How to update Windows offline using Portable Update

If you have a computer in an isolated environment with no access to the Internet, updating it can seem impossible. Fortunately, there is a program you can use to download the necessary Windows updates on a computer with Internet access and then install them on an offline computer. It is called Portable Update and this article will show you how to use it.

1. Download and install Portable Update

To get started, you'll need to connect your PC to the Internet and download Portable Update as a ZIP file. Go to where you downloaded the ZIP file, unzip it, and place the unzipped folder on a USB drive, such as a flash drive or external hard drive.

Note : The PC you're trying to update must have the same version of Windows as the one you'll use Portable Update to download the update files on first. That is, if the offline computer is running Windows 11, the other computer should also be running Windows 11.

Next, double-click PortUp.exe to launch the update.
