Windows update problem

[Romppe]

Hi,

 

I started using wintoolkit again after a little break from it.

 

I am doing windows 8.1 Pro installation and everything else if working as supposed but I have a little problem with integrating windows updates to my image.

 

I used Alphawawes Downloader and downloaded and integrated all the updates it offered to me.

 

Now I did an installation to test computer. After image installation I went to windows update and it offered me ten updates, that was ok. I installed those and rebooted computer.

But after reboot I went back to windows update and this time it offered me 61 important updates and 28 optional!

 

Did I do something wrong or why there is so many windows updates to my computer now?

 

btw. I remember last time I used Wintoolkit, I integrated Windows Updates using Update Retriever, is that better way or what should I do?

I'm pretty sure alphawaves download and WHD does not offer EVERY single update unfortunately. It's why I have to run Windows Update when I make the updated exclusive ISOs

WHDownloader only includes the update and hotfixes that result in the most up-to-date version of each file. That means that if a hotfix's files supersede (are newer than) those in a normal previous security update, the security update isn't downloaded. However, Windows Update logic sometimes still asks for the security update. It most cases, it isn't the full update, just a skeleton (you can tell by the size of the update in windows Update).

 

What I and some others do is:

1. Note which updates Windows Updates wants to install that are not in WHD.

2. Download these manually and put in a WU_Satisfy folder. (updates required to 'satisfy Windows Update').

3. Re-run Wintoolkit, but integrate the WU_Satisfy folder first.

Thanks for your answers.

 

I dowloaded all the Windows updates that was available to my Computer and then integrated those to my wintoolkit image.

 

It's working now, offering only two updates after clean install

 

btw. at first this was not working also, but then I figured that I had to put Windows 8.1 update 1 related .cab files  to prerequisite updates. After that evertyhing went as I hoped.
