    How to get the date of the last Windows Update?


    Assume I am sitting in front of a Win7 computer (of a buddy).

    How do I get the date(s) of the last update installed for this Win 7 system?

    Be aware that there might be TWO different dates:

    - The date when the last update was installed through official, built-in (automatic) Update from Windows 7
    and secondly:
    - The date when the last update was installed manually by clicking on a downloaded KB patch or installed by external update packages/tools.

    Where do I find these dates in Windows 7 (pro)?

    Hi pstein,
    I believe you can locate your info in:
    C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log
