Server 2012 Updates on Windows 8

[greenhillmaniac]

Patch Tuesday arrives for another month (still a few hours left)... I suspect this month's updates will go well...

BTW, I've decided to create a sort of repository of Server 2012 updates for Windows 8. If you would like, you could post this link on your main post. I think it would help a lot of people who have Windows 8 systems and need to update, but can't be bothered to fetch for them in the sea of Microsoft's support and download pages. Feel free to let me know if any updates are missing or were superseded by newer ones, I'll be sure to add or remove them.

That's terrific.  I've just moved but I will get to the task of updating later today.  Thanks greenhillmanic/Arnold

Let's reboot for the results.

All installed!  Yay!  So there's four months of updates I should never have had.

[greenhillmaniac]

I've updated the repository with your updates. Looking forward to adding a lot more

Hi,

I had the same results, when looking for updates, as you. Except for the Flash update, I found KB3163207 instead of KB3157993. But KB3157993 also is a flash update, according to this page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3157993

And it does work on Windows Server 2012. So this month, there are 2 updates available for Adobe Flash?

This .NET updates I found:

3.5: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52196

4.5.2: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52189

4.6 & 4.6.1: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52135

Just noticed this.

The flash Player update KB3163207 was release 3 days after KB3157993, so it superseeds the later.

As for the other updates, they were already in the repository.

If you notice any updates missing from the repository, please let me know!

Oh wait, it wasn't this past Tuesday was it?  I thought Patch Tuesday was still three days away.

[dencorso]

And it in fact is. So, don't worry, OK?

[Jody Thornton]

Well "worry" might be overstating it just a bit, but thanks.

OK so June's Patch Tuesday is here.  It appears that I was navigating the security bulletin pages as they were being updated.  But here's what I got:

OS Critical and Important Updates

KB3157569, KB3160352, KB3161561, KB3161664, KB3161949, KB3161958, KB3164033, KB3164035

PDF Reader (already installed)
KB3157569

.NET 3.5
KB3142025

IE10
KB3160005

Abode Flash Player
KB3157993

So how did I do?  The updates did install (except that I do not have .NET 3.5, so that was not installed).  The PDF Reader updates cites that I've already installed it.  I'll have to search this thread after posting it.

***** NEVER MIND ***** I see the duplication ...lol.  See the first update?

Just updated the repository with this months updates, and added a few updates for previous months that were in the security bulletin, but missing.

It's weird that this month there are no .NET Framework updates or Flash Player updates...

[Jody Thornton]

Well there was one for .NET v3.5 and there was a Flash update. (KB3157993)

Both those updates are from last month, and the Flash update was quickly replaced by the newer KB3163207.

The security bulletin for this month's updates doesn't mention Flash or .NET updates, that's why I said there are non for this month: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/ms16-jun

[Jody Thornton]

Oh wow, the .NET update appeared in this month's bulletin list.  They may have been updating pages a lot while I was trying to download the updates.

Well, feel free to double-check my work.  I hope I did correctly this time around.
