Windows 7 Slipstream update failed

Just curious, unsupported or doesn't work?
Newer DISM features don't always work when servicing images of previous versions of Windows. To learn more, see the DISM Reference.

Does that mean if I don't use fancy DISM cleanup modes, shouldn't DISM be backwards compatible?

Or is the Servicing Stack permanently broken? I remember someone trying to build a multi-edition ISO with W7 inside the W11 ISO not working, but he said W7 inside W10 ISO worked fine.
 
Usually, newer DISM / ADK have issues on downlevel Windows, but not the opposite way around

e.g. Windows 7 Host will have issues updating Windows 11 or Windows 10 > 1903 images
even Windows 8.1 can't service Windows 11 > 22H2 images properly
 
Hello everyone! Sorry for posting here, but I don't want to start a new thread.
Slipstreamig updates to Windows 7 failed for me too, but in another way.
In my case no warning appeared during or after integration, and then I tried the created ISO in VMWare.
Setup booted successfully, but after the first reboot, the system won't start, stops on boot screen without any error.
No NVMe patch was installed, only those which had been listed by NTLite.
Don't know if I'm missing any update or included something that causes Win7 to stops booting and stays on boot screen.

Update: forgot to mention, installation using the source ISO (found here) booted on the same VMWare configuration (SATA HDD, guest OS set to Windows 7 x64).

If you're using VMware platform, don't forget these settings:
- Guest operating system / Version is Windows 7
- UEFI is disabled
- check the disk type (SATA/NVME/etc.)
 
I have forgotten so much about W7 patch lists, that I don't care to re-learn it again. This is my W7 SP1 EOL patch list and it works.
Follow it and stop trying your own list. W7 is a dead OS with respect to updates unless you're using the ESU bypass.
