Hi,
So I built an 1909 x64 image 3 weeks ago from a clean source (microsoft.com) and configured my settings, features and integrated the latest online updates, the biggest of which was the KB4532693 cumulative update (340MB). I noted that after installation, Windows Update still downloaded and installed the same update.
Yesterday I loaded up this modified image and only integrated the latest updates again, this time I got the KB4532695 cumulative update (338MB) plus another small one (KB4538674). I was hoping this would now make a fully up to date image with no new updates required, but lo and behold Windows Update downloads and installs KB4532693 again.
What's going on? It kind of defeats the purpose of integrating updates if the only thing it does is grow the image size.
I did not select the 'Clean update backup' option as both 'DISM compatible' and 'DISM ResetBase' seems to always result in an image that fails to install (after the install continues from the internal drive it gets to this screen where it wants to download some files to repair itself, but always fails and reboots to the same screen (the network connectivity is fine)). This was true about a month ago, haven't tried it now.
Also, if I try integrating .NET 3.5 using the preset, NTlite fails to build the image, unless you don't touch anything else. Also true about a month ago.
I always update NTlite to the latest version before building any images.
