Windows 7 failled to install update

Dusan10 · Mar 31, 2021

Hello. Shoft story, I had problem with one HDD, so i need to reinstall system on new SSD.
After installing, i enter license which is bought earlier for that PC. It is Windows 7 PRO version.

After i run system update, i got failed error on some update. When i checked what is going on, i found it was Security Update for Windows 7 for 01/2021, 02/2021, 03/2021.
When i tried one more to install, i can install them, and after restart i got error on configuring windows update.
Im not sure how im getting this update, because i think they are Extended Security Update, and i dont have license for that.

I just hide it for now but if u have any solution how to solve this i will be appreciated.
All files are attached and picture with error that im getting.

Hi,

To install the Windows 7 updates released after January 2021 you need to have an Extended Security Update license that is only available to purchase for Companies!

Because Microsoft stop releasing Windows 7 Security Updates to the public your best option is to upgrade to Windows 10, officially the free upgrade option ended long time ago but actually Microsoft didn't do nothing to prevent this... you can still do it today Download Windows 10

I know about Extended Security Update, and i don’t have license for that. I have only license for Windows 7 Pro. But only on one PC with Windows 7 Pro i still receiving ESU, but I’m not sure why.

When i try to install i get message that Windows failed to install update.

I read about that upgrade to Windows 10 is still possible, but i didn’t tried.
