I always store in my HDD setup files of software which I generally install after windows installation (like google chrome, skype ... etc). Updating these setup files manually.

I wonder if there is any free application, which checks for updated software and automatically downloads setup files to predefined folder?

I vaguely recall that win-get does this. I don't remember if I've ever used it or not.

Note that Ubuntu Linux automatically downloads updates for most third-party software by default. It pops up a message asking if you want to install the updates. If you tell it to install them all, it installs them all without asking you any more questions.
