Update Rollups after November 2014 (Win 8.1/Server 2012 R2)

Hello w63 Updaters!

I decided to start a subsequent thread to list the update rollups for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 that were released after November 2014. WSUS Offline Update version 9.5 already includes all previous ones, i.e. "Update 1" from April 2014 (KB 2919355) and November 2014 update rollup (KB 3000850).

NOTE (2015-06-12): This list is not maintained by myself anymore, because Microsoft obviously doesn't provide further update rollups. Furthermore, I use Windows 8.1 myself only seldom for testing reasons and could easily miss new updates. If anyone has news about update rollups, please post them in this thread.

Currently taken into account (last updated 2015-03-13):
  • December 2014 update rollup for Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB 3013769)
  • No update rollup released by Microsoft from January to March 2015.

For Windows 8.1 32-bit:

For Windows 8.1 64-bit/Windows Server 2012 R2:

Code: Select all

NOTE: The x64 lists may contain updates that are only applicable to Server 2012 R2 (but not to Windows 8.1 64-bit). If you are just going for Windows 8.1, you can leave out the corresponding entries in the x64 lists. Currently those are: none

Happy Holidays

Some background to these lists

You may ask, why I just list the update rollups and not all other important and optional updates?

Usually, the volume of the update rollups exceeds the ones of other Windows updates by far. So, WSUS Offline Update can handle some additional megabytes before going online with updated Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 systems and downloading remaining updates. On the other hand, including any further updates in the list would make maintenance too time-consuming. Thus, it is a compromise.

Happy new year!

Concerning the update rollups, it starts without any new one. So the January entry keeps empty.

No Update Rollup in February 2015, too!?

Hi!

As I am seeing it, there isn't an Update Rollup in February 2015, too. Don't know if Microsoft has changed something in their update plans for Windows 8.1, so there won't be any further Update Rollups? (Just a vague idea.)

Greetings

Could you include the listed update in the permanent static download list of WSUS Offline Update? So the full update rollup package would be included right away.
