This software is not supported on computers that are running Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (SP1). If your computer is running Windows 7 with SP1, and you try to install Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7, the following error message is displayed: "The update is not applicable to your computer." This limitation is by design, and is documented in the
Windows 7 with SP1 Deployment Guide.
To run Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 on a computer that is running Windows 7 with SP1, first install Remote Server Administration Tools, and then install Service Pack 1.

This workaround applies only to the SP1 upgrade; it will not work if you install Windows 7 with SP1 from a DVD. Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 with SP1 is scheduled for release in Spring 2011.
