  5. And what about the Language pack. I have 5 LPs on my farm with base installation in English. So do I need to download the security update for all the LPs or just the English one?
    Regard,

    1. SharePoint CUs and PUs include the fixes for all language packs. You never have to install them separately for different languages.
      You only have to do this for service packs.
