Windows XP: some updates "not found"

Windows XP: some updates "not found"

Postby DougWa » 22.07.2016, 03:05

I downloaded a two-year old version of wsus so as to get the update cache for Windows XP (x86) and while running wsus I saved the updates to a folder on a usb flash drive. While wsus was fetching updates the cmd window text said something like this a few times: "Warning: Download of http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... kroots.exe failed".
Looking at the log I made a list of the seven updates that it didn't find and I downloaded them via browser. So now my question... can I just copy/paste the seven updates to the flash drive, and if so, into what folder?

Tell me the missing updates, then I'll tell you, where to place the files.

All NDP-patches listed here go to .\client\dotnet\x86-glb; the Windows6.0 one to .\client\w60\glb and the Windows6.1 one to .\client\w61\glb. rvkroots.exe is nothing you should worry about.
