To download Microsoft software update packages from Microsoft, there are three types of packages available: Full, Express, and Custom.

  • Full update packages contain all the necessary files required to update the system, including files for the underlying physical host operating system.

  • Express update packages contain only the files that are required to update the system. These files are much smaller in size than full update packages, as they only include the changes between the current and updated versions of the software.

  • Custom update packages allow administrators to select which updates they want to install. This option provides greater control over the update process, but requires more time and effort to select and download the required updates.

To download update packages in such a way that it won't update the underlying physical host operating systems, we need to choose the correct package type. In this case, we need to avoid downloading the full update package, as it contains updates for the underlying physical host operating system.

Therefore, the correct answer is (B) Express update packages, as they contain only the necessary files required to update the system without affecting the underlying physical host operating system. Answer (C) Custom update packages could also be a valid choice, as long as we ensure that we do not select updates for the underlying physical host operating system. Answers (A) Full, (D) Any of these, (E) All of these, and (F) None of these are incorrect.
