    It is strange to keep a machine like that running, there are many used computer shops around, that will sell you a computer many generations younger for way below $100... No one can be that poor...

    hello,

    Sorry if this has been asked many times before, but I figured it^s easier to make a new post. I also had to re-register to the forums cause the decades old email address I had registered with died. anyway, I installed the original Bypass ESU tool in early 2022. The last updates I received were in late 2022. Since then I don't receive anymore updates.I thought that patch had died so I gave up and didn't check again.

    I now found out about WU ESU Patcher from march 2023 : https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...dates-eligibility.80606/page-358#post-1779528
    I suppose that was the reason why I didnt get any more updates.

    Question : now in Jan 2025, can I just install it and get all the updates I missed?

    From what I understand from the post mentioned above:
    I have all KBs above installed except the last tone - KB5016892. Can I simply install this and then run the tool with option 3? Is there anything else I should pay attention to?

    re: prerequisites, ""ESU Suppressor" and ".NET 4 ESU Bypass" are still required to successfully install ESU updates" <-- since I suppose I installed them but don't remember, is there a way to check if they are currently installed?

    thanks a lot for your help

    Yes

    if the options to install are not shown = the option is already installed

    Oh alright so using latest BypassESU-v13f is the best way, no need for the standalone WU ESU Patcher ? I was misled reading some reddit topics I think. Thanks for rectifying.

    Believe me, I take absolutely no offense in your message. I completely agree with it even. I probably am a slacker on the side because I stopped checking for a solution after a while back then (and didn't need one after the print nightmare was patched), but I do tremendously appreciate the work done to get this tool working and the help given in those forums. I don't think I'm a complete idiot though :) but I like to be on the safe side and make sure of what I'm about to do first.

    As I already said : thank you for all your work on these amazing scripts.

    Yes

    but if you already used the standalone WU ESU Patcher to set category as Server 2008 R2, then no need to change

    you still need BypassESU-v13f to install newest .NET 4.x Bypass

    Soon people will want that you use Teamviewer to download and install the updates for them on their computer.

    Moin @ All!

    My February 2025 ESUpdate experience for Windows 7 Pro / Enterprise SP1 x64 systems:

    "Licensing method": KB4528069 & "new" BypassESU-v13f

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

    KB5051972 (Cumulative Security Update for IE 11 for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) -> succesfully installed

    KB5052032 (Security Only Quality Update for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) -> succesfully installed

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

    @ abbodi1406: Great job & thx for your support!

    TSforge Activation (Windows/ESU/Office) (MAS)

    can be used for Server 2008 R2 / Embedded 7, instead WU ESU Patcher and .NET 4 ESU Bypass

    and Windows 7 for manual installation of ESU Windows updates post 2023-01

    .NET 4 ESU Bypass is still required for Windows 7 post 2023-01
