Simplix Pack to update Live Win7 System/ Integrate hotfixes into Win7 distribution

Whenever I try to use Simplix or the integrator app I get a message "Your computer must be restarted. Do you want to restart now?". And it shows up every time and doesn't integrate anything.

 

Is there a tutorial on how to do that? I don't even have w10 installed atm, but if the end result means I don't have to get monthly packs from Russia I'm down to give it a whirl!

 

Read OP.

 

I just installed the latest simplix pack and everything seemed to work after a few reboots, but when I go to windows update it is still showing the 12 important updates that brought me here aren't installed. Still same old Code 8024200D error as well... grrr.

 

You can safely ignore them.

 

Well... 9 of them are security related. Ignoring them doesn't exactly give me a warm, fuzzy feeling.

 

Then you can atleast share a screenshot of the actual KBs windows update is offering... The screenshots in your thread aren't very informative...

KB2862330 is replaced by KB2862330-v2
All the others are in the update pack since late 2013(at least according to the changelog).
Can't see the KB number of the .NET updates, but I suppose those are in there as well. Check your installed updates an use the search function.

It seems all updates you see in Windows Update are included. In any case, it's pointless getting paranoid about these updates. They are the least of your worries if and when you catch "a bug". Just relax, grab a bag of Ruffles, some cola and go enjoy a movie.
You can always use the update pack to prepare an iso in case you decide to perform a clean install.

Which brings me to the following question: do quality rollups for .net contain anything "unwanted"?

 

Thank you for explaining it better

 

Ok, so now I have another problem. My "menu show delay" set at 500 and "mouse hover time" set at 600 will not work.

It acts like it's set to zero. When I try to mouse over any menu, all sub menu's come up instantly making it hard to focus the mouse on anything.

I tried setting both of these registry settings to something slower but it doesn't change anything.

Any Idea's? This really needs to be fixed.

I applied your update to a fresh install of Windows 7. It has been doing it ever since.

I even disabled "Animations in the taskbar and start menu" in the Performance options and that did not fix it either.

 

I don't know if I'm able to answer that since I simply don't know. All I know is that immediately after the update
my menu delay was changed to super fast and when I went to try to change them the settings were normal
and changing them to anything else does not change the delay time at all.

And as I showed earlier, that was not the only issue I had. My system restore was completely disabled.
I was able to fix that one.

This system was only 4 days old when I installed your update package and it did not exhibit this behavior
before the update. I have never had a reg edit not take effect. But even after several restarts it still will not
allow the registry changes to take affect.

Edit: So just to be sure, I went ahead and did a selective start up with just loading system services
and it gave me the same result. I will try a diagnostic start up and see if that changes anything.

Edit: Same thing with diagnostic start up. Nothing but basic window structure and I still get this same problem. I can edit the registry but the edits don't change anything.

I even tried to change the blinker cursor rate just to see while in the diagnostic mode and even an extreme number did not change anything.

It's like the operating system is not listening to what the registry tells it. Very strange behavior.

Edit: Ok, so I went ahead and created a new user account on the same computer and it does not
exhibit the same behavior. So this appears to be a account issue and not a whole operating system issue.

Edit: Well apparently my account is corrupted somehow. I tried every way I could find to fix it but it's a no go. What a pain in the ars. Even the transfer wizard could not transfer my settings or save them.

I think if I do this again I will do it on a temp admin account and then when all is done go and make my normal account. Simply too much work to do this all twice.

In the end I suppose it is completely possible that something was wrong with the account in the first place.
Anything is possible.

 

Thank you Enthousiast for all your hard work.

 

No update for November yet?
