    It's normal. Microsoft does this for the Out-of-band (OOB) updates. Guess this may be due to how they assign KB IDs. When you check the catalog details, you'll find out 2025-06 is the latest.

    Good job. I run into this same problem on occasion with MU downloads failing. I immediately go to manual download & install. Continues to work for me. I mostly use WU like an alarm clock to let me know when an update is available then I use the manual download & install method to save time & heartache.

    Again, well done.

    But these are regular updates (Security Monthly Quality Rollup) on schedule and not Out-of-band (OOB) updates and never noticed that before since November 2024 where you have to use Windows Server 2008 R2 updates to keep Windows 7 up-to-date.

    Security Monthly Quality Rollup x64 for Windows Server 2008 R2

    On June Patch Tuesday I couldn't get KB5060996 (Cumulative Security Update for IE 11 for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) installed.
    I kept getting an error message saying I needed to update a module. I checked and double checked that I had downloaded the correct
    KB file. I even wasted time searching on-line for the mentioned module on Microsoft "help" pages. I finally gave up, thinking it was my
    error in some way.
    Then I came here to MDL today and checked Sinclair zx81 's post (as I always do on patch Tuesday since we both download the same update files)
    and I saw that he had installed KB5060996 without any problem. So I tried again a few minutes ago...and this time it installed without a hitch.
    I have no idea why it wouldn't install on Tuesday. I had rebooted, checked the KB number etc. etc
    So thanks to Sinclair ZX81 for his post which led me to try again.

    Meanwhile, the Windows 10 users are worrying about their coming end of support.

    TSForge works the magic for 10, already, by installing 3 year ESU licenses..

    My Digital Life already has Win 10 forums set up just like most versions of OSes. You should go back to the beginning & do some exploring. On your own.

    I discovered that, since March, no updates for the MRT are offered on Windows Update if patched to Server 2008 R2 with ESU. Tonight, after making a 2020 Windows 7 ISO, I discovered it was being offered on non-patched, non-ESU-enabled Windows Update (i.e. stock Windows 7 WU). Updates are also listed on the Catalog for Windows 7, Server 2008 and 2008 R2. What is the issue? Can it be fixed?

    MRT is also not offered for a real Windows Server 2008 R2. The detection rules for 2008 R2 are missing from Windows Update metadata, though the rules for Windows 7 and Server 2008 (non-R2) remain.

    Probably an error on Microsoft's part.

    The issue is also present on Server 2008. Vista patched to Srv2008 also offers February version 5.132, while it should offer 5.134. I guess they just broke Server versions. Other than that, it actually lets you install it on Vista, but it won't run saying the version isn't supported.

    Please install KB5012632 and make a screenshot of Control Panel->System and Security->Windows Update->View update history
    I see a empty page only...

    I've solve it.

    Blue screen of death (UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR) after installing KB5062632 monthly Rollup July 2025

    After installing the KB5062632 monthly Rollup July 2025 on VirtualBox version 6.1.50 I get a blue screen of death with the error message UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR as soon as I reboot.
    I've tested live OS integration as well as creating an updated image and a clean new installation which results in the same error.

    The processor is an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X I have for over a year and didn't have this problem before.

    Does anyone else have this problem with a newer processor?

    The Update worked fine on my AMD 9950X, are you using the 13f version of ESU Bypass?

    Moin @ All!

    My July 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

    KB5062065 (Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 4.8) -> succesfully installed

    KB5062558 (Cumulative Security Update for IE 11 for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) -> succesfully installed

    KB5062619 (Security Only Quality Update for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) -> succesfully installed

    The current Security Intelligence Update was downloaded and installed by the auto-update function of MSE.

    @ abbodi1406: Great job & thx for your support!

    I have the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X and have no problems with installing and using the KB5062632 Update.
    And you have the VirtualBox mode and not the standard mode; this can be the problem or you have not the lastest drivers or firmware´s installed; it can be that thing that makes your problem.
