Windows-Update-Checker5.01.002.2110 Beta / 3.01.002.2015

Windows-Update-Checker (also known as Komm's Update Checker) is a simple application designed to scan your computer for Windows Updates, including those that are missing and those which can be removed if they are faulty and cause system stability issues.It uses (DISM Deployment Imaging Servicing Management) for acquiring some system info, a command-line tool that's built into Windows, along with CSVFileView to generate reports, a free app made by another developer.

Checks for installed, missing and removable Windows updates

To avoid file reading errors, it's best to start the tool with administrative rights applied. If you run the matching edition for your operating system, then Windows-Update-Checker should automatically detect it and create the packages file without any trouble.As soon as the packages file contents are compared to the Windows updates installed on your computer, the program reveals useful information in the main window, such as the total found packages, Internet Explorer version, RSAT, WMF, HybridCloudStorage, telemetry details, and other additions like WinHelp and LockDown Manager.

Tick the packages you want to install

More technical details and options become available when continuing to the next panel. For instance, Windows-Update-Checker can be asked to check for various feature packages, such as IIS, NFS and NET35, to remove superseded updates, and to use force when attempting to set up LDR packages.Missing updates can be then processed. You can set the path to the repository and working folders, allow the tool to create an update removal option, and so on.The tool is not oriented toward casual users looking for a simple software solution when it comes to checking the system to see if it has all the update packages released by Microsoft. However, it provides comprehensive details for expert users, helping them install missing components and even troubleshooting. Unfortunately, it doesn't currently have an edition optimized for Windows 10,
