  Windows 7 SP1 will change the version number from 6.1.7600 to 6.1.7601.

  NOTE: Security updates listed here will be grouped by each year they were released.

   NOTE: It is not necessary to download & install all of the updates listed on my page.  You are not required
              to install them unless your system has suffered serious problems.  Make sure you download the
              patches for the correct operating system.  You can uninstall most system updates from your system
              if they cause more problems than they fix.

  I've made this page simply for informational purposes and to make downloading updates faster & easier.  All the updates for
  Windows 7 listed here can be installed under any edition except for the 64-bit (ia64/x64) versions.

  Key = Windows 7 is Windows NT 6.1.7600.16385
            SP - Service Pack, NT - New Technology or Network, IIS = Internet Information Server, Cli. = Client
            RDP - Remote Desktop Protocol
  [a little star * indicates a new system update; the <> symbol means to install a patch with caution because it may have a
   possible side effect; I am not responsible if the updates you download here do more harm than good]

Notice: Microsoft has ended support for the original/RTM release Windows 7 on Tuesday April 9, 2013.  Win7 users must
update to SP1 to receive full support and to install any updates listed below.

and install the WinHlp32.exe Help Program to restore the ability to view .HLP help files in Win7.  The KB2670838, KB2729094,
KB2731771 & KB2786081 updates are needed before installing IE10 on Win7 SP1.
<> - The KB2670838 Platform Update for Win7 SP1 may cause blue screen errors on computers with AMD/Intel hybrid
graphics hardware.  Download and install updated AMD/Intel hybrid video drivers that are compatible with the KB2670838 update.
