Creating an up to date Windows 7 ISO!
In this video, I show the process of creating a Windows 7 Pro x64 ISO with ALL updates (Including ESU updates). This brings Windows 7 all the way up to January 2023 patches (as that is when ESU updates officially ended). The base ISO I used was Windows 7 updated to August 2018. Microsoft did delete that off their servers, however you can easily find an archive of it online.
It's nice to have an updated ISO, as updating Windows 7 can be a pain. I will only have Windows 7 on either VMs or old computers, since Windows 7 is unsupported and programs are dropping support for it like crazy!
I will NOT be providing any download link to this ISO, however you can easily make your own ISO by following what I did in this video! You could also do any edition that you want, for this video I did Windows 7 Professional.
Thanks for watching, and more videos coming your way!
