How to install Windows updates without an internet connection

always use the latest version from the project page

This is a good alternative to the now withdrawn AutoPatcher. Apparently, Microsoft shut them down because they were bundling the patches in to their download.

I tried this a few days ago and it generated ISO's for 2K and XP with all the patches. Makes re-installations go much faster.

An excellent tip, The_Oracle, and very good to have JohnWill's confirmation.

in fact, Microsoft has been shutting down quite a lot of websites dealing with windows update.

however, windows updates can be still obtained here:

http://softwarepatch.com/windows/index.html

and as a bundle here:
