Windows 7 Hotfix repository

In my opinion, KB2558990 (Windows-Authentication-AuthUI, 6.1.7601.21759) is superseded by KB2725279-v2 (Windows-Authentication-AuthUI, 6.1.7601.22028).

@McRip, what is preffered way to download office updates at once ? is there some tool to grab all links ?

Thanks

 

I use PimpFish for IE, works like a charm for me.

 

@McRip

Do you allow FTP access to your Repo?
I tried with hotfix2.cesidian.info, but that did not work. This would save me from having to download the .7z once a month.

I don't really know which kind of software to recommend for downloading all files at once because all the files are also on my hard disk. So I don't think about it or never thought about it.

But Win7Toolkit does it for you.

Due to security reasons there is no ftp access for this server. I upload the files by a different protocol.

Sorry

No worries, komm. It is just a small slip-up. Both you and McRip have done an excellent job in maintaining your respective repositories.

Based on the great information provided by PointZero, I ran the following commands individually in Command Prompt, bearing in mind that I only installed Word, Excel and PowerPoint. The following superseded Office hotfixes were from April 2012.

Code:

msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba0b0.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba1b8.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba10b.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba16f.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba19f.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba098.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba122.msp" /qb
msiexec /package {90140000-0011-0000-1000-0000000FF1CE} /uninstall "C:\Windows\Installer\2ba167.msp" /qb

Are the name of the superseded msp files the same for everyone? If that is the case, how can I create a script that automatically runs the aforementioned commands? Thank you for the information.

 

Normally the old msp files will be automatically removed by the newer one when installing e.g. "*.msp /passive /norestart".

That's why I don't understand why you remove the old one first? I never had such problems because the old files get removed automatically first.

That's for office only.

 

@McRip
I use Burfadel's Installer For Microsoft Office Updates script to install the office hotfixes. Once they are installed, I proceed to uninstall the superseded office hotfixes using the commands I mentioned in my earlier post.

Throughout my experience, the superseded msp files are still in C:\Windows\Installer, even after the newer msp files are installed. Perhaps, could you explain the way you install the office hotfixes in a bit more detail? Thanks.

 

OK, I never have taken a look at Burfs Installer, so I do not know which way this installer uses to install office updates.

But there is nothing special about installing office msp files.
That's what I use in a cmd file:

Code:

@echo off
COLOR 1F

for /F %%i in ('dir /b /o:n *.msi') do (
    echo Update: %%i
    %%i /passive /norestart
    )

for /F %%i in ('dir /b /o:n *.msp') do (
    echo Update: %%i
    %%i /passive /norestart
    )

EXIT

Normally according to Microsoft (I have to look for the article), if you install an office msp file, e.g. access-x-none.msp, the older one which is installed will be uninstalled first. All this is working on my office installations and there are no older msp files on my computers... And I installed bunches of hotfixes and updates for office.

 

If you have a few free minutes, could you check something? Open C:\Windows\Installer folder, then sort the files by size with largest at the top. Check the file details property for several of the .msp files and I think you'll find you do have multiple versions of the older, previously installed updates that are still on your system.

Here are a few of the larger .msp file sizes to check for:

PowerPoint: ~96MB
Word: ~68MB
Excel: ~63MB
Access: ~30MB
Outlook: ~23MB

akf: I can't verify the names of those superseded .msp files you listed since I did a fresh reinstall of Office after last week's release. Maybe somebody else can check those file names on their systems though.

Gimme some time. I have to investigate some stuff regarding office 2010.

And thanks for the hotfix.

 

repo updated.

 

@t mcrip,
is there an update for the runtimes soon?

 

Dude! what is the fetish with non existent updates?

You are asking to read Microsoft's mind and predict when they will release a hotfix
