I am looking for a tried-and-true Update Cleanup Utility for Server
2003.
Something similar to *Update Cleanup*, that does work for "Windows XP
and Windows 2000 security patches."
http://www.pcshareware.com/update.htm
This utility removes the UPDATE BACKUP files, and Add/Remove entries
BUT leaves the update logs as is so Microsoft Updates sees them as
already installed. I use in on my home WinXP system and it saves
gigabytes of disk space, I keep only 3mth worth of updates.
I note (via Google) that many have asked this question, but no utility
reference was supplied that will work with win2003 Server. The only
replys were the long/hard manual method.
You really don't need several years worth of update-backups on any
system.
Note, IMHO Microsoft should have though of this and provided an OPTION
"Keep xx months of update backups" as part of their update process.
