Hack Windows XP to get Security Updates until 2019 _______________ _______________ _______________ _________ Microsoft ended its support for Windows XP officially more than a month ago on April 8, 2014. While some companies and organizations who were not able to migrate their operating system’s running Windows XP to another operating system before the support phase ended, are still receiving updates by paying Microsoft for the security patches and updates. You are not allowed to directly install these Windows updates for your OS. In order to download new security updates for your Windows XP, you just need to perform a simple intervention into the Windows registration database. STEPS TO FOLLOW: --------------- --------- >Open Notepad and create a new file. >Add Below given code to it: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MAC HINE\SYSTEM \WPA \PosReady] Installed=dwo rd:00000001 >Save file as .reg extension and run it by double clicks. >Once executed, you will find lots of pending updates in your Windows Action Center. Because the extended support for Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 systems ends after 5 years, Microsoft will continue to deliver new security updates and patches for this version of its embedded operating system till April 9th, 2019, so users can use this trick to get security updates of Windows XP for another five years. Important Note for our Readers - Despite receiving security updates for Windows XP by using such tricks, it is not possible to secure the complete system appropriately. So we highly recommend all of you to upgrade your operating system to the latest versions, i.e. Windows 7 or 8 or any Linux Distro. Like & Share Tested Computer Tricks
