TL;DR: install MS patch requires previous patches, how to determine needed patches in an isolated network?



I have this Windows 2008R2 SP1 machine in a isolated network, the machine hasn't been patched since 2015, which means a lot.



Directly installing latest patche proved to be unfeasible, the WUSA will check and then report 'Patch Not Applicable', however as to my knowledge, 'Patch Not Applicable' has only 3 reasons:




  • system architecture mismatch (not the case, easily checked)


  • newer patch which integrated previous patch was installed. (not the case, not patched since 2015)


  • patch pre-requisite not satisfied.



How do I determine the exact pre-requisite patches (a chain of patches)? (preferably from querying WSUS server programmatically? )
