#WINDOWS 7 WINDOWS UPDATE CATALOG NOT WORKING HOW TO#

IвЂ™m not missing any security-only updates proper, and maybe the issue will get sorted out by next monthвЂ™s Patch Tuesday. I suppose I could manually uninstall KB4474419 in Control Panel and then manually install the new version I just downloaded, but the other two security updates Belarc had previously flagged are no longer missing (meaning that the slightly older version of KBKB4474419 hadnвЂ™t prevented them from being installed), so IвЂ™m inclined to let sleeping dogs lie for now. That update was internally dated, but it wouldnвЂ™t install because it identified itself as *already* installed. An Everything search of my system showed that the latest KB4474419 was dated, so I downloaded the 2019-08 KB4474419 from the Microsoft Update Catalog. Control Panel > Programs and Features > Installed Updates said KB4474419 was in fact installed but didnвЂ™t identify its date. However, Belarc Advisor flagged the KB4474419 update as missing.

Both of WSUS Offline UpdateвЂ™s two stages (download/вЂќgenerateвЂќ and install went without a hitch, and WPD (Windows Privacy Dashboard) showed that this monthвЂ™s security-only updates hadnвЂ™t snuck in any unwanted telemetry (unlike last monthвЂ™s). IвЂ™d previously read this article and checked the WSUS Offline Update download log to make sure that the August 2019 version of KB4474419 got downloaded. I have a freshly cloned system drive to fall back on in case my system gets borked, and it only takes me 5 minutes or so to swap it in, so IвЂ™m willing to take more chances with updating and fewer chances with security vulnerabilities than, say, Woody Leonhard of AskWoody.) (I usually wait a bit longer for more fallout to emerge, but once again, this monthвЂ™s RDP vulnerabilities are apparently вЂњwormableвЂќ even if RDP isnвЂ™t in use or some-such.
