    Well, I tried to do that, but I got an error saying that WU couldn't get run. I can't remember what the error number was, but only after I deleted that folder did I get offered the updates.
    I ask this question because, after rebooting, I can see that the folder is already in place.

    On the reboot the softwaredistribution is created by windows.

    Now it's all working, no need to redo it for this purpose :)

    Great! Thank you!

    Now that I have rebooted, I can't see the previous updates, only the six newest ones recently installed. I reckon this is normal, right?
    And can I delete the unpacked BypassESU-v5-AIO or is it necessary for future updates?

    Yes, after deleting the softwaredistribution folder all update history is deleted too, only "installed updates" will still show all installed updates.

    You can delete it, or keep it safe for any future need.

    Hello,

    does the Lite version work on 2008R2 as well?

    Regards

    v4 and the Lite version are replaced by v5 and from its readme:
    Code:
    * An alternative approach to suppress Extended Security Updates eligibility check for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.

    I've been following this thread since V4. So far, so good. But I don't quite understand what this part is about. Is it a necessary step for the bypass to fully work? What does it do, exactly?

    That's for offline installing it on a mounted wim, to be able to pre-integrate the ESU updates.

    I can't get updates because I use a 8th gen Intel Processcor. Wufuc doesn't seem to help for ESU. Any Ideas?

    Thank you.

    I used the lite version. Then the Version for the windows WU after. March dont know if I will get the updates or I will have to look. Should I put v5 in and see what happens?

    Anybody have any suggestions what to do since my computer refuses to install KB4536952?

    As a reminder, this is my situation:
    https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...pdates-eligibility.80606/page-93#post-1580525


    1. Is it possibile to install the latest security updates (Feb 2020) using an alternative method that does not require KB4536952?

    2. If #1 is a no, do you think a future update to BypassESU and/or Microsoft Servicing Stack has a chance of installing & working correctly if KB4536952 is never installed?

    3. Do you think the computer has a virus or something that prevents the install of KB4536952?

    4. Realistically, will I ever get further security updates to Windows 7 given by inabliity to install KB4536952? Because if that is the case, I will just forget the whole thing and upgrade that computer to Windows 8.

    OK. I have all the updates and patches for WU to let me know. Some of us here doesnt have v5. We were here at the beginning.
    Well see then
