• Born, Brinkmann: Microsoft’s hotfix service is no longer available

    Posted on November 5, 2018 at 04:13 CST by • Comment in the Forums

    I’d have a hard time extrapolating to all hotfixes in all situations, but Martin Brinkmann has hit upon a very disturbing trend:

    System administrators and users who attempt to download hotfixes from Microsoft’s website are greeted with a “This hotfix is no longer available message”.

    Günter Born’s Borncity web site has a German language post that, in addition to hotfixes, also decries the imminent death of FixIts.

    I’m not sure what’s going on, but this certainly isn’t good news for Windows 7 users.

    More info as it becomes available.
