    Yes,you're right.

    I think it only x64, not x86
    Did I misunderstand something?

    I think you need WU ESU Patcher - Standalone, not just BypassESU v12

    I have been using WU ESU Patcher - Standalone for the past two months and have successfully received the latest patches. I think this situation will continue until 2026.

    But I have a question
    The ESU of Windows Embedded Standard 7 has ended support as early as 2023-10/10
    Why is Windows Embedded Standard 7 still supported in the latest update?

    This should also not refer to POSReady, since it's not just x86, it also has x64

    POSReady 7 is custom SKU of Embedded Standard 7, available in both x64/x86

    Oh I'm so sorry, I confused (I was confused with POSReady 2009 only x86 )
    Thank you for the clarification.

    Why would they release and decide the extension 3 years ahead?

    Hi everyone! After having installed ESU security update in January (for win7 embedded) I haven't logged in again here until now... Someone informed me that the rollups for server 2008 (compatible with win7 64x) are still released until January 2026. So, the security only updates are all gone? We only have the rollups now? I had an issue with an older rollup and my machine so I stopped them, but I could give it another try if there is no other possibility...

    It's x64 only.

    Thanks for pointing this out, I had been installing them manually this year. But now that I installed "standalone WU ESU Patcher" I am getting them thru WU again. Your are right it isn't easy to keep up with the diff versions of the patcher. I think the newest version of the patcher should be posted above the old patcher, so that it is top prominent and easy to find.

    Moin @ All!

    My April 2024 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

    KB5036632 (Security Only Update for .NET Framework 4.8) -> succesfully installed

    KB5036634 (Security Only Update for .NET Framework 3.5.1) -> succesfully installed

    KB5036922 (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 and .NET 6.0.29 Security Update for x64 Client (KB5037336).

    I have been using this tool to keep my two Win7 machines updated for several years without a hitch. I haven't updated one machine since December and went to do the updates today. In addition to the 4-24 quality rollup KB5036967, and .Net update KB5037038, I am also being offered KB4041083 (2017-09 .Net update) and KB4049016 (2017-11 .Net update). These are basically ancient. I searched the thread and no one else has mentioned getting these updates recently. How would you recommend handling these two? Install them like other .Net updates? Hide them? Sacrifice a pigeon to the update gods? Thanks
