The June 2009 Security Updates Are Now Available on the ECE

**Updated at 5:47pm, 7/1/09: Correction-The June updates included both the componentized updates for applying to the database, as well as the updates in the \DQI folders that can be applied to runtimes.

  • The downloads in the WindowsEmbeddedStandard\Windows folder are only to be used with the Component Database within the Target Designer toolkit in the Windows Embedded Standard release.
  • The downloads in the WindowsXPEmbedded\Windows folder are only to be used with the Component Database within the Target Designer toolkit in the Windows XP Embedded release.

The June 2009 Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded Standard Security Updates - Product Download is now available on the ECE for Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 (Std 2009) and/or Microsoft® Windows® XP Embedded (XPe) with Service Pack 2, Feature Pack 2007, Update Rollup 1.0 and Service Pack 3.

This download is a cumulative update which incorporates all updates from prior months. Therefore you do not need to download and install previous monthly updates. These updates can be applied directly to runtimes that include the necessary dependencies.

The Updates in this rollup package are arranged in the following way:
