Windows Update Agent 5.8.02469

Windows Update Agent is a hidden management tool that helps Windows to update for Patches and also for Windows Live Writer. When I downloaded Windows Live Writer and tried to install it, the setup asked for Windows Update Agent to download. So I thought it’s better to put it under this blog directly. The setup files are available separately for x86, x64, ia64 versions. Below are the links were you can download the files.

:. 64 Bit Edition – Windows Update Agent 5.8.02469 x64

:. 32 Bit Edition – Windows Update Agent 5.8.02469 x86

Windows Update Agent 5.8.02469 x86

:. ia 64 Bit Edition – Windows Update Agent 5.8.02469 ia64

Incase if you would like to download the Windows Update Agent Cabinet files then below is the link.
