January 1, 20233 yr Yeah, but I've seen screenshots of the service working again and videos like thoses:
January 1, 20233 yr Author You can do the same process as V5 for DNS, but replace the V5 files by the v3 one and replace V5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com by windowsupdate.microsoft.com
January 1, 20233 yr Okay, is there a simple method, a tutorial or some indications to do it ? (I'm not very good at modifying operating systems) If not, I think I will continue to use the W98 auto patcher and wait until something a bit more finished came out.
January 2, 20233 yr Author Just continue using the Auto Patcher, because with the Windows Update website you will only get 4/5 updates...

January 9, 20233 yr Author Hello Windows Updaters, here are some news. THE NEWS WIndows Update v3: The Windows Update v3 website is still experiencing issues, and we're working to solve them. However, there's an url : http://windowsupdate.overrender.com/R1201/v31site/default.htm (the website is still work in progress). We also discovered the Windows Update Catalog v3 (for update from Windows 95 to Windows 2000 Service Pack 2). WIndows Update v4: Windows Update v4 is missing the results.asp page. Without this page, you simply can't install updates. The Windows Update Catalog is not working at all. If any of you find the good results.asp, send me a private message and I'll try it. This would save us a long time of coding the page. WIndows Update v5: Windows Update v5 is now available in 22 languages, all included in the same folder (v5consumer). Once the pictures will be done, the Windows Update v5 pack will be released. If anyone wants to help us with translating the pages in any other languages (like Japanese, Chinese), send me a private message or join the Discord server. Any of you can help us. Don't worry, this project is not for 3 people only! If you have updates stored on your computer for old Microsoft Operating Systems, you can also offer them. All is accepted !

Credits: Thanks to all the members of this project, especially @WinFX! Very good!!!!! Finally some good news. Can't wait to see completed v3.1!!! Still, the big problems with v4 website are still not solved. The second most important WU website, after v6, imo. I'm gonna check if that v3.1 website is working on my W98 VM! Welp, for some reason, it redirects me to the 404 error, so i can't see it in the moment. Edited January 9, 20233 yr by Dušan Vićić

January 16, 20233 yr Author Thank you very much! We're trying our best to restore these old Websitese. Spolier : Windows Update v3 will be available soon...

January 20, 20233 yr Author Please stay polite (which means -> No WTF). And yes, the site is work in progress. But for the time being, you'll have to host it yourself. @WinFX is working to create a public VM with all websites running (some config will be needed). Don't think it'll be easy, setting up these websites is not that simple.
January 23, 20233 yr Were there any updates for windows nt 3.1/3.5/3.51 or 3x? Edited January 23, 20233 yr by shelby
