pennsylvaniaron Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 I just ran a "CLASSIC" wtk install. I used all the classic updates from the 6/22/16 uls in the first post. SFC passes, however IE11 did not get integrated (its an exe in my update list and got a green check) and there are 73 updates in WU after installation. shouldn't there be over 225 CLASSIC updates while there are only about 153 in the 6/22 UL? What am I missing? regards... Quote
n0nsense Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) To integrate IE11, you'll need the .cab file IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134.cabhttp://download.microsoft.com/download/C/0/1/C0186BE0-0ADB-4AF3-B97D-11FCEBE6BD68/IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x86.cab IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x64.cabhttp://download.microsoft.com/download/5/C/7/5C7074F0-CE81-4612-902F-DAAF3061B959/IE11-Windows6.1-KB2841134-x64.cab Edited June 24, 2016 by n0nsense Quote

n0nsense Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 Would it make more sense to include the .cab files in the UL, or stick with .exe ?? Quote
pennsylvaniaron Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 yes I forgot to add the common updates. getting bleary eyed here. and thx for the .cab link (and that article on why sfc fails with the convenience rollup). when doing the classic do the same prerequisites have to be done? right now 3020369, 2533552, 2603229, 3046269 (in that order) are in the silent list. regards...

Thiersee Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 If you use only one language makes it no difference, the time to integrate is almost the same too. If you need more languages, then is the exe in my opinion better, because you have to care about one file pro language. Quote

Souffi Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 Je ne suis peut-être pas aussi perfectionniste que vous, mais pourquoi ne pas simplement attendre la publication du dernier Rollup mensuel ? Une fois déterminées avec certitude les mises à jour qui ne sont pas intégrées dans le Convenience Rollup, et sachant que certaines mises à jour n'apparaitront pas dans les Rollup mensuels (.NET Framework 4.6.1, mises à jour RunOnce et mises à jour pour IE11…), il suffirait de créer une image qui intègre tous les composants absents, le Convenience Rollup lui-même avec ses prérequis et autres mises à jour indispensables, pour n'avoir par la suite, en cas de réinstallation, qu'à appliquer le dernier Rollup mensuel sans tenir compte des 'caprices' de WU qui réclame la réinstallation de mises à jour anciennes remplacées. Si on fait confiance à WU pour les mises à jour "traditionnelles", on peut bien aussi la lui accorder pour les Rollup ? Cela simplifierait singulièrement le travail puisqu'il suffirait, de créer une seule image (et non une chaque mois) pour pouvoir ensuite l'utiliser et lui appliquer le dernier Rollup mensuel à la manière de Windows 10. Tout bon ou tout faux ? Quote

The size of my ISO is 5.02gb so I will probably have to use a dvd DL if installing non usb flash. I just find it easier using the classic because you don't have to remember prerequisites and other rules. to each his own. been a very educational experience. thx much. regards...

rhahgleuhargh Posted June 24, 2016 Author Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) @Souffi Non, malheureusement, ce n'est pas comme cela que ça marche... ce serait trop beau... En général je ne sors une version des ULs que pour le Patch Tuesday. Là c'est différent, le Rollup de juin corrige la lenteur d'accès à WU, il fallait donc une mise à jour des ULs. Pour ce qui est du Convenience Rollup Pack d'avril, le problème est justement qu'il est imparfait, parce qu'il nécessite des prérequis et une trentaine de mises à jour antérieures pour obtenir un ISO à jour. Un vrai Convenience Rollup digne de ce nom aurait dû suffire en étant intégré seul pour avoir un ISO à jour (je ne compte pas les mises à jour de mai juin). Normalement, je devrais virer KB2533552 RunOnce (partie du SP1) pour la prochaine mise à jour des ULs, il ne restera donc plus que KB2603229 en x64 et KB3046269. A titre perso j'ai abandonné les intégrations classiques pour ne faire que celles via le Rollup (ce qui est d'ailleurs recommandé par M$). Gain de temps et de place. Le Rollup mensuel est le nouveau mode de mise à jour pondu par M$ qui consiste en fait à rassembler en une seule toutes les mises à jour optionnelles intermédiaires (pour le moment les mises à jour prioritaires du Patch Tuesday paraissent une par une). Cela n'a donc rien à voir avec le système de mise à jour de Windows 10 (une mise à jour cumulative de plus en plus grande chaque mois, une mise à jour "service stack", et une mise à jour Flash Player), qui est beaucoup plus simple à maintenir. Chaque Patch Tuesday supprime des mises à jour précédentes : si tu mets à jour ton ISO tous les trois quatre mois ces mises à jour obsolètes seront incluses et seront donc à nettoyer après installation. Ce n'est pas super propre comme technique, le but étant d'installer un ISO le plus propre possible. Pour moi, l'avantage de créer un ISO chaque mois est surtout de pouvoir identifier toutes les mises à jour inutiles. Après, DNF461 Silverlight, ne sont pas livrés nativement avec 7, ce sont donc des mises à jour à part que je ne maintiens pas (c'est icare qui s'en charge).

n0nsense Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 @rhahgleuhargh Thank you for all your hardwork with these Update Lists. I do have some time set aside each week for personal projects if you want me to test/support you to maintain these lists. I updated the 'hideUpdates' .vbs script, posted earlier. If you find it to be an improvement you may use it as you wish, change it etc. Kind Regards Quote
Souffi Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 @ rhahgleuhargh OK, effectivement ç'était trop beau et surtout trop simple. Quote

Does somebody know what is causing this issue? The classic method works without any problems. Hi, The reason is that NTLite doesn't carry on the new names of KB in the ULs (WTK respects the order 1-KBxxx.msu, 2- 3- 4- and so on), so it installs the Rollup before some updates that need to be integrated first. Using NTLite you should do a first pass with prerequisites + updates before rollup, and an other with Rollup + updates after Rollup. Quote
n0nsense Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 @rhahgleuhargh Would it help if I put together a simple script to help some people with the integration?? There are plenty of tools out there, but some people might just need a little help. Quote

With th eRollup, some superseeded updates are asked and installed by WU, removed when you do a deep-clean, and reasked and installed, and so on. That's why the 2 DNF3.5.1 updates are added for the Rollup Hide W10 script. Quote

rhahgleuhargh Posted June 25, 2016 Author Posted June 25, 2016 @Thiersee It's the better solution but the pb is that the total size of all files uploaded is limited at each post. Not sure if it will be possible. Quote
