Hi XPE developers. This is Ted. On May 18, 2004, MS annouced the Dekstop QFE Installer of XP Embedded QFE, Q824706. This update enables XP Embedded runtime image to update with XP Pro QFE package directly, so you can easily keep your runtime image up-to-date against security concern. you can download it after logon to Microsoft Embedded OEM web site. After install it to your developmemt platform (where the XPE component database was installed) by simply run the QFE archive (Q824706_xpe_sp2_x86_enu.exe), you must add "Desktop QFE Install - Q824706" component manually to adapt to your configuration. There are some restrictions as below: 1. only for XP Pro QFEs released after May 10, 2004 2. only for XP Pro QFEs with Security issues 3. not for updating via Windows Update site As you know, you can download XP Pro Security QFEs from MS Security Bulletine Thank you. - DST.SE Ted, Dr.Packet PS. uploaded the newer XPE QFE List included this issue in Databank.
