Which version was the last for Vista updates?

I wish to update a Vista laptop to the final updates state. The machine has no downloaded updates since 2016 and currently has some issues (in 2018) including internet explorer and auto-updates access which I hope newer downloaded updates might solve.

Which version can I download to update Vista, the newest version 11.4 only shows the option of Windows 7, I presume an older version will still have the Vista option?

Thanks

Solved that by installing IE 9 separately.

Now stuck on collecting IDs of missing updates stage for over 12 hrs, twice. Have disabled the check for updates in WU and done the admin command 'net stop wuauserv' but it hasn't helped get past that stage. Any suggestions? Thanks


Edit I see here viewtopic.php?f=4&t=7669 Dalai says it can take 'several days' to get past this stage so will run it again for a few days and see if it gets anywhere. I will also follow the suggestions here viewtopic.php?f=4&t=7147&p=24603&hilit=listing+ids+of+missing+updates#p24603

You could try manually installing these updates and rebooting before starting wsusou:
