Wuweb_site.cab or Muweb_site.cab..?


Recommended Posts

When I install my source into vBox and run MU, it's asking me to allow a new updater to be installed.

Tomcat76's Windows XP SP3 list says to use the file Muweb_site.cab.

...but...

http://adelvi.com/windows/hotfixes_xp.html says to use Wuweb_site.cab.

...which is correct/current? Or both?

Or maybe MS just published a new version of Muweb with the patches on Tuesday...?

I ran RegShot before and after. The difference file is attached below...

FWIW, i put

legitcheckcontrol.cab

MUAuth.cab

MUCatalogWebcontrol.cab

muweb_site.cab

in HFCABS

and

WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

in HF

and mu/wu is completely happy.

Well if you take a look again:

You'll see that both are optional.

I'd suggest you use Microsoft Update if you are slipping any MS Software, (Security Essentials, Silverlight, Office etc.), otherwise use the Windows Update option.

Either way if you are not intending to constantly update and burn the disk or you are not involved in re-installing systems often, I'd leave the frequently updated hotfixes out and just get them at first update anyhow!
