I knew there had to be a good reason I was still hanging onto it. I must have read your same message years ago & just forgot; still hanging onto it & updating it all this time. Thanks for the reminder & facts for everyone else. I agree; M$ is not to be trusted. ;>))
Deep integration of the Trident engine (that's the actual framework part) already started with the IE 4.0 "Active Desktop Update", for the few who still remember. Before, the Desktop and Explorer were mostly static, and you could only use BMP (and maybe DIB, RLE, don't remember well) as Desktop background. Active Desktop brought JPG and even "website as background" support, and much more. It has stayed integrated since then and only now MS detaches the OS from Trident (just to make the same mistake again with Edge).
It isn't mistake. It is future. Can fully replace that example for Firefox or other browser without be with much browsers.
Of course we tell about Internet Explorer browser. Not about that all Active X IE what Microsoft will kill to 2029.
Seven4ever said: ↑ I have 2 PCs under W7, one is up to date with patch 13f, got december updates thanks for it. Second pc have error because I had stopped updates for some months: It got updates to november 2023, it is patched with version from 02 march 2023, when launching update i get error 80072EFD . What are the steps to update it including december 2024 Kbs? abbodi1406: Did you use WSUS Proxy or Standalone WU ESU Patcher? try to remove eachYou mean I do remove all and install 13f directly ?
I run Win7 as a guest OS on my Macbook Pro via an antique version of Parallels (later versions only support the latest versions of Windows and MacOS, which are no use to me). Some time in the past, Win7 developed a glitch whereby it sent square wave pops and crackles through the sound card and wrecked the speakers on my laptop. It also had a habit of putting these onto any sound file I was editing. I therefore use Windows XP for this, and also for burning CDs, as it is rock solid and I never have any trouble with slowness, processor overload or pops and crackles. XP does all I want except browsing and is half the size of Win7. I use Win 7 when browsing mostly since the browsers stopped supporting earlier operating systems, and thanks to this site, I am still reasonably secure for now. I examined the sound drivers, and most have identical copies in the Repository, so it is less likely these have got corrupted. However, there is one (ksthunk.sys) that is not in the Repository that was originally installed in 2009 (and probably came with the installation disk), but seems to being updated monthly, certainly since June, with the latest update being in October. Would this be part of the monthly rollup? Ksthunk is a converter to allow 64-bit programs to be run on a 32-bit system. Since the Mac is 64-bit, and so is my version of Win7, I am wondering if this is causing the soundcard problem, corrupting sound files, so the overload is played and then wrecks the speakers. Would it be wise to restore the original version of this file, and hope that Windows Update is not corrupting it with updates?
So fine, removed proxy, error has gone but of course no new update found What would you suggest to get latests updates, apply directly 13.f patch with 2008 r2 server or apply intermediate updates with another patch ?
The updates would be the same regardless it can help to ensure that latest SSU KB5039339 is installed
I have unistalled WU ESU patcher (it was v11) and installed V12 for W7 embedded. With it, I got and installed : kb4054095 from 10/24 kb5044356 from 10/24 kb5039339 from 06/24 Then I have donwloaded and installed V13f, over V12, select updates for 2008 server R2 and finally got and installed : kb5048695 from 12/24 and older ones I have masked. Thanks for the tool
Me try again vmware + turned integrated memory + paravirtualize SCSI with driver + Virtualize IOMMU if still will be BSODS by turned vbs in Windows host. I hope finally will work. But... If it install automatically WHP when install vmware, so it use that function for something. So then why BSODS in VMs after few moments on VMWare?
Thank you again to the developers of the all in one ESU patches! I installed the 13th version and was able to install both November and December security only updates without issue. Browsers are fine after installation of both updates (Waterfox Classic, Edge chromium and latest Chrome). I also installed latest IE11 rollup, NET 3.5.1 and 4.8 (removed the NET patch afterwards). Unfortunately, I couldn't install NET 4.7.x update (from October, already with old patch, then with new, then with standalone NET 4 patch), it always showed error before installation. Not a big deal probably, but in case any breach occurs in these components, I would like to get this update as well. Any ideas? Do I need any other perquisite for 4.7.x?
Thank you very much!! I was mostly concerned about security, but if the 3.5.1 and 4.8 NET updates are more than enough, then I am also more than happy! Many thanks again!!!
