Download from microsoft website which folder put them in

[lookoutnoob]

Okay I wont touch it, it doenst really matter trying to download some updates multiple times it goes pretty fast anyways. Also I tried working with robocopy, it works pretty nice this way I can work with a network drive. But I have to do this line on every computer:

Code: Select all

RoboCopy Source Destination /E /MIR /XA:H /R:10 /W:10

. Any idea how I can do this more efficient?

Use UpdateGenerator's copy to USB-feature. It is able to copy to network drives and other media, too.

I checked your custom-list and your w61-x86 one had 4 lines, which were inside more than once. Also pleas just put the download links inside, not "w61-x86" as title. wsusou treats this as an broken link and warn or error and may cancel the downloading process.

[lookoutnoob]

Would it be a possibilty to use wsusou to detect the updates, compare them against your whitelist and then install them?
I can't check, if it is possible to do so using one of wsusou's hooks, but I think, at least using a script modification, a solution like that could be possible.

This sounds like a perfect solution, but I have literally no idea how to check this. I have no idea what you mean with wsusou hooks

BTW the multiple downloads of 1 KB was indeed my own problem, there was a little bug in my code

[aker]

No need to check anything, the whitelisting-scripts use the wsusou hooks, so they don't require a modification of wsusou itself. The scripts are the working implementation of what I thought, which could work.

Aker,

I am very close to the result, the only problem I have is internet explorer 8. I will leave windows defender, silverlight and office for what it is.

Code: Select all

%SystemRoot%\System32\cscript.exe //Nologo //E:vbs .\cmd\XSLT.vbs "%TEMP%\package.xml" .\xslt\ExtractDownloadLinks-w61-x86-glb.xsl "%TEMP%\DownloadLinks-w61-x86.txt"


This is the code of you what I use. But it will only download the following KB-numbers:

Code: Select all

KB2962872
KB2976627
KB2977629
KB2987107

KB3038314
KB3049563
KB2879017
KB2888505

So I still miss:

I know some of them are superseded, but not all. Do you have any idea why this code doenst get all the IE8 updates :

Code: Select all

ExtractDownloadLinks-w61-x86-glb.xsl

Also I think the dotnet isnt downloading 3.5.1, is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

I really want to thank you in general for helping me, without you this project wouldnt ever succeed

[aker]

.NET 3.5.1 & 4.5.2 are downloaded, if you enable that feature in UpdateGenerator (by static definitions).

All of the missing IE-updates you listed are superseded, I just checked that against a list from MS:

Code: Select all

KB2416400 => superseded
KB2497640 => superseded
KB2544521 => superseded
KB2559049 => superseded
KB2699988 => superseded
KB2722913 => superseded
KB2744842 => superseded
KB2792100 => superseded
KB2797052 => superseded
KB2809289 => superseded
KB2829530 => superseded
KB2838727 => superseded
KB2846071 => superseded
KB2847204 => superseded
KB2862772 => superseded
KB2870699 => superseded
KB2925418 => superseded
KB2936068 => superseded
KB2957689 => superseded


MS removed old IE-patches from wsusscn2.cab to decrease the time WUA needs to parse it.

That is awesome, that meens that ur scripts and my code is working

BTW, is it possible to run the UpdateGenerator in the trunk map automatically to download the files? Maybe through CMD? I DO NOT mean to install them, you already gave that code

This is what I have right now:

Code: Select all

[Options]
verifydownloads=Enabled
includesp=Enabled
includedotnet=Disabled
includewle=Disabled
includemsse=Disabled
includewddefs=Disabled
skipdynamic=Enabled
[Miscellaneous]
skipdynamic=Enabled
proxy=
wsus=

Should I put includedotnet on Enabled?
Also what is includesp doing? some kind of service package?

Also, is there anything I could ever do for you? You helped me a lot and I would love to do something back

[aker]

includesp = Include SP = Include Service Packs

To include .NET / C++ you need to enable "includedotnet". There is an option to create an auto-download script, just beside the Start-button.

Nice to hear, that I helped you.

One more question:
Should I install the updates directly from the network drive or should I first download all the updates to the client and THEN install all the updates?
I am thinking about to use robocopy and GPO to do this. Or eventually WPKG. What do you think

[aker]

Works both.
If your copying first, you'll be able to update multiple machines at the same time (this circumvents the bug in my WL-script).
