Sometimes, we may find that the updates we download from Microsoft are .msu files, bringing a question that how to use them. Actually, it is related to expand.exe in windows. So we need to unzip them with "-F" parameter.
Example:
*Create a new folder in D:\Vista123.net named msu.
*Run the followings.
　　 D:\Vista123.net>mkdir msu
D:\Vista123.net>expand -F:* Windows6.0-KB929761-x86.msu D:/Vista123.net/msu
The command will lead to the followings：
Adding D:/Vista123.net/msu/WSUSSCAN.cab to Extraction Queue
Adding D:/Vista123.net/msu/Windows6.0-KB929761-x86.cab to Extraction Queue

Adding D:/Vista123.net/msu/Windows6.0-KB929761-x86.xml to Extraction Queue
*Continue:
D:\Vista123.net>expand -F:* D:/Vista123.net/msu/Windows6.0-KB929761-x86.cab D:/Vista123.net/msu
