Hello Team, I am not sure whether this is the correct location to post my question about WSUS security updates cab file. I know that second tuesday of every month microsoft releases security updates. So we will download wsusscn2.cab every month and distribute to.
- Aug 23, 2011 Link above and many like it to download the above file, stalls at 24% for a length of time then gets to 99% stalls then eventually fails, this is atempting to download using wsusoffline and directly in the browser IE, firefox, opera, tried it on a mac also in safari and on wifi at local library – any confirmed links that work?
- Jun 18, 2013 It is called WSUSSCN2.cab and holds Microsoft update information. I can not find anything other than the Microsoft Update Catalog to get this information. Is there a file for the later operating systems that has the same information as the WSUSSCN2.cab file?
