Windows 7 is generally still fine to use if, and only if, you use an updated browser (ex. Edge). There are ways to get extended service patches up to 2022 though, but it takes a bit of effort to do so. Antivirus + up to date browser + common sense is a valid substitute (for now). I still use Windows 7 daily on my Latitude E6410 for school, though I have 2FA turned on with all accounts on that laptop, and I don't login to accounts that I don't have 2FA for.

I would really love to keep using XP, but with 3rd party software makers no longer making their updated software compatible with XP, I am forced to upgrade. I went to Windows 7 after a new game could not run on XP. Firefox and Chrome stopped their updates, meaning that more recent web sites might have issues displaying properly. Many more software no longer run on XP, which limits the usefulness of the OS.

That's a great point about disconnecting from the internet for extra security. Disabling Autorun can also help prevent malware from automatically running from external drives.

Nice video! I wonder if disabling the internet access but retaining the LAN is a more secure way than worrying about AV & firewall robustness. I guess it all comes down to what you want to use the machine for. In my case I'd want to use it as a time capsule; so with all the old unpatched productivity software and games of that period. That way a LAN where I can access shares but nothing else might be the most secure way and still allow me to easily pull files from the web. One thing you didn't mention is if imaging the drive (with something like Macrium) is possible? That would be worth doing.

If you airgap the network correctly, there's no harm in leaving it plugged in. I'd even go as far as to make sure none of the other nodes connect to the internet at all, or if they can - make damn sure they're secure. Disabling internet connectivity within the OS will do precisely nothing to mitigate the abundance of security holes that exist within the operating system itself. The only real way to keep it safe is to make sure that whatever network it touches doesn't go anywhere near the internet. Firewalled or otherwise.

XP security is not particularly a problem for experienced users. The BIG problem (you didn't mention) is almost all new software now tests for operating system type and immediately comes up with "wrong windows version" if you try to install it on XP, even if the software will work fine. A system hack is required to change the XP to windows 7 in the test so software will install. This still can present problems with software that actually will fail under XP.

When a site delivers content via SSL3 / TLSv1.0 (for compatibility to unmodified XP) a message appears saying "insecure".
@supergamingyt7280 Жыл бұрын
Very bad idea to use it as your main. Simply installing programs and using modern registry hacks doesn't make it any more secure than the modern Windows. If XP was secure by simply installing programs and tweaking things, Microsoft wouldn't keep making new versions of Windows and publish updates.

I think that sometimes nostalgia clouds our judgement, and that is the case with XP. I used it for many years, and although I love the simplicity of the UI, it was also a security disaster from day 1. And let's not forget that some sites simply won't work with XP nowadays; I know, I've tried it. XP was a decent o/s for it's time, but it's time to bid it a fond farewell.

DEP is a really problematic feature for me. Even after excluding them, there still are applications that don't behave the same way as when DEP is at it's default setting. Edit: I just remembered that there is this weird Chinese browser called "Extreme Chrome 360" or "Extreme Explorer 360" that's apparently based on Chromium 78 of something and that's it natively runs on XP and Vista. Given that it's Chinese, it's most definitely spying on you, but there is a Russian repack of it that claims to have gotten rid of the data collection, it's on the last software compatible with Vista list on MSFN.

WIndows XP is light as a Linux.. I love to have it but they don't support directx 10,11,12. Windows 10 is so buggy and slow even on a high end machine. While Linux(Ubuntu,Manjaro,Pop! OS) is just as good as the Windows XP, Software support are not there yet as they are no Adobe and Microsoft Office are compatible with Linux and alot of game have to be converted using WIne and out of 70 steam games I owned, 15 of them are Linux Native.

We used XP until Chrome could no longer access web sites. So in 2022 we upgraded our 2008 Dell Computers adding 2g of ram so we had 4g to work with. Loaded Windows 10 and it's been running perfectly. My all time favorites are Windows 98 - XP - 7 - and now 10 all have been excellent performers. I am using Windows 11 at home and that works really well too.
@adventuresinnostalgia5 ай бұрын
That's interesting! Upgrading to Windows 10 sounds like it gave your 2008 Dells a new lease on life. Did you find it easy to upgrade the RAM and install the new OS yourself?
@bobsloan6945 ай бұрын
@@adventuresinnostalgia Yes was pretty easy. We had to find Ram Cards that worked with our mother board. In our case we had two slots and I think is was DDM4 type ram. So we could only find max out at 2 Gigs per card giving us 4 gigs of ram. The windows 10 operating system requires a minimum of 2 gigs so that allowed a the rest to run our programs. Right now we are sitting at about 75% memory usage doing regular work. We have been going along fine since then but when the time comes for windows 11 we will need new hardware as the units are maxed out and 11 requires a different chip operation.

Don't keep any antivirus installed on xp as they always run and just extra drag on the cpu and slows down the computer.Instead periodically install it and run it to look for virus and when it finishes the search,delete virus or if no virus,just close it and uninstall it.What people really need is pc cleaner because just youtube puts about 2-300 mb of trackers on every computer,EVERY DAY and if don't regularly get rid of them,they accumulate into gigabites and you won't know why your pc is so slow.

Easier said than done. However since the source for xp has been leaked and verified to compile. We may have other opportunities that were not avaliable in the past. As a thought that might appeal to some retro fans might be to create a sort of windows 98 from the xp source including elements from another open source microsoft research project called singlarity which has elements very similar to the qubes os this could mitigate rhe need of some of the direcrion xp took in the final product idea while making an inherently more secure os. Just an idea tho.. Where the nature of having the source codes to the original ideas may produce something completely different but what the original ideas should have been to start with.

I am using XP for some ancient software I can't live without. My solution is to never go on the Internet and have XP on a virtual machine installed. All new software is downloaded and virus checked by the hosting operating system. This method has several benefits. I can use it on any system and can hop it over to another system without changes. A compromised system can be recovered. I don't need a firewall or an antivirus. I can work on two systems on the same hardware in the same moment. I can use Outlook Express, if I really need to, by using a special network connection on a Linux firewall, which allows only email traffic. I can continue to use old software without the back-draws of compatibility or license issues. On modern computers there is no speed loss compared to the original XP hardware systems.

I know machine for tools that have Windows XP or Windows 7. Windows starts first, then the CNC system is started and takes over full screen. Fortunately, Windows runs in a restricted user account, Windows settings are not saved. Programs cannot be installed. To change something you have to call the service. An update to a newer operating system is not possible for the user. If something goes wrong, service has to come. Then the hard drive is formatted or replaced. Then a new image is copied. Then you start again from the beginning, but the CNC files (text files) are gone.
