This guide includes technical details, procedures, and recommendations for successfully installing Windows XP hotfixes on multiple computers in a small business or corporate environment.

<P>A hotfix is a file or collection of files that you can apply to Windows XP to correct a specific problem. A hotfix is provided as a program (.exe) file. When you install a hotfix, backup files are created automatically so that you can remove the hotfix later if you want. The installation process also copies files to specific folders and updates registry settings.</P>

<P class="indent">Hotfixes are applied only to software that is already installed when you apply the hotfixes. For example, if you remove a component and later reinstall it, you must reinstall any hotfixes that apply for that component. In addition, if you add further components to your computer that require this hotfix, you must install the hotfix again. Fixes included in a service pack do not work the same way. After you install a service pack, fixes are applied to all components you add or reinstall without you having to reinstall the service pack.</P>

<P>During the update installation, Windows hotfixes are applied to a computer that is already running Windows XP. When you run the hotfix program, it automatically installs the updated system files and makes the necessary registry changes. After the computer is restarted (required only for some system files that are used during the installation), the installation is complete and Windows XP runs with an updated file set.</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>You can install the hotfixes by running the Update.exe program, which extracts the hotfix files and runs the Update.exe installation program. Update.exe then checks the service pack version you are currently using. If the service pack version was released <I>before</I> the hotfixes and the language is the same, the Update.exe program installs the hotfixes automatically. If your service pack version was released <I>after</I> the hotfixes, the installation is not completed and an error message appears, stating that the version is incorrect.</P>

<P class="indent">If your service pack version was released <I>after</I> the hotfixes and you were completing an unattended installation (using either the <B>/U</B> or <B>/Q</B> option), the installation quits and no message displays. </P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>If the language of the hotfixes does not match the language you have set up for Windows XP, Setup will be interrupted. If there are no version conflicts, Setup continues the installation. The Update.exe program registers the hotfixes under the following registry keys:</P>

You can distribute hotfixes either by using a shared network distribution folder or by downloading the hotfixes from the Web. Because this guide is intended primarily for corporate users, the update installation procedures provided in this document focus on the shared network distribution method, which is the most common means of hotfix distribution for this audience.</P>

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>You can create a distribution folder on the network for the hotfix if you want to install it on more than one computer. The following procedure describes how to install one or more Windows XP hotfixes using this method.</P>
|
