    Hi,

    How detect an Wusa update that it is installed?

    When you install an msu update and it is already installed, how does wusa detect that that it is installed and dont install the update.

    I have try with sysinternal tool, WindowsUpdate.log, registy. When you install an MSI you can use the msi guid.

    Since MSU packages are typically associated witih hotfixes, and hotfixes typically only involve one, or a very few, number of files, the best way to verify the presence of an MSU-based update is to review the file changes documented in the associated KB article and visually confirm their presence on the target system.

    And I would like to install it with SCCM 2012

    You should inquire in the System Center Configuration Manager Software Distribution forum.

    ok, maybe you right, but I have no problem with the SCCM part, I have problem with the nature of the .msu file. So I thought WSUS folks was the one to ask.

    Nope. MSU and WSUS have absolutely zero in common.

    Same problem, need to create detection method for sccm 2012 application deployment, otherwise all status messages will fail. Perhaps some registery key..?

    Please ask Configuration Manager questions in the appropriate Configuration Manager forum.

    Hi,

    one way would be to search for the Patch Code the registry and add this as powershell detection method:

    $str_PC = "{8E2CD0B5-0F4A-3ECD-98DA-3CC6B0428048}"

     Get-ChildItem HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall -rec -ea SilentlyContinue | foreach {
       $CurrentKey = (Get-ItemProperty -Path $_.PsPath)
       select-string $str_PC -input $CurrentKey -AllMatches | foreach {($_.matches)|select-object Value}
     }


    if ([System.IntPtr]::Size -eq 8) { 
    #"64-bit"
      Get-ChildItem HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall -rec -ea SilentlyContinue | foreach {
       $CurrentKey = (Get-ItemProperty -Path $_.PsPath)
        select-string $str_PC -input $CurrentKey -AllMatches | foreach {($_.matches) -ne $NULL | select-object value }

        
     }
     
     }
