I am running windows 7 Home premium 64 Bit and did NOT purchase the microsoft ESU subscription so i understand that i no longer get security patches. My question is does it do any good to install the newest SSU kb4537829 from the MS catalog and can you? Should microsoft ever release a critical patch for windows 7 as they did for XP i figure this newest SSU may be needed?
First, there is a workaround to fool Microsoft’s ESU check. For now it works

Second, you can enlist for 0Patch service (half the price in the first year, 1/4 of Microsoft’s price for the 3 years) : https://0patch.com/
