On the Windows Server 2008 R2 lifecycle page at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-server-2008-r2, it says that Server 2008 R2 updates are available until January 9, 2024 if ran in an Azure server. Would there be a way to apply these updates to Windows 7 when they come out?

Having the Address toolbar turned on breaks the taskbar (such as making it taller and making the time default to what you would find on the Large icon setting). Before: After:

...why would you delete critical system files to remove an option?

Not saying I don't have it, but someone probably has this question as well.

ah yes, StartAllBack Anyways, great work @Tihiy! Much better than Start11 in my opinion.

I updated StartIsBack, and now Explorer crashes every 10 seconds update: fixed by restarting

The internet games require a connection to their servers. Either there would be a custom server people would use or a modified version that uses peer to peer instead of a central server.

Will this be a free update or a paid upgrade after release?

making a listing here because Tihiy didn't make one yet, happy to delete StartIsBack(TBD) Preview 1 http://www.startisback.com/tbd/ Patch notes are in the above link, here are the warnings:

I want Office 2010 to install silently, with a retail key (for both Office and Windows).

The only way to revoke old activations are to either wait 30 days, or to contact .

Sorry, but you have to clean install. I think there's a safeguard in place to prevent people with the leaked build to use 22000.

You mean Windows 11?

TaskbarIsBack

From my testing, StartIsBack++ works perfectly fine on the latest version of the Windows 10 Insider Preview (before Windows 11 is released). It even adapts the new icons into the Start Menu. However, it does not like Windows 11 (leaked build)'s new explorer and crashes every 5 seconds. Note that updating to the Insider Preview may cause a deactivation, considering my Office install had to reactivate.

MSFN was down for days now. Just went back up for me. What happened?

With Badlion, you would probably get banned from any BAC-protected servers from it finding something fishy going on. I wouldn't recommend it.

If there is, will me doing a reinstall of Windows on an existing computer count as a new one?

the website doesn't even work, it's been blocked by the domain provider for containing malware

I'll see if this works. Thanks!

Is it possible to install MSU updates in bulk? I have a lot of updates to install.

Changed it so that it credits you as well.
