Hi Tom,
Thanks for the info. It confirms what I heard from another source as well.

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your replies. I uninstalled the update from Add/Remove Programs directly on the server and re-installed using Windows Update, but still the same (left hand now scratching my head).

Hi TheJudge,
My UK English version and the US English are both the same version known as CCQ-00015. I have also run Windows uipdate directly from the server machine.

Philip,

I see you used the screen shot of my OEM with the 1500.6 on all attributes. Hmmm, mine is OEM USA, not sure if the UK/German version is different or not. This is an area where I know little about. Still curious to hear why.

Have you logged into WHS and gone directly to the MS update site and done a scan there?

I forgot to mention in my previous post that this was a fresh install.

Phillip,

I have the English US version and my resources tab reflects what yours does as well. On the other hand, checking the actual files on the Program Files\Windows Home Server & subdirectory files by right clicking on them individually and selecting the properties tab shows that all, save two, are version 6.0.1500.6.

The two exception files which are included in the Windows Update Knowledge Base Article KB941913 (Qs.exe & Qsif.dll) are NOT listed at all here!

So, to recap, for whatever reason I have the updated files with the two notable exceptions cited but the resources tab doesn’t reflect this.

Hope this helps!

I only show the backup component as 1500.6 as well.

I just checked the version in the Program Files\Windows Home Server folder, these files have changed to 6.0.1500.6:

whscommon.dll
whsoobe.exe
whsbackup.exe
transportservice.exe
portfwd.exe
homeservercontrols.dll
homeserverconsoletab.storage.dll
homeserverconsoletab.people.dll
backuputil.dll

Hi!
I also only have the backup component updated to 6.0.1500.6 on my fresh installed German RTM version.
I wonder what reason it has that some get the updates and some don’t…

The backup component should be 1500.6. The team did make some changes to the backup component.

I have a UK OEM version, which is a fresh install last week and I’ve applied all the available updates.

I only have one item upgraded to 6.0.1500.6 – the backup and restore module. Everything else is 6.0.1500.0

Wonder if this is a problem?
