jimmsta Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Just wondering what's going on since last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBill Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 I've been sitting on the update so I could test it thoroughly, but I just posted KB2479629. It combines KB2479628 and KB2393802, rendering them obsolete. It also adds some new stuff: ntoskrnl/ntkrnlpa/ntkrnlmp/ntkrpamp.exe The fix for the NTQueryInformationProcess bug that blackwingcat found. setupapi.dll Added SetupUninstallOEMInfW user32.dll Added true implementations for the following (for mouse and keyboard support only, not other USB devices) DefRawInputProcGetRawInputBufferGetRawInputDataGetRawInputDeviceInfoAGetRawInputDeviceInfoWGetRawInputDeviceListGetRegisteredRawInputDevicesRegisterRawInputDevices win32k.sys Kernel-side implementation of the raw-input API that user32.dll invokes (where the real work is). wtsapi32.dll Added stubs for WTSRegisterSessionNotification and WTSUnRegisterSessionNotification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBill Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 New update: KB2508429 v16 (apparently I never uploaded v15, oh well...). There are three new functions for advapi32 since v14: RegSaveKeyExARegSaveKeyExWEnumerateTraceGuids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBill Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 It's been a long while since I mentioned it, but I've quietly been working on a total rewrite of kernel32.dll in C. It took forever, but I've finally squashed enough of the bugs such that it's booting in a VM without exhibiting any errors. Once I synchronize it with the current kernel32.dll in my patches, I'll be releasing a new version of the rewrite with full source. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacLover Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 There seems to be a bug in KB2479629: When I attempt to install it on a "fresh" Windows 2000 system (Windows 2000 SP4+UR1, no unofficial patches installed), the installer will say that KB2479628 is not installed. From looking at update.inf, it seems like the old WIN32K.SYS version check from MS11-011/KB2393802 was left in the INF. Removing the check from the INF fixed the installer and everything is working. Thanks again for the patches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately health issues intervened and I'm currently recovering from gall bladder surgery. When I get back on my feet so to speak I'll try to remember to look at the rest of those.

WildBill Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 Thanks! I'm almost fully recovered; I had a bout of anemia a couple weeks ago, and I've been cooking steaks every night to try to get my numbers back up. I'll be seeing the doc tomorrow, but I anticipate that I should be back to work on Monday. I've started looking at the requested routines, and it looks like I only need to add CreateActCtxW (as the patch versions I have here already contain the other routines). That one will be tricky because I've found that putting in stub versions causes some applications to act wonky (because they expect them to actually work). I once took a stab ad making fully functional versions of the activation context API (which MS calls the Fusion API), but it's far from trivial. Still, taking another look never hurts.

discdude Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Unfortunately, I have been unable to download Windows2000-KB2479629-v3-x86-ENU.exe. MediaFire says "The file you attempted to download was determined to be dangerous. For your protection, MediaFire does not enable distribution of dangerous files."

MediaFire says "The file you attempted to download was determined to be dangerous. For your protection, MediaFire does not enable distribution of dangerous files." That's just bizarre. I scanned it on my end with Avast and it's clean, so I deleted it from MediaFire and I'm re-uploading it. I'll update the link once it completes. Hmm. It still thinks it's infected, so I rebuilt the .exe and I'm reposting it. For some reason the new one is different from the original. I have no idea why.

dencorso Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 zip, rar or 7z it with a password, and MediaFire'll stop meddling. If I may suggest a general password for such cases, "False8positivE" is a good one. BTW, how many false positives does it get from Virus Total?
