WHDownloader - Support and chat

@abbodi1406

I found the Windows7-Legacy files are updated.

WHD lists Changelog updated.

But the updates lists I downloaded from WHDownloader are still the old ones.

Thanks for the links, I didn't notice that there are Enterprise N edition released.

But after All searching, I can't find these images' download links:

Code:

I think maybe I need someone who has the MVS account that can download it.

As said before, MSFT removed them and denies they ever existed.

 

Should i add .NET 4.8.1 to Win10 19041 list?
or keep consistent with other builds with .NET 4.8?

 

Yes.
MSMG_ToolKit does not have your last VCRuntime and NetFX48. Installing NET48 from WHDownloader (Additional\NET48) does not work in WHD-W7UI, + does not install the extreme ESU "NDP48-KB5028958-x**.exe" atop ".Net Framework 4.8" (integrated by another tool)
...integrating all the latest updates into Win7 becomes like a quest using many tools and strictly following the sequence.

Question-desire: is it possible in WHD-W7UI to make updates from Additional\_NotAllowedOffline automatically installed at the first login? (or better: a folder from which any updates, registry tweaks, etc.).
Auditing and SetupComplete.cmd are useful tools... but when everything is inside (install.wim) it's "more interesting".

 

@abbodi1406

I have a question about the Windows 8.1 x86 update with WHD-W81UI v7.3.

Because there's no ESU update for Windows 8.1 x86.

Should I use the BypassESU-Blue-v1 before I use WHD-W81UI v7.3 to install KB5028228 or not?

 

No need
WHD-W81UI installs the same ESU Suppressor

 

Those are three different things

- i'm not contributor with MSMG Toolkit

- regarding WHD-W7UI and NET 48
https://forums.mydigitallife.net/goto/post?id=1796357#post-1796357

- WHD-W7UI already handle those updates and add them to install.wim, except KB3046269

 

I'm talking about this:
+ Updated the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Pack (Windows 7/Windows 8.1/Windows 10/Windows 11) with VC++ 2022 (14.36.32532) Runtime (Thanks to MDL Member : abbodi1406)
+ Updated the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 Pack (Windows 7/Server 2008 R2) with .NET 4.8 KB5022509 (4.8.4614.10) Runtime (Thanks to MDL Member : abbodi1406).

...finish? Or should we expect the latest updates from you?

 

Afaik @MSMG does his own repacks for those addons, based on @abbodi1406 his packs.

Dear Prof. @abbodi1406 I have a clean Windows 8.1 Update3 x64 system, and I used WHDownloader with your updatelist Windows8.1-Update3-x64 of 8/8/2023 to update my system via your script installer WHD-W81UI v7.2, I have a few notes and questions please:

1) Why are there two SSU files in the baseline folder? I see no use of Windows8.1-KB3021910-x64.msu which dates back to 2015, am I missing something?

2) In the Do.Not.Integrate-Info.txt it is written that these updates can not be integrated automatically, but when I check "Installed Updates" those 4 updates are actually automatically installed by your script.

3) Windows 8.1_Update3_x64_iso contains 34 pre-installed updates, which as you know some of them are superseded by newer updates, when I select resetbase in your script I still get those 34 updates, none of them is removed from the "Installed Updates". Furthermore, I see no output messages related to resetbasing when running your script.

4) Why is with each run of your script installer the latest SSU (Windows8.1-KB5027574-x64.msu) get detected and installed? I know it get installed with the first run, but why to install it again, is it some bug with the script installer?

5) I know that ESU updates need special care to install them (e.g. ESUs Standalone installer, ESU eligibility suppressor or bypass), but isn't possible to make WHD-W81UI capable of automatically handling ESU updates? I think WHD-W7UI already can do this for Windows7 ESU updates.

6) After installing ESU updates using Windows 8.1 ESUs Standalone installer, I run your script installer (WHD-W81UI) to see if there are any updates left; surprisingly, I still get those already-installed ESU updates detected (e.g KB5029312, KB5022525, KB5027141, KB5028970). But this time WHD-W81UI successfully re-install them without popping up an error message (which prior to using ESUs Standalone installer is popping up).

Kindest regards
