Bad news is that I have a lot of work to do for the next year and half (at least) because the good news is that Win Toolkit got approved to be my final year project. I will write an article so you guys know what to expect from this apart from a much better program.   :albert:  :graduated:
 
You think Win Toolkit is great now? It's only just begun! I have to prepare to rewrite everything with efficiency, concurrency and simplicity in mind. Oh god the paperwork is going to be fun (sarcasm)

General and Security Updates are either GDR only or GDR+LDR
you can easily install those normally (without LDR mode) to get GDR branch
and you may include/count Platform & Platform Updates & IE11/10 into this
 
Hotfixes however, some are LDR only, and the rest are GDR+LDR
managing those will be tricky for you
 
anyway, if you want to only have GDR updates, it's better you stick to what Windows Update offers 
or you may install "General, Security, Platform, Platform Updates, IE11 Cabs, IE11 Updates, WUClient" in normal mode, then go to Windows Update and see what else it offers and download them

Hi Lego,
 
I just tested the installer (VM):
it's OK, but people should know, they should install it in user-modus (NOT express) and de-select the installation of the awesome-bar and search-engine,
otherwise they get some not wanted-software.
 
Silent-Switches are: /S /NCRC.
With this switches no other software has been installed.
 
And a small bug have I already found:
uninstalling the program the folder WinToolkit on C: and WinToolkit-RunOnce (.log, .exe, .cfg) have not been deleted.
 
Regards, Thiersee

new release: fixed a bug in extract update*.cab (for WinNT6.x Vista/Seven/8.*/Next. As always in Windows XP "msdelta.dll" file - WindowsXP-MSCompPackV1 - KB927374 - must be present in system)

General - Security - Hotfix.. are the main updates that are safe to use for all systems

regarding the difference between Additional & Extra Categories, the reason for having those two categories is for better organizing and to ease the download process for the average user

Additional Updates Category aims to include the "Special" updates that are common or most useful
this includes:

Updates for Specific Features that does not exists in All Windows Editions:
 




Updates or Packages that adds more features or have special functionality:





Extra Updates Category will contain the rest of additional updates
this includes:

Packages that adds more features or have special functionality but not needed for most users:





Updates or Packages that has newer releases:

1) deintergrate is not possible because the addon set and modifies registry settings in the image
but you could try to integrate newer version in image contains older addon version, let me know if it's working 
 
2) as bphlpt explained, .NET 3.5 Family is a completely separate package software than .NET 4.x Family

(2) Unlike in XP, earlier ".NET's" are now part of the OS, and are not designed to be removed, though I think they can be.  And like XP, while .NET 4.5.1 completely replaces 4.5 and 4.0, it does not totally replace 3.5.1 and earlier in the sense that if you did remove 3.5.1 and earlier from your Win7 install, and a poorly written app looked specifically to see if 2.0 or 3.0 or 3.5 was installed, that app would fail even if you had 4.5.1 installed.  At least that's the way I understand how things work.
 
For (1), I'll let abodi1406 or someone else that knows more than I do about this particular addon answer that definitively, but my opinion is that when you do a new build each month or whatever, and you have new hotfixes, addons, tweaks, etc., you are better off starting from scratch, rather than trying to remove the outdated ones and add the new ones in their place.
 
Cheers and Regards

Something simple then. I could add that tonight

This was made using Rick's hep and guidance.  AFAIK, the essential difference is this is an addon while Rick's is a silent installer.  Once installed, the results should be the same.
 
Cheers and Regards

Note:
 
Not to mention its enormous size, KB947821 should not be used offline at all (integrated or silent install), it's ment only for verifying Online system Updates and Packages

@Lego: If you move IE and all the related updates/addons to the end of the integration process, you should not worry about prerequisites.
That's the smartest and simplest way , because months after months, more and more updates will be superseded and because of this the list of prerequisites will be constantly changing.
 
Win Toolkit 1.4.1.27 does not recognize IE11 cabs and let me integrate them at the end: that works beautifully !
 
 
Because an image worth thousand words:
 

KB2726535 is superseded by KB2768486 & KB2905454
 
The IE11 prerequisites components of KB2726535 is superseded by KB2768486, and KB2905454 completes the supersedence
 
so, KB2768486 becomes the new prerequisite instead of KB2533623 & KB2731771
 
BTW, those KB article are not accurate, if you want to see the actual or complete list of prerequisites check SETUPDOWNLOADLIST.txt that is included with IE11.exe package (after you extract it)

@crashfly, I think you might be a little confused. abbodi1406 DID create his own thread, this one, about his own 'self created "add-on"', which he made with help and advice from Ricktendo, and abbodi1406 is not the one having problems with it, mattew is. Did you think that this was one of Ricks's threads, either this one or this one? They are all named very similarly so it would be an easy mistake to make. I have almost made the same mistake myself. You are correct that Rick makes silent installers, which I personally prefer, but, though I haven't used this one myself, I believe that abbodi1406's entry is an addon, at least it is named as one and Rick did not dispute that designation. And in this three page thread no one else has disputed it either.
Cheers and Regards

My apologies on that bphlpt.  I got a little exuberant on people complaining about stuff in the wrong thread.  That and I jumped all over the wrong person.
 
Apologies to abbodi1406.
 
As for mattew, he should post in the appropriate thread (or create his own).  In that post he should include more information about what he was trying to do.

It is an addon, it could be added in the addon tab.

KB2844286 is for 3.5.1 not 4.5

Great work!
Are you update this addon?

My bad...I rebuilt installer with the SFX from the x86 only installer.
Currently uploading proper installers
For the time being you can try and extract the installers and run:

Setup.exe /x86 /x64
