    Kindly go through the following Microsoft reference article:

    How to download updates that include drivers and hotfixes from the Windows Update Catalog

    There you look for Step 2: Search for updates from the Windows Update Catalog

    No, you don't need to install all the updates. You may configure your system's settings accordingly.

    Win Server 2022 updates reference is also there:

    Hi, @Leidong

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    1. To search for a specific Windows update package on the Microsoft Update Catalog website, you can use keywords such as the update name, KB number, or the operating system version. For example, to search for Windows 11(22H2) updates, you can use "Windows 11 22H2 updates" or use the specific KB number of the update you are looking for.
    2. It is possible to install only the latest updates.
    3. For windows server 2022 updates, you may search "Microsoft Server operating system-21H2" or "Microsoft Server operating system-22H2".
