# Download Updates

Probably the best feature of OSDBuilder is the ability to download Microsoft Updates.  While you can do this with **`Update-OSMedia -Download`**, you can also download Microsoft Updates manually

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure you use the **`GridView`** parameter so you can select the Microsoft Updates to download.  There are Optional Updates for MicroCode that you may not want added to your Windows Images

**Optional Updates are not used with Update-OSMedia, but only applied with New-OSBuild**
{% endhint %}

## Get-OSDBuilderDownloads -GridView <a href="#get-osdbuilderdownloads-gridview" id="get-osdbuilderdownloads-gridview"></a>

You can download updates using **`Get-OSDBuilderDownloads`**. You can adjust the parameters to narrow down your scope

```
Get-OSDBuilderDownloads -Download -GridView -UpdateArch x64 -UpdateBuild 1803 -UpdateOS "Windows 10"
```

Then simply select the **Updates** that you want to download and press OK

The selected updates will be downloaded using **BITS Transfer**. If you need to download non-interactively use the **`WebClient`** parameter

Downloads will be saved in **OSDBuilder\Content\OSDUpdate**

## Remove Superseded <a href="#remove-superseded" id="remove-superseded"></a>
