spitf1r3 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 After running Microsoft Update I found some cabs (I think some contain ActiveX controls, that were installed during update & genuine check.Could those be slipstreamed with Hfslip in the future?Their names:wsus3setup.cabwuident.cabwsusscn2.cabI can upload them if needed...

jvidal Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) have you tried adding them to HFCABS and re-building your CD? Edited January 1, 2008 by jvidal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitf1r3 Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 Of course I did.To no avail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 what are those needed for anyway?I add muauth.cab, muweb_site.cab, mucatalogwebcontrol.cab and legitcheckcontrol.cab to HFCABS and include windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe in HF and WU/MU are 100% happy.bye!

Tomcat76 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 The HFCABS folder is only for CAB files with specific names. But even if you repacked everything into a CAB file with a supported name it wouldn't work because the three packages mentioned above need to be placed in a special folder, in packed and unpacked format.Personally, I see no reason to add support for these CAB files into HFSLIP (at least not into the main HFSLIP utility) because they are downloaded automatically, and because they are rechecked every time. HFSLIP only supports the files jvidal mentioned so the user doesn't need to do anything extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitf1r3 Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 But after integration of supported cabs I have to istall few ActiveX controls to use Microsoft Update... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Then you must be doing something wrong or your cabs are outdated or you're not including the latest version of windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe, because, like I said, WU/MU does NOT prompt me to install anything.bye!

Super-Magician Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 He's not prompted to install those CABs; they're installed automatically without user interaction and then rechecked every time you visit WU/MU. I guess he's just paranoid about having all the ActiveX controls he needs already slipstreamed. No need for that though if it's installed automatically.

jvidal Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Yeah, that's probably it.I'm happy with the cabs I include and windowsupadateagent and so is WU/MU. Works for me.bye! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he's just paranoid about having all the ActiveX controls he needs already slipstreamed. No need for that though if it's installed automatically.After slipstreaming newest cabs MU still prompted me to install something...think I try once more.And BTW, I AM a little bit paranoid about updates;DI reinstall my XP quite often, and I want to have everything installed;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 then you're still doing something wrong, MU/WU does not prompt me to install anything, when I slipstream the files I mentioned earlier in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arie Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Same here. Windows Update and Microsoft Update don't require me to install anything anymore either. Works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
