More Windows 7 RTM Updates [Dated To Get Released On 22/AUG]

Windows 7 is not even out yet for public, so officially those updates are also not out. Microsoft can put any numbers on it till Windows 7 gets released on 22 october

 

yeah... i dont want to reformat my sys in 1 month or so... im not installing any of theses... no one can confirm if they should be installed or not.

 

Guess I will wait till it is official.

 

So......as of today, how many updates are there total for Windows 7 x64?

 

See post 92 from this topic, more i dont have either. I have total 21 updates for x86 and 21 updates for x64.

I saw in a screenshot someone had the following updates:
KB674101
KB974333
KB974431

KB974473
KB974598
KB974719

I can't seem to find them anywhere though.

 

Thanks Stunna!

 

Why not ? they are signed by microsoft.

PS: You have a update from may, RTM didnt release that soon. I guess its a RC1 patch.

 

nice reading till page 8. now just a quick question, is it either for Ultimate OEM version?
if yes, i m gonna try it out
thanks and waiting for yr advice mates.

 

I wonder if these updates will be released officially via WU only on the 22nd of October... doesn't Microsoft care about all the testers, employees, MSDN subscribers, *cough* pirates *cough*, using W7 right now? Plus, it is a pretty buggy OS right now, even if it's fast and in every way better than Vista was (and I loved Vista). For example there's the annoying aero stutter bug, and no, it's not a driver issue, I installed W7 in tens of computers and it's always there, making W7 feel less snappy than Vista.

 

I have not experienced the Aero shutter bug. I suggest you get your eyes checked.

Some of these updates will be on WU, can't say how many for sure but there will be quite a few of them on WU.

 

Its there regardless of the system configuration, some perceive it as stuttering bug some perceive it as a "snap to" animation, but its not as smooth as vista.

 

There's obviously small things that are gonna be apparent in Win 7 some will be really obvious others not so much. Just deal with it for now and let's see what updates M$ will roll out with.

Like i said i have not experienced any issues with Aero maybe it's cause i am running 2 video cards i don't know.

 

Here are the list of updates from the two main packs that were posted for Win 7 updates (these are just the x64 files):

PHP:

Windows6.1-KB123334-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB123456-v2-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB674103-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB675605-v2-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB675606-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB973525-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB973751-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB973874-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974039-v2-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974138-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974176-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974179-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974204-v2-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974327-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974332-x64.msu
Windows6.1-KB974638-x64.msu

This is fairly consistent with what others have. Is it possible for someone to post a list of updates that aren't part of this list? Playready excluded of course, its not a Windows update per se.

What would be good is if someone (who is willing to do this) start a new thread dedicated to Windows 7 updates, such that the first post is always updated with new updated with new updates once they become available. The updates in Stunna's pack can be a start point. The post then can be updates with new individual updates (or if more than one becomes available at any time add them all in one pack).

If the list of updates makes the thread to large, then they can be all combined (or grouped combined) and the individual links removed to make room for new links.

ANYONE with updates that aren't part of the first post thread can upload them or make arrangements to get them to the maintainer so it can be posted.

Its just a good way of doing it instead of creating new threads when a new batch is available, or have posts lost amongst current threads that you have to hunt down.
This is just an idea, but

 

If by aero stutter you mean taskbar occasional flicker then I have that problem too.

 

everyone who doesnt understand what signed updates are and are confused that if they are official but not available on windows update......

since XP and before microsoft had many tons of updates for specific purposes and were never uploaded to windows update. they were specific to one to one relation and then would be emailed. or are specific to brand and were given to OEM's.

based on that where these updates are coming and are they real. a BIG YES

 

w/c update is the one for the boot animation, id like to install that even if its not yet on WU though.
