Hi ppl i just want to know if anyone knows how to backup vista installed updates cause i wan't to format my system and restore the updates. Does Anyone know how to or if is possible?

Thanks in advance...
 
I don't think it's possible. You can download the stand alone updates (if there is such thing) and put them in Vista installation ISO using VLite.
 
If you want JUST the updates then no, you cant back those up.

You can download the service packs redistributable file, its large, but it saves you repeating the download process over and over.
 
ok Ok i see ill download the stand alone updates cause i want to avoid downloading them every time... Thanks.
 
its quite a pain to do, but if you at least get the big ones (service packs, drivers) and store them aside, you save a lot of hassle.

I believe there's a vista tweaks thread on here somewhere, and i recall seeing a link to a list of downloadable install files for vista updates in someones signature.
