2 XP critical updates that keep appearing unapplied

Post by undro »

There are two updates under "Critical" that keep on reappearing as unapplied after installing them:

KB2834904-v2 (Media Format Runtime 11...)
KB2934207 (Remove & Disable End of Service...)

BTW, why's Disable End of Service under "Critical"? :)

End of Service thing still shows. But maybe items just don't hide, as long as their parent component is present? And it makes sense for some things. KB2834904-v2 is probably an update relevant only with WMP11 (or 9?), but should show even when can't be installed in case WMP11 is also chosen to be installed.

Will look into amending the apms to hide the items, will keep you posted

The EOS notification is just to uninstall/disable the notification for those who may have had it installed by Windows Update...
KB2834904-v2 is for Windows Media Player 11

I guess the WMP one shouldn't be hidden, or else it will require running AP multiple times to apply the new patches that appeared.

My "feature suggestions" from the other thread (color coding, icons, etc.) might make it clearer why some things show but can't be installed, or what dependency they have.
