I loved my windows XP Professional 64 bit operating system when I had it. I did not have any problems from it all.

I only upgraded to windows 7 Pro 64 bit out of necessity.

It also works very well.. Easy to use and not confusing looking atthe start menu or my desktop.

My 15 inch laptop has windows 10 on it. I canuse it but it imo is not as straightfoward as the Windows 7 pro.

SO, as you can see, I am not a fan of changing technologies or porgrams when what you have is perfect for oneself.

I do have install disks for all these systems.

LAter!

Windows XP Offline Activation Enabled With This New Tool

A recent blog post by TinyApps highlights the arrival of an offline tool that can successfully activate a Windows XP install. The new tool is safer than prior solutions, it isn't a crack and it works completely offline. It doesn't require online connectivity (a risky area for Win XP machines to tread), which is a considerable bonus.

Windows XP was introduced in October 2001,

And, Fiz,
I suspect this article links to the same place your article came from. But this article appears to be more 'in English' than techno-geek.

If, after the above, you aren't sure why you might want to run Windows XP in 2023 or any time in the future, a few suggestions are provided below:

Using a system tool, app or game that was never upgraded to be compatible with a currently supported Windows OS,

Using old hardware that isn't supported by a current platform and / or modern Windows OS,
Indulging in some older hardware / software research,
To address curiosity, nostalgia, or just for fun.

And, I have an XP machine that I still use - once a week. It is running XP on hardware said to be for Windows 7. I use it to run an old copy of Microsoft Office which has Microsoft Access so I can run a database I designed and built to keep track of my stock portfolio.
