I would like to install service pack 4 for exchange server. I downloaded the 13 compressed files, but when I tried to unzip them, I get an error message about the drive being full. The files are huge! Is it necessary to install all 13?

Also, the instructions say to uncompress the files to a folder on the local drive. Isn't there an install to execute after i unzip the files? The instructions said nothing about this.

Generally, unless there is an ample reason to install this service pack, I wouldn't even install it, it could cause problems as opposed to fixing them.

If you are having a specific problem with your exchange server and the documentation of SP4 for Exchange details a fix to that problem, then you should install. Otherwise, I advise subscribing to the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" theory.

You should definitely install SP2 for Exchange, but there is no need to move further unless you are having a problem.

I usually subscribe to if "it ain't broke, don't fix it". However, Microsoft recommends installing this.

Would I be safe if I only install the first of these compressed files, the one called Core Setup?
