download all updates for XP in one go?

Carol Haynes:
Ooops - my mistake - because it is in C:\Windows it doesn't seem to show up in the normal windows search - I have got it and it is full of hotfix uninstallers (even though I regularly use CrapCleaner).

Darwin:
Yeah... I've got it too. I was looking in my user "windows" folder... Doh!  :-[

$hf_mig$ does not contain uninstallers. All the $NtUninstallKBxxxxxxx folders are uninstallers for Windows updates and can be safely deleteted if you are not gonna need to uninstall them one day.

Doug Knox has a xp hotfix backup removal utility.

Carol Haynes:
Well it may not contain uninstallers but here is just one of 97 subfolders on my system:



89 subfolders contain a file called SPUNINST.EXE, which certainly look like an uninstaller, the other 8 folders are empty.

In this example the folder name refers to a Windows XP security patch which is applied to WinXP SP1 and SP2
