Thinkpad4 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 On this page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4472027/2019-sha-2-code-signing-support-requirement-for-windows-and-wsus it says Legacy Windows operating systems will receive Stand Alone and Preview of Monthly Rollup updates that introduce SHA-2 code sign support. Now my question is the stand alone patch will be just that stand alone, right? Also, will this be available on the Window Update Catalog because I've had issues using Windows Update and would rather download the patch from the catalog instead of in Windows. Thank you very much 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radish Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I don't know the answer to your question. But the following post I made a several months back is relevant to Windows 7 and SHA256 signing. By my reading of the Microsoft document you point to it seems the offered patch only works against Microsoft Updates whereas the update that I pointed to works with (as best as I could figure it) third-party files that are SHA256 signed. I have no idea as how the two different patches would interrelate to each other. I too would be very interested in the stand-alone that you mention, and how to get it without having to do a Microsoft update (which I would want to avoid at all costs).

Thinkpad4 Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Any word on what the KB number of the stand alone patch is? MS's site is awful to navigate and I can't seem to find a straight answer on sites that are reviewing the latest Feb patches.

Thinkpad4 Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 Ok, the patch is out but which one is it? This one: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4474419/sha-2-code-signing-support-update-for-windows-7-and-server-2008-r2 or this one: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4490628/servicing-stack-update-for-windows-7-sp1-and-windows-server-2008-r2 Which is the one I need?

Tripredacus Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 They both update different files, and from the file list, it would appear that both should be updated. KB4474419 seems to be specifically for enterprise environment, since it references WSUS, while KB4490628 does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinkpad4 Posted March 15, 2019 Author Share Posted March 15, 2019 Anyone have any issues installing the patches on x64 and/or x86? Like boot-loops, hanging systems, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB4474419 seems to be specifically for enterprise environment, since it references WSUS, while KB4490628 does not. actually the SHA-2 update is just KB4474419 and applies to all Win7 editions and for all environments, not just for enterprise. Windows Update does offer KB4474419 for any Win7 edition if it is not already installed. KB4474419 will be required to install any new Win7 update made in August 2019 and beyond 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
