    Hello. Just want to confirm that you can
    Code:
    run installer.bat > install KB4528069 > run remover.bat > install Servicing Stack Update and Security Monthly Quality Rollup
    all without rebooting in between? I know you have to reboot after, just making sure whether you need to in the middle of it.

    Hi, I tested on a fully updated till 2020-01 group A virtual machine, switching to group B, and installing KB4537767 and KB4537813.
    Then, after running cleanmgr.exe, nothing appears for windows updates to be cleaned.
    Is this normal?

    it will not hurt to keep the test update

    @liam2
    security only updates do not supersede monthly rollup

    OK, so from what I'm gathering by the posts made after my most recent one...

    With the successful install of the Feb SSU (thanks to the test update) after the successful uninstall of the bypass, it's waiting time for March's ESUs & then see if anyone is able to install them without the bypass. If so, that means all the bypass was ever needed for was to install the test update. If not, then that means a new version of the bypass would have to be developed & distributed to the users here.

    Hello everybody.
    Thanks for providing a tool to keep Windows 7 alive!
    I've been reading the 68 pages long forum, and found a lot of useful and misleading information.

    What I've gathered so far, is that the bypass needs to be updated to allow the installation of the February SSU KB4537829 which might be necessary for the March ESU updates.

    The recommended steps here to get the February ESU updates are:
    1. Install BypassESU v4
    2. Install Test update KB4528069 (can be installed using older (January) SSU)
    3. Remove BypassESU
    4. Install KB4537820 (Security Monthly Quality Rollup) or KB4537813 (Security Only Quality Update) + KB4537767 ( Cumulative Security Update for IE)
    5 Forget about February SSU KB4537829 for the time being
    Without Test update KB4528069, it seems we can't install ESU updates.

    I found on another site, the following steps which enabled the installation of all the updates including February SSU KB4537829
    1 Install the bypass.
    2 Install the ESU Test update.
    3 Remove the bypass.
    4 Install the SSU KB4537829. (Installed before any security updates)
    5 Install the KB4537820 update.
    Has anyone tried that? Does it work?

    Thank you for reading me.

    That is the update that will suppress all ESU checks, so that all ESU stage updates will install, with the bypass removed.

    @Enthousiast: I didn't remove the bypass at all and everything worked perfectly anyway. Hence my question, could it be better to have the test update for the future. And also the thought, since this update is no longer officially available, would the installation still work.

    Ok, I have simply done it. The installation of the test update KB4528069 was successful and is flagged as "important" in the update history :)

    I don't know who posted this or why, but it is obviously racist and an insult to this website. It should be removed, and the writer should be permanently banned.

    I strongly encourage everyone to report this post to the site owners.

    To the poster ...
    Unless someone hacked your account or otherwise posted falsely using your name, your comment is an embarrassment to yourself and an insult to the other members.

    In any case, please edit or delete it.
