For the first time since I started to use the Bypass in February 2020 for installing Windows 7 ESU updates I had trouble installing this month’s .NET 4.8 update(KB5022509). Every time I tried I got error 1603 (0x643) when using either the dotNetFx4_ESU_Installer_u or using BypassESU-v12_u. This happened on 4 of my systems. After some debugging I discovered that the 0patch agent was to blame. I had installed 0patch in July 2022 in case I had to use their patches starting February 2023. I never had any problem with 0patch before. After uninstalling 0patch KB5022509 installed fine. I used the dotNetFx4_ESU_Installer_u and have not tried BypassESU-v12_u. I would assume the issue of not being able to install the .NET 4.8 update using the Bypass is also solved, because it threw the same error. Note: 0patch has to be uninstalled entirely. Stopping the service, ending the 0patchservice process or simply disabling the 0patch agent does not solve the problem, only uninstalling 0patch does.
Long live Windows 7! Thank you abbodi and all others involved! WU ESU Patcher works as described So far, I have not installed February updates (but only Jan 2023) so it was a "clean scenario". I've tested version for Windows Server + Embedded and then Windows Embedded only. For Server version I got some old updates specific for Server edition only so I guess they should be ignored (and hidden). For Embedded I got what was expected for normal version of Windows 7 and successfully installed them. On a side note, after defragmenting the database file the file has actually become larger so I restored the previous version.
Hey everyone, and thanks a lot to all contributors for their great work allowing us to keep using Windows 7 safely Just a short message to share with you the following, which puzzles me: I tried to install the 2023-02 Security Monthly Quality Rollup (KB5022872) on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate with (IIRC) BypassESU v11 installed, and to my great surprise, it was successful, without any warning or error message. According to https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...dates-eligibility.80606/page-356#post-1778169, I would have expected BypassESU v12 to be required? The only other action I did prior to installing KB5022872 was to install KB5016892, which also was successful -- I think this package is only needed for Server 2008 R2, so I would have expected the install to fail, but that wasn't the case. Does anyone understand what could explain this behavior please? Does it mean that all future Security Monthly Quality Rollups for Server 2008 R2 could also be installed this easily? Thanks in advance! Edit: looking at BypassESU change history, if I understand well, this could be because since v8, ESU eligibility check for OS updates (and .NET 3.5.1) suppression is done in the same way; only ESU validation for .NET 4 updates bypass has changed between v8 and v12?
Hello everyone A question I have with the BypassES v9 Do I need it disabled to enable BypassESU v12_u Or enable BypassESU v12_u over BypassESU v9 Good day
Huge thanks to all involved with making this highly successful Keep Win7 Alive project going for years & the foreseeable future. I spent several days going through the pages of this & the proxy threads. Studying, deleting, & simplifying the various instructions for my own unique use on my Win7 Home Premium Acer Aspire laptop. Yesterday & today I incorporated the proxy project & it went smoothly & successfully. Completely updated for Jan & Feb 2023. I will continue to study & simplify for my situation & use V12 from page 1 & the WU ESU Patcher described so completely on page 358. Not only a complete working project but with options for various systems wrapped around the 6.1 OS core on a timeline that could possibly give us 3 plus years of continued use. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, one & all.

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
