After download bitcoin wallets, must update all blocks of data? My system is WIN7 , have updated  the blocks for 4 days.There are 6 months of data dont  download.Too  trouble. There are other ways to do it.
Each time I use the wallet MUST update all of the block data???

Just like shorena said, I think you'll be better off using lightweight wallets that don't host the whole blockchain.
You can also try online wallets like blockchain.info

just like torrents the OP may not have many seeds (or as we call them nodes)

research into adding nodes/supernodes to increase ability to download at optimum speeds.
I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

Nope, bitcoin-core is only syncing with a single node, no matter how many connections you have. But since you mentioned the torrent:

This torrent [1] can dramatically speed up the syncing and for the rest you can use a fast node from the fallback list [2] or mine [3].

If you just download the blockchain from somewhere you trust that the files are correct. So if you use the torrent your client will verifiy the data, which takes some time as well.

See here [1] there are other possible wallets as well. Id suggest you try all of them (or several of them) before you decide.
