Step 1: Download the Correct File
From the official UZSoft portal, look for the "Offline Update" section. The file will look like:
update_eav_v2.3.4_to_v2.5.0.uz.zip
Step 2: Place the File in the Right Directory
Copy the .uz.zip file into the following folder (default path):
C:\UZSoft\EAV\Updates\Offline\
Step 3: Launch the Offline Updater
Step 4: Validate the Update After the process (may take 5–20 minutes), verify:
At first glance, you might wonder: Why not just use ESET’s official offline update tool? The answer lies in accessibility, portability, and scale.

You might ask: Why not just connect the EAV server to the internet for five minutes? In many UZSoft deployments, that’s impossible due to:
UZSoft recognized these needs and engineered the UZ.zip offline bundle specifically for IT departments that require physical media handoffs.
Because the UZ.zip is applied while the node is in standby, there is zero downtime. The caveat: your cluster must be on the same offline network segment.
