 Hi,

 How can I get all the KB including Office KB articles?

get-hotfix only pulls Security KB NOT Office.

Thank you

Tuan

Tuan,

Get-Hotfix only queries the operating system update list, aka Windows updates, so you won't see the Office updates.

The scripts shared in this blog post should be helpful for you:

unfortunately that blog article doesn't mention that the particular WMI class is only available if the computer already has SMS or ConfigMgr client upon it, and if you have SMS or Configmgr then you probably should be using SMS or ConfigMgr to get the data you need...

If you don't have SMS or ConfigMgr, this discussions may be useful

Don [doesn't work for MSFT, and they're probably glad about that ;]
