Many apps somehow needs vcredist service packs

Too many of the same file are getting downloaded
Filenames is saved like garbage

This
All in one update
Don't know the garbage file names
or
Why not over writing the previous one

Thus not recognized and then downloaded again

Every time I run an update check it is getting downloaded
Same file
Different garbage name
Same bit sizes
Same crc checks

Thanks again for a project well done

Keep up the good work

Hello UpdateWorm,

Which version of WSUS Offline Update (WOU) do you use? For example, the FileFormatConverters package isn't used anymore by WOU for some time now. It could be that the other errors you are experiencing also are related to an outdated WOU version.

Looks like you have a third-party software manipulating links. Could be an over-zealous security software, or even malware.

In red the original link that's getting redirected. Look out for suspicious toolbars or similar crap on your system - you are spied upon probably.

I still use WSUSOffline 9.1 to occomodate older xp machines
Must we rather use the newer 9.2 version

I changed the name of one of the garbage files to

FileFormatConverters.exe

Run the update and everything was intstalled correctly

We use an old xp machine just for downloads

Then install all updates on the more up teo date machine
Xp, 7, 8, 8.1 machines

Must we rather go to the newer wsusoffline version

If we copy the install dir over the 9.1 dir w2ill this erase the older xp updates

Thanks in advanced

This only happens for this specific FormatConverters.exe
Everything else is fine
