EXE installer for WGA


Super-Magician

Recommended Posts

I found an EXE installer for the Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool (KB892130). It can be downloaded here.

URL: http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3-19990518/cabpool/windowsxp-kb892130-enu-x86_7e1189ce89fb0c693cad6432a4c2f982dcea49a0.exe

Is it compatible with HFSLIP? Inside, it looks just like any other hotfix. Plus, if people include this instead of that CAB file, we can remove some lines in the script :).

Why don't I try comparing the DLL in the two files? There is no other version of LegitCheckControl.cab, AFAIK.

Edit: Comparison using FSUM complete. Two DLLs are identical. See reports.

Regarding the INF file - The language displayed for WGA does not depend on the DLL/installer/INF. What might Setup mess with if the INF file was installed on a non-English system?

Thanks for the feedback, EmRoD! :D One odd thing about the naming of this hotfix is that "ENU" and "x86" are reversed compared to other MS hotfixes for XP :lol:.

Anyone here ready for MS Patch Tuesday tomorrow :thumbup?
