this is weird, as I updated 2 windows 7 installations and in both cases the SSU KB3177467 got installed after a reboot after the installation of the CU KB4462923 -andy-
KB3177467 is exclusive update, it will not offered in WU unless you install/hide all other updates, even optional ones that's why they paused KB4462923 currently, it doesn't show in WU unless you install/hide all other updates too
On machines with the predecessor installed, that update will only register metadata and won't require any reboot. As it looks, the files are the same, only it is now released as security update.
Hi. i can't use internet to update my windows 7 systems. so i need to install offline updates. i install these updates to make them more up to date: windows6.1-kb3177467-v2 (before recent update "windows6.1-kb3177467") windows6.1-kb2670838 windows6.1-kb3125574-v4 windows6.1-kb3172605 windows6.1-kb3179573 + latest Monthly Rollup (windows6.1-kb4462923) does it right thing to do? do i miss something important? THANKS
Good enough maybe these security updates too: KB3156016 DirectX KB3159398 GroupPolicy KB3161949 Winsock KB4457044 .NET 3.5.1
I don't know how new this is, but MS seems to have disabled the hotfix and the fix it downloads: The Hotfix service is no longer available Easy Fix solutions are no longer supported or offered for download -andy-
They are too hurry to reach 2020? hotfix download links still works for now either hotfixv4.trafficmanager.net or hotfixv4.microsoft.com
Maybe they are going to make Windows 7 updates full cumulative soon? Maybe they are going to make Windows 7 updates full cumulative soon and all the hotfixes will be integrated?
I remember few time ago Microsoft promised to release a full cumulative update at the end of 2018 which is supposed to replace KB3125574, but there is still not news about it.
