W7 X64 updates in one pack?

pyropetepete · 13 Mar 2012 at 12:26

I have W7 X64 SP1 OEM, after an install i have something like 500mb of updates to download. Anyway i can get hold of them so i can dump to a USB and update off that to speed things up!

My reinstall takes 15 mins, thats OS and drivers all off USB to an SSD, if i can bank the updates in as fast that i'd be happy

Once i was able to get to there unhacked website i can't see how it works, i've even tried it!

Is there not a program i can run that pulls them from the installing for the ones needed for that arrnagment/build?

Check in %windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download\ and copy the contents to USB.

You should be able to copy them back to this folder in the event of a reinstall, or even use them on another PC. Windows Update should then recognise they are there and just install them.

The main problem is that they're not very descriptive as to which update is which, and it's a manual process.
