    I meant a new installation of Windows 7. Before it worked without any problems.
    Even if I click on update in MSSE, it does not work.

    Are you using MSSE or Win Defender? My version of Win7 was upgraded to Win Defender which was turned off when I installed MSSE.
    MSSE was turned on. Basically same system using same signatures.

    Check your security & update settings from inside of Control Panel & your AV. WU on? AV options on as you want them? Is AV on?

    Does your MSSE have administrator rights?

    I use MSSE. This actually always has admin rights and I don't have any other av.

    If you have access to manual updating by opening MSSE & clicking "Update" then I suggest setting a daily quick scan time & allow MSSE to update 1st.
    If it will not manual update then that could mean a whole another can of worms. Was your copy of MSSE "clean"?

    This could have a bunch of answers. Kind of like asking why your car won't start. You could start with a complete MSSE uninstall & clean. Then close everything.
    Turn WU off. Do a clean install of MSSE with admin. SEARCH "MSSE installer 2025" & be sure to visit links you can trust for info & downloads.

    Only 64bit version MSSE for Win7 being updated with server updates.
    Have uploaded latest #'s from my MSSE version. Good luck.

    Moin @ All!

    My May 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

    KB5058380 (Cumulative Security Update for IE 11 for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64) -> succesfully installed

    KB5058454 (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!
