Internet Explorer will pass anything into it as an option without the use of a switch. So in the Run box you can test to see if it works:
iexplore "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Spades\default.html"
it opens in ie but freezes. plus its not boxed its just a complete ie window.

no luck. the "default.html" at the moment is at "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Spades". the .bat file works great that a friend made for me but it uses chrome to open it.just wanted to know if one could be made to use ie.

but all i need is the "default.html" to open in [ie/explorer] . it's a game that uses the .html file to open. how will the above work for this? Thanks

@echo off

Thanks for the links. I havent been able to find them either. The Vietnam/Malaysia/Egypt/Africa/Indonesia Wallpapers from the Windows XP Starter Editions. One would think of all the boards I've posted this on that someone from those area's would know of them I was hoping.

I'm running a registered MBAM 3.5.1.2522 (thus with real-time scanning) and the old MSE 4.4.304.0 with the 1.293.2807.0, which seem to me to be a tight enough security, at this point. And I've just added @Ben Markson's cosmetic fix, just to keep the icon green, for the sake of my tired eyes...
how do you add @Ben Markson's cosmetic fix? i've tried to change the value in regedit in normal and safe mode but it won't let me

does anyone here have access to or live in Vietnam or Malaysia?i'm looking for the wallpapers and screensaver images from these xp starter editions.they would be in the "STARTOC.CAB" folder located on the install cd at "CMPNENTS/STARTER/1386/STARTOC.CAB". or they might be on the 2nd cd that came sometimes with these xp starter editions. the only reason i'm asking is that i've seen them for sale on various sites on google but i live in the usa and getting them here is next to impossible. there is some of them from the argentina 2nd cd posted on betaarchive and the cds on archive.org. would be great if someone could get the cd's and rip and post them there.mainly just looking for the walls ect... thanks in advance

It took over three years, but I've done it!
It works on Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit (created a quick VM to test it)
I've copied Windows 98SE files and made registry keys and folders as shown in the screenshot. (the .htm file was made while making the screenshot. Just like on real 98 system, it disappears shortly after launching the Easter Egg)
The window will glitch out at first, but just move mouse around inside of it and then move it out of the sight and back again to redraw everything and voila!
All the buttons run their expected programs, except the Connect to the Internet button which does nothing.
The weldata Easter Egg works as well!
The tickbox for running at every startup does work correctly.
No compatibility settings required.
On my main PC running Windows 10 Pro 1803 the app closes after the window glitches. Bummer
The weldata Easter Egg still works there.
Main thing is that WELCOME.EXE has a hardcoded path to Applications Data folder, so it will not look anywhere else. And it will differ in WELCOME.EXE from other locales.
Anyway you could share the files or the instructions with list of files needed? also the reg file. would this work also for the windows me welcome?

i'm having a issue with the revolutions pack 9.
i installed it on windows me in microsoft virtual machine and all is fine,so i got out one of my old computers and installed windows me along with all the requirments to install revolutions pack 9 and on the taskbar when you open up say my computer/my docs or anything else the button on the taskbar shows the pink at the bottom of the button and its only at the bottom (wierd huh).
i've tried every theme i have on it and its the same with all of them.
someone said it could be my video card / drivers (ati radeon 9200 series) but i'm out of ideals and i've even uninstalled the revolutions pack and reinstalled it but the pink is still there and only at the bottom of the tab/ button.
if anyone has any ideals on what i can try / do please let me know. (the video drivers are the ones from the ati site).
thanks in advance

is there anyway to get the theme manager that comes with windows me to remember to load the theme i choose?it will remember the icons/cusors/wall ect... and even the sysmetrics of the lameskin but will not load the lameskin bitmaps and just reverts back to classic with the sysmetrics of the lameskin.
if there is no way for this maybe someone could make one or fix the one from microsoft to work.
it would be nice to be able to load a complete theme without having to reapply the skin for each.
thanks for your time and hopfully a reply to this.
The theme manager that you see in win98/Me is only the selection part of the complete package. If you haven't installed it already, you need to install the "Win98/ME Plus" package. Once installed that will allow you to create and save your own themes and styles. Otherwise it just allows you to select themes that you have installed - ie created by others (or direct from Micro$soft), downloaded & installed on your system. In windows ME they only included part of the program... so grab the Win98/Me Plus package and it should solve your problems.

is there anyway to have the "RPConfig.exe" show the cursors and sound schemes also? or maybe save a theme complete with skin/wall/icons/cursors and sounds?
it would be nice to have these added along with maybe a wallpaperchanger that can be saved with each theme then it would be alot like the one in windows 7 with all options.
just my thoughts.

Ok now I understand what you mean - the only thing I know for that is "Desktop architect" ! But heavy on ressources !
Roger
tried that also,does'nt work.
if anyone knows anything on how to fix this it would be great.
98 or me should be the same as the theme manager is the same pretty much in both.
thanks in advance

Hi cephead,
I have no clue (and I am a computer layman), but just to be sure: did you try to save the scheme by rightclicking on desktop + properties + appearance + save (giving the scheme a name and then save) ?
Roger
there is no tab for saving a theme in windows 98/me like there is in xp.
here is a pic with the theme i saved applied and the desktop properties and theme manager open so maybe you can see what i mean.
i get nothing but classic colors and there not even the same,the colors in the theme manager are correct and the system properties are not.
thanks for any help on this.

You refer to LameSkin. This was replaced by UberSkin, and then by Revolutions Pack 9:
http://www.msfn.org/board/revolutions-pack-9-t131040.html
I suggest removing LameSkin, and then installing Revolutions Pack 9.
i am using uberskin.
it also does not work with Revolutions Pack 9,it does the same thing.
so if anyone has any ideas please post.
thanks.
