Windows 7: Windows 7 Updates Download

where can i get all the latest updates for windows 7, like the only the important and recommended updates.

in exe format, where I can install them manually



Windows6.1-KB958488-x64.exe, etc. i need x64 updates

Here you go: Download details: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 Update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 for x64-based Systems

I can think of a couple of ways.

1) You can manually download updates from the windows updates catalog.

Microsoft Update Catalog

For instruction on how to download and install, see this page.

2) You can use jcarle's free utility- Windows updates downloader.

Windows Updates Downloader (WUD) Program Files

For instruction on how to use it, see this page.

The WUD automatically sorts the downloaded updates in the correct category like Critical, Important etc.

Bill2,

I looked into WUD and, near as I can tell, it only works for Windows Vista and earlier. There is no mention of it working for Windows 7 on the website. Can you confirm whether or not it works with Windows 7 updates? Thanks.
