Hi to all,
should the windows update V6 (or better the Microsoft update) automatically
replace v5 ?
I know that Microsoft Update is live..but my windows xp continue going to
windows update v5.

Is it normal ?

B. regards

I know on a v6 *WU* system it's not automatic; you will see a notice on the
right side of the screen advertising the new MU though. So it's reasonable
to assume that v5 to v6 isn't automatic either.

Thanks for the reply,
but you see the advertising on V5 or V6 ?
In my v5 there is nothing.

Tks for the reply.
Yes I know that I can force it.
What I'd like to know if this redirection will be automatically applied in
the near future or not.

Best regards

I've seen it advertised on a v6 system. In the future though, MS could make
it automatic on all systems for all we know, it's impossible to say.

Hello Eric,

We appreciate your posting this.
Is it safe to say, that until either this rollup occurs, and unless a user
visits V6, their Auromatic Update "module" will remain to be the older V5
version? But they also still get all critical & high priority updates.

Best to you.

It is safe to say nothing.
