    I won't stop it, because I need it for XP, too. Don't worry. But on the server I already replaced it with 4.5.

    I started with a new wim that did not have 999158 and 999159 previously installed and reran the updates from then on. Even though KB2685811 and KB2685813 now show the correct file versions from the mounted image (6.2.9200.16384). KUC says
    bad file version with remove status. The new version should be okay and doesn't need to be removed right?

    McRip,
    Sorry for offtopic!
    In the process of scanning any new non-public hotfixes after KB2584577, KB2681116 and KB2629462 for Windows XP SP3 is not met?

    Anyone know why remnants of removed packages can still be found in a mounted image ( \Windows\servicing\Packages) even after committing the image? Specifically .mum and .cat files of superseded fixes remain in the image. Is this normal?

    Example KB2425227
    Code:

    Why is 2728738 superseded by 2719375?

    First of all 2728738 contains 2 packages:
    Code:
    windows-profsvc 6.1.7601.22055
    usesmbbasedbandwidthandlatency 6.1.7601.22055
    2719375 only one:
    Code:
    windows-profsvc 6.1.7601.22056
    So my first thought was NO.

    But then PointZero:worthy: told me he had no usesmbbasedbandwidthandlatency entry in his winsrx folder.
    That normally means the package is not applicable.
    And if a package is not applicable and all the other packages are superseded, then the hole hotfix is superseded.

    But that was not right in this case since usesmbbasedbandwidthandlatency sets the registry value:
    Code:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlset\Services\ProfSvc\Parameters\UseSMBBasedBandwidthAndLatency 
    to 0x00000001
    After installation of 2728738 the value is set.
    So my second thought was NO.

    What I know was 2719375 is superseding the windows-profsvc part of 2728738.
    What does 2719375 do? It updates the profsvc.dll to version 6.1.7601.22056.
    So I take a look at the old an the new dll files.
    The old one uses the reg value set in 2728738 but the new one does not.
    MS has change the value the dll looks for from
    UseSMBBasedBandwidthAndLatency​
    To
    UseSMB1BasedBandwidthAndLatency​
    In addition this new registry value is not created automatically.
    That means even if the old registry value is present, it will not be used if 2719375 ist installed.

    That let me assume, that the problem described in KB2728738 is solved in 2719375 without the use of a registry value and MS leaves a longstop in the code to fix: whatever.
    So my third thought is YES.


    We can summarize:
    Even, if 2728738 is installed, no package of it is used, as far as 2719375 is installed.

    Or in other words:
    2728738 is superseded by 2719375.

    BUT: there is a really small possibility, that MS releases a new version of “profsvc.dll” that also uses the old registry value.

    Out of curiosity, why is KUC complaining about KB2685811 and KB2685813 if the most current file versions are installed and 999158 and 999159 were never installed previously?

    hi Al, I think the answer to your question is in KUC's changelog for ver 0.8.006.007:

    ... For me it was not possible to integrate 2685811/2685813 correctly into the DVD. So I marked 2685811/3 as DVD prohibited to ensure that the installation works correctly online after system installation. The problem does not occur, if 999158 and 999159 have not been integrated. So you may be able to integrate these updates successfully. But I want to be on the safe side. ...

    -------------
    to all: looks like komm has updated KUC for the newest batch of updates. Click on the link in his his post above to get the new version.

    Dumb question: is there a guide or something that tells me how to use burf's "Installer For Windows Updates" script? I think I've done something wrong. Before I used the installer (v26f), I updated WU and it said the only things to install were a couple of office 2010 updates and the malicious software removal tool. All good. Then I got excited and used the installer to install a couple of non-security updates from McRips's repo and then (without restarting!) to remove updates that were no longer required. After restart WU is showing me 7 updates, which I know were previously installed (I kept a close eye on what gets installed on this system). Three of updates are security ones dating from jun-2011 (2544893), feb-2012 (2645640) and may-2012 (2659262). The other non-security updates shown are 2541014, 2647753, 2718704 and 2695962. Has the installer removed too much? Or has WU lost the plot? Or have I hosed my system? Cheers John
