Tried esu-patcher-9. Seems to update w7 ok, but is extremly slow booting compared to status before installing the patcher. Details: Followed instructions to the letter from the readme. Installed Prerequisites, some where allreday there. Ran the Live-os-setup, selected option 1. Installed ok. Reboot, and I received these updates: Nov quality roundup win 7, kb 4586827 Nov quality roundup .net kb 4586053 Sec update kb 4555449 Sec update defender kb 915597 Stack update kb 4580970 Question 1: Does the nov roundup included updates from previous roundups ? If not, should I downoload and install these separatly ? Question 2: Why the slow boot after installering ESU-patcher ? Boottime before install ESU-patcher: 1 min 40 sec. (45 sec to finish "windows 7 starting", 1 min until siren signals finished boot, a total of 1 min 40 sec) Boottime aften -------------".............. : 4 min. ( 30 sec to finish "windows 7 starting, 30 sec to "welcome", 30 sec to black screen, ( 2 min 30 sec (!!!) mostly on black screen until welcome and siren ok. ) Have I missed something in the instalation ? Should I remove the ESU-patcher after updates ? Computer: ga-x58a.ud7 8 gib ram, cpu hexacore socket 1366 990x 3,46 ghz Any reply will be highly appreciated. Snofte
1) each montly rollup contains fixes of the previous monthly rollup but also all past security and non-security fixes from 2016 and it supersedes the previous month's rollup. 2) That's normal you get the slow boot just after the updates have been installed but it should logically go back to normal boot after that.
Thanks for suggestions. 1. Great news that the november rollup includes everything needed. 2. As to slow boot, I am afraid this still persist even after several boots. The delay accurs in the last stage of the boot, just after "Welcome" has finished. As mentioned, this was not so before the ESU install. Something rotten with the install or what ? Maybe I should find a bootlogger with time elapsed for each item ? I am doing all this for another "oldtimer" on his pc delivered to me. He is dead against upgrading to win 10, but I might persuade him to do so after all if I cannot find a solution to the ESU bypass.
So i guess you will have to be more patient until it goes back to normal boot. I experience the same problem in my pc after updates have been installed before everything returns back to normal boot after a short time, the only difference is that i use SSD so maybe this has a decisive factor in getting the start-up back to normal in a short period of time on my pc. I can't blame him on that
Since the problem with this described micropatch hasnt been fixed by microsoft und thus the needed update hasnt been applied by means of using Bypass ESU 9 and windows update how can you say it is not needed to use 0Patch ?
You go beyond the topic under discussion: "Bypass the requirements for advanced Windows 7 security updates" ... Any OS from birth is a sieve, and will remain so until "death". What (who) are you trying to protect yourself from on your home computer? Put a good antivirus and do not fill your head with paranoia. If someone wants to "f..." you - it will happen (it always has been and will be).
Thank you very much. As I've mentioned, I finally got it installed. If it happens again, though, I'll certainly try your suggestion.
Let me put it to you this way . . . if it all doesn't matter why are you installing Windows updates or for that matter Bypass ESU V9 to keep your PC safe ??
Tried re-starting 20 times. Still no improvement, boot time is 4 min. as compared to 1 min 40 sec before installing ESU-patcher and receiving updates (incl. november quality rollup). Can only think of 3 possible explanations: 1. ESU patcher is causing the delay. 2. The MS upgrades are causing the delay., 3, The install og execution of the ESU patcher was fu..ed up. Any thoughts on this ? regards snofte
If it would, we all would have experienced it. You mean updates, and that could be true but again, more people would have experienced it. Or it has to do with your specific install/software/hardware/etcetc.... It either works or it doesn't. You can create an uptodate ISO and do an inplace / repair upgrade and see if it fixes it.
Thanks a lot for suggestion. A bit uncertain how to do this, a bit rusty at the moment. Could you guide me ?
@snofte Your problem could be related to damaged system files which existed before you decide to use bypass to install updates and this made the situation worse after the updates were installed and made the boot slow so maybe repairing these possible missing or damaged system files could fix your issue. So go to command prompt and type this comman line in admin mode : Sfc /scannow You let the repair procedure to finish and see if your problem is solved after that.
Code: ____________________________________________________________ Checking Prerequisites . . . ==== ERROR ==== Required updates are missing. You must install: 1) KB4490628 2) KB4474419 3) KB4550738 [April 2020] or later servicing stack update Press any key to exit. This is what I am getting when running the cmd file. When I try to install these updates, it says the update is not applicable to my computer. What am I doing wrong?
you need to be sure that you apply these updates according to the win7 architecture which is installed on your computer. if you have win7 32bits, you need to download and install the updates related to 32bit architecture. (x86) if you have win7 64bits, you need to download and install the updates related to 64bit architecture.
