Newbie needing help to update Win7

Hello guys!

Nice to meet you all, my name is Eduardo and I am from Brazil! Searching for a tutorial in the forum and found no response so I decided to create this post. If there is explanations on how to use it properly I ask to apologize me because I did not find it. I've been playing Overwatch (a Blizzard game) the last 3 weeks, but a patch launched 2 days ago is causing my game to crash. One of the steps suggested by Blizzard's staff was to update my Windows, since they found some errors on my MSinfo archive copied to a notepad. Sincerely, my friend had use a image to install my windows and turned it to a genuine software using a loader. My apologies if you don't support that, I'll totally understand if you can't help me due to this fact!

Let's continue If there is no problem. My OS is not updating, I've tried some simple stuff like trying to update it manually using the Control Panel, changed some settings and nothing seemed to work out. Then I found some posts on forums talking about this program and I'd like to give it a try, but since I am totally newbie about those stuffs I'd like to have some help from veterans.

I've already downloaded it and opened the Update Generator to see how it works, but I am afraid to do something wrong. To have my Windows 7 updated, do I need only to run the UpdateGenerator (I got "Verify downloaded updates", "Include C++ Runtime Libraries and .Net Frameworks" and "Include Service Packs" options selected), wait all downloads to be ready then run UpdateInstaller?

What is the best way to have my OS updated, is it really using this software? Thanks for now!!

The procedure you described is correct. First download it the install.
But personally (just my opinion) I won't support cracked OS'es as that could cause malfunction of different core components of Windows & often contains viruses.

A loader does not make your Windows genuine, it just bypasses the checks.

I can't provide full support as I don't want to support piracy & I don't even know, if wsusou behaves as it should.

Many do not even do that, they just hide the warnings and fake the messages for the user.
