Neither XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack for Windows XP Post-SP3 20180109 or XPSP3 QFE POSReady Updates 20180917 were originally offered with international versions included. user_hidden did offer language packs that could be integrated using DXUPAC, but I do not understand how this was meant to work, and they may not have been updated beyond 2018. The only option that I can think of is to examine each update included in the XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack and POSReady addon at the Microsoft Update Catalog website and download and open up those that include language options to extract the appropriate files to rebuild a localized version. The checksums for each language specific file would have to be revised in the registry entries, but I cannot remember which tool is required to do this. I must have it archived somewhere. I would be willing to create a Spanish version of the XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack and POSReady addon, for example, if anyone is interested.

Remove Windows Components Preventing a Windows component from installing can be problematic compared to uninstalling it after Windows installation is complete. Possible errors to look out for are missing Accessories shortcuts, missing WMI files and missing services. Please leave a reply if you experience problems. These addons are for use with the RVM Integrator only due to HexEdit sections.

Backup and restore file, services, and registry security permissions I always intend to backup security permissions for Windows folder, services and the registry, but I never get round to it. With this addon commands are added to the runonce registry key to back up all the security permissions the first time the user logs into Windows. They can be restored from shortcuts to batch files in the Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools menu if you are receiving Access Denied error messages. This addon is experimental so if there are any adverse effects from a restore operation observable through long term use of Windows they are not yet known. I advice making a restore point before performing a restore. Works with the RyanVM Integrator and nLite.

Cannot edit text size. Try again.

I am attempting to use the python module for downloading books from archive.org that can be only be borrowed for a one hour time slot. For some reason the downloads are no longer working, perhaps because I have borrowed the book too many times. If I try to compile a saved download using img2pdf and the modified official pillow 9.5 build using python -m img2pdf *.jpg -o output.pdf I receive the error message ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _imaging: The specified module could not be found. However I have had more luck using cmalex's build of pillow 9.5 which is included in his distribution of python 3.8.13 under the Whl\Compiled folder. It seems to be completely different from the official build and may have been built under mysys2 because various dependencies are included separately in a bin folder. The following files need to be moved from the bin folder to the PIL folder: libjpeg.dll, libopenjp2.dll, libtiff.dll, libwebp.dll, libwebpdemux.dll, libwebpmux.dll, and libzlib.dll. The only problem is libwebp.dll is missing the dependency libsharpyuv.dll. I cannot find a 32 bit binary distribution of libwebp, but that does not matter because img2pdf works fine without libsharpyuv.dll.

I am having trouble getting pillow to work with the archive-org-downloader.py module under Python 3.8.13. After downloading all the pages of a book as jpeg files img2pdf is not able to compile them as a single pdf. Here is the output message I receive: Traceback (most recent call last): File "archive-org-downloader.py", line 227, in <module> import img2pdf File "D:\Python38\lib\site-packages\img2pdf.py", line 25, in <module> from PIL import Image, TiffImagePlugin, GifImagePlugin File "D:\Python38\lib\site-packages\PIL\Image.py", line 94, in <module> from . import _imaging as core ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _imaging: The specified module could not be found. To work under XP I have modified the import directory of _imaging.cp38-win32.pyd and _webp.cp38-win32.pyd to change KERNEL32.DLL to kernelxp.dll, and in the Optional Header section the MajorOperatingSystemVersion and MajorSubsystemVersion have been changed from 6 to 5. The same changes to the Optional Header section have been made to _imagingcms.cp38-win32.pyd, _imagingft.cp38-win32.pyd, _imagingmath.cp38-win32.pyd, _imagingmorph.cp38-win32.pyd, _imagingtk.cp38-win32.pyd. I tried downgrading pillow from version 9.5 to version 8.0 but no joy. Should I use the pillow compiled by cmalex?

AS no-one wants to reply to my topic I might as well give you an update on my experiments so far. I have tried the following VPN clients that are compatible with XP: SoftEther Draytek Smart VPN Tau VPN TheGreenBow Shrewsoft Only TheGreenBow 6.64 and higher supports IKEV2 but these versions will not install on XP, although it may be possible to run on XP with some modifications. I did try installing version 6.64 on a Windows 8.1 machine but I could not connect to PureVPN using the host name, user name, and password supplied by PureVPN, but no joy.

