How many updates do you have in your installed list?

I'm up to 132 this morning. It's been a week since I installed 32 bit after 64 bit SP2 install wouldn't boot. 32 bit SP2 went in last night and all is good.

On the "Uninstall an Update Page" it says "Currently installed updates 113."
When I go to "Review Your Update History" I gave up counting at 200.
Why the difference?

Could it be that some are overwritten [for bugs etc.] by later Updates?:huh:

If u open uninstall an update page, it wont display all the updates it will only display uninstallable updates.

See the image below

Those i highlighted are definitions for windows defender and you cannot uninstall the definition updates. As a result those updates will not be shown in uninstall an update windows. But you can see those things in your update history. :)

Likewise, you cannot uninstall the critical and some security patches. So it will not be counted on uninstall an update page.

This is the reason behind the mismatch :)

Hope it will clarify you :)

And after all this is the best forum to ask all the questions :cool:

You are right on both points.
Yep I should have realised why the mismatch. :o
Thanks.
