Why the KB908506 updating isn't included?

https://support.microsoft.com/en-en/kb/908506

It was replaced by KB961501 (first reported by acus back in 2012).

The info is actually present in the old changelog that is not on the site right now. I still need to reformat it to match the new style and then re-add everything...

I have added a new version of the .NET Framework combined installer to the Windows2000\USP5\.NETFramework folder in the Download Archive. The filename is "20161211_NETFX101120303540.7z". This is the next-to-last version since the old versions of .NET Framework went EOL in January this year. The last step will be adding the QFE files for .NET 3.x.

OnePiece updated his .NET 3.x and 4.x addons so I have updated my package too!

You can find the newest version in the Archive. I have also renamed the folder to "dotNETFramework" as MEGA would not recognize a folder with a dot in the beginning of its name. The QFE files are still not included yet.

And just a quick reminder for those who may be confused - this combined .NET Framework installer requires the BlackWingCat's kernel (or UURollup but I would not suggest using it now) to work. The newer .NET Frameworks do not work in vanilla Windows 2000.

My website has been offline for a few days because the domain was apparently suspended

with no further explanation. :dubbio:

My guess would be that someone did not like all the non-direct links to MS updated that I had to add in the last few months (since the original URLs were no longer working). I am still unsure what to do next as the original http://windows2000.tk domain is probably lost for ever.

For the time being you can access my website under http://tomasz1986.github.io.

Thanks for the update. I was wondering what had happened to the site!

My site may not be working in the next few days. I have received an e-mail from Freenom who is responsible for the .tk domain. It just seems like a generic e-mail they send to everyone whose domain is not accessible at the moment (which is true as I removed the redirection). The important thing though is that they said they would re-check the domain again "in a few days" and cancel it if it is still not working. I do not have much hope as the status is still "suspended" but just in case I have added the redirection again so that everything is correct, at least on my side...

Let us see what happens. If there is no further information from them I will just remove the redirection again (so that the Github address will work).

If you want to view my site right now, you can always use http://wayback.archive.org/web/windows2000.tk.

Hey, I just wanted to check up on things after awhile. Sorry to hear what has happened with the .tk domain, I hope things are resolved soon. In addition, when I recently took a vacation with my old laptop with Windows 2000 plus several modifications including the UUR, it was great, a good way to get a bit away from technology while of course having it in case.

Fun fact: My school still had XP PCs until 2013 or so. Now we're all on 7.

Checking in again; is this project dead?

I am starting to wonder since it has been about a month since I checked in, and yet no replies. I'll check back again later, just hopefully I may get an answer by asking now.
