How to Update Windows Without the Internet or Offline

Keeping your operating system up to date doesn’t only save you from security threat that could corrupt your data; it also keeps prying eyes away from your sensitive documents. The Windows Operating system provides the option to automatically update your OS, but you have to be online in order to use this automatic update option. What if you are not online or want to update a friend’s computer but he doesn’t have internet connection?
Microsoft used to provide one very good tool ‘Autopacher‘ as an alternative to Microsoft update. Autopacher was designed to update Windows XP SP3, Windows 2000, and Windows Server but Microsoft has discontinued it in 2007.  Don’t worry; there are still some utilities available to update Windows without an internet connection. Below, I will show you two utilities that you can use to update Windows offline.
