I've just installed W7 Ultimate (on a test machine) using an integrated ISO I built with NTLite. However, there still at least 100 updates available from Microsoft, so I'll do another integration.
But I'm confused.
The first integration included Updates obtained via Windows Updates Downloader.
All of those had names like 'Windows6.1-KB2872339-x64.msu'
For the new integration, I downloaded the 100 missing updates from the Microsoft Catalog site.
Each one of these came in its own folder, and the files all have a much longer name.
Example:
Folder name: 'Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2803821)'
File name: 'AMD64-all-windows6.1-kb2803821-v2-x64_d89c709a7908f771a78e27933081f269c2abfb9d.msu'
I intend to merge the two collections of Update files.
My questions:
1) Should I remove the second lot from their folders?
2) What's the significance of the longer names of the second group?
I'm wondering if perhaps they always have long names in their 'native' state and Windows Updates Downloader abbreviates them for some reason?
Advice, please.
