    I have done everything lke in the manual, created
    "C:\Windows\ConfigSetRoot\" manually and put in "Windows6.1-KB4528069-x64.cab" but always ERROR 3
    Try to edit the LiveOS-setup.cmd and delete %%configsetroot%%\ from it at line 264:
    Change:
    Code:
    echo. ^<source location="%%configsetroot%%\Windows6.1-KB4528069-%xOS%.cab" /^>
    to
    Code:
    echo. ^<source location="Windows6.1-KB4528069-%xOS%.cab" /^>
    And retry the cmd.

    That was the solution, LiveOS-setup.cmd is now installing. Thanks a lot !

    / Unfortunatly Wind 7 doesn't find any new updates. I get the message "no new updates for your computer, code 802400 1F.

    I saved the page here you posted to get the WU to work. I dont have time till Wednesday to work on the 7s.
    My personal 7 is a new install so it takes the updates. I have 7, 10, and 10 enterprise.
    The main reason for keeping the other 7s going is there is still 775 boards here in classes. Mindanao.
    Long story. Ill get to fixing them in a few days. Im always out of time. Thanks
    Where is the updates I can DL for now manually?

    No, on WU is only the monthly rollup, manually there are 2 separate updates, the MSIE11 security update and the security only CU.

    On WU will the march SSU be offered when there are no updates left, installed or hidden.

    But the actual important thing for your problem is, did you install the feb. 2020 SSU?

    It works perfectly!
    I really want to thank you guys for the excellent job you did! I have been always considering Windows 10 like a recycle bin and I will be able to go on with Windows 7. Thank you again.

    I don't get it. I removed BypassESU v4, didn't install BypassESU v5, and windows update installed 3 new updates today! What's enabling it?!, KB4538483?

    Thanks for answering my question, bro. The op sure says it very clearly that it's open source or free software. If it were a different website I'd say some nice words to you but I'll stop myself. I guess you were also one of those who told people who got errors when the first esus were released that they should shut up and read the op for nonexisting instructions.

    Have installed BypassESU v5, and choose the first option which installs the full esu bypass. So far i can install updates manually from windows sites (i.e feb and march rollup), but windows update couldnt find these itself. Restarted computer after installing bypass. Did I do something wrong or whats up? Of course this isnt breathtaking problem since i can install all ESU updates manually, but of course would be most handy solution to have them via win update :)

    Already thanks in advance for possible answers and BIG thanks to OP and others for keeping our daily systems alive!:cheers:

    1. The advice is right on the money.
    2. I didn't even realize i quoted you in my reply to @mynorgeek
    3. There was info about the open source state, @abbodi1406 even replied to some questions about it, the project zip even contained the sourcecode at first. but that was to easy for msft to find.
    4. i read your post before you edited it, noted the nice words of appreciation too;)

    Did you install the needed ESU Licensing preparation update (KB4538483) too?
