Vista already got it in March. But XP/Server2K3/Win8 (not 8.1) are getting special emergency updates. Windows Defender is getting an update as well.

Windows XP already got it if you use the POS registry trick.

My old Thinkcentre with Posready 2009 I installed it manually because it hasn't been switched on much lately. It is nice to keep any ransomware out of the network.

I wonder how many businesses are still running XP?

Plenty I am sure
