win7 chipset support is still a pita workaround, no chromium support after Jan 15 2023 means no more steam gaming on win7 + new games only support win10 anyway. I'm sure there are other reasons to stay on win7 after jan 2023 tho. I'll be movin on I think unless I get severe separation anxiety giving up win7 MCE (on win media center since 2004 I think it's time!)
This summer I rebuilt 3 of my old Win7 boxes into Ryzens. Sadly I could slowly feel myself letting go of Win7 this yr. LTSC 2021 is great and it is the "real 10 pro" and not the disgraceful "10 so called pro" that MicroSloth wants you to use, that will never come near any of my PCs. And something else that suits me is, I run a 3rd party "port" of the Classic Theme on LTSC, so I don't have to look at the disgraceful "no theme" that Windows has had since 2012.
I may have missed the PSA related to media center installs but kb5015861 july monthly rollup just deleted my Win7 MCE EPG123/ channel lineup listings. restored to the point just after SSU update and before security rollup now it works again. TIA
wrong OS. similar issue but not the same but thanks! been on ol' TGB since it started, ended, then resurrected
The same fix works with Windows 7, you just replace the Windows 7 ehtrace.dll file with the pre-update version following the instructions on the Green Button site.
I'm trying to get this running on my Windows 7 Ultimate, and I fail at the Servicing Stack Update stage - KB4536952, KB5006749... all those say "not qualified" (i.e. "nicht geeignet" on my german windows). The July-roll-up is found but fails to install. On my laptop with Windows 7 Pro, it worked fine.
@abbodi1406 actually, I have that installed. This explains why I cannot install any of the older ones. It finds ESU update KB5015861 and tries to install, but fails at "9%" (during reboot) with code 80070490. Non-ESU updates (security essentials, office...) install just fine.
Windows 7 ESU will end in 2023! i hope they extend for another 3 years Google Chrome will end support for windows 7 in 2023 (that mean also others browser who use chromium engine like Brave,Opera,Ungoogled Chromium,Microsoft Edge,Vivaldi) Microsoft change their cycle with 3 years as a service that mean in the year 2024 will be windows 12 (windows 7 was released in 3 years after windows vista) Windows 10 will end support in 2025(there are rumous that will be ESU for windows 10 ) Windows 11 final release will be in 2025 (there are rumours that some updates will break your system if you have a old cpu 7th gen 8th gen or even older for people who bypass windows 11 tpm only with windows 11 final build ) Windows 12 will be released in 2024 (they release because they know that windows 11 final release build will fail even know people complain about windows 11 even now ) is windows 11 another windows 8 drama? i am still use Windows 7 ultimate ESU x64 in 2022 i will wait to see what will happen in 2023 with windows 7
i cant post links here from Verge,Microsoft central, or microsoft cycle policy you should know the word the meaning of "RUMOURS" that mean after 1 year they will change that every year they change policy and services
why you want facts i dont come here to show you facts i come here to post some rumours my message was not for you even my message in 2019 rumours about windows 11 people say was nonsense why i waste my time explain to you? they even change cycle to 3 years as a service dont you think?
