Support to our dead Windows XP

Intended for: all kind of users

Windows XP maybe will be the best accepted and extended Microsoft's operating system. It's simplicity, easyness and good work if you look to its parents (we all remember the disgusting Millenium Edition...) make XP OS for several guvernamental institutions and for home users a reference for others.

A recent issue that made bleed its home users is that Microsoft announce officially the past 8 if April of 2014 that they won't bring no longer support for it, that means  that from that moment, all XP users are "totally abandoned". The decision is understandable: it's first release was in 25 October of 2001, 13 years ago... and Microsoft brings it's best to support this: it's time to update.

Companies still receiving support (of course, paid), and there's a version of Windows XP that stills having support. That updates are meant to be compatible with the rest of Windows XP versions so... There are people that discovered how to still having support. The source of this is a webpage that I'm a good fan of it NeoTeo (article for trick in Spanish).

Based on my knowledge of it, here you can download a .reg file that is intended to update this value of the Windows Registry and still receiving support for your old Windows XP without advanced knoledges: Windows XP support period extender.

As always, be aware of:

• The fix is totally for free and you can't pay or be paid for it
• You can put it on any web site always if you don't forget to put the source of the information (this blog and post) and you don't change the content inside the .reg file inside my web.
• You're using this under YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY
• I am free of all responsibility for any problem that you would have using it: no viruses, no errors of it's application, no human errors, NOTHING!
• It's possible that Microsoft changes this in some way, or any of that updates hurts your PC: I'm not responsible of this too.

If you're not agree with the previous, please don't download it and don't use it. To be clear: is not my problem. I bring you this like a gift, my work and my effort and I bring it to you "AS IS". Of course, I will do my best to make my applications free of fails, but we all know that computing science have lots of historical failures that make loose millions of dollars to big companies: obviously a free app can have fails too. If you see error and want to report them, please comment right here.

To use it is enough that you download it to your PC and make double click over the file. It will ask you if you want to add to registry the new entries, click over Yes and restart your PC. With that must be enough to receive again automatic updates.

I hope it will be helpfull for you too!
