How to install the updates required for MS CRM 2011, MS CRM 4.0

Sometimes when installing the MS CRM(2011 or 4.0), this needs some updates and its recommened by MS, as attached in the image.

So if the serever is not connected to Internet, then it could not be updated.
Sometimes the installation passed succesfully and installed MS CRM.
But sometimes some weired errors will come.
I will share this in my next blog.

So to get the updates, we can use the config files and the start the installation in the command prompt.
the list of the updates required for Server,srsConnector,email router are as folllows
The following URLS are for x86-based platforms:
The following URLs are for x64-based platforms:

  <Patch update="true">D://Server_amd64_ENU.msp(downloaded from 1st link)</Patch>
