doctorfrog Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Here's my current Windows Update dialog:I'd like to be able to 'capture' the updates you see there and be able to install them without relying on Windows Update. I wish this were as easy as a Google search, but it isn't.For now, using Autopatcher allows me to apply most Windows updates without relying on an umbilical to Microsoft. The updates in this image, and a few others, are stragglers that I'd like to be able to install without using Windows Update. Is there a secret to downloading these separately, intercepting them as they are being downloaded, or finding the install packages cached on my hard drive?
