Get-hotfix / wmic qfe commands do not give Microsoft related application patches.

Hi All,

We need to Run an audit on all our servers to see if a specific application related patch is installed on the servers or not.

I used Get-hotfix & wmic qfe these give the output, But only list the Windows patches like in the below screenshot.

But it does not list the installed Microsoft application Patches like in the below screenshot.

Is there any way from powershell we can query these KB Numbers as well ?

Get-HotFix -id KBXXXXXX

You could try the above to find with KB

Hi Guys,

Any update on this issue ? Are there any possibilities to fetch the application related patches via powershell or command prompt ? Or is there any other way other than powershell or command prompt to achieve this ?

You don't get any output from this?

gwmi -cl win32_reliabilityRecords -filter "sourcename = 'Microsoft-Windows-WindowsUpdateClient'" |
    where { $_.message -match 'KB947789' -OR $_.productname -Match 'KB947789'} |

Hi Jrv,

Thank you. I am looking for Rollup updates and Product upgrades which are having a KB Number.

As you have mentioned even i don't think it is possible to pull Product upgrades and rollups.
