How does one install updates using Windows Update Catalog
Posted by Ryan W. Keen on January 25th, 2004


Hello, I am looking to use The Windows Update CATALOG to
install updates on many many machines. The question that
I have is: Is there some way to scan for updates needed
on each machine and use the updates that I download to
the Windows Update Catalog File Structure to install on
each machine. I am wondering because all the computers
that I am trying to update don't have access to the
internet - too far out of the city - and there are over
70 computers with various operating systems.
