AutoPatcher Hotfix thread

This thread will list all the required patches to bring a Windows Vista SP1/Server 2008 x86/x64 system up to date. It will be used as AutoPatcher's hotfix archive, but it could also serve as a reference list.

You have to use APUP, see the announcements section.

[Erik Ramey]

April security updates added to the Vista pack today

[jaymasta]

wating for Windows Vista Feature Pack for Wireless
942567 -x32 & x64

and why don't have DremeScene ?

[Crisso2Face]

Why dose AutoPatcher for Vista dosen`t have the ultimate extras components? You know... hold`em, dream scene, etc? Pls replay...

[Erik Ramey]

This is because the extra's are for Ultimate ONLY which come from Microsoft directly. They will not be included in AutoPatcher

[Crisso2Face]

[jaymasta]

Some extras directly from microsoft
Sound Scheme x86

Sound Scheme x64

[Erik Ramey]

@jaymasta

• Yes these extras are available directly from Microsoft
  
• Yes they will install on any version of Vista
  
• No they will not be included with AutoPatcher out of legal concerns. Vista Ultimate extras are not available via download.microsoft.com to the general public.

[jaymasta]

what you can tell about THIS

all extras possible download from here

to install *.cab need *.batfile
create *.txt and copy this inside what is down and rename to*.bat file

@Echo Off
Title Installing Windows Vista Updates
For %%F In (MSU\*.msu) Do Call :msin %%F
For %%A In (CAB\*.cab) Do Call :kbin %%A
Shutdown.exe -r -t 1
Exit
:msin
Start /Wait %1 /quiet /norestart
:kbin
Start /Wait pkgmgr /ip /m:%1 /quiet /norestart
GoTo :EOF
Exit

create near folder CAB or MSU if need install MSU and put all updates inside
after installation PC restart automatically

Or other way

Installation file .cab (updates)

Run command.

expand,
expand "cab name" -f:* "folder name"

install,
pkgmgr /ip /m:"folder where it expanded"

all what you download from microsoft from windows update loacated in *.cab in folder c:/windows - now I don't remember exactly but you can find yourself....

Nice find and an interesting read.

Hey Erik,
been wondering about some updates on server 2008 x64 that were installed via ms update but don't exist in your list
don't know if any is hardware specific or private, so I'm just reporing the updates installed but not included in autopatcher
here it goes:

949961 Scheduled shadow copy creation tasks do not run on a clustered Windows Server 2008 file server after a failover occurs
http://support.micro...om/?kbid=949961
950636 FIX: SQL Server 2005 is not installed on a Windows Web Server 2008-based system
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950636
950917 A kernel dump file is not analyzable on a computer that is running an x86-based edition of Windows Server 2008 or a 32-bit version of Windows Vista Service Pack 1
http://support.micro...om/?kbid=950917
936181 Vulnerability in Microsoft XML Core Services Could Allow Remote Code Execution (936227)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms07-042.mspx
950050 Description of the update for the release version of the Hyper-V technology for Windows Server 2008
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950050

the last one is the just released final version of hyper-v if anyone is interested
that's the list of an updated system up to now, don't know if any of them is replaced or obsolete
thanx again
keep up the great work

[Erik Ramey]

Thanks for the heads-up. I have these updates on my to-do list. Problem is a current heat wave which I'm trying to stay away from the computer. I'll have them up around mid-week.

[Erik Ramey]

I already have this included in the pack which it should have been detected after you installed dotnet 1.1sp1. Did you run AP after you completed the initial update and a reboot? Run AP again and see if you find it under your Critical Updates.

[Erik Ramey]

Will need to coordinate a parent module update with the other maintainers before the XML update can be added. This will be done in the near future.

[zepaddicted]

Hey Erik
thanx for the quick update, everything is added ok
(talking about heatwave, what about 40+C up to 43C midweek outside and 3 pc fans blowing off the 60+C of the cpu inside the room? I know what you mean, believe me)
so no pressure for you or the whole team whatsoever, that was not my intention

+1 for me for Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1 Service Pack 1 (KB929729) not installing
on a fresh install of server 2008 x64 on hyperv (after installling dotnet feature and running autopatcher-rebooting twice)
but still autopatcher shows a lot more updates than ms update , both critical and recommended (about 12 updates show up in autopatcher on a fully patched system)

{and a question gyus,what is wrong with this?
[img=http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/2650/capture1lz0.th.jpg]
any clues?}
oops I didn't see the relevant topic in the forum ... sorry...
anyway, seems the communication with kaspersky really paid off since the false positive is removed
but still the 7 Trojan-Dropper.Win32.VB.bag "detections" at virustotal doesn't look that good
http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/815aa27...cd00c621281c382
so... any clues?

thanx again
