    I haven't changed anything on my machine but last couple months or so "regular" WU will show updates available but always get an error (this time - code 80248014) when try installing them. I tried a few fixes I found online but still getting error. Previously WU and the Bypass have both been working. As long as the Bypass is still updating properly is it safe to assume I'm getting w/e updates are available?

    Hello all,

    I would like to please you tell me if Win 7 with ESU is as safe as / or safer than Win 10?

    And generally is Win 7 better than Win 10?

    If it is, then is it better for gaming too?

    Hello, I have a small problem regarding the WU ESU patcher. After installing it (along with the ESU suppressor), I was not offered ESU updates through WU. I tried deleting C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution (after stopping wuauserv) multiple times and reinstalling WU patcher once. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes I made, as I am not a native English speaker.

    And you have the BypassESU for Dotnet installed and active (it's a separate option from the one for Windows)?

    The Dotnet Bypass is the one that interferes with MSI. It is recommended to remove the Dotnet Bypass after having installed the Dotnet CU, until next month.
