    Since I clean installed W8.1 3 days ago, I’m striving to find any updates. No success. Maybe installing newest WUA, but MS article:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/949104/how-to-update-the-windows-update-agent-to-the-latest-version

    points out April 2014 version (KB2937636). And it was revised 27 Feb 2017.

     

    Any ideas?

      Check out KB3172614 July 16, 2017 Rollup.
      I don’t have file list contained.
      It may have been pulled.

      Yes, it does contain Wuaueng.dll version 7.9.9600.18340.

      Thanks!

        They may be trying to make things difficult for people. I didn’t find it in the Catalog and there wasn’t a link on the download page.

      You can find it via Windows 8.1 update history page – and it needs April 2015 servicing stack update to be installed beforehand.

      Servicing stack:

      It couldn’t find updates for 3 days and now found all within a few minutes!

        KB3173424 is a later servicing stack, i believe

        • #105773

          ANd KB3173424 supersedes the KB3021910 servicing stack update as Microsoft said so in MS support KB article 3173424.

          Update replacement information
          This update replaces the previously released update 3021910.
