XPSP1 Recommended Updates List

**ahmedramzi** · March 22, 2004

I have installed all the critical & recommended updates. Now I need a list for the recommended ones as I'd like to add them in my unattended CD..

I've searched the forums, but I didn't find such thing.. any idea?

YOu could try and go to the Windows Update Corporate or Windows Catalog and have it list them for you.
