6.0, 6.10 and 7.00. The information from these obsolete patch roll-up answers are attached to this
answer. The roll-up included in this answer includes patches for all these versions, see details below for
a complete listing of products.

Details
The download installs all of the latest patches for the following. See the TOC links for a complete
description of the included patches:
37313 - FactoryTalk View Site Edition 5.00.00 (CPR9) Patch TOC

Even though all patches are included in this roll-up, only patches that are actually required for an
installed product will be applied.
The roll-up uses specific checks to confirm which product is installed. The roll-up will only install patch
files provided these files already exist on the target computer, unless a new binary file is being
introduced as part of a patch.
Installation
Patch a distributed system in the following order:
1. Patch the client computer(s), and shut down (turned off).
2. Patch the FactoryTalk View SE server(s), and shut down.
3. Patch the FactoryTalk Directory computer and restart.
4. Restart the FactoryTalk View SE server computers.
5. Restart the client computers.
Patch Install
1. Follow the link to download and extract the latest patch roll-up. If you agree to the Software End-User
License Agreement, the latest version of the Rockwell Automation Download Manager will be installed
on your computer (if necessary), and the patch files will be automatically downloaded and extracted to
C:\Users\Public\Downloads\RA on Windows Vista, 7 and 2008 or to C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\RA on Windows XP and 2003.
These are default locations that can be changed anytime during the download
The Download Manager will give the user a link to take them directly to the download folder
when the download is complete.

View Studio, FactoryTalk Admin Console, etc).
On a Server: Do not open any of the Rockwell Software programs. Auto-start services (for
example, HMI servers, Data servers, etc) will be-stopped during the patch install.
On a Client: If FactoryTalk View SE Client is set to auto-start, ensure that it is shut down now.
4. !!! This install will stop all Rockwell services on the local computer !!!
5. Do one of the following:
Double-click on InstallAllPatches.bat.
Or
Right-click on the file and select Open.
A command prompt window will appear and begin installing the patches.
