I always uninstall the .NET ESU after every update. We know it has side effects. And being so easy to uninstall, there is no reason to keep it active after doing its thing.
Maybe you can tell me if there is a new SSU for WIN 7 in November 2021 ? I cannot see one, because I download manually Security Only updates.. I hope the SSU will not be included in the monthly rollup (like in WIN 10) Can somebody inform me ??
If that's correct, we may be able to incorporate Windows Server 2008 R2 updates into Windows 7 SP1 like we've been able to incorporate Windows Server 2008 updates into Windows Vista SP2. It would be nice to be able to support Windows 7 SP1 for another year.
@hanzzon2 Yes, but if the server '08 R2 updates are published to the MS catalog, we may still be able to pull a Vista ESU style gag for Win 7 in Server's 4th ESU year.
Yep, I heard about that too. It would be nice to get another 12 - 21 months support beyond January 2023.
Yeah, I have 2 POSReady 7 machines & it is no panacea with it having 2 more yrs of support. When Its ESU started last week, I had to manually install the updates (the ESU Bypass couldn't download them) and none of the .Net updates could be installed. Just like all of this that was told to me by @abbodi1406 (the developer) in this post: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...dates-eligibility.80606/page-294#post-1696622
It's now a week since my last posting. In the meantime, after completely wiping my ssd, I reinstalled Win 7, and it seems to have been a good decision. Getting everything the way I want it took s couple of days, but I'm retired and not that busy - and the computer is a back-up machine. The good news is that using the ByPass I was able to install all the updates I needed. Again, my thanks the team.
