About Mini-EasyUpdate

Mini-EasyUpdate is a smaller version of EasyUpdate, which is used as a
standalone installation utility that runs without an installation process.
Mini-EasyUpdate searches for the update packages from a repository that you
create. Unless you have specified otherwise, the default location for the repository
is in the folder that is created when the Mini-EasyUpdate package files are
unpacked. The repository can be created on your local hard disk drive, a network
share, or external media such as a CD, DVD, or USB hard disk drive. The update
packages can be applications, device drivers, BIOS flashes, and software updates.
When you launch Mini-EasyUpdate, it searches for the update packages from the
repository, and then displays a list of the update packages that you can select to
install on your system.
