Some ESU updates not showing on Windows Update

Topic

New Reply

I got the Win7 ESU license, installed it and recently also installed kb4538483.
Running Windows update to retrieve the available relevant updates I get a list that has one one entry under the “Windows 7″ section, an update to Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool”.  Nothing for Windows Rollup or Internet Explorer.  (I see available updates for Office 201 and 2013 that I have installed.)

Has anyone run into the same or found the reason why the Rollup does not show when Windows Updates is run?  (I have auto updates disabled.)

Did you install the January servicing stack?  they threw that in at the last minute and if you don’t have that you don’t see the security updates.

Try downloading THIS and see if that does the trick.

thank you.
I had to install kb4516655  for the rollup kb to show up on the list (I already had everything else on the list spelled out in Plus Newsletter 17.8.0)
I still do not see the kb for IE, but I can download and install it later from the catalogue.

The KB4516655 update is an older Servicing Stack update released in late 2019 that was later superseded / replaced by newer ones like the Jan. 2020 servicing stack KB4536952 update that Susan mentioned

Thanks.  It took installing KB4516655 to have the Feb Rollup to show up on the list of available patches
Then installing the the rollup also installed 4536952.
I see this info on the list of installed patches generated by running the following from a cmd window:
wmic qfe list full /format:texttablewsys
(redirect the output to a file by adding to the end of the command the string
> c:\temp\patchList.txt
)
