So Add / Remove Windows components from Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs doesn't open, which is accompanied with the following error:
Unable to open information file custom.inf Contact administrator.
Specific error code - 0x2 at line 2011777033
What do you think the following code snippet prints?
// Fill the array (each array element has the same value as a key)
foreach(array('07', '08', '09', '10') as $n){
$a[$n] = $n;
}
// Delete the first element from the array
array_shift($a);
// Print a value of the element with a key of '10'
echo $a['10'];
If you, like me, think that the element of the array with a key of '10' has a string value of "10", then you're unfortunately wrong. But now you've got a reason to read the article further.
So, you have a folder with Windows Update Files (e.g. downloaded from Microsoft Update Center):
... WindowsXP-KB938464-v2-x86-RUS.exe WindowsXP-KB944043-v3-x86-RUS.exe WindowsXP-KB946648-x86-RUS.exe WindowsXP-KB950762-x86-RUS.exe WindowsXP-KB950974-x86-RUS.exe ... ... (a lot of files)
If you have such a folder, then it's logical to install all the files automatically at once, with a single command line.
