Standalone Windows Update for 2008

[AJWhite1970]

OK, so fixing another school's network and their lone Windows 2008 SP2 (not R2) server hasn't run windows updates for 30 months!! (The issue I was called in to fix was broken replication on their two Windows 2003 servers so you can kinda guess the mess here, full C drive if you were wondering). Windows Update over the internet just times out (no doubt lost count of the updates needed after 200 or so...)

 

Just wondering if there is a standalone updater I can download and bring back later on an USB drive that would do the job instead? No disk space anywhere on-site to install WSUS... I've used autopatcher for workstations but it doesn't support servers.

 

Cheers

I've used it on several servers before without any issue (although they were member servers, not DCs)

Agreed, and I have used on DC's with no problems. Will fit onto a usb stick as required. I had a stick for 32 bit and a stick for 64 bit machines
