Incroyable HULK Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Are you certain you can delete them? SVCPACK.INF is calling them during the Installation process... I don't think it can work without them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozan319 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 as i said on the second post i deleted them and windows update didnt show this updates. i deleted only exe files from svcpack folder not catalog files and no warning message and no error.

RyanVM Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 , now try running MBSA. Not to mention that you won't have the QFE versions of the files in your $hf_mig$ folder, potentially making future upgrades more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
