Update to Windows 7? The title may sound strange, because the end of support is supposed to mean the end of updates. Today, however, a patch was released for the 2009 operating system for devices still running it.
The update was necessary because the "latest" update of Windows 7, released in January, had problems with the operation of the wallpaper, showing a black background in the stretch option.
From a technical point of view, Microsoft should not have released any other updates for Windows 7, since the operating system has already reached the end of support. But because the error was hers, the company seems to have made an exception and provided another fix.
The update is available for Windows 7 users as KB4539602, and must be downloaded from Microsoft Catalog Update.
For installation the devices must run the update version SHA-2 (KB4474419) or a newer version and the latest servicing stack update (KB4490628) or a newer version.
What you need to know is that if you were using Windows 7 with Windows Update enabled, both of the updates that are required to install the latest fix should already be on your device.
Microsoft says it is not aware of any issues with this update, so we expect it to be installed correctly on all devices.
But since we are talking about Microsoft, let's wait a while and it will show. Those of you who are considering upgrading to Windows 10, you can still do it for free.
