it's like playing a game of update ping-pong! :d

yea it is
bait and switch..... I'm still waiting for kb2990214 to disappear and do a little razzle dazzle

Hey all, I am not sure whether I should post this here or on update forum. But here it goes:

I ran "get-hotfix -id KB3035583,KB2952664,KB2976978,KB3021917,KB3044374,KB2990214" from powershell as told in 1st post and it only found 3 updates. I already had 1 hidden so that makes 4. Add KB3022345 to the list as well (not listed in the 1st post). I have 5 hidden updates, a manual search doesn't show anymore updates. So what happened to the missing ones?

To wrap it up:
KB 2990214 - was already hidden
-----------
KB 3022345 - not in list, uninstalled and hidden
-----------
KB 2952664
KB 3021917 - These were found with above command, uninstalled and hidden
KB 3035583

Hey Callender, thanks for the reply.

I don't know if you can hide an update that is installed :)

I uninstalled the ones I found in Installed Updates page, then did a manual search, as WU found and offered them again, I hid them.

So I am missing 2 updates, which are neither hidden, nor installed. Also not offered with a manual search.

2 of the updates mentioned in the first post is for Windows 8 and 8.1 which might explain it

I'll update the first post and make that more clear, and also add 3022345.

Ah nice hehe, thanks for clearing that out and updating the first post.:)

I uninstalled them from Installed Updates screen of WU without any issues.
