@Vistapocalypse, If it counts, I have a Hyper-V VM that runs 2008 SP2, and MSE 4.10 - at the time of writing it still receives definition updates, but that might apply only to me - my local ISP has some kind of WSUS: I still can update XP/Vista without any 3rd party patches. I think that Microsoft Update servers are being redirected to ISP's network. And you are right. A trick that is necessary to install it on Server 2008 / Server 2008 R2 - I had to run an installer with "mseinstall /disableoslimit" parameter. If it is not specified, I am given "OS is not supported" screen.

The first time you listen to Windows 11, the more you hear that it requires as much as Vista at its launch times (TPM 2.0). I imagine a very slow system, a failure worse than Windows Me or 8. But the story is completely different for me, I have risked trying it. PC on which I tested Windows 11: Intel Pentium G860 Sandy Bridge 2 Cores - 3GHz 4 GB of RAM (3.5 usable) 1 TB Hard Disk WD Blue I managed to fool the installer with a patch so that the installer leaves me even in MBR. I had the hard disk partitioned in MBR. Now I will tell my pros and cons of Windows 11 Pros: -Despite the greater requirements, it is three times as fast -Windows Media Player is still alive -Animations make Windows 11 look like a smooth and polished system -The start menu is less bloated -The Paint remains the same as Windows 7 but with another icon -All old software that works on Windows 21H2 works also on 11 Cons: -Openshell does not work for those who miss the old menu -In the home edition it is mandatory to have a Microsoft account -You can only position the task bar at the bottom, and goodbye to the quick bars that accompanied us since Windows 98 :(

Thanks for the information @MrMADRYAN! So this thread’s original post is correct about MSE 4.10 functioning normally on 2008 SP2. Of course for Vista, the problem is not installation but rather the April 2017 time bomb that was included in all versions after 4.4. Were it not for that, I’m sure that definitions could be installed with the necessary SHA-2 support. Microsoft has said that definitions will be updated until 2023.

It appears the official 360 forum thread pertaining to this new 13.5 beta development cycle is located in the URI below (all in Chinese): https://bbs.360.cn/thread-15980045-1-1.html latest beta build already at 13.5.1030.0... Release Notes history posted towards the end of the initial post; below a screenshot, inline-translated into English:

I'm showing the v13.5 branch to use the same Chromium as the v13.0 branch. The modifications for the Speedup Utility are inside "en-US.pak". There are a total of six files that I made changes to that all pertain to the Speedup Utility -- 5662 --- Optimizing the memory ==>> Optimizing memory… 5663 --- Clearint the cache ==>> Cleaning cache… 5666 --- speedup percent:$1 ==>> Speedup percent: $1 [note: there is a space BEFORE the S in Speedup (this puts a gap between Speedup and the checkmark on the completed screen) and between the : and $1] 5673 --- (Can release:$1) ==>> (Can release: $1) 5674 --- (Released:$1) ==>> (Released: $1) 5685 --- more setting for speedup ==>> More settings for Speedup

Did you load SMARTDRV yourself or it was loaded by Windows? As you can see SMARTDRV uses most memory, maybe reduce the buffers a bit? Do you really need localized keyboard? You can disable KEYB and free 9KB more. About VSB.COM, is it this? Which version? You should not run it with Windows, only in pure DOS. If i remember correctly, Warcraft 2 should run fine with sound under Win9x without loading DOS sound drivers. You just have to configure it properly. Are you trying to get more memory in pure DOS, or in the DOS prompt in Windows? How fast is that system? Maybe Wargus or DOSBox (with D-Fend Reloaded) or ScummVM may be better alternatives.

I am technically doing that on administrator job. Paid well to use Windows 10

I have created an Extended Kernel (BWC) English to French Translation Package for Windows 2000. Conditions for operation of this package: 1 / The installed Windows 2000 version must be English, not French. 2 / This package must be installed from Part1.bat ,then the computer must be restarted, then install Part2.bat. 3 / If you are not serious about getting the translation, do not install the .bat files, because it will directly translate the Windows files. How was the translation done? What are the main files that need to be translated? And how? 1 / The Resource Hacker program was used to replace the STRING TABLE, DIALOG, and BITMAP for some files, Including : ( Shell32.dll, Explorer.exe, Browselc.dll, Winlogon.exe, Msgina.dll ... ) Example in winlogon.exe change : (STRINGTABLE LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US { 1680, "Running logoff scripts ..." 1681, "Running logon scripts ..." 1682, "Loading your personal settings ..." 1683, "Closing network connections ..." 1684, "Windows is shutting down ..." 1685, "Preparing to Standby ..." 1686, "Preparing to Hibernate ..." 1687, "Saving your settings ..." 1688, "Preparing to Standby in order to complete eject ..." 1689, "The Active Directory is rebuilding indices. Please wait ..." 1690, "Windows is starting up ..." } To STRINGTABLE LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US { 1680, "Ex \ xE9cution des scripts de d \ xE9connexion ..." 1681, "Ex \ xE9cution des scripts de connexion ..." 1682, "Chargement de vos param \ xE8tres personnels ..." 1683, "Fermeture des connexions r \ xE9seau ..." 1684, "Windows est en cours de fermeture ..." 1685, "Pr \ xE9paration \ xE0 la mise en veille ..." 1686, "Pr \ xE9paration \ xE0 la mise en veille prolong \ xE9e ..." 1687, "Enregistrement de vos param \ xE8tres ..." 1688, "Pr \ xE9paration de la mise en veille en vue de l '\ xE9jection ..." 1689, "Active Directory reconstruit les indices. Veuillez patienter ..." 1690, "Windows est en cours de d \ xE9marrage ..." } ) The English language should not be changed in the head. 2/ There are old files that BLACKWINGCAT did not support, you can change it by replacing the English .DLL file with the French .DLL file ,then add the names of these files in UPDATE.INF . Msgina.dll contains Windows launch bitmaps which should be changed to French graphic. Translation package (28/01/2021) link : https://mega.nz/file/9w0yDBaT#MaDG6oJf-5f9b6QZjjamKyajGeC0n-xpO5U6B7GH8jk You can follow and change the extended kernel English language to any other language.
