Windows 8.1 Hotfix Repository

Funny how the new fwpkclnt.sys has lower binary version now.

 

2995730 entry is kept by cleanmgr /resetbase in the servicing folder, but, fwpkclnt.sys is the same version number in both KB's, lower in system32.

servicing\Packages KB2995730

Code:

 <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft-Windows-Common-Foundation-Package" version="6.3.9600.16384" processorArchitecture="amd64" language="neutral" buildType="release" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" versionScope="nonSxS" />

servicing\Packages KB2992405

Code:

       <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft-Windows-Common-Foundation-Package" version="6.3.9600.16384" processorArchitecture="amd64" language="neutral" buildType="release" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" versionScope="nonSxS" />

I remember abbodi1406-I believe-explaining this, but, cannot find the post.

 

Nice and thanks but there's a syntax error in the code:

Code:

abbode1406 >>>>>>> abbodi1406

 

Dism or system servicing mechanism deals with the main assembly version (WinSxS folders), not individual files
and KB2992405 has higher assembly version 6.3.9600.17343

true that fwpkclnt.sys file has lower version, but it's the same version that is published with September rollup KB2984006 which is an update
whereas KB2995730 is a hotfix, so the newer version maybe did not pass the testing well or something
KB2992405 is also an update (release type)

btw, tcpip.sys has branch tag winblue_r3, when did they release Update 3?

regarding StartComponentCleanup (regular or resetbase), it doesn't handle or process hotfixes and consider them as elevating branches and skips them

 

Is it possible to remove mums of superseded hotixes after a resetbase?

 

Hello
I think this question maybe similar to the above post but just wanted to add more detail, I have Windows 8.1 without DotNet 3.5 but with the 2966828. I am offered 3005628 via Windows Update but it fails to install with an error (800F0825) that seems to mean cannot uninstall (presumably 2966828). This is likely due to running resetbase to reduce my image size each month. How do you get around this situation because I cannot install Dot Net 3.5 (via Windows Update or DISM) or remove the blocking patch (via the 3005628 exe or via Programs and Features | View Installed Updates | Change/Uninstall)?
Thanks in advance for any advice

 

That's a tough one. Windows 8.1 was a transition OS in terms of updates, which we only now know. For Windows 10 they will be changing it, meaning instead of big versions of Windows there will be minor updates, with a fast track pathway and a standard pathway for updates. Even the fast track pathway may not install all updates. It has the potential to become very messy if they don't release updated iso's every year.

For your problem, I think you may be stuck... Unfortunately. Windows 8.1 isn't fool proof, there can still be issues with it that can't be simply resolved.

Thanks for posting this, Netfx updates are always a pain in the ass because they need to be installed in LDR version, thanks for finding which ones are these for me. Any NET3 updates this month?

 

Give it another hour or so...
They're supposed to have everything up at 10AM PST.

I typically even give them another couple hours in case there are stragglers.

 

i must wait for updates to 20.00

Same here in sysprep. And on all other normal pc's.

EDIT: found a solution. i copied the .msu into KUC and let KUC install the update. Now its installed.
So my gues is to install it with dism. And its ok.
