| Hi folks,
Im wondering if anyone knew off the top of their heads.. if Vista SP2
already includes the Group Policy Pref CSEs? I just updated a Vista box and
no longer see the update available for the CSEs... Strange, is this listed
under SP2 release notes somewhere?
Thanks.

| No, it does not. I've seen some banter about this recently. Florian covers
it on his blog: http://www.frickelsoft.net/blog/?p=187

CSE install. Frustrating.

| Yep. I believe the product team is working to correct this but no date that
I know of yet.

<p>Here is the methodology for getting things working:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943729">Download the CSEs</a>
(<em>Microsoft KB site</em> . </li>
<li>Copy the KB file to C:\KB943729 </li>
<li>Open an elevated command prompt.</li>
<ul>
<li>It is absolutely necessary that the command prompt be elevated
with the domain admin credentials. </li>
</ul>
<li>Navigate to C:\KB943729 </li>
<li><strong>expand Windows6.0-KB943729-x86.msu –F: *\KB943729 [Enter]</strong>
</li>
<ul>
<li>Note the space _ in between the –F:_*</li>
</ul>
<li>Delete the original Windows6.0-KB943729-x86.MSU </li>
<li><strong>start /w pkgmgr.exe /ip
/m:C:\KB943729\Windows6.0-kb943729-x86.cab [Enter]</strong>
<ul>
<li>No quotes around the path.</li>
<li>Make sure the full path including the CAB is there.</li>
<li>A bunch of files and folders will show up in the directory.
This indicates that the CSEs are seemingly installed. </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>GPUpdate /Force [Enter] </strong></li>
<li><strong>shutdown –r –t 0 [Enter]</strong> </li>
</ol>
<p>Note that the syntax of the PkgMgr.exe command is extremely
important ...</p>
