THE TITLE SHOULD BE KB911565. I CANT EDIT IT THOUGH SO CONSIDER KB911564 TO BE WRONG

Attached is the svcpack folder. When installation finishes, KB911565 is not installed. What I'm I doing wrong here?

That KB is related to WMP.

I've been trying to install that patch with SVCPACK and then install thru GPO WMP. It's not working.

I know there is a patch for WMP9 and WMP10. Check if you have the right version for the WMP you are installing.

It's maybe a problem where you have to get the application installed and rebooted before you can install your patch...

Personnaly, I've removed that patch. It's the only one that doesn't work in my scenario.

Hope this help!

[Nucleus]

I'm sure it's wmp10. I checked it.

[jfmartel]

Then I'm pretty sure you can't install the patch with after installing it....

You might want to check on Microsoft newsgroup to seek help from an MVP.

[Nucleus]

I don't get it. I can't install the patch for wmp10 after installing wmp10? Where's the logic in that?

[jfmartel]

Try it in a Virtual Machine

Install WMP10, then right after, install the patch. See if it works.

[Nucleus]

it works when the patch is installed afterwards, but not during unattended installation.

[jfmartel]

Then you might want to ask in Microsoft newsgroup to get help from an MVP. Maybe it has already been posted.

Microsoft Newsgroups

Good luck!

You can always use my or boooggy's WMP10 addon and directly slipstream WMP10 into your CD with 911565 already included

[Nucleus]

I know, thanks, but I prefer having all the Microsoft patches in the svcpack folder. It’s a way to keep things organized.

[RyanVM]

I think things are far more organized when there's nothing in the svcpack folder to install because the files are just "there" from the beginning

It's like talking to a wall, isn't it?

The same as when I try to explain your pack to Autopatcher users...

[RyanVM]

Meh, to each their own.

[Nucleus]

Can anyone take a guess what's wrong here? svcpack.inf installs media player 10 FIRST. THEN it starts installing patches. When it comes to installing KB911565 it does NOT install it. When windows boots and I manually install it with the same switches it installs just fine. Or when automatic update runs it downloads and installs it just fine.

[argon007]

You can install that update by using the [GuiRunOnce] section of winnt.sif.

the update will be installed on the first logon after installing windows.
