Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP

Post by qazmko1029 »

I have Plus! for XP(although I don't know if it's the original ISO),and I installed it.Actually it works fine.I don't know whether it's in our FTP or not.
Here is my installation:

I'm sorry that I cannot upload it even if it doesn't in FTP because of my slow netspeed(20kb/s highest for upload).

Plus! for WIndows XP is still considered warez so we don't accept any links or files to it. Requesting it is also out of the question.

I've been informed that Plus! for XP is indeed abandonware as it's a separate product and not part of the general XP package. All warnings concerning this has been removed and an apology issued to the member that got a warning for sharing it. I am truly sorry for this, shows that I have to do all research myself now before issuing warnings.

Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP (released Oct 2001) can be shared according to the abandonware guideline, this also includes the Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition (released Jan 2003) but not the Microsoft Plus! SuperPack for Windows XP (released October 2004) as this is not yet abandonware!

It will be a good day when Windows XP stuff finally makes it into the FTP server.

Microsoft Plus is awesome, I remember I had it pre-installed on my old Windows 98 computer. Too bad they Microsoft scrapped it. I loved the XP Plus! since it had these awesome games!

I love old operating systems.

It's sad indeed. I know so many people who still use XP, even now and have no intention of upgrading. Dangerous.
