From: Stewart Berman on 5 Sep 2009 01:38 Windows 7 RTM Visual Studio 2008 This is a new build. I installed Office 2007 and Visual Studio 2008 and applied all updates. On the Windows Update settings page I have specified Install Options Automatically and have everything checked. Today I saw something about Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and checked Windows Update. It said I had all important and recommended patches applied. I check my update history and it showed three hot fixes for Visual Studio 2008 but not SP1. I then downloaded the Visual Studio SP1 installer and it is happily installing. Why didn't the automatic update feature of Windows Update pick up Visual Studio SP1? The manual check for available updates didn't show it either -- why?

What were the three "hotfixes"? Are they SP1 Prerequisite updates?

Are they SP1 Prerequisite updates? The three hot fixes were installed before SP1 was released. I don't think they were prerequisites. KB952241 KB971091 KB973674 KB952241 is no longer listed in control panel's installed updates. I think it was replaced by SP1. Please note that the log shown from Windows Update does not match the installed updates via control panel. Windows Update does not show any patches that were not applied through it. For example VS 2008 SP1 does not show up in Windows Update as being applied but it does in control panel's installed updates. >Try post here instead: > >Windows 7 Forums This is a Windows Update issue -- not a Windows 7 issue.
