Strange Windows Update Site. >70 updates missing

[Mim0]

After slipstreaming I checked my installation against Windows Update.

WU told me I have >70 missing important/high-priority updates.

Some months ago I noticed the same with Microsoft-Update-Site after I checked my office-installation (also slipstreamed to the latest security-patch-level).

What's going on there?

Hello!

Where did you downloaded the Microsoft Windows Updates for slipstreaming?

[Mim0]

Where did you downloaded the Microsoft Windows Updates for slipstreaming?

Always from MS.

I've tested another installation (from March this year): much less (about 35) updates are shown as missing. Thats ok.

I've asking me why so much updates are shown as missing with the current Windows installation? But it seems that no one has made the same experience and so it's not a prob of the WU-site.

You can check inside your computer all updates installed inside:

%systemdrive%\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ReportingEvent.log

You can see all the updates installed since March, in your case, for your personnal computer!

Microsoft give new updates Every second Tuesday of the month!

If you are runing with Windows XP, maybe you can use:

Windows XP ENU

I hope that will help you!

Let me suggest something not so funny.

Delete every update or hotfix from your PC (or HF folder), download again from the same list that you have made (even more, get a new source folder).

I get no new updates for spanish (my native language), except does not integrated as .NET 4 nor Windows Live Essentials.

Thx guys for your help.

I made a mistake (shame shame SHAME ON ME )

from a previous HFSLIP-run I used ENU updates for my DEU Windows

It was too late that evening.... stupid, isn't it?

you're not a alone.

yesterday i waste sometime on testing multiboot cd made with cdshell, had errors many times on VMware, reason:

using "NumPad", disabled by default on VMware.

Sometimes is so obvius that we can't see...

Mine in the same situation. I think the new updates are due?

Hello!

I remember that a long time ago, I've used HFSLIP, but this one works only with Windows English version!

And, of course doesn't work with my Windows French locale version!

[dstk]

Error is caused because you find it?

[Maxfutur]

Not more wrong than that.

Works for me (and almost everybody else), Slipstreamed windows XP SP3 Spanish version many times now.

@Maxfutur

I will try how HFSLIP works now!
