Windows 2000 Sp4 Update Rollup 2 And Full Version 2017
Does anyone know if Microsoft releases a final service-pack or rollup when it finally pulls the plug on a version of Windows (or for that matter, Visual Studio or Office)? For example, currently, if you install XP with SP3, there are still plenty (100+) of critical updates listed in Windows Update. When Microsoft discontinues releasing updates for XP altogether, will they release SP4 or some other rollup that includes all of these updates so that a user can download it, then install the OS and apply the last update (without needing to go online), and be fully updated such that Windows Update indicates no updates available? I recall that the last service-pack for NT was 6.0a, but does that mean that installing 6.0a and going to Windows Update shows that there’s nothing left to update? If so, will they do the same thing for XP; if not, how is a user supposed to be completely up-to-date without going to Windows Update? No, they haven't done it to this point.

They just stop releasing updates for the OS. Existing updates, however, are usually still available in Windows Update. I recently did a reinstall of Win98 into a VM so I could use an old app that wouldn't run in XP or Win7. I was still able to install all of the previously existing service packs via Windows Update (once I had downloaded a newer version of IE manually that is). If new exploits are found, they are not patched. So if you are interested in continuing to use an older OS, you do so at your own risk and I would recommend running it in a VM that doesn't have an internet connection.
I recently installed XP SP3 in a VM (XPMode is the same) and there were dozens of updates available (in fact, the more updates I installed, the more became available). This amounted to hundreds of megabytes that needed to be downloaded and installed. Needless to say, it was incredibly frustrating, especially when there was a problem and I had to delete the VM and start over. George harrison all things must pass full album torrent.
:-( Once extended support ends, they really should pack the remaining updates into a final service pack as a final bit of support. – May 11 '12 at 18:27.
I encourage you all to use and take advantage of the Internet Archive (WayBack Machine) to download Microsoft software. The IA is a 501©(3) non profit organization in the United States, and has been archiving the web since 1996. It became officially recognized as a library by the State of California in 2007.

Pretty sure someone figured out a method of getting the non-EN files as well (on MSFN?). Speaking from my experience, it is actually very difficult to find working links for non-EN updates. Especially when it comes to less used languages you have to spend a lot of time in Google and even then in some cases the links are simply not indexed at all Now we still can download some update files from windows catalog site, also in other languages. I recommend that we download available files before microsoft deletes them.

I agree that is a great resource; my concern is that using direct Microsoft links will fail in the future. This is why it is so important to utilize the WayBack Machine when pointing people to unsupported software; people accessing these threads in the future will at some point be unable to access these downloads with the Microsoft links.
