170193 2003-08-24 22:51:00 Hi,

I have used Windows update up till now for updating PC.
Just yesterday i downloaded Service Pack 1a
Now in Add/Remov program i have about 16 Windows Xp Htofix
e.g Windows XP Hotfix (SP2) Q328310 and also few of them show as
Windows XP Hotfix - KB823980

Can i safely remove them now i have got service pack as it has all the fixes or are these fixes for issues that came after SP1 was released.

Cheers

You would need detailed info on the coding of all patches to determine the safety. Why would you want to remove them anyway?
