Exchange 2010 SP1 prerequisites for Server 2008 R1/R2 and Windows 7 - all in one download area

One stop shop for avoiding the confusing maze of Microsoft support links to get all the required hot fixes and updates to install Exchange 2010 SP1.

I typically download all the updates and divide them into 3 different ZIP files. 2008-R1.zip for all Server 2008 R1 hot fixes. 2008-R2.zip for all Server 2008 R2 hot fixes. Shared.zip for all the updates that are shared on both platforms. Very handy to keep on a USB thumb drive.

Contents of Shared:
FilterPack64bit.exe
UcmaRedist.msp (August 2010 - 3.5.6907.210)

The only updates in the list that are not a deployment blocker by the Exchange 2010 SP1 setup program are the Server 2008 R2 WMI memory leak hot fixes - KB 977357 and 981314. If you monitor your Exchange servers with System Center Operations Manager or anything that repeatedly polls the WMI Win32_Service class, this hot fix is recommended.

From time to time, Microsoft updates the hot fixes. You can see that a few of the hot fixes are already on v2.

The upcoming service packs for Windows and .NET Framework will reduce the importance of these updates and will render the collection obsolete.

Since you're putting these up for redistribution in violation of the license, are you going to commit to keeping them up to date?

Your RSS reader might have the original post cached. I updated the post soon after to take out the downloads. The last thing I want is to do something that would violate the license.

The list of updates is still valid though and the request links go directly to Microsoft, so it should clear up any confusion on the matter, hopefully.

Not sure why I didn't see the updated version, but you are correct. Whew! I confess to being extremely surprised that you of all people would have done that; I know you're conscientious!
