2. A cumulative update may include an updated version of a previous update.
Do you intend examining a spreadsheet of 200,000 lines which is of the order of stuff in a cumulative update ?

When windows update checks for available updates it compares the list of available updates from the update server with those that are already installed on the PC. It then shows only those that you do not yet have as being 'available'. Makes no difference how your previous updates were installed, manually or automatically.

Well, the standalone cumulative update from the Microsoft Update Catalog is in a different form, it's packaged in a .mui so that the standalone installer can use it - but that's not what you meant.
The individual patches in a CU will be the same whether the CU is delivered through windows update or downloaded from the MCU. The only difference is that you have to download them all in one file from the MCU, while windows update will just download the patches not already installed on your system.

Thanks Bree.
I have experienced in the past same update being downloaded multiple times after it had been applied manually. Is there a good explanation for this?

...and others have reported the same update being downloaded multiple times after it had been delivered through windows update. I haven't yet seen a good explanation for this, but it doesn't seem to be connected with you having applied the update manually.
Seems to be more of a glitch in the update itself, only particular updates have been prone to this.

I've read reports of updates being pulled, and re-appearing again at a later date. Perhaps with modification?
Is there any substance to such claims?
