About

A module for retrieving the latest Windows 10 / Windows Server 2016, 2019, Semi-annual Channel Cumulative Updates, Servicing Stack Updates, .NET Framework Cumulative Updates, the Monthly Rollups for 8.1 / 7 (and Windows Server 2012 R2, 2008 R2), Windows Defender updates and the latest Adobe Flash Player updates from the Microsoft Update History pages. In addition, the module provides a function for downloading the update files locally.

Importing a cumulative update into the Packages nodes in an MDT share enables updates during the offline phase of Windows setup, speeding up an installation of Windows. Updates can also be applied directly to a WIM.

Documentation

Regularly updated documentation for the module is located at https://docs.stealthpuppy.com/docs/latestupdate/

PowerShell Core

Verison 3 of LatestUpdate has been re-written and includes full support for PowerShell Core.
