i'm getting a new box with windows 7 my current box is almost 7 jahre still running WXP
i downloaded WSUS version 8...
1. when i run "updategenerator.exe" click the boxes and then the "start" button, it starts downloading files, great can i cancel this after 1 hour, and then rerun the next day ? will it download the same files or will it continue downloading new files, if i cancel after 1 hour & rerun it for 1 hour/day for several days ? i go to library which has hi-speed internet but only for 1hour/day per person. the first time i run the directories will be empty because i just installed to USB stick, the 2nd 3rd times i run then i would UNCHECK the "cleanup download directories" yes ?
2. is there an easy way to only get updates after service pack 1 for windows 7 ? there is a checkbox on "updategenerator.exe" to "include service packs". so if i uncheck this & start download then it will NOT download sp1 for w7 yes ? so it will then download everything after sp1 for w7 yes ? i don't know how microsoft puts those updates online, will it download all updates before sp1 for w7 ? this doesn't make sense but i'm asking anyway
3. if i unzip/install WSUS80 on a usb stick and then run from the usb stick, it looks like the downloads will be stored onto the WSUS80 directory on the usb stick yes ? then i don't need to use the "usb medium" checkbox when running "updategenerate.exe" yes ? then i can put the usb stick into other box to run the updater part yes ? i will make backup copies too
4. any idea how much disk space downloaded for windows 7 if skip service pack 1 ? i will not be downloading vc++/.net frameworks
5. why is windows 7 listed with server 2008 R2 ? are these the same downloads ?
thanks so much for freeware !! danke schon !! zehr gut !! macht spas ja !! was ist los ? wie gehts ? ich kann nur ein bissen deutsch gesprechen
