New Windows 7 and 8.1 ISOs Now Available for Download

However, it looks like Microsoft hasn't completely forgotten about its
previous Windows versions, so this week, the company decided to roll out
new ISO images for both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.

You probably didn't see this coming, especially because the software
giant is hard at work to get Windows 10 version 1809 (October 2018
Update) ready for all devices across the world, but users who want to
clean-install any of the two OS releases mentioned above can now get the
official images from Microsoft.

Previously, Microsoft was offering Windows ISOs via Digital River
downloads, but the company then decided to pull them completely without
providing a different ISO download method.

Product keys required

The software giant decided to stick with Windows 10 since its launch, so
even if it continued to support both Windows 7 and 8.1, no official ISO
images were offered to users. The Microsoft download page now lets you
choose the version of Windows 10 that you want to download the images for.

Does anyone know what the Win 7 ISO includes? SP-1 or perhaps ALL updates
since?

The last time I downloaded 64-bit W7 HPE ISO had SP1, but that was a
couple years ago.

I suspect it's still Win 7 SP1, now that M$ is trying to push Win 10.

Same here. We can do that for now, but I think our days are numbered. And
if it isn't the browser limitations, it will be something else, I'm afraid.
But at least I think I've heard that someone has come up with a patch to
prevent the constant forced updates.

Yeah, I am not sure where to go next. I might go Linux 100% even though
I still need some Windows softwares.

New Windows 7 and 8.1 ISOs Now Available for Download
 
Interesting story...

I'd be a bit warry of these though.

Why is Microsoft suddenly releasing "NEW" isos ? Or are these actually old ones ? Being made available for download ?

One should do a bit by bit comparision of everything. The iso's, the install files and finally the installed files.

To see if anything changed.

If it did change, there is most likely NEW spyware inside of it.

Known spyware inside Microsoft Windows and trojan like software is:

1. Ofcourse Windows Update - BIG FAT TROJAN HORSE.

2. Telemetry bull**** for windows 10 update.

and recently I found:

3. Windows Error Reporting....

It's inside "action center" click the deceptively innocent looking "maintance" blue text which is actually hiding a concealed menu.

From there more information can be seen.

Unfortunately I was so ****ed at this processing I already deleted the files but even after deleting the reports... there is still information present... quite interesting.

It collects data about installed software, times of installation, and even times of updates ! Amazing spyware and registration...

And it gets uploaded to microsoft and intercepted or shared with NSA.

4. Probably others....

Maybe now new ones ?!

Keeping America or Europe or the World SAFE is one thing.

But what I hate about all this crap is:

It taxes the harddisk quite heavily...

It's ****ing annoying.

Especially when Firefox starts and updates itself or whatever... Windows Error Reporting sneaks in a report or something and it just get cluster ****ed...

Don't know exactly what's going on but it's annoying.

So I disabled as much as possible from it... but even after it's disabled euhm still think this **** is effective somewhat.

Ever seen this:

"Windows is looking for solution"... that kinda crap ? Well this is part of it...

Disabling this might help...

Anyway... I warned you ! =D

If you install TOR or other suspicious software Microsoft and NSA will immediately know about it and thus you will become SUSPICOUS ! ;) =D

Bye,
Skybuck =D

Bye,
