Find Installation Date of Windows Updates

Is it possible to find the date when windows updates were installed on windows server 2003?

If I go to the controlpanel->install/uninstall programs and check the "Show Updates" checkbox it will show the windows updates that have been installed, but I don't see the installation date anywhere.


Try looking in c:\windows\WindowsUpdate.log


You can also look here - %windir%\SoftwareDistribution\ReportingEvents.log.


In powershell you can do that : Get-WmiObject -Class "win32_quickfixengineering" easy and fast .


From the command prompt, you can use the following wmic command to get a full list of the installed updates in html format:

wmic qfe list full /format:htable > hotfixes.html

If you prefer the csv format, use the /format:csv modifier instead:

wmic qfe list full /format:csv > hotfixes.csv
