Updates were installed: Date different

I have a odd issue, I think. My updates are getting applied. but, it shows in the history correctly. but, the "Updates were installed" is different. I have other users that show the same thing. The "Updates
were installed" can be like a month or so later.
In this example: it says my updates were installed 6/27/2013, but my history shown below, shows the correct date 7/15/2013 which is correct.

Old post indeed, yet I've hit the same thing recently. I'm using a Powershell script to install updates against a batch of servers, and I've seen that even if all is installed successfully, the "Updates were installed" never gets updated.
I went ahead and contacted Microsoft Premier Support and the technician there and - after checking with someone who is actually involved with developing the Windows Updates component - he told me that this is by design. What happens is that the date will
be updated only by Automatic Updates or during an interactive session, and updates processed through other means, such as scripts, don't get to trigger this. The reasoning behind this eludes me (a user can select to install one update only and leave the system
exposed vs. a script/SCCM patching 100% - the first would be "good" and second "bad" according to this logic).
I agree that taking a look inside Control Panel and seeing 2012 as the year when "Updates were installed" is a big red flag - especially for an auditor (not to mention the explanations one has to give them for reassurance), but there's always the
Powershell one liner which will yield when the last update was installed:

Windows Update not reporting correct "Update were Installed Dates"

Hast the server running the sccm correct time and date settings?

So we just moved to SCCM 2012 R2 and just used SUP to do the windows updates. The updates were a success, but one thing I noticed was the update screen says the last updates that were installed were on 5/21/2015, but the my update history says the last update was 7/1/2015. Does anyone know why the dates are off?

Get "Updates were installed" date from computers

Hi,
When I go to the control panel and select windows updates, I can see the section that shows when updates were last installed. How can I access the area of the computer that is supplying that date to this view via powershell?

Here:
$key='HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\Results\Install'
(Get-ItemProperty $key).LastSuccessTime
You can find more examples in the "Repository".
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Intune does not update the "Updates were installed" line on WU local screen

On the main splash screen of WU, the Updates were installed line only changes when WU is run locally. Updates via Intune do not register on this line item. Very confusing and if you visit this screen with a client present, they might think that
their computers are not being updated.
Any chance this can be fixed?

Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?
For suggestions like this, I would post them to the MS Connect site. This way, someone form the Intune team will look at it and do something about it. Posting it here will NOT anything fixed.

HT1338 My Mac says updates were installed for Keynote, Pages & Numbers but when I check the versions they are still the old versions.

My Mac says updates were installed for Keynote, Pages & Numbers, however, the version number shows to be the old version... If check for updates, it's telling me no updates are available...

The old versions are not removed when the new versions are installed. (The updates add features that improve cross-platform editing of files but remove many other features so the install leaves the old version in case the old features are important to you). If you look in your applications folder you should find both versions.

Updates Were Installed by System Administrator

I ran Software Update today and this message popped up. It popped up after it checked but before I actually installed anything. What does it mean? I'm the administrator of this computer, and I didn't install any Software Updates yet.
Plus I appear to be stuck in a loop. When I check for Software Updates, this "Updates Were installed by System Administator" box pops up. I hit Check Now, it thinks for a while, and the same box then pops up.
Who is "System Administrator" ? This computer is not managed by any sort of administrator other than myself.

Just curious whether turning off the use of the maintenance service, then exiting and restarting Firefox would bypass that message. You can turn off the service in the Options dialog under Advanced/Updates. See: [[Advanced settings for accessibility, browsing, system defaults, network, updates, and encryption]].

I have no sound since updates were installed

I have no sound since updates were installed and trouble shoot cannot fix it what is my problem?

Hi,
Can you post back with the following.
1. The full Model No. and Part No. of the notebook ( from the service tag underneath your notebook ) - see Here for further details.
2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 32bit ).

This can be done after editing of sms_def.mof file or else using the power-shell script in windows server 2008 where the powershell is a feature by default.
H/W inventory:
For the 2000 servers this has to be installed but if we enable this its mentioned it may utilize upto 100 % of the Memory during the h/w inventory you can check that in your SMS_DEF.MOF -
QuickFixEngineering you can see the warning.uickFixEngineering

Powershell script:

Hallo, my Firefox browser wont load youtube for some reason, the explorer will. I have tries to change the proxy setings as the firefox help center suggested, but to no avail. Also no updates were installed on firefox that I'm aware of. pleas help me.

