#NTLITE ADD FOLDER UPDATE#

If for some reason, the update that you need isn't in your WHDownloader directory, do a search on the Microsoft Update Catalog website. If it suggests KB976932 or KB3125574, ignore it and go with the other listed prerequisite as those are SP1 and the Convenience Rollup, respectively, neither of which you want in your update list. It will typically suggest multiple options. It will check the added updates and look for any missing pre-requisites. At this point you can also add other updates like native support for NVMe drives using KB2990941. By installing IE11 along with the other updates you won't run in to problems with it trying to launch a welcome screen or needing a reboot, which are the problems that they ran into in the original article.

NET exe install files as those need to be done post-installation. Click the Add button and browse to your NTLite updates folder. Once it's loaded, go to the Updates section. Note that I highly suggest using an SSD for NTLite as it makes everything go much faster!

Select the version that you want to update, like Professional, and select load. In NTLite, add the Windows 7 directory that you just copied. Also, NTLite will modify the files in this directory so keep a clean/stock copy elsewhere if you need to go back to it for some reason. Note that NTLite won't work with an ISO natively, so you'll need to temporarily mount it and copy everything. Grab your stock Windows 7 disc or ISO and copy its contents to a convenient directory. If you've never used it before, NTLite lets you do tons of customization, integrate updates and drivers, and do post installation of pretty much anything. Once you have all of the needed updates copied into a NTLite updates directory, fire up NTLite.

Step 5: Using NTLite to integrate the updates The easy way would be to make one text file, get rid of all of the garbage and only keep the KB numbers, then modify a script like this one on StackOverflow to do all of the copying for you. I initially rushed into things and did it the hard way, that is, I stepped through each update on the list and copied it from the WHDownloader directory to an NTLite updates directory.

Once you have your updates list, there are two different ways that you can proceed: the hard way and the easy way. We'll pick up where we left off in the previous article and continue with Ben's explanation of the procedure he follows.
