Windows 7 SP1, All You Need To Know, And Do
The first service pack for Microsoft’s operating system Windows 7, known as Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 7 Service Pack 1, is just around the corner for all users of the operating system. Microsoft shipped the service pack first to its OEM partners before making it available to subscribers of its MSDN or Technet service and business customers with Volume License agreements.
The service pack will be released on February 22 to the public. Microsoft will make it available via Windows Update and the Microsoft Download Center. Microsoft employee Brandon LeBlanc recommends that single PC or home PC users should be “Windows Update instead of downloading the standalone installer (or Network Installation Package) from the Microsoft Download Center” because of the better “installation experience”. Check the disk space requirements chapter to find out why it is indeed better to use Windows Update to install the service pack.
