If a customer purchased ESU as part of their Enterprise Agreement, an agent can verify the purchase by asking for the customer's Enterprise Agreement number or for the full customer name.
Typically, the License Summary displays recently purchased licenses within 24 hours after Microsoft receives a customer order from a Microsoft Partner. No new product enhancements will be made for Windows 7. ESU helps keep Windows 7 devices secure for a limited time, and assist customers during the transition to a supported version of Windows.
If an investigation into a customer issue determines that a product enhancement in a recent release such as Windows 10 resolves the issue, Microsoft Support will recommend that the customers upgrade to the most recent release. Because Windows 7 support has ended, Microsoft is committed to helping customers upgrade to a supported version of Windows or migrate to the cloud.
We'll provide best-effort support to troubleshoot issues for customers who purchase Windows 7 ESU. Security updates for Windows 7 will be released to ESU customers on the second Tuesday of every month. If there are no Critical or Important updates for Windows 7 in any given month as prescribed by the Microsoft Security Response Center , there will be no ESU updates in that update cycle. If an off-cycle security update is considered necessary, Windows 7 ESU customers will receive the update outside the regular monthly cadence.
There's no advance notification of security updates for Windows 7 ESU at this time. That post provides detailed explanations of all prerequisites and detailed instructions for deployment. For more information about how to install and activate Windows 7 ESU MAK keys on multiple devices in an on-premises Active Directory domain, see the following article:.
Nothing needs to be done to the Year 1 key to install the Year 2 key. The installation process for Year 2 is identical to Year 1 see previous question, above.
Yes, updates can be installed at any time. That allows you to maintain your existing patch rollout process when the Year 1 key is installed and activated on a device. The same applies for Year 2 and Year 3. Organizations can deploy the new MAK key and any prerequisite servicing stack updates to the applicable devices, then continue their typical update and servicing strategy to deploy ESU by using Windows Update, Windows Server Update Services WSUS , or whatever update management solution the organization prefers.
It is also the process that organizations have to follow to update Azure Stack. However, they don't enable the device to install updates beyond their designated time frame.
But it won't receive any further updates in Year 2. The update is programmed to look for the MAK activation on the endpoint, and will install only on those systems together with the MAK key. ESU updates aren't supported in offline servicing mode. Applying ESU in offline servicing mode generates an error, and updates fail.
The number of activations that are available will depend on the number of licenses that the customer has purchased and also the terms of that customer's specific licensing agreement. For exceptional scenarios in which additional activations are required, Partners should use Partner Center to open a support request. When security updates are available, Microsoft releases these monthly — on the second Tuesday of each month. Thanks for your feedback. F Ballesteros.
