How to download updates no longer accessible from the Microsoft website

If you need to download updates for an unsupported operating system such as Windows XP—for example, NLS support for Remote Desktop Client—from a direct URL, you will get the error message: “We’re sorry, this download is no longer available.”

There is a way to download it through the Windows Update Catalog, here:

https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=kb969084

Now you can download the file windowsxp-kb969084-x86-enu_153587172bf060ddc9d2c966f1eaaf4f47926f28.exe directly.

That’s all.
