Hi,
when the patch 903235 is installed on a XP SP1 (or Win2000) system then
Windows Registry is not updated by all.
Neither the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates
nor
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\HotFix
is changed.
These are the keys where Windows notes that a patch was successfully
installed.
My question is:
does anyone knows why this patch makes no 'traces' in registry while
its installation?
I have to know it because I install patches in an unattended way and
need know if they were installed or not. To check it, I look at the
regkeys given above.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Andy.
P.S. When installed on XP SP2 or Windows Server 2003 the patch
installation works properly, i.e. the corresponding regkeys are created!
