Searching for a Specific Update with Batch File

D

DaDuck

I'd like to look for a specific update (Ms08-67 Kb958644) from a batch file
or some specific tool. I've looked at MBSA and it requires a installation and
then reports at least on all MS Updates and this is too much over head for my
purposes.

How Can I identify what files are installed during the Update installation
(This is on the assumption that I can search for the file/files to identify
the Update was installed or not).

Thanks for any and all suggestions...

Would it be safe to assume that if the following existed, the patch had been
applied??

Thanks very much.
