Such a luck that the "Vulnerability in Windows Explorer Could Allow Remote Code Execution (908531)" Update hasn't been released yet otherwise maybe we would have to cope with the same crap like on Windows XP.

[me2]

Hey aah!
How long do we need to wait till a newer release is available?

Wupg98 has been re-updated!

The changes:


DirectDraw 3D settings added (registry tweak)
hhupd (1.4)
rootsupd ver. 8,0,2195,0
very much patched *g*

BTW this should be the most stable version cause most work was finding program flaws
this time.

As there are no new Microsoft updates anymore has someone any ideas for
patches ,hotfixes (hopefully not to large ones) that could be added in a newer version?

If an unofficial ms06-015 patch can be made it will be consider to add that one.

Which language is your Windows 98 OS and which language of the wupg98(english or german) did you try to install?
If you installed the german pack over an english 98 OS or vice versa this can happen. You should install the same language as your OS has.

So to the conflict I would like to know if you had first installed the KUP or the WUPG?

WUPG98 installs the kernel32.dll 4.10.2224 and makes a backup (in the recover folder)of the kernel32.dll that was on the system before.
KUP I think renames the old kernel file?
So there are when I think about it 2 options what could have happened.
Please tell if it was one of these 2 cases:

a.) You installed WUPG and KUP ,then uninstalled WUPG so the new functions of KUP got lost becaus the original kernel32.dll was restored after the uninstallation.

b.) You installed firtst KUP then WUPG and maybe the kernel32.dll was replaced by WUPG(that hasn't got the extra functions). Althought this seems unlogical cause the update installer checks if already newer files exist.

Hi,

i am searching for an update pack for Win98 FE (GERMAN).

I am not sure, if ur Pack will work with the FE-Version. Does it?

Thanks & Danke,
Bjoern

[winxpi]

I never had the chance to install it on Win 98 FE by my self( since MY only testing pc with 98 SE on it for testing was accidently destroyed because the contact of the bios battery socket broke down on my trying to reset bios by taking out and inserting the battery again *embarrassing*).
Maybe somebody else could report how the results are.
But I suggest it should work since most updates only should install if the properly OS version is used.
