july 16 will be the end of windows xp update website?

It ain't over til its over ... looks like it's over.
Like when our parents told us there was no Santa Claus you like to hold on to the fiction a little bit longer.

 

and do you have sp3 installed?

 

I just tried to run it and could not get it to run either,

 

Yes I have SP3, unfortunately microsoft has permanently closed the site for updates.
The only thing that can be done by microsoft is to upload in an iso all the updates that were released until May 2014, when the support expired.

 

microsoft update catalog is still open, you would have to download each individual update. I am fortunate that I have a cache of all the updates,

 

I installed the updates with this tool "WSUS Offline Update 9.2.1", downloaded the updates to the client folder and went through them one by one, then downloaded the wanacry update. The bad thing is that while it has an option to create an ISO for automatic offline installation, at the end of the process it always makes an error and does not create it. I hope Microsoft releases an official ISO with all the updates.

 

Finally the updates were installed automatically with this tool "Windows MiniTool" . So you do not need manual updates one by one. Windows XP Forever!!!

Windows update for XP works again!
I got the yellow shield!

Ιnstalled 19 updates

 

yes works for me too!! i think it was just a server fault, i just tried to open it and boom!

 

Windows xp continues to receive updates. Both yesterday and today the yellow shield appeared again!

 

from the update site or from using the mini-tool program

 

they should be the old updates, check the update history and see in the details the release date i dont think ms is gonna update xp anymore sadly

 

was done automatically, from the yellow shield, on the site does not check for updates [Error number: 0x80072EFD], were installed during the shutdown of the pc. Yes they are old updates. Until recently, however, it did not install and we had to go through them with the mini tool.

 

that error should mean update servers busy
btw i get a different error probably i would need to reset my winupdate but it installed fine the normal updates automatically

 

So theLINK shows an error. What's going on with Windows xp updates and is it FIXED?
