Waiting for Windows Offline Update Installer

Postby ernbueno » 18.05.2017, 07:38

Hello,

Does anybody knows when will be the next release of offline updates? Latest patch from this website was released on 19.03.2017 Version 10.9.2 (Hashes, AV check). Any information is much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

It's the old rule: It's released when it's finished. Why do you ask? Do you miss something? Is something not working? If you're keen to work with the latest beta version, you could try the trunk.

In case you do not know: WOU doesn't need an update to download/install the latest patches.

It is not an Update pack/collection (those need updating every month).
Microsoft update catalog: http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/
Windows Install media download: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/15088/windows-create-installation-media

Hi Dalai, everything is alright. We usually do a quarterly Offline updates of computers which has no direct connection to the Internet due to process restrictions. We don't want the beta version.

Thank you for your reply.

So exactly the usage scenario WSUS Offline has been designed for. In that case, just run UpdateGenerator again (on a system with internet access, of course) to get the latest security updates and delete old/replaced/superseded ones. Then you can run UpdateInstaller on the offline systems to get the updates installed. It's just like boco said: WOU doesn't need updating every month, a run of UpdateGenerator is enough to get the new updates.