Hallo,
For some reason firefox has stopped loading the youtube site for me. I can watch videos other people uploaded to facebook for example, but cant get into the site. the explorer will load the site, so I've tried changing the proxy settings in my firefox as recommended in the help center, but to no avail. Also there was no update installed that I'm aware of, getting to youtube through any link will simply give me an error message saying the connection was reset while the page was loading.
pleas help me.

I had trouble with youtube and cleared all history and cache. This cleared up the problem(s).

HT1338 How can I tell which updates were installed?

In Mountain lion, there doesn't seem to be a clear "installed updates" list. How can I find that information? I want to know which system updates I've installed.

My video links no longer work since micro updates were installed

My problem is as per subject I use HP desk top s5765UK Windows 7 64 Only changes were Microsoft updates

Hello Immunetoall,
What video links?
Are they stored locally on the computer or are you visiting a website?
What browser do you use?
Where do these videos link to? (e.g. youtube)
What happens when you click on a video link? Saying "it doesn't work" doesn't really tell me what you are seeing to be able to accurately understand your issue.

After updates were installed, we are no longer able to play our games on facebook, why???

The same apps we have been playing forever no longer will open or run. They just sit at the opening screen and don't progress. I'm not very computer savvy. I have gone back to using Internet Explorer for the time being, but I do not like IE and it runs too slow. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Who knows why? Between a Flash update and 2 Firefox updates in the same week, plus Mozilla trying to get the new version of Firefox out the door, my guess is all of the above.
Either stick with IE for those games for the time being or revert to Firefox 3.6.13 and Flash 10.2 r102 until Adobe and Mozilla can figure whose product is causing all these problems - and fix it.

SCCM Reporting: Software Updates / Apllication the "Installed date" is missing or null in reports

When the “V_GS_Add_Remove_Programs” or “V_GS_Quick_Fix_Engineering” queried for installed date (the views that contains information on updates/application
installed date), the “installDate0” Column returns “Null” or is
"blank" on most of the rows.
The machine in this example is “X”
2. As you can see from the machines X's add remove Programs installed Date is given clearly.
Appreciate your help on this as its for an audit report of windows updates and applications installed date, I know that some applications do not populate this value but my argument is if its visible from Programs and Features why isn't the data being collected.
Best Regards,
Michael

10.5.6 update is installing updates in Previous System/Applications folder.

After updating from OS X 10.5.5 to 10.5.6 I discovered several of the updates were installed into Previous System/Applications rather than the Macintosh HD/Applications folder.
This resulted in Mail (3.1 build 914/933) quitting repeatedly which is when I discovered I had a newer version (3.5 Build 933) in the Previous System folder.
I then checked some of the other applications and further discovered that Spaces 1.0, Bluetooth 2.13, ical 3.06, Key Chain 4.0.2, X11 2.1.5 and Address Book 4.1.1 also installed to the Previous System folder.
I switched the applications between the two folders and everything seems to be working OK but is this going to mess things up when 10.5.7 comes around?

Just and update:
-Previously I had deleted the Previous Systems folder.-
I backed up my files and downloaded the massive 10.5.6 Combo update on top of the previous update. Restarted the computer and everything is working fine, all the newer versions of software are installed and running fine.
So a happy ending for today.

I, too have the same problem with Windows 8.1, only it's 12 updates, not 11.

The update settings were set to automatically install, but I changed them to download automatically and install manually, and deleted the SoftwareDistrubution/Download folder contents to re-download the updates.
They don't re-download.
The log says the last updates were installed 1/24/2015 (which should be correct), and no new updates have been installed for this cycle.
Windows Update is running correctly. This is the only Win 8.1 machine in the network with this issue (Mixed OS network with about 8 Win 8.1 machines). All other Win 8 machines have installed THESE UPDATES successfully. There are no known
differences in configuration between them.
Thoughts to fix this?