Internet Explorer 8 These are my updates to the Internet Explorer 8 addons originally released by YumeYao and 5ereph at the RyanVM forum, and which includes the final IE8 security updates for POSReady 2009. System files are removed in these addons, so I have disabled their entries in sfcfiles.dll so that they are not flagged by the System File Checker.

What is the point of keeping a topic like this alive long after all the links to the addons have become dead?

The RyanVM forum has been down since early February, so I have decided to provide links to my Windows XP addons and update packs here. I recommend that integration is done with the RyanVM integrator version 1.6.1b2.1 which can be obtained here. It needs to be updated by placing 7za.exe version 16.2 in the plugins\7zip folder, and renaming it 7zdn.exe XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack for Windows XP Post-SP3 This is my update to the update pack created by user_hidden in 2018 with one extra critical update and some enhancements.

The ICCD Smart Card Driver is probably superfluous, because Windows XP ships with a ICCD smart card driver usbiccd.sys. Neither driver is installed untill a smart card device is connected to your PC. KB971286 - WinUSB 2.0 driver. The Winusb coinstaller and driver are included but installation occurs when a WCID compatible device is connected. Rather than require a custom INF file for the device the generic hardware ID WINUSB,USB\MS_COMP_WINUSB is used. In the Found New Hardware wizard there will be the message “this wizard helps you install software for: USBDevice”. Select “Install the software automatically”. If you prefer to use the WMTP driver delete the file wcid.inf in the %SystemRoot%\INF directory and it will be installed automatically. KB4500331 - A remote code execution fix for Remote Desktop Services (critical). The ActiveX version of Flash has been removed from these update packs, because no-one watches videos in IE8. The AppMgmt service has been removed from the Home Edition because this is a Pro version only feature, and the necessary files are missing from the home edition. The security tab in the properties of files and folders has been made available in normal mode for the Home Edition. The Windows Management Instrumentation consol has been added to the Home Edition. I have included an attachment with a list of what has been included.

This addon slipstreams all the POSReady 2009 updates released untill EOL on 09 April 2019 directly into a 32-bit XP SP3 source when used with the XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack. All files are from the SP3QFE branch. An update to the Adobe Flash Player has not been included because no-one plays videos in Internet Explorer 8. Windows Automatic Update will offer a number of obsolete version of gdiplus and the Cumulative Security Update for ActiveX Killbits for Windows XP (KB2900986) when the integrated source is installed. The gdiplus updates I recorded are as follows: KB4473077, KB4462987, KB4458000, KB4039384, KB4015383, KB3178034, KB3065979, KB3035132, KB3029944, KB3013126, KB2957503, KB2834886, KB2659262, KB4463361, KB4022884, KB2412687. This list is probably not exhaustive. They are installed as side by side assemblies in the WinSxS folder. The integrator cannot handle multiple versions of the same module in the WinSxS folder, so it is only possible to integrate the last POSReady 2009 version of gdiplus. Once integration is complete there will be two versions of gdi plus, one from the uppdate pack, and one from this addon. It seems likely that the last POSReady 2009 version of gdiplus is backwards compatible with programs written for previous versions since 2012. Therefore I recommend that you do not install these older versions of gdiplus and disable Automatic Updates. The XPSP3 QFE POSReady Addon and XPSP3 QFE Update Pack can be integrated into the source using the RVM integrator separately or at the same time. If the are integrated seperately the [Obsolete] section of entries_posready.ini will remove security catalogues and registry entries made by the update pack for updates made obsolete by the addon. If integrated at the same time the [ExtraFilesEdits] section of entries_posready.ini will prevent the update pack from installing the registry entries for updates made obsolete by the addon, and the [Obsolete] section will remove the security catalogues. 5ereph’s original XPSP3 QFE POSReady Updates 20180917 disabled the Jet 4.0 database engine. The registry entries for Jet 4.0 have been restored and msjet40.dll and msjetoledb40.dll have been registered in the ActiveX/COm section of the registry.

