Fine if it works for you but it seems like a
clunky solution to me. You're basically making
your system read-only to avoid malware. Why
not just be more careful?

That is such an astoundingly ignorant answer it doesn't deserve a
response.

I've been running XP for 14 years without an infection. No
resident AV (I do an overnight monthly scan with Kaspersky's Rescue
Disk, just in case). No time freeze.
Simple safe hex and you're safe.
I agree with Mayayana on that.
Only fools get infected.

You're a special kind of tech dumbass aren't you. XP corp edition
doesn't do activation. It can still be installed and used.
Depending on whether or not he's got a true oem or a marked oem
or a retail or Corp decides if there is any ms required
activation.
Please stop giving unsound advice. You sound like snit when you go
and do that, dumbass.
Also there's still 32bit versions of av and am available with
updates. Stop writing from your ass, you fucking
moron.

I have two multi-seat licenses for XP, one a ‘business’ and one an ‘education’. Both still work to reinstall from the DVD or the ISO.
As I Said Before
You Can Installed
But You Can't Update It
My versions were SP3, the ISOs were patched to the latest patches before MS dropped support. I don’t need to update them.

That depends. You could still get fully patched XP installs from Imagine (formerly Dreamspark); MS parks every single OS from DOS 6 there, for educational purposes. That’s all versions of DOS from 3, Win 1-3.x, Win 9x, ME, NT 3.51, 4, 5, XP, Vista, 8.x, 10, Server 2k, 2k3, all the way to 2019 (no 2022 as of the last time I looked), plus various versions of Exchange Server, SQL Server, more. They’re official installs from MS, license keys and all, and they still install. Even DOS 6, assuming you can find floppies to drop it on, and a computer which can run it. The last machine I have which has a working floppy drive is a beige G3 Mac; I dumped the images for DOS 6 to the Mac and built floppies... a long time ago. Haven’t found a machine which will install DOS 6, though. Too old.
Of course, you have to get access to Imagine, which ain’t simple.
