Updating Windows Vista in 2023 (including ESU updates)

In this video we're going to install every single update that there is available for Windows Vista, taking it from RTM build 6000 released in November 2006 to the latest August 2023 ESU update.
Also, I'm going to show you how to prepare the system for getting ESU updates. This means fixing all the issues that prevent Windows Update to work on older versions of Windows.
For more information on how to get ESU updates, check out forums.mydigit...
In total, almost 400 updates have been installed, plus 2 Service Packs.
Thanks for watching!

Can you just provide the link to the entire pack?

[@therealjammit]

It's a work in progress.

@@therealjammit i have a client which specifically requested vista on his laptop but i can't set up vista to work smoothly, this would help a lot

[@therealjammit]

@@Aemyl_ Unfortunately there's not an easy way of doing this. I do have an idea that might help. Once you get it installed, updated, and working make a clone of it in case you have to reinstall it later. Or just have the clone available to do a quick and easy install on a new machine. I really don't like Microsoft doing this, where they completely drop their old operating systems. I would really like the option to install an old OS on a machine and just update it. I've run into a few instances with milling machines that have something like Windows 98 installed. These machines cost over $300,000 and when a hard drive dies you're totally boned. I can install Windows 98 (or whatever) on them and install the necessary motor driver software and CAM package but I'll need the updates. Microsoft still has all the updates (even for Windows 3.11 and DOS) but they're spread out all over their website and not easy to get (I still wish they had an FTP server). Once I get those machines up and running I make a clone of them so I can easily set them up again later if I have to. I really have no idea why they just don't have a "download all files in this directory for all of Windows 98 updates" option or even a backwards compatible Internet Explorer update. I don't need it to be supported, just updated with the latest available.

Would it be possible to compile all these updates into a single iso file or recompile from source code?

How do you get Vista to work with Aero in VMware?

VMware tools

@@Skazzy3YT You are probably trying to install the newest version. You need to use an older version. I use 11.0.6 and it works great

@@Pyry300 what I'm running into is I install the last supported VMware tools but I'm using the latest version of workstation. I can switch Aero on but the performance isn't great and after a few minutes it will automatically switch back to the basic theme
