GuestI installed the October MSRT, but no KB3177467 (ver 2) showed.
So I further installed the 5 MS Office 2010 updates and KB3177467 immediately showed up and was checked, however, then the WUpdate Optional category is totally missing. PK made mention in one of the many posts that installing KB3177467 would/should bring the Optional category back. Is this true?
I am holding at the Checked KB3177467 stage pending further instructions, or should I proceed to install it and await further instructions from here?
OP here,
So this morning I check for updates (I have KB3177467 V1 installed from 2016), the previously Checked KB3177467 V2 is gone, the Optional Update category (with KB’s) is back, and KB4462923 is showing and checked!
From what I am reading here, I should install KB4462923 and afterwards KB3177467 V2 will reappear checked which should then also be installed – correct?

AskWoody_MVPIt will be interesting to know if KB3177467-v1 is missing, KB4462923 fails as it did earlier.

Managernow it’s back as-is, no real metadata change or explicit dependency on SSU
Perhaps the dependency has been removed and v2 will just install after the Rollup without error.
If you are doing Group B, though, I would be sure it’s there first, just to be on the safe side.

AskWoody Lounger@PKCano: I just now located this topic, and noted that KB3177467 appears to be an issue?? I have never seen anything relating to this “Stack” update, so I will try to search to see if it perhaps was installed quite some time ago. Difficult when one has vision problems, however your outstanding advice has helped me more than I can ever express. Thank you once again.

AskWoody Lounger@PKCano: I have searched and searched for the information you sent to me, and have not been able to locate it. I am attempting to get back to “where I should be” since I had a hiatus which put me into “limbo”.
In the interim I have checked for updates and only show TWO “Important” and they are as follows: KB4481480 (2019-01) Security & Quality Rollup for .NET
KB4480970 (2019-01) Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Win7x64
They are both checked.
Only 2 Optionals, none checked.
Is it safe to install the two Important updates which I listed? That is all that I have pending at the present time.
I sincerely apologize for being unable to locate my references which you provided for me, PKC. If I can only get back to “where I belong” at this point in time it would be wonderful. Your patience, outstanding expertise, and knowledge are, as always, most sincerely appreciated,not only myself, but all of us. Thank you once again. 🙂

Guest@PKCano: Thank you so much for the prompt reply – – – – what a relief that is for me. There should be “special AWARDS” for all of the wonderful assistance you provide to the users of AskWoody! I wish it could be much more than “thank you”, however I feel very strongly about the absolutely wonderful help you provide to us all. Thank you once again, for being “One in a Million”!

AskWoody LoungerI have three freshly installed Windows 7 machines. I cannot get any of the monthly rollups on any of the three systems to install. They get to 15% and then roll back.
They have KB3177467 v2 installed. If I try to get it from the Microsoft Update catalog and install it, it says it already exists.
Existing machines have the rollups applied with no issues.
What am I doing wrong on the three fresh machines? I appreciate any help.

Guest@dportenlanger , I think you are running into an old problem most of us have forgotten. Or at least I do not trust myself to walk through it. Fortunately, Canadian Tech himself has posted just today a reference to his work at Microsoft Answers. I believe it has the solution you seek. The key is two specific updates. But I’ll leave CT to explain.
See his post here on AskWoody:
https://www.askwoody.com/forums/topic/best-way-to-transfer-an-old-win7-pc-to-a-new-win10-vm/#post-230818Which also contains his link to the original Answers Forum installation guide.

GuestThat is another great solution. One with a more distant lifespan horizon. Worthy of further review in Woody’s blogpost, coincidentaly presented on November 7th.
There is also a lightly used section for Win8.1 here on AskWoody:
https://www.askwoody.com/forums/forum/askwoody-support/windows/windows-8-1/
I expect that to start getting more traffic in the future.

AskWoody MVPHello @Philomene123
Post #229487 might have the clearer answer:
If you have either v1 or v2 installed already, you should not have a problem with the Rollup or the SO. BUT, you will also need to install KB3177467 v2, it just need not be first if you have v1 already installed.
KB3177467 is a servicing stack update, and as such would show up when all other important updates are installed or hidden. You shouldn’t hide it. Install it by itself. Reboot. Microsoft says v2 reclassifies the update as security with a severity rating of critical. Servicing stack updates do not introduce telemetry, and should be installed.
Per Microsoft, there is a possible issue when rebooting: “During this restart, you may find yourself stuck on “Stage 2 of 2” or “Stage 3 of 3″. If you encounter this issue, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to continue to log on. This should occur only one time and does not prevent updates from installing successfully.”
