I've downloaded the October 28, 2005 QFE for SP2 and found an .img file.
How do I install the QFE?

Hi,

you would need the Desktop QFE installer component, in order to install this
to XPE, if it's a Windows XP Professional QFE... if it's a Component Patch,
you would need to extract the img file, and apply Component updates...

if you poke in the google archives, you will see programs that will extract
..img files.

HTH,

Use Magic ISO program to extract the exe file from img.

I feel like I'm missing something crucial in this discussion.

"JC" says "you would need the Desktop QFE installer component, in order to
install this to XPE, if it's a Windows XP Professional QFE... if it's a
Component Patch, you would need to extract the img file, and apply Component
updates...". But how do you know which it is ?

"MS" says "Use Magic ISO program to extract the exe file from img". But how
do you know there's an exe file inside the img ?

All the other SP2 QFEs (Aug 31 2005, July 13 2005, etc.) provide an
executable and some RTF instructions. Then the QFE of Oct 28 2005 provides a
".img" file instead - and no instructions whatsoever. So how do you know
what you're supposed to do with it ?

Thanks
Jack
