There are No Products Affected by this Package Installed on this System When You Try to Update SharePoint

This is quite a common message that you can have experienced with while you are trying to install updates in SharePoint.

These updates can be:

• Hot fixes
• SharePoint Updates
• KBs

As the message indicates, it's giving a feeling that it is been installed in the environment. But when you check in the Central Admin, you might wonder if it is not installed yet.

How to Check Which Updates are Installed in the SharePoint Environment

1. Open Central Admin
2. Navigate to Upgrade and Migration

You can check that information from Central Admin -> Upgrade and Migration:

Then, select the View Farm where you can examine all the patches in the SharePoint environment.

Here, you can see whether a particular patch is really installed or not. IF it is not installed and you are getting the message, there is something else to check on. There could be various reasons for this.

But most of the times, pending windows updates are the root.

How to Check Windows Updates and Install the Updates

There are many ways in which you can check updates, I’m describing a common way which can be applicable for most scenarios:

1. Go to control panel
2. Then click on check for updates to confirm whether there are any pending updates in the system:

   

3. Check products and patch installation status.

For my issue is there are pending updates in windows updates in control panel.

You can install pending updates from here itself.

After installing the updates, you can restart (this is optional) the machine to give a fresh try.
