I am completely out there a year ago once built a version with Simplix. If I would now build an Enterprise version, is the update capable, with the ESU patch from Abbodie
It will be updated with the latest and most likely last ESU updates but if you want you can install ESU Bypass by @abbodi1406 manually.
I would write the bypass of Abbodie into the stupcomplete anyway. My question was actually only about whether the updates work with the ESU patch from Abbodie. hope my english is not too bad *g mean the monthly updates whether they would then still work with the patch from Abbodie
Why not simply apply it offline at forehand? The current simplix pack contains the last updates for win 7. And i don't expect any new updates for 7 to be released, or maybe simplix comes up with something containing updates from posready (or is it wes) usable for normal win 7, i don't know..
yes all difficult, I build times one, for very weak PC. comes anyway not to the network, thanks for your answer. Wish you a good evening
There's no news on anything before actual patch tuesday comes. No need to ask the same question every other day.
Is there some easy way to reduce installation size? If WU will likely end, or already is, would it make sense to purge WinSxS or whatever there's on Windows 7.
IIRC, Simplix needs SP1 and maybe .NET Framework, I definitely had to download SP1 for my ancient Win7 ISO when reinstalling recently. Otherwise it should be a complete set of updates, you won't need anything else from Windows Update.
Use clean sp1 refresh iso from 2011 + updatepack + abbodi's addons for dx/vc++/.net to create an up-to-date iso. That's it.
After I read your post, I decided to run my saved UpdatePack7R2+.exe file, just to see what would happen. Sure enough, UpdatePack7R2-23.2.4.exe started to download. But on 4 separate occasions several minutes apart, it failed to completely download. UpdatePack7R2-23.1.11.exe updates Windows 7 to January 2023. Unless there are further updates on the next "patch Tuesday" and beyond, I will stick with the install disc that I have already created.
