Additional Information.

You can check install with following command line.

 

reg QUERY "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{EF289A85-8E57-408d-BE47-73B55609861A}" /v version

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{EF289A85-8E57-408d-BE47-73B55609861A}
    version    REG_SZ    44,0,2195,0

 

If  it returns "44,0,2195,0" , it was installed in your machine.

thanks for that , the latest update solved my issues trying to install the needed updates for your excellent KernelEX

I couldn't get these root certificates to install in Win98. I used regedit to look for the folder in HKLM...\Installed Components\ but couldn't find it:  The command line that blackwingcat recommended didn't work. 

I tried to set KernelEx to Win2K compatibility before running, but this didn't work either.

I simply ran the .exe file.  Is there more to it?

I try to install 2017 root certificates update on Windows 95.

the advpack.dll is Win98 and later only, so I delete it. and install inf.

I can find registry. It is installed on Windows 95.

Perhaps Win98 has no problem.

Thank you BlackWingCat

When I run the update on Win2K, I see the progress line (extracting) then a few seconds later a message that update was successful

When I run the update on Win98, I see the progress line, then nothing.   Also I notice the original advpack.dll was replaced by a 2013 version

I guess I can export certificates from the Win2K registry, then import them to the Win98 registry if I knew exactly where they were
