 hi,

> or "this update superseded other updates" or both? difference?

wsus not automatically decline superseded updates, , recommend not assume superseded updates should declined in favor of new, superseding update. before declining superseded update, make sure no longer needed of client computers.

typically, update supersedes other updates 1 or more of following:

• enhances, improves, or adds to the fix provided 1 or more released updates.
• improves efficiency of update file package, installed on client computers if update approved installation. example, superseded update might contain files no longer relevant fix or operating systems supported new update, files not included in superseding update's file package.
• updates newer versions of operating systems. important note superseding update might not support earlier versions of operating systems.

so update can supersedes other updates, can superseded other updates.

the difference in question second update labeled “this update superseded update” latest update, hasn’t superseded other updates.
