Does anyone have a list of all the updates after SP1, what they are, if they are good or bad, etc.? Both important and optional ones. Or if someone can point me you a recent website that has the list laid out that would be helpful too. Thank you very much

I would recommend you use WHDownloader, a program developed by the good guys over at My Digital Life Forums: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/whdownloader-download.66243/

It uses various update lists, mantained mostly by user abbodi1406 and downloads all updates you've selected. It comes with the option to even downloads updates if you choose to install the Convenience Update Rollup, KB3125574, or not. You do have to register on the forums, though (which I do recomend, since you can find all sorts of community made programs that are extremely useful).

Thanks

I use:
 

service pack 2 (Convenience rollup update)

Windows6.1-KB3185330-x64

windows6.1-kb3197867-x64

Windows6.1-KB3192391

Let me know if important kb are missing, note that the list does not include internet explorer KB, because I disabled it.

Even if you don't use IE it's still worth keeping it up to date because of security reasons, just saying. That said, I quite liked IE 11 when I used it back when I was still running Windows 7. It worked for most sites I tried it on and Edge is a step back in my opinion.

In total there should be around 190 updates for Windows 7 after a clean install of SP1.

I have edited the list, remove KB2852386.

Also, Internet Explorer is blocked in my firewall from connection to the internet.
