yes it does. an interim build shows that as well.

Tamris: Dude ... Lady? ... Do not express your qualms about being understood in a language that's not your native tongue. YOU'RE DOING FINE. First of all, we're dealing with a shared interest --- keeping Vista going on our PCs -- so we can all grasp the intent of someone's post here even if the words and syntax being used are not the best of formal English. Secondly, if you actually lived in an English speaking environment, surrounded by people who speak that language and none other, you'd quickly notice that most "native speakers" are not orators or authors. They wave their hands about, they say some words loudly and let others fade into silence, they throw meaningless phrases like "you know" and "I guess" and "you all" and "What about her emails" into conversations to fill up gaps, they mispronounce words that most high school graduates should be familiar with, their spoken vocabulary is small. Most English speakers are just ordinary folks, not expecting to do much with their use of the language, and -- surprise! -- not doing much with it either. Third. you're doing fine and you're surrounded by people doing fine. Nobody in this discussion thread or, as far as I've noticed, in any of the MSFN discussions I've followed, has used English here in any way whatsoever that would be noticed by ordinary Americans, Canadians, Britons, etc. YOU ARE ALL DOING FINE. Really, the only person here who needs feel some embarrassment about his impoverished language skills is me. I might get along talking to a five year old German kid or a two year old French infant, but we'd be limited to talk about liking sauerkraut and potatoes and taking naps rather than running personal computers. Let me say it again. YOU ARE ALL DOING FINE.

Good to know I'm not alone. @bigmuscle can we do anything to help fix this? I noticed it happens with Photoshop too in the Aero-preview, DWM.exe crashes for a moment.

Not Facebook. I'm glad I've never had to touch that, even if only with a 10 ft. pole. Of course, many others here will disagree.

@Roffen , I too hung on to my Windows XP for dear life, not wanting to move into uncharted territory (Windows 10). I'm 75 years old and I offer this advice....spend time googling various things you want to know about Windows 10. You'll find a great amount of information with photos, videos and other materials to help you learn. You mentioned not being able to see "Explorer" on your machine? This is the perfect opportunity to go to GOOGLE and enter "where to find explorer Windows 10" You will be presented with numerous opportunities to get right to where you want to be with diagrams, instructions and etc. . For the record, if you have your machine setup in "Desktop" mode, just go to the start button on the very bottom left of your screen (Just where you found it in Windows XP) and right click. You will be presented a dialog box and you will see "File Explorer" presented for you to left click and open the file explorer. Once that file explorer is open, you are actually on the "My PC" page which in Windows 10 is what you knew as "My Computer" in your Windows XP. You will see a folder there identified as "DOWNLOADS" with a blue arrow facing down. There is where you will find your downloads that you saved from the internet....... Hope this gives you some motivation and help?

I meant that in general I probably should put update catalog links alongside the KB numbers of updates that have been released, so that it'd be a bit easier for people, who read these posts, to find these updates, or to at least not make them copy & paste every update number into MS catalog, sometimes it's really painful. I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear the first time, sometimes it's hard to express what you mean in a language that's not your native one. (and I hope you get what I meant now lol, if still not... well, maybe I need more sleep, can't get enough of it lately).

Well, Brave already used Chrome's rendering engine earlier, so it's not like they're suddenly switching to it now. As for Firefox, we can only hope that they will resist as long as it's possible, otherwise more and more sites will only be tested under Chrome which means that PM may become more and more incompatible with various websites (obviously this doesn't have to happen but we never know, maybe MC will make his own chrome browser one day and give up on PM/Basilisk since it no longer will be worth to maintain them).

... but allow me to doubt that anything BUT a Toshiba OEM image will activate with a Toshiba OEM key : jaclaz