I did some research and discovered that there have been no Spectre and Meltdown kernel patches released for Core2Duo CPUs, so I was out of luck. As for the the POSReady 2009 updates mentioned here I am not convinced that they are intended to resolve the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. KB4056615 is covered by CVE-2018-0748 whose summary is as follows: KB4056615 has been replaced by KB4463103 which is covered by CVE-2018-8411 whose summary is as follows: and is also covered by CVE-2018-8330 whose summary is as follows: I have KB4463103 included as an update on my system and tests for Spectre and Meltdown mitigation showed that there was nothing. I am completely unprotected.

As we all know the the VPN service providers are phasing out their L2TP servers leaving us XP diehards with OpenVPN whose operation which can be erratic at times. Are there third party IKEV2 clients that we could adapt for connection to these public VPN proxy servers? Here is a list of of VPN clients that we could experiment with: HA Remote StrongSwann The Green Bow Soft Remote by Safenet TauVPN SoftEther The problem is that these VPN clients were intended for enterprise VPN networks and require lots of settings that are not known for the public VPN proxys. The software provided by the VPN providers may do the job, but the PureVPN client software requires .NET 4.5. Your thoughts and experiences on this subject would be appreciated.

I think that this may be caused by incorrect formatting of the yara rules and another definitions update may resolve it. An outdated version of yara-python might also be a cause except that we are using the penultimate version 4.3.0. Version 4.3.1 was released last week.

I have compiled Windows XP compatible builds of psutil-5.6.1 including the modifications I made in my builds of psutil-5.5.1. These include restoring the Return the number of physical CPU cores section using code from version 3.4.2, and removing the condition "#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600)" from the Get process IO priority as a Python integer and Set process IO priority sections. You can obtain direct downloads of psutil-5.6.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl and psutil-5.6.1-cp38-cp38-win32.whl from my 4Shared account. Also available as direct downloads from my OneDrive account: psutil-5.6.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl and psutil-5.6.1-cp38-cp38-win32.whl Included is the modified source code including ntextapi.h for Python 2.7 Incidentally compiling psutil without modifications under Windows 8.1 produces lots of warning messages. Is this normal or is it sloppy programming? _psutil_windows.c ntextapi.h Note: 4Shared is blocked in the UK, so UK residents need to access 4Shared from a VPN server located in the US or Netherlands.

After version 3.4.2 of psutil the section Return the number of physical CPU cores was removed for XP and VISTA because the developers preferred to use GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx rather than XP's GetLogicalProcessorInformation. I have restored the Return the number of physical CPU cores section for XP and VISTA in psutil-5.5.1 I have removed the condition "#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600)" from the Get process IO priority as a Python integer and Set process IO priority sections because NtSetInformationProcess and NtQueryInformationProcess are exported from the Windows XP version of ntdll.dll (5.1.2600.7682) You can obtain direct downloads of psutil-5.5.1-cp27-cp27m-win32-mod.whl and psutil-5.5.1-cp38-cp38-win32-mod.whl from my 4Shared account. Also available as direct downloads from my OneDrive account. psutil-5.5.1-cp38-cp38-win32-mod.whl and psutil-5.5.1-cp27-cp27m-win32-mod.whl Included is my modified source code. _psutil_windows.c Note: 4Shared is blocked in the UK, so UK residents need to access 4Shared from a VPN server located in the US or Netherlands.

nettaddr requires IPV6 to be installed because it is not installed by default as in VISTA+. In your Local Area Connection Properties install the network protocol Microsoft TCP/IP Version 6. The problem seems to be linked to the line IPV6_LOOPBACK = IPAddress('::1') in C:\Python38\Lib\site-packages\netaddr\ip\__init__.py. Maybe cmalex could help me sort it out. Alternatively I could raise an issue at the LOKI Github site.

The link to alexfree's website where you can obtain the source code is broken, so I have uploaded it to my 4Shared account from where you can download winxp_python3.6.15-src.zip. I have succeeded in compiling it according to the instructions given in readme.txt, and I would be interested in reading about other people's experience of doing the compile. I am mainly concerned about identifying where are the components of this Python 3.6 are located because as far as I can tell they are scattered around both Cygwin and the source folder. Once I identify them I ought to be able to assemble them into a package that can be archived or shared. As far as I can tell this python can be run outside of Cygwin as it is linked to a few Cygwin dlls such as Cygwin1.dll, Cygintl-8dll and Cyggcc_5-1.dll which can be included in the distribution.

