I Want to Keep Windows 7 Forever

Yep, they recently sold out. But I follow several projects there and so far that's the go-to site for stuff of many projects and what have you including a security script I use. Can't help they sold to MS, but it is what it is. And my website software phpBB is hosted there as well as many extensions I use for it.

Apologies if this has been discussed, but does anyone here know a link to a thread or site where a list of New Windows 7 Updates is published? A list that "by Date" shows what has been released to the corporate subscribers to, what is it, the ESU plan?

As I think about this curiosity I have for What I Might Be Missing it seems to me MS should be making this known to people, if not to inspire them to buy ESU then to try to get them update to W10...

Same as they do for W10 and W8.1, Microsoft have an update history page for W7 here:

Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 update history
https://support.microsoft.com/help/4009469/windows-7-sp1-windows-server-2008-r2-sp1-update-history

Currently lists 'April 14, 2020—KB4550965 (Security-only update)' as the most recent.

Win 7 Pro it is worth having if you have a real workstation this serving primarily productivity than gaming and pleasure.

Only thing that it did bother me, this is Microsoft web site Win 7 related packages software descriptions.
We knew DirectX component by it name and they changed it to Platform Update for Windows 7 ?

Microsoft does not respect even money earned from us IT, by them destroying windows product support tree by starting demolition from the tree roots.
