Fre Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Hi, is it known when Windows 7 ISO downloads will be available again? I need a Windows 7 Home Premium X64 German OEM image. Edit: I found a working ISO, nevermind Edited January 2, 2020 by Fre Quote
Jan Krohn Posted January 7, 2020 Author Posted January 7, 2020 2 minutes ago, AllisonEvan said: I think it is currently unavailable to download, or I'm doing something wrong? Correct. A few Office 2010 downloads are still available from links that were created yesterday, which will have disappeared by the end of day. But Windows 7 is already gone for the month. Depending on when exactly MS shuts down the downloads API after Windows 7 end-of-life, downloads might or might not come back on February 1. Quote
Brickstin Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) At Midnight Tonight January 10th starts. Microsoft ends support for Windows 7 Editions Does this mean these generated iso links won't be able to be done anymore? is it pretty much to late? Edited January 9, 2020 by Brickstin Quote

For a definite answer, you might want to contact Microsoft and ask them when they plan to shut down the downloads API. Everything else is speculation. (My personal speculation is that it's too late. But let's wait and see what happens on 1 February.) Brickstin 1 Quote
sasdf1717 Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 @Jan Krohn Hello Jan, what's the difference between the 2018 edition of Windows 7 (escrow) and the older ones witch everyone seems to want instead? Does the 2018 edition not work correctly or is it worse somehow? Thanks! Quote
Jan Krohn Posted January 12, 2020 Author Posted January 12, 2020 I think it's because of the telemetry updates in the escrow version. Quote

Just download a clean media refresh iso, use simplix updatepack on it(download abbodi's addons and put them next to the updatepack if you want). You'll achieve a much better result.

They are indeed badly and unprofessionally made. Looks like somebody installed Windows 7, installed updates, syspreped it and added it back to the WIM file. I would use the original Windows 7 ISOs from 2011. Tony GoodWeather 1 Quote

Djsmallboy Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 When can I download a new version of 8.1 because am using windows 7 so when can I download windows 8 Quote

If the edition that you need is not available now, the next chance to get it will be next month, starting March 1. Unless Microsoft takes down the API by then. 1 hour ago, Djsmallboy said: When can I download a new version of 8.1 because am using windows 7 so when can I download windows 8 Windows 8.1 is always available for download. There is no restriction like for Win 7. Quote
SnowBall Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 PM me for Windows 7 downloads, be sure you include enough information (architecture and SKU). Quote
LemonIceCream Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I need ISOs of Project and Visio 2010, should I wait until March or is it already too late? Quote
SnowBall Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Nope, they were never distributed to consumers in ISO format. I can give you digitally signed EXE files if you provide enough information about the product you want. Quote
Yuti Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) Hello! Who has the installer of Office Home and Business 2010 x32/86 RU or EU version? Edited February 24, 2020 by Yuti Quote
drixomanbeta Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 Anyone have Simplified Chinese Win7 Ultimate SP1 x64? My timing is horrible so can't get thru with the downloader. Quote

I just got a bit confused because Project 2013 ISOs exist online but I need 2010 for Windows Vista. I just need Project Pro 2010 and Visio Pro 2010. It doesn't have to be activated because I'll just use MS Toolkit. Thanks in advance! Quote
SnowBall Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 Could you please PM me some more detail about the product you want (architecture and SKU)? Quote
Ernesto Ruiz Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Una herramienta excelente y que te da certeza sobre la fuente y origen del software. Felicidades por su trabajo y talento invertidos Quote
Arnoldas Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Hello. I have a few questions. My father bought me an Acer laptop back in 2013 and it was really good, yet throughout many years later it became clogged with trash making it very frustrating to use so as a solution I thought to reinstall Windows. Obviously. I needed the correct disc but the only disc I could find in that old box was a Resource DVD - which wasn't enough to do it. The correct disc wasn't included in the box from computer shop I bought it from. At the time of the purchase I knew less about technical stuff so I never even noticed it. The information I dug up is that before I bought my laptop. Windows was installed already but a reinstallation disc or even the product key sticker were not included. Granted, I did manage to find the key but it was the manufacturer's installed key. When I typed it to the Microsoft webpage (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7) I got an error and was redirected to a forum where the only solution other than borrowing it from others was do download the ISO from your webpage but even then I noticed the downloads are restricted to a certain day. My Office programs are from 2007. So I'm wondering WHEN is the right time to download (writing this on 2020 March 4th) and if it's it even going to help me succesfully reinstall it. All other alternatives and tips that I'm not aware of are very welcome. Excuse me for errors, english is not my native language. Best regards. Quote
Jan Krohn Posted March 7, 2020 Author Posted March 7, 2020 @Arnoldas The download days start on the first of each month, and usually last six or seven days. Unfortunately you've just missed them. Quote
