ctrl-alt-rees | Updating Windows The Old Fashioned Way - In 2024 @ctrlaltrees | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
I'm currently trying to grow my channel! I'd really appreciate a subscribe if you're enjoying my content. π
In July 2006, Microsoft discontinued support for Windows 98, 98SE, and ME. In 2011, they switched off the Windows Update service for those operating systems completely.
So what if I told you that all this - and a lot more - is back thanks to a community effort?
Windows Update Restored (and similar service LegacyUpdate for XP) fully integrates into these old versions of Windows just like the good old days. So lets update Windows like it's 1999!
Well, 2006, I guess...
