Where can I get the Windows XP Support Tools?
The Windows XP Resource Kit Tools are a set of
software tools for administrators, developers, and power users to manage
Active Directory, Group Policy, TCP/IP Networks, Registry, Security,
Scalability and many other areas of the Windows XP operating
system.
Note: I recommend using the Windows
Server 2003 Support Tools instead, as they
are newer than the XP ones and include a few new
tools.
The Windows Support Tools for
Windows XP can be installed only on a computer
that is running the Windows XP operating system.
The Windows Support Tools for Windows XP cannot
be used to upgrade Microsoft Windows NT or
Microsoft Windows 2000 Support Tools installed
on Windows NT or Windows 2000.
Since Windows XP SP2 came out,
a newer version of the Support Tools is
available for download, see link below.
The following Support Tools
have been updated in Service Pack 2:
- bitsadmin.exe
- extract.exe
- httpcfg.exe
- iadstools.dll
- ipseccmd.exe
- netdom.exe
- replmon.exe
Note: The
original XP Reskit tools are available on the XP installation CD
in the \support\tools directory.
Supported Operating Systems:
- Windows Server 2003, Windows XP
- Windows XP 2600
- Windows XP SP1 and SP2
- Windows Server 2003 family (3790)
Plus, 30 MB of free disk space are needed for the
installation.
