Hi guys

 

Not sure if anyone else has reported strange logic problems with PatchID 12416 (WindowsXP-KB2744842-x86-ENU.exe) ?

 

I have lots of machines showing that the patch is missing so patched one of them this afternoon at 1:45 pm. The job shows status succesfull so the machine was rebooted.

 

After rescanning the machine again though PatchID 12416 is still shown as required so i attempted to reinstall at 2:49 pm. This time the patch install failed with an error that the patch was already installed.

 

Rescanning the machine again finally show the patch installed correctly?

 

I havent logged as a support call as the patch is eventually installed but it might be worth checking the logic on this one. My scheduled patch jobs are taking twice as long to reduce the number of highly vulnerable systems as it seems to be having to wait until this patch has been installed a couple of times to show correctly.
