  1. Hello @Vasantharaj,

    I am trying to install Windows Management Framework 5.1 by using CMD.
    After extracted the .msu file, I got 04 file .CAB like:
    Windows6.1-KB2872035-x86.cab
    Windows6.1-KB2872047-x86.cab
    Windows6.1-KB3033929-x86.cab
    Windows6.1-KB3191566-x86.cab

    How can I install them all at one time? Or I have to install one-by-one?
    Please help me out, thank you.

    Sincerely,
