I have two computers. One is a laptop that I use for online activity.
The other is a desktop that I keep offline at all times. When I use my laptop online, Windows updates automatically. But how do I update my offline computer. Is there a way to transfer the files form my laptop to my desktop. Or can I download an update file from a website?

You could downlaod the updates onto a jump drive and then put them onto your offline computer via the jump drive, but you would have to know which updates you needed to get.

You can download every update from microsoft.com - unfortunately you would need to be able to find all the ones that specific laptop needs. That is quite a lot of work.
Why can't you connect it online to do updates and then disconnect it?

acquire XP SP3 - that'll grant you with lots of the updates from the XP unique launch. yet lots of the updates are secure practices updates - which you do no longer choose for if the computing gadget's no longer on the information superhighway.
