Install - Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (x86)
Download Link

Install - Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.256
Download Link

Install - Internet Explorer 7/8
Download Link

Download WSUS_Proxy_NT5
Download Link

Download Windows Update MiniTool
Download Link

Launch WSUS_Proxy_NT5/Add_wsus.bat when it says press any key to close it, close it.

Launch WSUS_Proxy_NT5/Run_wsus.bat and dont close it. leave it open.

In en_wumt folder, Launch wumt_x86.exe for 32bit windows, for 64 bit, wumt_x64.exe

Press "Check for updates", O shape button, After searching for update done, you will get list of all updates, Click "Select All" on top, than click "Install" button. Arrow down button 3rd from left.

I tested on freshly installed Windows XP, and have fully updated Windows XP.

Did anyone test it? Machine I'm restoring right now does not have SSE2, so I'm afraid I cannot give it a try.

Also, does it stack up well with POSReady updates?

The method works but checking for updates takes a long time for some reason
