@xyz123, most of those are for xp sp1, ive only added two of them to the latest release - the new version of synctoy, and the stop error hotfix.

You're probably right, since I only listed what I found and didn't have time to check it - so I only excluded the ones I was positive they had been included in AP or SP2. Sorry, thanks anyway.

There is a new high priority update...

I don't know how much will it be useful, but here it is... :unsure:

Windows Genuine Advantage Notification (KB905474)

Download size: 829 KB , 2 minutes

The Windows Genuine Advantage Notification tool notifies you if your copy of Windows is not genuine. If your system is found to be a non-genuine, the tool will help you obtain a licensed copy of Windows.

P. S. KB900485 is released as official update, so if it hadn't already been included in AP it would be included in May release. Just for the record, if anyone is interested. :)

Update for Windows XP (KB900485)

As I said in my last post, this update is already included in AP (Apr 2006), but it hasn't been official until now. Check TheBlazingAngel's post from Apr 16. ;)

But it could be the new version. :whistle:

Just a quick note about KB905474.

If you use detailed status messages on logon, you'll see that there is no "wInlogon.dll" anymore, now there's "WGAlogon.dll" (After you install KB905474.). :wacko:

I have no idea if this has any influence on anything, since I use legal Windows XP. :p

i,

I believe that the Flash 8 player has already been upgraded to version 8.0.24.0 in last months release.

If this is the case then there are no new updates from the May bulletin which affect APXP.

There are a few other updates which have been listed in this thread and elsewhere which could be included in APXP however it doesn't seem to be enough to warrent a full version release this month.

If the plans are to include KB905474 (WGA Notification) then KB892130 (WGA) is still required to access online downloads and Windows / Microsoft Update.

I have prototype modules for KB892130, KB905474 and Windows Update v6 if anyone want's them for testing and I am working on a module for Microsoft Update.

Regards

Simon

What do you think by "there are no new updates"? What about KB913580? KB913433 's got something to do with Flash player, not KB913580. :huh: Maybe you misunderstood what I said, KB913580 is the part of May bulletin, I mentioned it separately because that 's the only update that affects Win(XP), i. e. AP(XP).

Speaking of software components for WU/MU/WU&MU, they should, they must be included in AP! :yes:

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads. The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are available in four colors, and all five are now available at the lowest price: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones (2nd Gen) - $379 | 16% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Save 44% on Intuit QuickBooks Desktop Pro Plus 2024 (1 User for 1-Year)

      By fingletmein · Posted

      Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Figure 8 Dash · Posted

      Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
