FIX: Some files are not rolled back to the original file versions after you uninstall a SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 hotfix that is applied when you use a slipstream installation
System TipThis article applies to a different operating system than the one you are using. Article content that may not be relevant to you is disabled.
Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 fix release.
You apply a hotfix for Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (SP1) by using a slipstream installation.
You uninstall the hotfix.
In this scenario, the following files are not rolled back to the original file versions. Instead, the file versions remain the same as before you uninstalled the hotfix.
ChsBrkr.dll
Chtbrkr.dll
Infosoft.dll
Korwbrkr.dll
Xmlfilt.dll
For example, you apply SQL Server 2008 SP1 Cumulative Update 3 (CU3) by using a slipstream installation. Then, you uninstall SQL Server 2008 SP1 CU3. However, the files remain at version 12.0.9730.0 instead of reverting to version 12.0.6828.0.
Note This issue does not occur if you apply the hotfix in a regular sequence instead of applying the hotfix in a slipstream installation. For example, if you install the release version of SQL Server 2008, and then you install SQL Server 2008 SP1, and then you install SQL Server 2008 SP1 hotfix, this issue does not occur.
The fix for this issue was first released in Cumulative Update 4 for SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1. For more information about this cumulative update package, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Note Because the builds are cumulative, each new fix release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 fix release. Microsoft recommends that you consider applying the most recent fix release that contains this hotfix.

The SQL Server 2008 builds that were released after SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 was released
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 hotfixes are created for specific SQL Server service packs. You must apply a SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 hotfix to an installation of SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1. By default, any hotfix that is provided in a SQL Server service pack is included in the next SQL Server service pack.
