Offline Update is a software program that can be used to download all available updates for various Microsoft operating systems and Office suites. New features of version 6 are the option to download all available updates running Linux which might come in handy for some system administrators who work with Linux and Windows computer systems. The new version contains additions like the inclusion of Office 2007 Service Pack 2 but also several bug fixes.
The portable software program will display a list of supported operating systems (Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008) and dozens of supported languages.
A second tab contains the same options for Microsoft’s Office suites (Office 2000, Office XP, Office 2003 and Office 2007). Below that selection are several additional options that include the following:
- Excluding Service Packs
- Verifying downloads
- Including the .net Framework 3.5 SP1
- ISO image creation per selected product and language or per selected language
- Copying updates to USB
Offline Update can be downloaded directly from the (German) homepage of the software developer. The software itself uses an English language interface.
