Your welcome!

This can be used with a fresh install of XP, but I also use it to update my current install, which is a few months old.

GH0st

The "WinXP_post_uSP4_hotfix_installer" has just been updated to include updates from July and August. Click link in sig

GH0st

new updates again, 18July18

GH0st

Nikos, if you download them both, you will see one is listed as a "V2", I installed both, in order, with no problem other then the "Find Target" issue, which doesn't effect my daily useage

GH0st

seems they have offered NEWER updates, dating 17July18

in COMPONENTS_REFERENCE.pdf from SP4 Components Reference
in page 7 says that KB2564958 is included.
I dont know why a fresh install of sp4 want this update again.
Maybe they change something in newest updates or is a 2nd version.

Hmmm, will look into this

GH0st

no, its not included, which is why it IS offered in WU. It's appropriate to have in this pack, will NOT install with my pack, but will install manually.

GH0st

I can manually install it after the install. Or let WU install, but, it should install thru this hotfix update installer. It does not install, but then it will install thru WU or manually. The log shows fail, but I dont know how to interpret it further. Its not a super big deal, as WU will give it t...

ok, need some advanced help on this one. With my Post uSP4 Hotfix Installer, I include kb2564958, which does NOT install. Fail log present. Need help in what I need to do to get it to install.

You forgot a update from May 2018.
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.co ... =KB4134651

There are problems associated with kb4134651, so it's being avoided. Yet you can install thru WU if you want

GH0st

Working with, trying out, the latest updates, I find "kb4293928" to bring alot of extra latency to the entire system. I uninstalled it and my speed came back! Last friday I did a fresh install after making a fresh ISO of uSP4, forcing myself to make almost no changes to ISO. Fresh install, very fast...

never mind, not a real problem, deleted content

WinXP_post_uSP4_hotfix_installer_12May18 is GOLD

I am pleased to say, fresh install is perfect and was fully updates thru this 12May18 pack, Except the on one avoided (kb4134651)

GH0st

WinXP_post_uSP4_hotfix_installer_12May18 I have tested multiple times on my current OS install. Everything works as planned. I will do a reformat and fresh install soon, to make sure I got all available updates included, except the one problem. Special thanks to 5eraph, Kurt_Aust and mooms ... who ...

GH0st

If using mooms' suggestion, better add quote marks around "%~dp0" pushd "%~dp0" @Kurt_Aust, @mooms: I did try and like the (pushd "%~dp0"), but tryed to delete the other switches. The batch installer would stop cause some of the updates were set to reboot. So in the end, rather then try to figure e...

does anyone know where I can download a KB, which installs the Microsoft Update? you know when go to systems properties, Automatic Update tab, then hit the Windos Update Web site, on that site click to go to Microsoft Update site, it installs the MU software ... where can I get that, so I can add to...

GH0st

yikes ...

I will still do next version with out, temporarily, because I need to make other changes, to test. Abodi is also updating his AIO dot.net so hopefully all this can be sorted out by the week end

GH0st

I have installed todays updates, but it would not offer them thru MU until I manually installed the latest IE8 (kb4103768), then it would offer the rest. Remember, it is necessary to FIRST manually install the latest !E8 cumulative update EVERY MONTH to most reliably have MU/WU work effectively. Yo...

GH0st

I have installed todays updates, but it would not offer them thru MU until I manually installed the latest IE8 (kb4103768), then it would offer the rest. So today I got: kb4056564-v2, kb4101477, kb4103768, kb4130957, kb4131188, kb4134651 ... also offered two office updates. All is well for me! If no...

GH0st

The latest pack (13Apr18) did update to include kb2564958, not sure why it still offered it to you again unless you have the older version. I have done a full/fresh install, then used my pack to update and first visit to MS Update I was fully updated except the one problem (KB4074852). I have not lo...

Or you could use this single line:
Code: Select all
pushd %~dp0
Then the folder of the batch file will be the working folder (no need to put %~dp0 at the beginning of each local files you want to execute).

Will try this out, try it on my live install, will report back

Edit: To add, this is post #500

GH0st

GH0st, you've hard coded the paths in your batch file c:\hotfix\windowsxp-kb942288-v3-x86.exe /n /o /q /z which means that for it to work without editing, people have to extract the archive to C:\Hotfix As there is no UAC elevation issues in XP, it would be better off without the path, then it coul...

After looking closely to his site, when deciding between the BIGPACK and AIO, I see I really need the AIO version, no need for all that other shiat. Installing now!

Conversations about all the BS

GH0st

Link to security guide is in my SIG

There was some fighting between multiple peeps with Wilenty, they even took his stuff off of Majorgeeks, but it works just fine, at least the most current version I have. I will search for link elsewhere, post what I find

GH0st

See, I'm putting out some quality posts last few days ... some days I got my shit-straight, other days I'm a dummy!

Think it may have to with my food choices ... I just ate a Taylor Ham Sandwichfood for the GODZ!!

Thanks for your reply ... but I was interested in some specific problems you might have ... If there are other things to check, please let me know. I will keep the update in my OnePiece addon for now. There are others who claim they have no issues as well, so no idea why some do and other do not. H...

Good for you! Congrats!! I use "Big Pack Runtime Libraries by Wilenty 2018-03-24", does a great job with all the extra C++ and other stuff included there.

GH0st ... I have no problem with services.msc. Now I install the Office 2003 + Compatibility Pack. Good regarding services.msc.

Most recently, 5eraph, listed his updates to his update pack, which updates should be deleted cause newer ones cover the older ones. That and I need to add one more. So will work on this tonight, should be up soon. I will update the upper post, showing changes too. I named it uSP4 hotfix, but could ...

GH0st

I haven't experienced any problems with a clean setup that included the "superbad" KB4074852, which is definitely *NOT* to say that I don't take you (and Henoganda) seriously. What are some of the things that go wrong with it? Are there any "repeatable" test scenarios? You will have to go thru the ...

Making progress. What follows is what I have determined so far. Bear in mind that these changes apply to the addons, and not necessarily to other updates released this year by Microsoft.

KB4052303 replaces KB4052303. <--- Typo

GH0st

KB4074852 = superbad!!!! heinoganda recently validated it was best to use the KB4018556-v2. My personal exsperience is to stay away from the newer KB4074852.

Yeah, we have all benefited from all these project, Thanks to 5eraph, user_hidden, Harkaz, RyanVM and the many others who participated in all these tools and update packs!

makes sense, will do

It's up to you, Dibya, but I'll be releasing another addon soon to supersede it. If you do post your addon, create a new thread for it.

Actually, that's not quite right. You might want to carefully read Tomcat's post again.

Responding to my post. This has the greatest potential here. What Trevor12 did. If someone could take and REMOVE all the dotNet stuff, add Windows Installer 4.5 and all the newer updates except KB4056615 and KB4074852. Then the Abodi AIO installer can be used to update the dotNet's. So who wants to...
