How to Create a DUA Script for a QFE Update

Before you can apply a QFE update to a deployed run-time image with DUA, you must first identify the file and registry updates and author a DUA script to install these updates. DUA does not support running a QFE on a run-time image. Rather, you must author a script that installs each of the QFE update files and registry settings individually.

You create a DUA script for a QFE after deploying a run-time image that supports DUA.
