    The OP offers multiple download options to obtain the updatepack, the USB3 generic driver will be integrated/installed when the updatepack is used as described.

    Just wanted to double-check, is there a manual installation technique in the OP ?

    I do prefer manual installation for my initial effort with this. Also, I have an unconventional set-up, in that I copied a Win 7 install.esd into Win 10 installation USB. So I'm inclined not to try untested slipstreaming if I can avoid it.

    The win 7 install.esd in a win 10 ISO will be the modern scripts, but they need clean MSDN ISOs to be able to integrate the updates.

    Untested slipstreaming? You mean updates integration? this pack is developed for over 12 years ;):D

    The updatepack can be run by simple command lines, as shown at the OP or maybe the ancient batch files (not maintained for a very long time):
    Or simply drag and drop the ISO on the updatepack.

    But this is my project (approved by @simplix):
    MDL Win 7 Tool for SiMPLiX UpdatePack AiO ISO (with install.wim/esd) Creation

    Sorry about the confusion, I meant untested by me. I understand this is a good solution, I'm only concerned about spinning my wheels via my user errors.

    I'm not sure whether or not you're saying I can't slipstream into the Win 10 installation USB that's using a Win 7 install.esd ?

    Are you saying the resources at the mediafire link won't work without slipstreaming ?

    (OP)
    install.esd can not be serviced, install.wim is needed, when al is done you can compress the install.wim to install.esd.

    When you want a win 10 ISO with updated win 7 install.esd, use the modern scripts from my (recommended) tool.

    What mediafire link?

    Thanks so much! Now I understand.

    Before I read your last reply, I went into the USB 3 thread. That other thread's original post has a link to USB drivers at mediafire.

    The updatepack command lines are at the OP, no tweaks or reg files, just updates and the WA addons..

    On the other hand, Windows Server 2008 R2 can receive updates until October 2026 via connected Azure Arc 1.39 agent.

    ? what other hand?

    This is your first post here on MDL, for "on the other hand" you either need to have another related post/reply or quote what you're replying to.

    kb updates will be available on Windows Server 2008 r2 via Azur Arc agent 1.39 in private mode and be careful it is reserved for companies and it is chargeable for ESU licenses from February 2026
    on the other hand in February 2026 you will not be able to install the server 2008 r2 updates on Windows 7 Because Windows server 2008 r2 will no longer be on the public catalog because the server 2008 r2 will be in private mode via Azure Arc until October 2026

    And the only thing that matters in this specific thread is what simplix provides us with, wherever he gets the updates for his updatepacks, only he provides the packs.

    gonna need some sauce on that, nowhere does it state that 2008R2 will get updates until October 2026 via Azure Arc.
