Windows 10: How to search and get a list of updates KB articles using an update API?

Hello, I was trying to find a better solution to my problem.I would like to list all of the substituted KBs for Windows 10. Normally, I would enter the corresponding Microsoft Update Catalog page to a KB and see in "package details" all substituted articles for that specific one. The problem is that I want to find all of them, every KB that was ever replaced / substituted / superseded.That is way too exhaustive to search manually, and I would take a long time to accomplish my objetive.Can I use some kind of API to get the desired result? Like, to search and filter given the criteria: substitut

FIXED!! Windows 7 sp1 never ends searching for updates

Pros:

• No need for a script, easy to apply manually
  
• Much smaller download, seems that KB3020369 is not required, only SP1 is needed

Cons:

• Windows Update Client downloaded by the script is newer (June 2016 version is included in KB3172605 instead of March 2016)
• You will still need to download/install hundreds of updates afterwards, most of them are already included in KB3125574 and installed by the script

Check the date on the one you thought it was. Nov 4 2015 <-That's not June

The rollup does contain the fix.
