Hi guys need help and clarification on BypassESU-v12 installation from abbodi1406. In general, I installed it with all the components run and he did not find any updates. Tell me if I need to remove previous versions of BypassESU before installing this one and it generally for March 2023 actual or not? And the second question. Can you explain step by step how to install WSUS Proxy for Windows 7 if BypassESU-v12 is not working anymore? I'm a newbie and I'm having a hard time figuring this out.
BypassESU allow to install all updates, but it doesn't offer updated beyond 2023-01 use standalone WU ESU Patcher instead https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1779528/ run the script, press 1 for option [1], restart system, then run Windows Update
hello abbodi1 406 I installed the BypassESU v12 To use the Win7_WU_ESU_Patcher Do I need to uninstall BypassESU v12 Good day
Win7_WU_ESU_Patcher is complementary to BypassESU v12 both are needed just run WU_ESU_Patcher.cmd and choose option 1
Please forgive this question but I just can't find the file WU_ESU_Patcher.cmd. I thought it would be in the bypass download but I just can't find it. I have been reading everything but keep getting lost. I did run the standard v12 bypass and manually installed the embedded update but that seemed too easy. Sorry to put you through this again.
in a vm installation, first install BypassESU-v12_u then, Win7_WU_ESU_Patcher choose the 2 install , then connect to the internet and get this, why
Why what? all of them you get with Win7 too (except the Analyzer updates are for Server, hide them) OOB KB5010798 and .NET Rollup are superseded, but they didn't fix their metadata
Hi @abbodi1406, Thanks for your relentless efforts that allow us to still use Windows 7 in a safe way. Your latest WU ESU Patcher works great for me, both for x86 and x64 VM. One question : . Under "Important notes" from the abovementioned link : * Windows Server 2008 R2 category is recommended for Windows 7 x64. Hence Option 2. . In your latest messages, you recommend Option 1, hence Windows Embedded 7 category. From previous messages, I understand that option 2 will offer updates after October 2023, hence longer than option 1. On the other hand, using option 1 offers the strict necessary updates for Windows 7, while option 2 offers a longer list with some updates that seem specific to Windows Server. Therefore, I tend to prefer option 1 for the time being, to avoid headaches on what has to be installed or not from the longer list of Windows Server updates. Any recommendation or comment on this reasoning ? Thanks in advance and have a good week, Bill.
No offense, but we are hardly trying to keep track .. as a general rule of thumb you first search, read, then ask .. most of the time your question would be already answered ! As @FuzzleSnuz stated in a previous post in this thread it's a mouse & cat play .. guys @ M$oft just making things harder & harder just for money & greed !
Windows Embedded 7 category patch affect SppWmiProvider calls (e.g. slmgr.vbs or wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct..), but the impact is minimum Windows Server 2008 R2 category patch is isolated for wuaueng.dll only and i thought Option 2 might offer more products for Microsoft Update, or it's compatible with MS Security Essentials / Windows Defender updates but it seems both works similar for that
i'm still debating on how to add the new standalone "WU ESU patcher" with BypassESU, or to add it at all
