  1. Hello guys. I had been around for a while updating my computers with XP until April 2019 and everything has gone well for me.

    I just reinstalled XP on a computer but I can't get the updates from WU or MU. I don't get an error, it just doesn't seem to connect.

    It can not be anymore? Since when? Has it been for the new SHA-2 since August 2020 or was it July 12, 2019?

    Regards.

    It's funny how someone who attacked a network full of Windows XP machines just ignored them, went straight to the one running Windows Server 2019 and managed to compromise it...

    I have always thought that having the latest is never the best. The latest operating system (or now version of Windows 10) is the worst thing you can have for security. Computers must be updated but not to the latest version. For example, it is better to have Windows 1803 updated than 1809 updated. Microshit uses our computers as a test bench and the correct updates are passed on to companies after 4 months or more. The proof of this is in the Windows 10 itself, update options and selection of the download semi-annual channel.

    The problem is, that I cannot download updates via Windows Update, page does not open. Is there any trick to do so, or should I install Microsoft Update first?

    - Install: SP3, IE8, Windows Update Agent. I use 7.4. Install Windows Update Agent 7.4.7600.226 which is the last one with manual installation. The 7.6.7600.256 has automatic installation but needs the previous agent already installed, so if there is no agent installed you have to start with 7.4. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/946928/information-for-network-administrators-about-how-to-obtain-the-latest (Change en-us to your language as pl-pl?)

    - Switch from Windows Update to Microsoft Update:
        - Activate Control Panel / automatic updates and it is important to wait about 5 minutes
        - http://www.update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate
        - Install ActiveX until it says it has been installed.
        - Close IE8.
        - Turn off automatic updates.
        - Reboot. If it fails to repeat again expecting more.

    So this new XP update.  There are two flavors -

    Security Update for Windows XP SP3 (KB4500331) - Windows XP
    and
    2019-05 Security Update for WES09 and POSReady 2009 for x86-based Systems (KB4500331) - Windows XP Embedded

    Which one am I now?  Through Nov 2014 I was XP.  Since then I've been a cash register.

    What's your guidance?

    Since 2014 when we made the windows hack to continue receiving updates, always Microsoft update or Windows update have offered Posready updates. Never XPe updates. Check your update history.

    3 versions: Posready, plain XP and XPe.

  5. I have spent time collecting all my updates of Windows XP SP3 + IE8 + Posready + Office 2003 + compatibility 2007/2010 + All Frameworks. I have used as a personal guide the update history of microsoft update giving it to print in pdf file. I have downloaded almost all of the Microsoft update catalog and some of Google. The few missing ones have been deleted from the catalog by obsolete or replaced. I have ordered 987 updates by installation date.

  6. Hi. I am doing a compilation of my Windows XP updates from SP3 May 2008 to April 2014 and from XP Embedded / Posready from May 2014 to April 2019.
    I think of several methods. Which one do you recommend?
    1.- I have downloaded the updates from the Microsoft catalog and I think some do not appear when searching for them, it depends on what is searched: XP, Embedded, Posready... although I know they are there because when searching for them with KB they do appear. In addition some newer ones must overwrite other old ones so these should not be necessary.
    2.- Look in Control Panel, Add and remove programs, View updates, point the KB number and download them. Will they all be listed or just some?
    3.- In VMWare install a clean XP, install SP3 and give update. When you start to install, cancel, search inside c: \ windows and copy them.

    I have no Netflix account so no "login" button shown, but "Sign in" button seems OK here (Firefox 52.9.1ESR). But this reminds me of a similar problem on Github: The "Branch: master" button do not work, e.g. https://github.com/sdlpal/sdlpal 

    1.PNG.a3cb48c676d06fa594da13fa2252dae7.PNGIn stead of expanding it only shows a grey line when clicking.

    I cannot remember when this begins, and maybe due to some change on the Github side. Should I uninstall any updates too?

    Since the updates of Firefox for XP ended, I switched to Mypal, which keeps updating.

    Beware of viruses in USB because with some update, if automatic playback was disabled, it is activated again.
    It has happened to me for a few months and with gpedit.msc I have not managed to fix it. There is using:

    regedit.exe     HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer\NoDriveTypeAutorun     0xFF

    Hi wyxchari, the link you posted above is no longer available. Could you please be kind enough to re-upload this file? I can't find the PTB version anywhere in the internet (besides Google, I've also tried the Wayback Machine and torrent sites). Muchas gracias!
