    Nope MS has kicked it to the curb like an old retread. Apparently it isn't "edge-y" enough. Who knows if they'll ever update it again... :ninja_hide:

    Control Panel > System and Security > Change Settings (left-hand pane) > Microsoft Update > Give me updates for Microsoft products and check for new optional Microsoft software when I update Windows

    Check that box and you'll get yer Office updates. :hangloose:

    In order of likelihood:

    ● You might want to check if this SSU has been superseded by a newer SSU package already installed on your system.

    ● There could also be a chance you installed this same SSU earlier, so double check your updates history.

    ● Also verify the package matches your Windows version and appropriate processor architecture.

    ● Another possibility is you're still missing a prerequisite update that needs to be applied before this one will take.

    The Windows update history found on your computer is easy to access but often unreliable. To get a more accurate list of installed hotfixes and updates, run a command prompt (cmd.exe) administratively (right click, run as administrator) with the following command:

    wmic qfe list full /format:htable > c:\HotfixList.htm

    Then look on your root drive (C:\) for the results = HotfixList.htm

    If all this checks out, maybe list what prerequisite updates you've installed to date, and where you are exactly with the BypassESU. As it is, you didn't spell out too many details in your post.

    Hi, I have ESU 11 installed without the .NET, and last and also this month Windows 7 x64 Pro on my laptop has notified me (using the normal WU notification process) that updates were available, which I installed using WU (not ESU). Is there any reason this is working the "normal" way??

    Because the ESU 11 you installed is allowing you to get and install updates. With out the ESU 11 you would get nothing!!

    I usually only "like" the posts of @abbodi1406 and @Enthousiast.
    I make an exception this time to thank them for their unbelievable support and kindness.
    I use ESU Bypass since v1 on two VM (32 and 64 bits) that I use for test purposes.
    Since now one year, I never had a glitch and v11 worked flawlessly yesterday.
    Again my warmest thanks to master abbodi1406 and fellow Enthousiast.
    Cheers, Bill.

    A simple click to open the OP is to hard to do?

    Thanks for that. I created the MSU.cmd and ran it as admin. All good. My Windows Settings update content now matches the gifs you posted. I checked for updates and once again no Office updates. I thought about that for a while before replying. I eventually recalled that I hadn't run KMS_VL_AIO_ALL (v 39) since installing Office. I ran the cmd script and was more than surprised to note that when the script got to the office part I could see that it referred to Office 2019.
    Anyway ran windows updates again and once more no Office Updates.
    Decided after a while to check my Office install - If you recall I believed it to be Office 2016 - which I had deliberately chosen as according to the Wikipedia page on MS Office compatibility with Window versions 2016 was the best version for Windows 7.

    Firing up Office and checking the version blow me down if it isn't 2019. So unless 2016 is updating and upgrading itself I must have installed from a mislabelled ISO.
    Checked my stores and I don't have an Office 2019 - I do have a SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2016_64Bit_English_MLF_X20-42432 which I used to install. I suppose it might not be kosher.

    If there are no Win 7 and Office 2019 compatibility issues I can just continue with that version. Does 2019 update from within the application without user intervention?

    I shouldn't be asking that question here. I can ask elsewhere with a gentle hint as to where that might be.
    Thanks

    All the ESU for the month of January were installed flawlessly.
    However, when I was running the LiveOS-Setup.cmd of BypassESU-v11 as Administrator, it just shows "Error. This script requires Administrator privilages. Press any key to exit". Why?
    Is there any way to know which version of BypassESU is installed in my system?
    Many thanks for the excellent and dedicated work of abbodi1406 and Enthousiast.

    The "installation" process is just add that registry entry about ExternalManifest?
