Bypass Windows 7 Extended Security Updates Eligibility

Okay, I finally have a clean install after starting over. Blame it all on me.
My posts above were caused by the following:

1. Not running ESU-Patcher before checking for updates resulted in WU offering a bunch of old updates.
2. Killing updates during shutdown corrupted something in the system and caused bad packages.txt running Dism on reboot. Since WU was not set to only inform, the bogus updates related to the missing ESU-Patch started to auto-install.
3. Not running the latest v12 Bypass before installing any embedded updates during sysprep resulted in incorrect hash values which led to the manifest issue in the captured image.

After avoiding my previous mistakes, I have a clean install now with WU only offering 2 updates

Hello, everyone.
I want to apologize right away for my English. I will use the translator to ask my question.

I have installed the original Microsoft Windows 7 with SP1 Updated 12.05.2011 and I would like to install all the latest updates on it.

At first, I used DrWindows_Updatepack_Win7_Jan23 but then I found out that:
1. If you have regular Windows 7, only updates up to and including January 2020 will be installed

2. If you have a licensed Windows 7 with an Extended Security Update (ESU) subscription, all updates included in the package will be installed. Also, all updates will be installed if you have self-configured your ESU update restrictions bypassed.

Can you please tell me how I can get updates for my Windows7?
I can't understand what step by step to do with BypassESU-v12_u.7z to get all updates.

The best way to update your computer from the original SP1 version is to use the Simplix Pack.

Quote from Simplix Pack first page:
"Set allows you to update Windows 7 SP1 (x86 x64) and Server 2008 R2 SP1 live operating systems, as well as to integrate the updates in the distribution (Install.wim). Can be installed on any language. Includes all critical, recommended, and security updates and updates for all versions of Internet Explorer."

 

Although this is another good method of updating ISOs/installs but i never like to spam in others threads.

 

First of all let me say that I have a great amount of respect for you, having seen your very helpful posts in a great many threads and all of the people you have helped in the past, but lately you seem to be over reacting to helpful, but slightly off topic posts. I fully understand that this is the ESU Bypass forum and that almost all posts should be confined to that, but I think it's much better to try to answer someone's question and point them in the right direction and perhaps the right forum, or tool. The ESU Bypass is a wonderful tool which I have used many times for month to month updates (and a great credit to the developers and testers), but for accomplishing one off updates from older installs the Simplix Pack is (in my opinion) easier to use. After all isn't the entire purpose of threads, tools and forums to help people solve problems they may not otherwise be able to on their own.

 

It always has been my mo to not promote/spam "my" "solutions" in others threads.

Over reacting as in?

 

Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding as to terms, and it wouldn't have bothered my so much if you had said something to the effect that you would prefer other solutions not to be mentioned in this thread, but the post is hardly Spam see the definition below.

Spam is any unsolicited communication sent in bulk. Usually sent via email, spam is also distributed through text messages (SMS), social media, or phone calls. Spam messages often come in the form of harmless (though annoying) promotional emails. But sometimes spam is a fraudulent or malicious scam

 

I always apologize to abbodi when i mention simplix in this thread.

 

OK, then let me apologize for mentioning Simplix in this thread.

EDIT: Removed smiley waving face (as caption said bye, and I just meant all's OK now)

 

OK, since my previous post seems to have been deleted, perhaps because it was only a "thank you" message, I'm going to
ask about this strange anomaly that happened on my Win7 Pro (x64):-
I had been using the ESU Bypass successfully for ages with no problems I had .NET versions 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.71, 4.72, 4.8 installed
and I manually updated accordingly.
Then since February using the Stand Alone .NET Bypass I found that Control Panel shows ALL my .NET installation dates as 22nd Feb 2023
and all as "NET 4.8". (screenshots taken today attached). Should I just leave things as they are? Any advice would be gratefully received.

 

No new NET framework updates since February? Just checking.

 

no again net updates? very strange............................

 

Moin @ All!

My May 2023 ESUpdate experience for Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 systems:

"Licensing method": KB4528069 & "new" BypassESU-v12

"Installing method": Manual download and installation via Microsoft®Update-Catalog

KB5026366 (Cumulative Security Update for IE 11 for Windows Embedded 7 Standard / Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1) -> succesfully installed

KB5026426 (Security Only Quality Update for Windows Embedded 7 Standard / Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1) -> succesfully installed

The following additional updates were offered by the Microsoft servers via the Windows Update Search and were also successfully installed: Security Intelligence-Update for Microsoft Security Essentials.

@ abbodi1406: Thx for your support! Great job!

 

Thanks a million for putting my mind at rest abbodi1406. My computer has been working fine during these last months
so I didn't hit the panic button...but it bothered me that I couldn't understand why it had happened. Many thanks again.
