I just download and installed "UpdatePack7R2-22.2.10". It only included 2 new updates for Windows 7 Pro. x64. They were listed at the Simplix website as being the following:
After running the pack I found the following on checking what had been installed and what had been removed:
KB5010404 - This was installed to the system. (Which is as expected.)
KB5009610 - This was removed from the system. (It is also no longer in the update pack, which is what I would expect.)
KB5010798 - This was not removed from the system. (However, it is also no longer in the update pack.)
KB5010451 - This was installed to the system. (Which is as expected.)
KB5006749 - This was not removed from the system. (It is also no longer in the update pack, which is what I would expect.)
This is very strange. The 2 updates that were meant to be installed did get installed. However, for the updates they were meant to replace only 1 was removed from the system and 2 were left in place. Is this correct? Shouldn't Simplix be removing from the system all updates that came under what might be referred to as a 'replacement tag'?
Lastly, of the updates that were meant to be replaced is it okay for the user to manually uninstall them from the system? Or have they been left there by Simplix for some specific purpose?

As there was no response here I posted my query at MDL and got a response. Can be seen here: Simplix Pack to update Live Win7 System/ Integrate hotfixes into Win7 distribution | Page 210 | My Digital Life Forums
In summary: Simplix Pack does not remove already installed updates on a live system, it only installs new updates.
Well my query is solved after a fashion so I'll mark this thread as 'solved'.
