If one installs a hotfix through the GUI, it is clearly visitable through the add/remove area of control panels. Is there a way to verify which of the hotfixes have been installed on unattended setup (using the svcpack.inf method) without using windows update?

Thanks all!

use a ms tool which is called qfecheck!

this checks which hotfix is installed and which should be reinstalled!

Thanks, I'll give it a shot... does it let users know which should be installed? Why does m$ require us to run a service to use windows update? I find that extreme. Seems like all they would need to do is simply publish a list of fixes with download links.
