    After installing ESU WU does not find any necessary update.. win 7 pro build 26321 (x86 and x64)
    You can install the manually downloaded update.

    @abbodi1406 I'm experiencing a weird problem after following the simple guide for wsusproxy (https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1778062/): windows update service can't be started and when trying to start the service a small window opens telling me the service can't be started because it's disabled (error 0x80070005 access denied). I tried resetting windows update which doesn't work, removed Remove_wsus.cmd which also didn't solve the problem.

    I'm using WUMT for finding updates and before using wsusproxy I had no problem installing updates for Embedded manually.
    Any advise to fix wuauserv in this scenario?

    EDIT: I managed to start wuauserv with the help of windows update blocker

    After installing WU ESU Patcher on Windows 7 x64, no updates were found... :confused:
    (applied option 1)

    Same issue on Windows 7 Embedded (only Defender definitions update offered).

    What's this command result?
    Code:
    wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where "(ID='4f1f646c-1e66-4908-acc7-d1606229b29e') and PartialProductKey is not null" get PartialProductKey

    So the patch is working

    are SSU KB5017397 and LPP KB4575903 installed?
    are all these files found?
    Code:
    C:\Windows\System32\wbem\sppwmi.dll
    C:\Windows\System32\wbem\slw.dll
    C:\Windows\System32\sle.dll
    C:\Windows\System32\kerneles.dll
    and this registry?
    Code:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\POSReady]
    "Version"="7.0"

    Everything checks out for me in all 4 of my Dell desktops - just as it does for nicholaasjan.
    Same partial product key
    Same SSU and LPP updates installed
    Same 4 DLL files
    Same registry entry

    Windows Update did not detect the March 2023 KB5023769 SMQR update, so I had to manually install it.

    It is frustrating, but it can still be manually installed without being rejected, which is the important thing.

    Windows 7 Ultimate x64 was all up to date, including February 2023, Installed BypassESU-v12,I then installed Win7_WU_ESU_Patcher with option 1, Rebooted the PC and checked for updates, didn't find any, so I repeated those steps again but checked option 2, rebooted then checked for updates, after a few minutes, 4 showed up. So I installed them. Works well for me.

    Not sure if anyone else did this for Win7_WU_ESU_Patcher, but I turned of my Avast Antivirus pgm for the install of the patcher.

    If I understand correctly Bypass modifies or installs its own version of the system files to update Windows, therefore I would like to clarify if you remove ByPass components completely will the native system files come back or after modification the process will not change?

    Hi

    Thank you so much to the people behind this project for keeping Windows 7 alive!

    I have been using BypassESU to install updates for Windows Professional 64-bit SP1 until 10 January 2023. I have just installed the standalone WU ESU Patcher for Window 7 client to continue receiving updates as posted by abbodi1406 on March 3. The following three important updates were subsequently successfully installed on my computer:

    1. Security Update for Windows (KB4575903)

    2. 2023-03 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows Embedded Standard 7 for x64-based Systems (KB5023769)

    3. 2023-02 Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8 for Windows Embedded Standard 7 for x64 (KB5022731)

    My question is, are these all the important updates I should expect to be installed on my system at this point or is anything missing?

    Just wanted to make double sure everything is working fine.

    Thank you for your help.

    @Avalon2020
    None of system files are changed, only a copy of the file is patched + some registry modifications
    uninstallation will remove the patched files and restore registry

    @AutumnBreeze
    yes
    since 2016-10, Windows 7 only gets Monthly Rollup + .NET Rollup

    Got it. Fine.
    Another question: should I start by installing Bypass v9 or can I start with v11?

    Start with v12 if you need .NET 4.x updates
    each new version override previous, no need to uninstall