I have compiled Windows XP compatible builds of psutil-5.5.1-cp38-cp38-win32.whl and psutil-5.5.1-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl which you can obtain as direct downloads. I have tested _psutil_windows.cp38-win32.pyd and _psutil_windows.pyd with Dependency Walker and there are no missing imports under XP. I have further tested them by installing them into the Python 3.8.13 supplied by cmalex and then rebuilding Loki, and everything works fine when Loki is run. To create these Windows XP compatible builds of psutil-5.5.1 I first had to delete these lines in setup.py: 111 if sys.getwindowsversion()[0] < 6: 112 msg = "this Windows version is too old (< Windows Vista); " 113 msg += "psutil 3.4.2 is the latest version which supports Windows " 114 msg += "2000, XP and 2003 server" 115 raise RuntimeError(msg) Then I added these lines after line 10 in _psutil_windows.c #define WINVER 0x0501 #define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0501 These #define statements instruct the compiler to select the Windows XP options in the code suitable for the target OS. These XP compatible builds have reduced functionality due to the functions ConvertLengthToIpv4Mask and GetIfEntry2 not being available in iphlpapi.dll version 5.1.2600.5512. GetTickCount64 has been replaced with GetTickCount. The Return NICs addresses section has reduced functionality due to the absence of ConvertLengthToIpv4Mask. The Return path's disk total and free as a Python tuple section has reduced functionality due to the absence of GetIfEntry2. The Return the number of physical CPU cores section was removed for Windows XP and VISTA after version 3.4.2 because they decided to use GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx rather than GetLogicalProcessorInformation. I tried to copy this section of code from version 3.4.2 to version 5.5.1, but naturally compilation failed with lots of undefined variables messages. It could be possible to make Windows XP compatible versions of psutil up to version 5.6.7 if you are prepared to rewrite the code in _psutil_windows.c and possibly elsewhere which I am not qualified to do.

I have successfully compiled an XP compatible version of the latest release from Github which is 0.45 and now it runs perfectly with no error messages. You can try it out by downloading loki-0.45.0-xp.7z from my 4Shared account. You will also require this limited implementation of bcrypt.dll intended for running ffmpeg under Windows XP. It supplies the BCryptGenRandom function required by yara.cp35-win32.pyd. It should be placed somewhere in your path like the System32 folder. Also the Microsoft TCP/IP version 6 network protocol is required by netaddr (I need to work on this). If you want to compile it yourself you need to install the following Python packages: colorama-0.4.6, future-0.18.3, netaddr-0.8.0, psutil-3.4.2, rfc5424-logging-handler-1.43, pywin32-300, wmi-1.5.0, yara-python-4.3.0, and pyinstaller-4.10. There is no distribution of psutil-3.4.2 for Python 3.8. so I have compiled a wheel for psutil-3.4.2 which you can download here. You will require the build of pe-sieve32.exe that does not require the function GetTickCount64 made available by cmalex here. Loki seems to work OK with psutil-3.4.2, but the yara-python developers recommend version =>5.6.7. It is possible to compile psutil-5.5.1 for Windows XP with reduced functionality, because _psutil_windows.c includes options for VISTA+ and XP depending on your operating system. These are typically shown as #if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600) // Windows Vista and above Lines of code #else // Windows XP Lines of code #endif With a Python 3.8 installation this can only be done with VC14 under VISTA+ which means that the XP only options cannot be implemented. Therefore it ought to be possible to edit _psutil_windows.c to remove the winnt>=6.0 specific code and compile an XP compatible build using VC14. Also it is necessary to delete these lines in setup.py 111 if sys.getwindowsversion()[0] < 6: 112 msg = "this Windows version is too old (< Windows Vista); " 113 msg += "psutil 3.4.2 is the latest version which supports Windows " 114 msg += "2000, XP and 2003 server" 115 raise RuntimeError(msg)

The Stackoverflow post did not provide information for fully modifying PHP 7.3 code to be compatible with Windows XP and POSReady 2009. It merely detailed a change to a single line of code needed to run it with One Core API.
