I think not. WUv5 is independent of v6. Sometimes it is displayed:

Are those actually current updates? Or are they static? Like if you are on Windows XP, does it display Windows 2000 updates?

Here the list is not displayed, but you can see how many updates are available. I think that they are Xp updates. The updates that are shown in W2k are current.

Is it the real current updates? Does the updates displayed in Vista? Are the updates static? I really want to see it in Vista!

Windows Update v6 doesn't work with Windows 98, so client.asmx won't work with Windows 98

Hello,

The website is fully working with CSS! 

But @maile3241 and me have a problem: to use the website, we need to replace 2 files each time we use the website ! To stop that, we need query strings.

 

Anyone have an idea of how to use query strings in IIS? 

Thanks by advance !

Hi @Dave-H do you still have a windows update log from windows update v4? (before 2004) It would be nice if you could share it.

Many greetings

I just want v5 work in Vista because the WUApp is very slow...

Then you do not have any other solution than Windows Update Mini-Tool or the Windows Update app.

Sad, I only can use the WUApp instead the site (but it's fine)

If it works, that's fine. You can check for updates.
