I stumbled across this accidentally, quite interesting. I did not know that Microsoft software source code was leaked. Personally, I am not interested in doing anything with it as a for many years 100% Linux user but, I put it here as an interesting artifact of software history. Apparently it was leaked on 4chan, no surprise there.

*** * 2020-09-24 This is an update to the previous torrent (2020-09-20), made for the sole reason of including the file ‘nt5src.7z’, which contains Windows XP / Windows Server 2003 source code. Those who have already downloaded the previous torrent, fear not! This torrent is 99% identical, with the only changes being to the files ‘torrent description.txt’, ‘md5.db’, and the inclusion of this text file and ‘nt5src.7z’. You don’t have to re-download the other files. Just remove the old torrent from your torrent client (without deleting the data), rename the directory from ‘Microsoft leaked source code archive_2020-09-20’ to ‘Microsoft leaked source code archive_2020-09-24’. Add the new torrent to your torrent client and force it to do a re-hash / re-check of the files, if it doesn’t do it automatically.
The leak happened on 4chan, and although the file name is the same this file is slightly smaller. This is because my file only has one level of compression, while the original file had CAB files inside the 7zip file. The only change I made was to extract the CABs, and then compress the extracted files with 7zip. Because, fuck CABs. It’s all there. Enjoy
