Agreed.

Not necessarily.  These files were all missed during a reboot.

I usually reboot my PC once per week.  I tend to Hibernate or leave it
running at the end of the day.  I also run setup.exe multiple times
per week to check for updates.  There may be some cases where the
files that need updating are missed.
