EXACTLY! Because: 1. Some kids aren't educated because of their parents. 2. I can confirm that this is true because at school they have a very liberal bias (I thought any political bias in teaching was supposed to stay outside of school?), and I live in a VERY liberal city so this is expected lol. 3. Yep, society has changed a lot throughout the decades.

Yep

Well, with the release of Windows 11 22H2 (or 2022 Update) in September and this month's Patch Tuesday update, it has improved in terms of features (ex: tabbed file explorer) and stuff. It still hasn't reached the stability of 10 or 7, but if you want to use a good stable version of Windows, then sure, use 7/8/8.1/10. But then again, my computer, my choice, so it's up to you.

First rant: why are people SO stupid nowadays? I see it on social media and in real life, and I know there was a time (in the past, sadly) when people weren't that stupid. But I think the most stupidest people are the people in my age group (13-19), jesus this world is gonna go upside down if they somehow take office in politics or something... (but of course not all of them are stupid)

Well they already spy us with our smartphones, and with social media (good examples are Facebook and TikTok).

The oldest OS I've used as a semi-daily driver in these modern times was Windows 2000 (with Extended Kernel)... in 2017. Now the oldest OS that I use alongside with my main PC is Windows 7 (with ESU).

Sweet, now I'm even more interested in trying it lol

Also, has anyone tried Legacy Update because I wanna know if it offers updates for Office (like it did with Microsoft Update) because I'm not home rn. And btw Legacy Update looks interesting and I'll try it out when I get home.

You're welcome! And yes it absolutely sucks.

Get well soon! Me and my family got COVID during the summer and it SUCKED.

Oh cool, I should make a Windows 2000 VM and try it when I get home. Also, does it have Office updates or is it just Windows updates only?

Does anyone know if Office 2010 causes Windows Update to take forever to check for updates in Vista? (Because I know this happens in XP)

And I BET Microsoft hired interns to make Windows 11 and other crappy products, wtf happened to Microsoft for the past 7 years or so?

Windows 11 is literally Windows 10 21H2 with a major reskin (and with bugs included too). I know that Microsoft is improving 11 with updates but it still kinda sucks and I'm currently on Windows 11, I plan on going back to Windows 10 soon. The message is clear, Microsoft no longer releases stable and good products anymore (last one was Windows 7 imo).

Okay so I installed all of the POSReady 2009 updates on an old laptop of mine and now when I install certain software it gives me an error that it couldn't install because the windows installer something couldn't be accessed, and I'm guessing that a POSReady update did something to the windows installer.

Oh, I'll read the guide again, thank you though

By putting the cursor over the file and it shows the file version along with the name and stuff, but doesn't both the unpatched and patched file show the same version?

Nope

Okay so I just did that then I restarted and I'm still getting the error

Alright thanks, I'll try that

I made an XP VM and I swear I followed all the steps and I'm currently getting 0x80244004 on WU, I don't what went wrong...

Hi, does anyone know how to make WU work on Windows 2000 again.

Do I install the XP updates first and then install the POSReady updates? I read that you need to install the XP updates first (until its final set of updates released in 2014 obviously) and then you go ahead and install the POSReady updates since some POSReady updates require some XP updates to be installed.

I guess I'll just uninstall Office 2010 and install Office 2007, who knows how long MU is gonna stay there and check for updates.

Oh, is there a solution for the Office 2010 MU thing? If not I'll just uninstall Office 2010 and install Office 2007 then (but I want that to be my last resort). Thanks
