Windows 10 – Get & Export installed Updates
Sometimes it’s good to know which updates are installed on your client. Of course you can choose the regular way via the GUI elements of Windows but than you have no possibilities to export your result for filtering or reporting.
There are different ways to achieve that
- Option 1 – CMD WMI querry
- Option 2 – PowerShell
- Option 3 – DISM
Option 1 – cmd wmi querry
HTML-Export
wmic qfe list full /format:htable > C:\patches.html
CSV-Export
wmic qfe list full /format:csv >C:\patches.csv
Option 2 – PowerShell
The same result can also be achived by using PowerShell:
CSV-Export PowerShell
Get-HotFix | Export-Csv -Path “C:\temp\patches.csv” -NoTypeInformation
if Get-Hotfix isn’t available you can also query the wmi by Powershell
get-wmiobject -class win32_quickfixengineering| Export-Csv -Path “C:\temp\patches.csv” -NoTypeInformation
To display installed “OnDemand Packages”, “Language Packages” or “Foundation Packages” you can run the following command:
$Session = New-Object -ComObject Microsoft.Update.Session
$Searcher = $Session.CreateUpdateSearcher()
$Searcher.Search("IsInstalled=1").Updates | ft -a Title

Option 3 – dism
To display installed “OnDemand Packages”, “Language Packages” or “Foundation Packages” you can run the following dism command which somtimes could be easier to handle than the PowerShell scripts.
dism /online /Get-Packages /Format:Table
