Get Security Updates for Windows 8.1 until 2026!

UPDATE: This doesn't work anymore. Someone at Micro$oft must have seen this video and changed it so that you can't install these updates anymore. :(
A few months ago, I made a video detailing my process as to how I was able to get security updates for Windows 7 until late 2024. Ever since then, I have been getting asked if it is possible on Windows 8.1 or not. I thought it wasn't possible, until now. This video walks through the entire process of getting these updates on Windows 8.1.
