Windows 7 binaries? #166
Comments
It should be possible as long as the updates can be downloaded from the Microsoft Update Catalog, and it seems that at least some of the Windows 7 updates are available, even though Windows 7 is EOL for more than 2 years. Personally, I don't need Windows 7 binaries, and I think most people don't. Actually, I've been thinking about adding ARM64 Win10 and Win11 to Winbindex, which I think will be useful to more people. May I ask what's your use case? Security-related? As you understand, I'm not very excited about indexing Windows 7 binaries, but I might change my mind if there's enough interest from more than a couple of people. Meanwhile, you can grab the scripts in the data folder and try to adjust them for Windows 7. |
My use case is checking for and confirming behaviour changes/bugs between Windows versions. I don't have a specific need at the moment, but I'll try adjusting the scripts when I do. |
i'd also like to have here windows 7 binaries (and 8/8.1) if possible |
i found an way to find those updates that are not on microsoft update catalog |
@nutterthanos if you want to work on it, the main things you need to change are these files: For an example of a different data source, you can check out winbindex-data-insider. |
Is it possible to include older versions of Windows in the index?
