Harkaz, does your recent release include any updates for the dotNET's? Wondering if "abbodi86 AIO dotNet update installer" is still applicable!

Yes, all .NET Framework updates are included in the update pack.

UPDATE [June 7, 2019]: Post-SP4 Update Pack released! This final update pack should be applied to Windows XP installation media immediately after slipstreaming SP4 v3.1b to a Windows XP RTM/SP1/SP2/SP3 source. This will update installation media to May 2019, including every single update released u...

Currently I have no plans/free time for a post-SP4 update pack. Firefox 52 ESR support will end in June 2018 and then it will be game over for XP (without a compatibility pack to install the latest versions of Firefox).

@Lex24 .NET Framework 3.5 auto-installation can be easily disabled.

SP4 users can always download the latest updates via Windows Update after installing SP4 on their system. This update is out there since March.

Hello I'm new to the forum so hope this query is in the right place.

Open the Task Manager and check for the spupdsvc.exe process.

@ GH0st Even if I had enough free time to work on a Chromium project, I would only port security patches, not new features, New features would most likely require deep changes in the Windows API.

Done.

harkaz

OEM should work just fine as long as you have the product key or if the CD came with your computer (SLP).

harkaz

@ ZBoard Try reinstalling SP4. Remember that this is not a 'proper' installation scenario (only intended for testing!)

The search companion error shows that there might be more unresolved issues with your install, making a reinstall/clean install necessary.

harkaz

@Zboard Can you send me a screenshot? Office 2007 is not pre-installed, only one of its components required for Web folders update.

Use PM if not comfortable posting the image here.

harkaz

Nobody will buy that right now, since it is disclosed. If they'd like to use it and the vendor does not patch it they are free to go. Besides that, white and gray markets are not interested in dos 'exploits' (particularly one that requires admin privileges). From a security perspective, it is only u...

This is an interesting find I reported to MSRC. It can have a security impact and can be used in local attacks. It requires administrative privileges for system-wide impact and, for this reason, MSRC does not consider this to be a valid security vulnerability . Nevertheless, it would be useful to kn...

Uninstallation of the entire .NET Framework 3.5 is not possible via Add/Remove Programs even without the reg file. The Add/Remove Components Wizard should be used instead. The reg file will however prevent uninstall of any future .NET 3.5 updates (which may continue to be available if M$ ever change...

harkaz

This reg file will hide all .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 references in the Add/Remove Programs section. This also means that any future updates for .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 will not be uninstallable. .NET Framework 4.0 is hidden and shows all the installed updates properly when the 'Show updates' op...

It's not designed for nLite "native" (non-SVCPACK) CD-ROM slipstreaming, unless you use a patched sxs.dll. Also ypu need to slipstream this in a SP4 disk, which has the required CA root certificate pre-installed. The certificate can be added to a non-SP4 ISO with this reg file: https://drive.google....

harkaz

Try: EXPAND \I386\sfc_os.dl_ C:\WINDOWS\System32\sfc_os.dll

to see if there is any difference.

harkaz

Is the file in System32 folder?

harkaz

@vioplujjnsjzfg What's the error message, exactly?
Post MD5 hash of sfc_os.dll
The reg file is used to make the CAT file trusted. NOT required in SP4 - it's bundled in it already.

harkaz

NOTE: This update package requires SP4 to be installed.

If you have problems with update.inf cat file install the reg file in this zip beforehand: (removed permanently)
Also, it's not designed for nLite "native" (non-SVCPACK) CD-ROM slipstreaming

harkaz

That's useful only if you plan to modify gdiplus or VC runtime files on your system. You see, with side-by-side assemblies you have to use MS catalogs otherwise the public key token won't be correct during assembly installation. The sx2.dll is a patched sxs.dll that is called by the package installe...

@maxtorix This should be done on SP3 machines as well. It is a .NET Framework 4.0 issue, not a bug in SP4.

I have documented it since .NET FW 4.0 is part of XP SP4.

harkaz

Added a note about the latest .NET Framework 4.0 update in the first post: IMPORTANT: There is an issue with post-sp4 .NET FW 4.0 updates I would like to report, which is not caused by the SP4 itself . (This also applied to legacy version 2.0). Scenario: Install SP4 -> Enable .NET Framework 4.0-> Ru...

harkaz

It is way easier. You'll need however to be careful with the main catalog file. Installing a custom CAT file signed by you may cause problems. (In SP4, the sp4.cat file is a renamed sp3.cat file and all the new signing is done by sp4cmp.cat, which is installed separately). So this requires some tes...

harkaz

@maxtorix No wonder that even Microsoft did not bother to update the WinFLP ISO.

harkaz

WinFLP: I know the existence of seperate installer, but this requires a seperate build process. Different OS components (less files need to be included) and one has to be very strict with system requirements. This would essentially mean a new mini-SP4 with only the essential files/registry settings ...

@maxtorix I've integrated SP4 into K/KN/N with no problems.
