April 2017 Office Update Release

Don’t forget radosuaf’s method!

PerfView has a command-line switch /OnlyProviders that traces only the specified providers. This is handy if you want to reduce the trace file size, which is especially important if you want to run PerfView for longer periods of time.

These are the steps that need be modified:

2.Run PerfView from a command prompt as follows:

perfview.exe /onlyproviders:Microsoft-Windows-Diagtrack

5. Isn’t necessary unless you want to run PerfView for a very long amount of time.

6. Not needed.

7. Not needed. Use default value for Additional Providers.

9. PerfView can be run for days.

More test results will be posted soon, including one that surprised me!

For the record, before today (April 9, 2017) these versions of these standalone Windows updates were used:

KB2952664 version 20 – digitally signed Sept. 12, 2016.

KB3021917 – digitally signed Jan. 9, 2015.

KB3068708 – digitally signed May 27, 2015.

KB3080149 – digitally signed July 23, 2015.

Starting today (April 9, 2017), I will be using KB2952664 version 22, digitally signed Feb. 23, 2017, unless otherwise noted.
