    I just tried the Windows Update MiniTool 27.01.2016 on a Windows 10 Home system (OS build 10586.104). It seems to work okay for selecting which updates to install (which is why I wanted it). But I have a couple of questions.

    On the upper left side of the window is a category labeled "Installed". The updates listed under this label aren't listed under the label "Update History". What's happening here?

    Also, under "Update service" you have a few choices including "Microsoft Update" or "Windows Update". I don't see any difference in the available updates regardless of what service I select. What is supposed to happen here?

    I speak from using an XP computer that had Microsoft updates and Windows updates as choices. The Microsoft updates would offer Office updates because it is installed on the computer.
    The Windows updates only offered updates for the operating system.
