PAE doesnt work with many hardware configurations as lots of drivers are not optimized for it. It can cause USB issues in some configurations among other things.
The PAE patch included takes a while to install. Install it at your own risk. Note: I do not recommend using Windows XP on a network facing machine.
Even with all these updates, windows xp is still much more insecure than a modern OS. There seems to be some false positives picked up by windows defender. If you do not trust this file, follow the guide I linked above to make your own.
Remember you must carry it out on a windows xp machine or vm. Reviewer: R3n - favorite - January 3, Subject: Does not install. Other than that this version is legit in that it has many updates but I wouldn't trust it for anything else than running programs offline. It is dangerous!!! I downloaded the file on 26 Feb. After that, someone from the USA logged into my amazon account.
That Service Pack would be enormous to download. AND you want it to work of course, updating all the changes made over the last 12 years. And I am sure you would want it possible to give options for skipping updates that one might want to not use.
Of course. And naturally it has to be free because all the other patches were free. Do you have ANY idea whatsoever the effort it would take to produce such a thing? You can't just jam all the files into a single zip and away you go. This project would be a gargantuan undertaking! And they should do this all in the name of making it easy for the people who still insisted on using an antiquated OS? They would be fielding thousands of user support tickets to deal with issues created with this monster you are proposing.
Which would generate tens of thousands of man hours to take care of the problems. Tens of thousands of man hours is easily millions of dollars in wages that need to be paid. So Microsoft should spend millions of dollars on an OS that has gone End of Life to "make life simpler" for people that should have upgraded 3 years ago? I don't call the refusal to do that "arrogant".
I call it common business sense. People have been predicting the downfall of Microsoft almost from the day it started. I wonder when they will realize it hasn't happened yet. Autopatcher seems to have managed to do exactly what you are describing Because they don't want to.
There is no money in it. And we do live in the age of broadband. File size is not as big a deal as it used to be. Not to the user anyway. Only to the person serving the file having to deal with the demand. But I think Microsoft can afford the bandwidth. And if serving the file is an issue, at least offer the discs. They could even ask for shipping charges. I would gladly pay the shipping charges and perhaps even a nominal fee to receive a SP4 disc. I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way.
You are ignoring the fact that each month Microsoft is distributing security updates ISOs. Zounds of gigabytes each and every year. It's not a question of space. It's a question of money.
