Windows 7 users have always dreamed about a second service pack for the operating system, but despite rumors, Microsoft has never released it, preferring instead to concentrate on its newer products, such as Windows 8.
Instead, Redmond rolled out what it called convenience rollups, which are nothing more than cumulative updates for Windows 7 that included more than just a single fix into one easy-to-deploy pack. Basically, users were allowed to bring their computers fully up to date with just one reboot, which is quite helpful for those who set up a computer for the first time.
“We continue to listen to feedback”
But while the software giant promised to release such a convenience rollup in 2015, it turns out this is no longer the plan, with the focus now on Windows 10 (which, by the way, is getting its own cumulative updates every once in a while).
