Msaa and Euro symbol on W95b

Featured Replies

Hello you all!

You may know (but are perfectly allowed to ignore) that w95euro.exe, which installs on W95 half a dozen fonts with the Euro symbol (€, you know), refuses to install if Msaa is already there. So the standard answer is to put w95euro.exe first, and Msaardk.exe later.

By the way, some may be as happy as I am to find OffTTUpd.exe by googling

"OffTTUpd.exe" site:microsoft.com

as this one adds more fonts with the euro symbol, provided w95euro.exe is already there. For W95-98-Nt3.51-Nt4.

For people who had put Msaardk.exe first and can't use w95euro.exe then, a solution is there

http://erpman1.tripod.com/win95upd.html

which tells to replace post-Msaa User.exe User32.dll Gdi.exe Gdi32.dll by their original W95 versions, use w95euro.exe and OffTTUpd.exe, and paste the post-Msaa versions back.

I guess one obtains the same situation as if installing w95euro.exe first and Msaa then.

BUT

After having used erpman1's trick, I see a few things that don't really work, and that should explain why the w95euro.exe installer refuses to coexist with Msaa...

- On W95's Charmap, the Euro symbol is absent, except for the MS Sans font, which is not a Truetype one;

- On WordPad, same gag as Charmap, which is less negligible;

- On Metapad (a Notepad replacement), the Euro symbol exists for any font added by the patches.

To be clear: txt files don't specify a font, but Metapad allows the user to choose the font used to display texts.

- On Internet Explorer, same as on Metapad.

SO

Has someone seen other malfunctions when w95euro.exe and Msaardk.exe coexist on W95? Something more troubling than Charmap and WordPad? Like MsWord, printers...

Thank you!
