The Download Updates is a cool new feature.
As I use it more, I'm requesting a new button. A button that users can select to prevent NTLite from selecting previously unselected/missing downloads. ("Do not select Missing updates." Or, shorter, "Skip missing updates.")
Here's why. Referring to my screen shot below, I purposely do not download the Adobe Flash Player update. (Since I remove IE later, and don't use Flash.) I purposely don't download the Monthly Rollups. (Since I use WSUS Offline Updater to install only security related updates.) And for sure I don't download the problematic Secure Boot update.
But NTLite thinks that those missing files are missing because there was something wrong when I tried to download them the first time. (Or possibly that the files were moved and/or corrupted.) And so NTLite wants to re-download them again.
But I don't want it to do that because when I point NTLite to my download folder, NTLite automatically imports all of them in the list for integration.
Arrgh! Even if I could see what the updates where in the Updates page and remove them from there, it's too much work to go through and uncheck updates I don't want.
So, how about a "Skip missing updates" button/option?
