Hi All,

I'm having an issue with patching workstations at a couple of clients, where patches have been sitting at the 'Pending' status for over a week.

Daily patch scans are running (in the morning) and successfully identifying the outstanding patches.

Daily Automatic Updates are running (in the afternoon) and patching some machines, but not all.

If I look at the Script History on the individual workstations, I can see the various $ver$cred0$ and $inst$ptc0 entries.

If I look at the Script Log I can see entries such as:

Executed patch: KB974554/MS09-060 - Security Update for Microsoft Office 2003 (KB974554)

Yet when the next patch scan is done, this patch is still showing as pending.

I'm at a loss as to how I move forward with this.

The workstations are turned off at the end of the day, so no reboots are required. The patch mentioned above is not the only patch that is not installing, there are a few others as well - none of which have been mentioned on this forum as needing the install commands updated etc.

Any pointers would be appreciated, as I feel like I'm going around in circles.

Kyle
