![]() I just reject it now every time they try to sneak it in as a critical update. I would imagine you won't be able to avoid the MS Genuine Advantage Notification BS with SP3 either. The new version of the clean-up software introduces the new Health Check feature officially and is the last major version that is compatible with the Windows XP and Windows Vista operating systems. I will probably wait until I need to redo Windows before installing SP3 I don't see any reason to install it if you are up to date with SP2. Piriform, which is an Avast-owned company, has released CCleaner 5.64 Stable on March 3, 2020. ![]() When SP2 came out it had a bunch of new features so it made sense to put it in. Does SP3 just over wright the updates you already have? Unless It has some new feature or security improvements whats the point? It makes sense if you have to reinstall XP SP2 than instead of going to Windows Updates and downloading the 42 million updates that have been released it would be easier to install SP3. So if like me you are running SP2 and keep it fully updated what will Service Pack 3 do for you? I mean you already have all the updates if you are keeping XP updated. OK so Service Pack 3 will include all the updates that have been released since Service Pack 2. Of course a lot of bugfixes since SP2, I mean 2848 files are renewed, I have no wireless in the VM but I assume WPA2 support is now included and High Def Audio devices are detected without need of a hotfix. All I noticed was that Remote Desktop Client was updated to 6.1 and that IE6 said SP3 in aboput screen. Lucky harddisk space is not an issue these days.Īfter installing I noticed nothing new visually yet in the Bootscreen or UI. ![]() When installing is replaces and backs up 2,848 files (456 MB) to C:\WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$Īs before it also archives the SP3 itself in C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386 So there we have the reserved KB article number. The SP3 executable pack is named windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe. After that I installed Windows XP Service Pack 3 Beta build 3180. I did a clean install of Windows XP Professional (English, 32bit, Volume License) with Service Pack 2 integrated in a Virtual Machine.
