[How does Windows 7 search work?]

just to add to sillyness of MS

(this will look like advertising but is not , I always intend to recommend better soft that I know of)

example of UltraSearch app, its free, but my main point is that it reads directly from $MFT, no indexing, no nothing

one has to wonder why MS never did such thing, after all they were the ones that wanted instant search with Longhorn

and then reverted to slow indexing again...

also, sorry if this was not replies you wanted

[How does Windows 7 search work?]

just use alternatives

Everything

UltraSearch

...

whatever

they are all fast

MS ones are slow, resource hungry and quite stupid

[broken installations]

I'm trying to slim down PDC build 6801

but whenever I try, install is always broken on this point with this message:

now, I don't care what will work when OS is installed, I just want it slimmed to be installed

this is my session, if someone can see it (its not big at all), and tell me what is so **** sensitive there

(had to use pastebin, attachment not working for me)

[how to create a fully managed windows xp]

thats bollocks

they use "sample proof" image of Flight simulator for which has already been proved

gizillion times it was fake

closest thing to DX 10 on XP you will come if you find compatible DirectX 9L for Longhorn that is actualy

compatible with srv2003 which I even doubt it can be

[Repair mode]

do you know if it resets only HKLM or some others too ?

[Repair mode]

you missed the whole point of my question

[Repair mode]

my question goes for Repair option when booted from CD

except clearing whole Windows directory and putting original files back to it

what else does it do ?

[Question about .NET framework]

The .NET Framework 4 does not automatically use its version of the common language runtime to run applications that are built with earlier versions of the .NET Framework

so this means that user actualy needs full bloat of 2, 3, 3.5 and 4 afterall ?

[setting propper associations fails in T-13]

hehe believe it or not I did some sniffing and found that exact answer here on MSFN

()

btw quotes are necessary around %'s, ive noticed on PDF file it doesn't load in PDF viewer without them

still thanks for answer, apreciate it

[setting propper associations fails in T-13]

I get same result with just %1 and with %1 %*

(no quotes on both cases)

[setting propper associations fails in T-13]

for some reason when used unattended installation with $OEM$ batch file for T-13 time

setting propper file associations fail

simple example:

for irfanview to open GIF file

ASSOC .GIF=GIF.FILE
FTYPE GIF.FILE="%PROGRAMFILES%\IrfanView\i_view32.exe" "%1"

or PDF Xchange to open PDF's

ASSOC .PDF=PDF.File
FTYPE PDF.File="%PROGRAMFILES%\PDFXChange\PDFXCView.exe" "%1"

if I do it manualy (type it in cmd window) it will work

but why doesn't it do right with T-13 batch file ?

i noticed in output window that "%1" doesn't get applied

but just "" is added which I guess screws things up

anyone know how to fix this things ?

[Windows 7 ultimate 1.33Gb iso]

remove winsxs and you have FUBAR OS

[What PDF reader do u use?]

PDF XChange gets my vote

[Visual C redists]

i've noticed that 2005 has some... issues...

MS offers 3 versions to download

redist 2005

redist 2005 SP1

and redist 2005 SP1 update

but they seem to clash? with each other, the newer removes older

while in 2008 case, both 2008 and SP1 co-exists

bit odd

[Visual C redists]

I'd like to add to my nlited installation Visual C++ redist's

is it enough to just add 2005 SP1 and 2008 SP1

or ALL 2005, 2005 SP1, 2005 SP1 ATL security update, 2008, 2008 SP1 ?

[Question about .NET framework]

some people say that 1.1 and 4 are enough since supposedly 4 covers CLR2

this true or all 1,2,3,4 are a must ?

[Why this Diehard Win2K user finally switched to WinXP]

has anoyne tried using ReactOS lately ?

I personaly hate where vista and anything above went

seeing only XP/srv2003 being last good OS-es come from MS

I consider jump to ReactOS when XP's loses its support and by then I hope they will release the "everyday use" version

[Constant high CPU usage]

it could be some malware

if your scanners can't find anything my recomendation would be repair (not format) of OS

then again thats only my opinion

usualy explorer.exe takes high resource if something of 3rd party

is hooked to it and using it

[how to "register" .net]

problem is I can't regshot since .net I wish to "give" to XP

would be from Longhorn build 3718

and I think its early .net version differs from final ones

[how to "register" .net]

and copying just folders won't do anything at all ?

I mean, sometime when an app requires dll and user downloads it and puts it into same

folder it will work...

[how to "register" .net]

bare with me in this situation

if i didn't install .net (1.1 or 2, no matter), but just copied folders from \Windows\ directory

(assembly, Microsoft.NET and WinSxS) from another installed XP that had .net installed

what needs to be done, to "register" that components so windows can see them and use them ?

and do i need to export/import some reg entries ?

[How to change this (Please Wait) screen?]

could be ntkrnlpa.exe as its identical to boot screen
