Where is the download folder for files downloaded with V5 windows update ??

HI,

Does any one know where the files/folder is for the files
being downloaded with Windows Update V5 ?? (i know in V4
it was C:/WUTemp but it is nolonger where the files are
downloaded to). If you open the folder you can save the
fiels so you don't need to downloaded them again it you
format your system.

Thanks

Hi

WU5's temporary download folder:

%windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download\

(%windir% is typically C:\Windows)

I might be wrong, but I think files there will be automatically
removed after 10 days.
