    Could somebody here do a test and try to download KB2908802 from the Win8.1 category? Either x86 or x64.

    We just want to see if others may be having issues with the new server. Thanks.

    What a shame, it surely has gone forever as it redirects to 255.255.255.255 on purpose.

    If I knew they were shutting down the HF download service I'd have grabbed every single file in the server.

    From what I have learned looking at the search results, even directory browsing was allowed, so mirroring the server would be a piece of cake.

    Just can't believe it. :weeping:

    Yes, it is a shame. But inevitable with the push towards Win10.

    I think everybody would've been downloading the files if MS had publicly announced they were ending it on a specific date. That's probably why they did it quietly- to catch people off-guard and make it harder to find those old hotfixes.

    Sorry abbodi, gitlab urls are failing from WHDownloader (even setting URLTimeout to 20000), but they work from browser, as already reported by others.

    Yes, but it's standalone update for PCIClearStaleCache.exe tool
    it's easier to run online instead whole Rollup

    for offline integration, PCIClearStaleCache.exe is not needed

    I intentionally didn't add those, as WMF 4.0 is good enough i suppose :)

    i still didn't decide how to handle WithoutKB3125574 hotfixes/updates, whether to remove them or try to replace links
    i'll add these two for now
