So I just finished my new unattended windows 7 sp1 dvd with all updates to date. I grabbed the MSU file for IE9 and it worked fine integrating with DISM (I use this for all updates). After boot, IE9 is there, no issues whatsoever. It runs great. When I run windows updates, IE9 is still in the list..it downloads and installs like its not installed. Very weird. Is there a registry key somewhere that needs to be changed so that windows updates knows its installed?

Thanks.

Hi there, I just had the exact same issue, and found out that Windows Update found a newer version/build of IE9 from what I originally integrated. I went ahead and installed the update, and now my IE9 version is 9.0.8112.16421.

Here are the latest MSU files for IE9:

x86: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=210145

x64: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=210143

I hope this helps

That worked perfectly thanks. I wonder how I got my hands on a version that was actually replaced by a different version. I would have expected with new builds, there would have just been some update but obviously whatever I got was never a public release.

Anyways, thanks again. Much appreciated.
