The list of Windows Update/Microsoft Update software updates to ignore (by associated Knowledge Base articles).

Deployment project team members will want to periodically review the list of updates being installed by the ZTIWindowsUpdate.wsf script to verify that each update meets the project’s needs and expectations. All updates are logged and recorded in the ZTIWindowsUpdate.log file, which is generated during deployment. Each update will indicate its status as INSTALL or SKIP and lists the UpdateID, the update name, and the QNumber associated with each update. If an update needs to be excluded, that update should be added to the CustomSettings.ini file (for LTI deployments).

For example, if the installation of Windows Vista language packs should be excluded, look up the line in the ZTIWindowsUpdate.log that shows where the update was identified and installed, and then select the QNumber. For example, the QNumber for the Windows Vista language packs is 925471.
