Is "windows update" the only way to get latest updates for win7 x64
Dell E6440 laptop, Win7 x64 P OEM
Fresh install from CD late 2018.
Updates were working for a while, until started getting "Windows Update error 8024402C"
It knows what updates are available & I see all the details, but it just cant download.
IE stopped working as about same time as well(I don't use it anyway)
Looked at getting the tool "System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 for x64", being 538.6M I have to decline for now. (live in rural area, 3G internet lucky to get 100kbps, typical is 25~ 60)
Q. Are updates available for download without using Windows Update service.
(I can use the Windows Update to check importance of update)
I'm sure I used to download XP updates from direct download links.
