I wonder if it will download uk English based on the Language / Region on the PC downloading the ISO.I'm not seeing a uk English
The Heidoc ISO Downloader lists English UK in the dropdown list.
@mr2legs,
If Mike's link doesn't give you English UK you could try downloading using the Heidoc ISO Downloader available here:

Mike and DaveE - hello again - your attentions are overwhelming.
I am cool for the 64 bit Pro on my desktop - installed from Microsoft Disc used already for at least two clean installs.
I am leaving the laptop well alone after the last fortnight! But I have dowloaded both the direct link iso and the installer for future fun! I have only the Factory OEM key and a (different) key from the Dell re-installation disc. If I used either of the ISOs would I need a key at all, and if so would the keys I have work?
As far as the accent is concerned - you will understand that we English speak English as English should be spoken - without accent.I can't of course speak for you guys.
However you speak you have been a breath of fresh air in a mean-spirited world and I am most grateful.
Just an afterthougt - I have rather defocussed this thread with my post introducing topics from the re-install Windows 7 thread because the effects were very similar. I think those struggling with the re-install might be appreciative if you could let them know of the existence of the SP1 ISOs.

To do a clean install with these ISO's you need to use the product key on the OEM COA sticker.I have only the Factory OEM key and a (different) key from the Dell re-installation disc. If I used either of the ISOs would I need a key at all, and if so would the keys I have work?
Here is a tutorial with a picture of a COA sticker:

While I appreciate your vigilance, you really should go outside every now and then.I occasionally drift off to sleep on the keyboard.
It's in the second link you posted. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2970908
I'll try the option this weekend and see what happens. I've been reading other threads and there seems to be a bit of luck here --> windows 7 update stuck at "checking for updates...".
If all else fails, there's a Microsoft store nearby... that offers to fix software problems for a fixed fee. Since they probably caused the problem, they should be able to fix it. Now go outside.
I have a quick question regarding Option 3.
Since this didn't solve my problem, is there a way to put my windowsupdate.log file back?
I read the bat file and it appears that you rename the log file to windowsupdate.log.bak.
I ask this as I went to an MS update web page and, of course, it offered me updates I know I already had installed, i.e. Office. I'm sure when I get this sorted out, Update is going to want to reinstall everything I already have, which will probably result in a whole series of failed updates. I'm thinking if I had an update history, I wouldn't have to re-download the last 5 years of updates....
Or is it the softwaredistribution file I'd like restored?
number42,
If you have at Windows 7 SP1 installed, then you might see if manually downloading and installing the KB3179573 August 2016 update rollup may help.
