CAN I INSTALL A WINDOWS 7 SERVICE PACK 1 INTO A WINDOWS 10 ?

 

down load of windows 10

Hi,

I would like to inform you that in-order to upgrade to Windows 10, you should be running
Windows 7 Service pack 1 or Windows 8.1 operating system.

If your operating system is without service pack 1, I suggest you to first install service pack 1 on your Windows 7 machine and then try to upgrade to Windows 10.

Refer to the following link:

Hope it helps.

 

That article is dated July 23. There are currently two "Service Release" patches expected, which I guess work out to be the same thing as service packs. The N/A next to Windows 10 on this list: Windows lifecycle fact sheet - Windows Help

... is probably because there haven't been any released yet. I think it would be hard for Microsoft to predict what kind of support a new product will need at its outset.

 

Just another "journalist" who is making stuff up, and then claiming it's "confirmed" because he misinterpreted a web page.

He came to the conclusion that there won't be any service packs because it says "N/A". That's the wrong conclusion though. This lifecycle page gets updated when a service pack is released, and until then it would say "N/A".

In fact, Service Release 1 is due out next week.

 

Here another article, same thing no sp

That doesn't say no service packs. It says Enterprise customers running Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB, can defer upgrades if they want. How did you read no service packs from that? Has absolutely nothing to do with consumer versions of Windows 10. And as already mentioned, the first service release is due next week? Only the name has changed, IMHO. basically what Microsoft is saying is there will not be a Windows 10, Windows 10 with Service Pack 1, Windows 10 with SP 2 etc. It will just be Windows 10.

The Service Pack Question
Will Windows 10 have service packs and should IT pros wait for the first one to arrive before installing the new OS? The experts don't think service packs for Windows clients really exist anymore in the new Window-as-a-service world.
"No, Windows 10 will not have service packs," Kleynhans explained.

 

It's still not Microsoft saying that, so what does it really mean? What are those statements based on, fact or fiction? And like I said, there are talking IT Pro's in an Enterprise business environment. Better still, why does it matter? Why do you care? What real impact does it have on consumers? Windows will still be patched and updated just like it always has.

 

I never said Windows 10 wouldn't be patched . I'm just mentioning there might not be no service packs . And time will tell whether it will be fact or fiction. I'm betting its a fact

 

Fair enough, was just wondering what your purpose for this thread was? To me, it doesn't really matter that they will never release anything called a service pack, which is the way I read it. As long as the ISO's are kept current and updated every so often. Or the service releases are downloadable by them selves.

 

That was my thought what would we do 5 years from now if there no SP but like you say as long as they keep ISO updated is the concern . It would sucks and I can't see it happening if every time one does a clean install they would have to update thier comp from July29/15

 

If MS didn't update the ISO I would like to have the ability to save each SR so I can perform the updates myself if I have to reinstall 10.

 

Exactly . Imagine if they didn't or put a surcharge for it

 

They updated the Windows 8.1 ISO's and added the Nov Update, don't see why they wouldn't do the same for Windows 10. MSDN lists Windows 8.1 and Windows 8.1 with Update ISO's for download. And the Windows 8.1 MCT includes the Update as well.
