Hi Dynentan,

i have been updating windows 7 since i made this thread, and its still downloading updates. it seems almost impossible to do because it will either say updates failed, or it will say windows is updated, and then the next days it says theres 42 new updates available.. isnt there some way of downloading all the updates all at once, officially from microsoft?

Well, sort of!

You can download and install the latest Monthly-Rollup which is cumulative. Then check for other WU's like .NET etc and any computer specific updates.

Updating WU's does take many many hours [using M$ WU's] because of the amount of time needed to download and install them, along with the numerous restarts needed. You are talking about well over 200+ updates. SIMPLIX and DISM++ do NOT include any Telemetry or supercede updates etc, which is why they are the recognised and TRUSTED method on this forum!

I hope this helps!

OS 32 or 64?
Install this first
April 2015 Servicing Stack Update download page and scroll down to the download links. Click the appropriate link to download the update for either an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit version) of Windows 7.

Install this second
Windows 7 SP1 Convenience Rollup
direct links
Download the 64-bit version.
Download the 32-bit version

If the direct download links don’t work or you just want to download the update in the official way, you’ll have to download the Windows 7 SP1 Convenience Rollup from Microsoft’s Update Catalog website.

Alternatives
DISM++
SIMPLIX UpdatePack

Hummm... Microsoft blocking that link!
This this direct link to x64 Apr 2015 service stack >KB3020369<

im going to try it.

That is the OLD OUTDATED method and to be honest it is of NO benefit doing it that way anymore.
