--- Comment #7 from Dimitar Nanev <d_na...@hotmail.com> ---
Thank you for your thorough explanation, Mike!
Situation with UCRT installation as you describe it in your conversation with
MSFT [3] is really unfortunate. It's shame that MS doesn't provide reliable
method for applications to install CRT, a component fundamental for their
operation.
Further Steve Wishnousky [MSFT] claim that KB2999226 will install without
internet connection. I don't know how is this guaranteed unless you package it
inside your MSI file but even so, if it depends on other KBs you may end up in
installation process requiring internet connection. Still, there are systems
operating offline or within limited intranet.
As for my case, I'm going to reinstall those machines from scrap. Manual
KB4480970 installation refuses to install, saying it is "not applicable for
this PC".
My final concern is that WU is way too complicated and consequently inherently
unreliable and hard to troubleshoot. If applications are forced to depend on WU
it it will become support nightmare. I know it's MS decisions, I just express
my feeling that the way seems wrong!
