to tell, the same thing as before will happen if it doesn't (no harm done, it just means it stops after 2 stages). Hopefully it goes through the 7 or so required stages (due to the number of non-installed updates on a fresh system) now. In any case, its not so good installing more than 50 or so in one go, only because the applicability checks takes more processing with each updates, and things start to slow down once the trustedinstaller thread gets 'saturated'. Its a single threaded app, so on a quad core it would show 25 percent in task manager. There's also the increased risk of something not installing correctly if you try and process them all at once. Option 3 avoids both these issues, so hopefully it progresses through all the updates now.
