KB951847 needed after using nlite?

[quest221]

I use nlite to remove some unneeded component for XP. I have used nlite for several years, and now my micro-XP worked properly. Recently, I installed .Net Famework 2.0 SP2, and then the KB951847 comes up in windows upates (Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and .Net Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x86). I only installed .Net Famework 2.0 SP2 and I don't want to install this hot fix, the size is around 250MB.

Finally, I installed an original copy of XP, and then installed .Net Famework 2.0 SP2, the KB951847 never appears in windows updates. So I think there must be some removed component involved in this.

Anyone have this experience?

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

quest221, just because the KB is 250 MB, does not mean that your HDD space will increase that much. I think this is an upgrade to .Net 3.5. If you don't feel you need to upgrade, then don't install it. Here is the MS article describing what is in the update. If you are a heavy user of .NET and need the function/fixes in this KB, then you should probably install it, but only you can make the decision. I am running 3.5, but I tend to keep my system up to date. Enjoy, John.

quest221, if you want us to consider this a problem, please attach (not paste) your Last Session.ini. Make sure to always start with a fresh copy of your CD files/folders, do all your work in one nLite session and integrate only one SP. Please report when you have a solution, so others can benefit. Enjoy, John.
