The update patch is the same for .net 4.6 -> 4.7.2 (regardless if it's labeled differently for Win7/2008R2 and 2008) so, it will have the ESU restriction, and would need the same workaround to install freely https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1596124/
Hi guys .... I did this: -integrated update until January with net framework 4.8+KB4474419+ KB3138612 -integrated KB4490628,KB4538483, KB4555449, -integrated bypass ESU.v7 - rebuilt ISO windows update can't find me only KB4550964. Why? what am I doing wrong? Thanks
I have been dealing with the exact same issue for over a week. The solution is to uninstall BypassESU v7 or v6. If you want to still be able to simply check for new updates in Windows Update, install Bypass ESU v5 for the time being, since the v5 version doesn't cause crashes in the Windows Installer (msiexec.exe). I was trying to figure out why msiexec.exe has crashed many dozens of times in verifier.dll while trying to reinstall Office 365, or why installers for other programs which I use (and had previously installed) instantly crashed when either trying to uninstall older versions or when trying to install newer versions which are already installed on my other Win7 computers. The upshot is that both BypassESU v6 and v7 add additional registry entries (and perhaps some additional DLLs) which somehow cause problems for Windows Installer. With BypassESU v7 installed, an update to Office 365 bricked Office. I had to uninstall Office 365. Reinstalling it took forever. The install failed at 96%, even after I selected Retry for the present operation. I then clicked on the Ignore button, and the installer said that Office 365 installed successfully. With BypassESU v7 installed, I could not install LibreOffice. The installer instantly crashed. I thought that the issue might be a MS issue since the April Security Only update for Windows also updated msiexec.exe. I uninstalled all May and April updates in reverse order, and I still could not install LibreOffice. Finally, I uninstalled BypassESU v7. After doing so, I was able to install LibreOffice and either uninstall or update other programs on my laptop, in order to match what I have installed on my desktop. This afternoon, I reinstalled BypassESU v7 and updated Windows again through April. I then uninstalled v7 and then I installed v5. I then deliberately uninstalled and reinstalled LibreOffice, and some other programs, to verify that v5 does not cause issues with the Windows Installer. BypassESU v6 and v7 install additional stuff in comparison to v5. Somehow, these later versions of BypassESU break Windows Installer when trying to install or uninstall some programs. Kudos to abbodi and his team for their excellent work. I am sure that they will figure out how to fix this issue. Testing of future versions of BypassESU should include testing Windows Installer by uninstalling, installing, or reinstalling various programs. Even if things appear to work okay, the Windows Event Viewer will readily reveal any crashes in msiexec.exe and that msiexec.exe was restarted in order to complete the process.
@GoneToPlaid Actually, BypassESU v6 do not contain anything related to Windows Installer (msiexec.exe) or .NET 4 and yes, i'm aware of the incompatibility issue in BypassESU v7 regarding msiexec.exe hopefully we can fix it soon, otherwise we will revert to v6 (.NET 4 Bypass can be used separately then)
hello every one having a bit of a problem i have a windows 7 pro installed activated have micro soft office activated all the updates installed but cant install two updates kb4534310 kb4556836 have done a lot of reading and tried a lot of ways but those two dont want to install. any suggestion would be appreciated thank you and have a pleasant day

Tried installing on a VM. Windows 7 professional. Ran the Bypass (Bypass 7), selected option 1, everything installed fine, but WU saw no updates. Rebooted, same thing. Stopped the service, deleted c:\windows\softwaredistribution, re-ran WU same thing. WU sees nothing past 1/2020. Any ideas?
Hi Does this work on windows 7 home premium? And does anyone have proof of updates actually being obtained?
This is what has worked for me: 1. Do a clean install of Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit. 2. Get it completely up-to-date, including Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 and the January 2020 Servicing Stack Update(KB4536952). 3. Run the BypassESU-v5 tool and select option #1. 4. Install the February 2020 Internet Explorer 11 update and Security Monthly Quality Rollup and Servicing Stack Update - in that order. 5. Install the March 2020 Internet Explorer 11 update and Security Monthly Quality Rollup and Servicing Stack Update - in that order. 6. Install the April 2020 Internet Explorer 11 update and Security Monthly Quality Rollup and Servicing Stack Update - in that order. 7. Install the May 2020 Internet Explorer 11 update and Security Monthly Quality Rollup and Servicing Stack Update - in that order. 8. Run the BypassESU-v7 tool and select option #7. 9. Install the May 2020 Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 update. Note: The BypassESU-v7 tool cannot be installed until AFTER the May 2020 Servicing Stack Update(KB4555449) is installed. Make sure to stop the "Windows Update" service from running BEFORE running either bypass tool and BEFORE installing each post-EOL update. Make sure to restart the computer AFTER running each bypass tool and AFTER installing each post-EOL update.
plarfman: The post-EOL ESU updates are supported by Professional and Enterprise, and possibly by Ultimate. They are not supported by Starter or Home Premium.
to save time you can 2 options 1)install a copy of Gen2's iso of 7 with all the updates 2)after a clean install ,use the simplix pack 7 to full update your system and then apply the bypasstool you save a lot of TIME with these 2 options.
I know nothing about Gen2 but have to agree with Carlos, why not create your own up-to-date ISO from the originals and simplix? It's super easy to do and then you have control over exactly what is included. MDL Win 7 Tool for SiMPLiX UpdatePack AiO ISO (with install.wim/esd) Creation page-28#post-1595215 page-29#post-1598280
Yep, it works for me, i´ve this system too, only problem is net framework update, i try every solution on this board, with no result
Hi Anyone can help me to solve that problem? A system running ESUbypass v7, and which receives WU successfully, is unable to install the .NET KB4556399. Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8 for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (KB4556399)
You don't know what you get with those releases, if they even work, then you don't know what they did to it, like in the past they used to f**k up an old MRP project, nitted all code together and next we get the questions about all kinds of troubles.
