Versie 11.9 van WSUS Offline Update is uitgekomen, de laatste versie met ondersteuning voor Windows 7. Dit programma maakt het mogelijk om Windows-computers die geen of een trage internetverbinding hebben, toch van de laatste updates van Microsoft te voorzien. Door simpelweg een of meer besturingssystemen, officepakketten en talen aan te vinken, worden alle beschikbare updates van de ftp-server van Microsoft gedownload. Als de updates binnen zijn, wordt er naar keuze een iso-bestand per taal of per besturingssysteem van gemaakt. Via een cd, dvd of usb-stick kunnen andere computers vervolgens snel en eenvoudig worden bijgewerkt. Hieronder zijn alle veranderingen te vinden die in deze uitgave zijn aangebracht.
