Correct. See
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7440If it is correct, what is the purpose of this utility?
This question should be covered in the FAQ that came with WSUS Offline. JFTR: The purpose is to install security updates (on supported Windows systems). Feature updates, or rather Windows upgrades, are no security updates. Also, technically Windows upgrades use a completely different mechanism, so it's just not possible to download Windows upgrades. Furthermore, Windows upgrades do a fresh system installation (including repartitioning) and migrate programs and user files to the new system. In short: It's dumb that MS calls them "Updates" because they aren't.
