How do you know which updates are installed?

[spacesurfer]

I created an nLited XP CD with post-sp2 updates. I lost track of which updates are on the CD. How can I tell which updates are installed on the CD source? I particularly want to know if KB922120 is integrated on the install source.

Also, after I install, is there any way of knowing which updates had been integrated?

Thanks.

Winupdateslist by nirsoft will tell you all which systems updates where installed even if they have been integrated.

ALso unless you selected for nlite to delete .cat files you can look in the i386\svcpack\ dir. The internal cat files in there are from the installed\integrated hotfixes.

For non-commercial use there is also Belarc Advisor, which will let you know which hotfixes are missing:

Yes, they're all listed under:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates] *.*

Thanks for help. I found the updates in the registry key.

Also very helpful was Belarc advisor which told me which updates I was missing.

Thanks.
