I reuse the same SUG every month that is updated with new updates and removes all the old updates. I have the same packages and deployments I set up three years ago using ADR’s. Every month the ADR’s get the list of updates then replaces all the updates in my SUGs with the new discovered updates, all the superseded and expired ones get removed, all the new ones get added. The new updates get downloaded, added to the package, and then added to the deployment.
I’m not sure about doing it manually, but that’s essentially the same process you describe. I don’t have to redistribute or redeploy anything and clients pick up the new updates every month.

Dirstributed Deployed Ran a Microsoft update on the client after all deployed packages were installed. I found 2 additional KB’s that I missed. So I am downloading the KB’s. Editing the membership of the package. At this point I ??redistribute?? the package. Then redeploy or the next Software Update Cycle will catch the 2 new KB’s and install them without redeploying them?
