You can also order for Windows 7 SP 1 DVD to Microsoft. Or directly download ISO Image DVD which you will need to burn on a DVD to install. #For 64 bit system: Download Windows 7 SP1. #For 32 bit system: Download Windows 7 SP1.

It really gives off an air of sloppiness, and again, I would not expect that from Microsoft these days.If the Windows auto Update is enabled on your computer, then SP1 is probably already installed on your computer. But making it available from a long-abandoned web page that is accessible only via Microsoft's browser, requires an ActiveX add-on, and doesn't work is just baffling. The rollup, service pack, call it what you will, is desperately needed and a good decision. This package will be distributed over Windows Update. This will be a continuously evolving, cumulative batch of non-security fixes. So, the dependency doesn't qualify it as a service pack.įor updates released after April 2016, Microsoft also plans to produce monthly rollups of non-security updates for Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012/R2. You could install SP2 for Windows XP without having to install SP1 first. One reason why Microsoft is not calling it Service Pack 2 is because it requires Service Pack 1 to be installed.

On clicking on the Microsoft link, I got this error: It will not be distributed via Windows Update.
The blog post announcing the servi-, er, convenience rollup says the download is available only via Microsoft's Update Catalog site. Getting it, though, is currently proving a challenge. But be warned: it will not be delivered over the Windows Update service the way Service Pack 1 is made available to a fresh Windows 7 install. For whatever reason, it is not named "Service Pack 2," but who cares.
