Alanoll Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 Now let's go through and see what's wrong with this pack....A. CAT files are not installed and as such WFP will not recognize themB. Registry entries not added where neccesary. WU will still show them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WU will still show them.Dude you're wrongggggggggggggggggggggggggg!!!Replace those file in your i386 installation folder. It has nothing to do with the hotfixes update as you used to install using switches and other crap...You don't need registry entries, and cat...As I said, simply replace the same files in your i386 installation folder and you're good to go...This small package doesn't include 5 hotfixes, and one of those is update for windows messenger which is nothing but new executable file which could be packed using makecab and replaced in SP2 installation folder, and after you integrate SP2 into Windows XP you have patched windows messenger as well..

SiMoNsAyS Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 (edited) i haven't tested this so i just speak from my knowledge: without .cat or reg entries that probe you've installed hotfixes there's no go. probably you checked it on an already updated system.also i suppose this is english located so BE AWARE non-english unattenders.next, you haven't said what hotfixes you included that would be helpful.finally just 2 advices, first don't use 3 posts to remark what you said and don't clone your post just to attrack users attention.don't wanna offend, just my 2 cents Edited February 11, 2005 by SiMoNsAyS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you could sell this to Microsoft? It would save them a lot of time and bandwidth. All we can do is cry that we never thought of this.
