It seems that Microsoft has stopped the Hotfix service for the functional of the Windows system.
So system administrators and users trying to download hotfixes will see message "This hotfix is no longer available."
The message reads:
The hotfix service is no longer available. You can find the patch or update code, upgrading to the latest update available for your product.

Microsoft has had past repairs to address critical issues from specific page.
Emergency fixes existed as separate downloads, which made it easier for system administrators to correct some issues on their devices.
Microsoft did not make any announcement about the closure of the service, but the reasons given above are obvious.
