hi thanks Mister X my english sucks , to have the tool to mark updates to avoid should i create a ini file? this file wumt_config.ini and add with wumt_config.ini and the setting above the tool marks the w8 and w7 update to avoid? thanks mister x
Yes you have to create an ini file. You have to add also the desired KBs to avoid, in this format: KB_1=3112336 So you will have a list like this: Code: [MarkedUpdates] KB_1=3112336 KB_2=3080149 KB_3=####### KB_4=####### KB_5=####### . . . Don't edit the [MarkedUpdatesColor] part.
hi Mister X but are these market update included in the program? for example update that does pust w8 and w7 to upgrade to w10 ? i'm thinking about the old nasty update i'm talking about a fresh install of w7 or w8 would great have it like portable tool thanks Mister X
Hi Mister X what do you think to let to collaborate all the users to add all the updates to exlude? thanks
Of course I don't mind. You can open a new thread for such compilation of telemetry/OSupgrade related updates for both Windows 8.x and 7 or look for one already opened, really don't know.
hi i know don't know very much this tool but we (all the users that want to do it) could add and create an ini files ,and upload in the forum could be a great ps i stopped the automatic update 1 year ago
Beyond the users themselves, who would bare the responsibility for determining just what earns an entry in WUMT's .ini file as an exclusion? ...and then future removals? FWIW, we already have public access to author/consultant Susan Bradley's "Patch Release Grid" at https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=C756C44362CD94AD!2257 Therefore, "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" -Satires of Juvenal
hi well there is Bork Tuesday, Any Problems Yet? , we can add from there there is almost nothing and i see you like latin
Although the Bork Tuesday thread may contain some value for many, (and I do respect the experiences of others) the thread simply is not representative of the entire global situation. Some may see that through the bottom-most spreadsheet tabs, terrific data goes back to December 2014. I like an ice cold six-pack and the wisdom that history teaches us even better! Lest I be grossly misunderstood, I have installed stupid user's WUMT on all my systems and I highly value its capabilities. Cheers to you mantra
hi i haven't excel installed , but i checked on another pc , there is a lot is there a way to download all the excel document ? thanks
Hello mantra: Return to Susan Bradley's Patch Release Grid at https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=C756C44362CD94AD!2257. Near the upper-right corner, click the Three Dots just beneath Sign in. From the menu, click Download. In the next window that opens, click the Save File radio button then click the OK button. The resultant downloaded/saved file, in your browser's default download directory, should be Patch%20release%20Grid%20.xlsx. HTH
thanks Patch%20release%20Grid%20.xlsx is only 183.347kb i should find an application to open it , i guess i will install libreoffice
Hello mantra: For anyone who really doesn't need to install OpenOffice/LibreOffice, a compatible spreadsheet viewer may suffice: How to obtain the latest Excel Viewer. HTH
@Mr. X I'm trying to update Win7 32 bit, from fresh install, all went well for a bunch of updates, then WU failed. Tried 360Total "patch up" limited success. Now MS WU will scan for updates, but won't complete scanning, 5hrs later it's still scanning. WU Minitool - does the same, just scans & scanning won't complete. Tried like everything Thanks Rico
@Rico When you do the initial check for updates it can take hours to complete. Just let it run, and in time it will complete. If you want, you can speed up the time it takes to check for updates by installing hte latest version of Windows Update Agaent and KBKB3102810. Have a look at this post.
After the clean install windows updated smoothly, found & installed, at or near, or around SP1 (SP1 installed), WU's went South. Now 360 total can see but cannot install, scanned for 24 hrs & it's still scanning. Tried all the Fix It's Spinrite hdd no errors SFC /scannow WU troubleshooter Windows stand alone installer hours just scanning tweaking.com repair last error was 0X800F081F tried regserv32 dll's found a few times while WU is scanning, services were off (not started) Bits, or occasionally WU, or Windows installer, tried starting all started re-scan. Just scanning for hours. Tried Win 10 update just scans. Thought similar to DISM online... , theat the stand alone would help but just scan. Tried MS download cannot install manually, as this brings up, MS standalone installer which just scans. Used File assassin on the dll associated with 0x800f081f, (saved copy), then run SFC /scannow. SFC did not replace the file regsvr fails here also
Update - I tried clean install of win 7 again, Sp1 installed, then got from WU "Windows Update Agent" 7.6.7600.320 installed, it resumed checking for up dates, error 80244019, try again error 8007000E. At Keyboard & Languages the option for Display Languages does not appear. Call M$ they tried many things & cannot fix. The solution now being tried, is from getintopc. c o m. Dl & install a one year old win7 home premium iso file. Format reinstall, in hopes this bypasses the previous problems.
Well after the relatively new DL & install of win 7, same problems, as before, WU did one or two updates error-ed, & scanned for many hours & still kept scanning. 360 Total found the updates 100+ installed one & quit. Now will try win10
I tried updating to win10, the install routine has two check for updates, to complete. It took this time approx 30 hrs. to complete the final check for updates, in win 10, install procedure. So far all those that advised patience & wait KUDO's you were correct! Thanks Rico All those hours checking for updates win 10, sitting at 0% completed seems broken
Hi, I would like to request a feature (assuming such an implementation was even possible). First the foundation of this request: I am running many Win7/Ent/SP1 PCs, which I keep fully patched. When there are problems with installing updates, the traditional approach has been to find and download the failing update(s) and install it/them manually. Recently, however, Microsoft has posted some updates that can be downloaded only from Microsoft Update and that can no longer be found and downloaded as a separate executable. Thus, if there's a problem with Windows Update, the file or files cannot be downloaded separately for manual install. So, would it be possible to add an "extraction" feature to WinUpMinitool's GUI that would allow the user to select a downloaded update and "extract" it to a specific folder so that it could then be manually installed?
