Windows 7 Component Store Cleanup - Rebase

[Vasudev]

Note that new versions of windows 10 and 11 will be available tonight on the forum.
Vasudev and humbert must be eagerly waiting for them.

Already downloaded latest Win 10. Like I said, I've skipped  Win 11 completely. I have a hard time finding drivers that work properly as advertised on Win 10.

Which ones?
For information, those drivers were integrated in windows 11:

Note that I'm eventually preparing an updated edition of Windows 7, for those who are still using it.
It will be available soon.

I meant "which drivers?"

I agree. It's way to early to upgrade to Win11. Let's sit back and let the hackers develop tweaks to make it more useful. I'll wait no less than a year, if not more.

Specifically Alienware Command Center and Kionix accelerometer generic driver are  very hard to find. I'm trying one after another through windows update that doesn't cause sleep of death on idle, slow boot etc..

Apparently we do not have the same values (I'm just using a generic wireless mouse). As far as Alienware command center is concerned, it seems the current drivers are working with windows 11...

I know most people do not use Windows 7 any longer (with the exception of Virtual Machines).
However, as a way to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Windows 7 release, an October 2024 version of Windows 7 Unofficial SP2 has been prepared.

This should be the final update cycle (no further updates for Embedded versions) for all x86 editions of Windows 7.

Additional information and download link from Google Drive can be found at my blogspot. Download location may change in the future.

Happy birthday Windows 7! Your UI and stability are being missed.

P.S. I hope everyone around here is doing fine. I haven't logged in for a very long time. Time flies...
