First of all, let me say that I realy like working with WinToolkit and appreciate all the hard work that LegoLash20 has put in this this awsome program....Not to mention the pro-active members in the forum. I am pretty much confortable with my knowledge with most aspects of W7T. However, I am totally baffled on the subject of Update Intergration. I have taken a look at the update catalog, but I have not idea how to sort out what updates I need. The only thing I've been able to decern is that they are all Post windows 7 SP1 updates. I have no clue which ones superceed others or which ones are critical, important, etc. I have spend a number of hours today going thru the forums here, and over at RyanVM's to find some decent documentation that would help me to undertand the complex mechanics of windows updates in relation to W7T. The only thing that came close to reasonable is a tutorial that i found here... http://www.ryanvm.ne...opic.php?t=9024 This tutorial was working out for me till i reached the first step -- downloading SoLorS updates which were all nicely rolled up and ready to go, at least so it seemed. The links are now dead and the tutorial hasn't been updated with anything new, Proceeding to the next available source for getting the update pack only confused me even more. ... KUC, etc... I would realy like to intergrate Win7 hotfixes into my media without having to resort to using multiple tools. Can anyone with a solid foundation in the mechanics of W7 updates and W7T point me to a tut or doc that can explain how to sort out and identify the updates and tell me the basics of do's and dont's with respect to intergrating 'this update' with 'that update' and and so on. Much appreciated and thanks in advance.

If this is the wrong forum, please let me know. When Solor updates are added via clean install or existing installation are they recognized as installed by MS update? in other words, even though I don't see Solor updates in the update log. Will MS updates know they are there and won't re-download and install them?

Hi Lego, Minor typo in Solor updates function: when opening the form, the dropdown displays "Please select a catagory..." This should be category. Regards, Eric666 PS Maybe it is wise to open again a "Small things" thread for finalizing the RC?

Hello. When I select Windows 7 x64 in SoLoR downloader it offers me 359 Updates to download. But when I do a fresh Windows 7 install and use Windows Update, there are only offered 61 Updates to me. Why does SoLoR have 298 more? And how are the Updates integrated? I somewhere read that just all the Hotfix-Installations are executed whilst the normal installation progress so it is not really a time advantage against manual installation. Is that true? Is there a difference in what order Update-Integration and Component Removal are being used? I mean, when I remove some components an then integrate updates which normally would update a component I just removed, will this update be ignored then? Or should I always use Component Removal after Update Integration just to be sure? Thanks
