Windows 7 how to continue updates from Microsoft

As we mentioned in previous publication, there is a way to enable Extended Security Updates on all systems running Microsoft Windows 7.

Support for Microsoft Windows 7 has stopped January of 2020, but businesses can extend support for up to three years, depending on how much they pay.

Small businesses will have to pay Microsoft up to 200 dollars per device per year for extended support, while large businesses up to 200 dollars per user per year. Extensive support is already available and there are certain conditions that must be met.

Microsoft does not offer the Extended Security Updates program to users of Home editions, even though some would pay for it. company to extend support to Windows 7.

Windows 7 users participating in the Extended Security Updates program must install an updated version which verifies that they are eligible to receive new updates after January 14, 2020. The extended updates security files can be downloaded online but cannot be installed offline, at least not yet.

But users in the My forum Digital Life discovered a way to bypass the Extended Security Updates check. The bypass works with the test update released by Microsoft, and we don't know if it will also work with the actual updates the company will release after the January 2020 Patch Day.

Let's see how you can get the updates:

1. Bypass installation. Download the latest version from Gitlab. The code to open the file is 2020.
2. Installation of ESU Test Update KB4528069.
3. Restart
4. Install updates: KB4538483, KB4537820, KB4537767and KB4537813.
5. Restart

There is another way than Deskmodder :

1. Installation of bypass and ESU Test update.
2. Remove the bypass.
3. Installing SSU KB4537829 and immediately after installing KB4537820 update.

Note that the above two modes work so far and will work until Microsoft takes action.
