Windows Embedded QFE's (updates)

Since the change to Silverlight/Bing on Microsoft downloads, the download search has become completely useless (for fun, try searching for "CE 6.0", then try "CE") [Update: MS seems to have fixed the search phrase problems, so "CE" and "CE 6.0" now return the correct results. Nevertheless; the remainder of this blog post is still valid]. Therefore the links in this post do not work anymore and an update is needed.

All Windows Embedded Compact 7 / Windows Embedded CE 6.0 / Windows Embedded CE 5.0 / Windows CE.NET 4.2 / Windows CE 3.0 (you can leave it to MS marketing to make product naming as confusing as possible...) updates can be found at these links:

Windows Embedded Compact 7
Windows Embedded CE 6.0
Windows Embedded CE 5.0
Windows CE .NET 4.2
Windows CE 3.0

You can still download the QFEInstaller so you don't have to click the QFE installation wizard a million times, but nowadays the msi installers support silent installation through commandline options as well. The QFEInstaller is still handy because it makes sure the QFE's are installed in the right order.
