We’ve had several ‘proof of concept’ projects regarding windows embedded.  Some 
had reasonable expectations… some, well. let’s just say they didn't have 
reasonable expectations

Every customer I’ve met that had a hardware company sell them embedded devices 
was told “Oh, you don’t even need to patch these!.”

 

Grrr…

As if folks with xp embedded machines actually patch them.


 


Most dont have the disk space to apply the needed patches and have any space 
left for apps/data.

If they are running Windows XP Embedded, you have until 1/12/2016:

If they are running standard XP, I guess the countdown that we’ve been watching 
and reminding people of for the last 1000 days didn’t register J

 

Thanks,

What are you guys talking about? Did I miss some announcement about Windows XP? 
Should I be concerned that I have 40,000 ATM's running Windows XP?

So lemme get this straight…on April 8th 2014, Microsoft could release a new XP 
security update.

After the 8th, no more XP updates.

Do I have that right?

*BTW, I’ve reached out to our TAM but just haven’t heard back yet.

Yes, existing Windows XP security updates, service packs, etc. will still be 
available for download after April 8th.  You just won’t see any new updates on 
any subsequent patch Tuesday.

 

Thanks,

Right, just talking about continued availability of all previously released 
public updates.

…unless, an extended support contract is signed. New updates will still be 
developed, but only available to those with extended support agreements. And, 
even then, those patches will not be available through WSUS. Companies under 
agreement will have to get updates directly from their Microsoft support 
representative when they are available.

I *think* the confusion is around whether they will continue to make all (new 
and old) XP updates available after April also or if they will be not making 
any XP updates (new or old) available anymore at all. To my knowledge, April 
simply marks the end of *new* updates being created and made publically 
available. All historical updates will still be available via the normal update 
methods for an underdetermined amount of time (many, many years I’m sure as you 
can still get Windows 2000 updates and it’s been EOL for a long time now).

That’s the fact.

 

One last Patch Tuesday for Windows XP.

We’re kinda confused on the updates for Windows XP in April 2014.

 

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/end-support-help

 

That bulletin reads as if patches will be available for XP in April and then 
that’s it.
