KernelEx for Win2000

It seems not to have problem.

How about do you compare kernel32 file before and after setup.exe patches to kernel32.dll with some options ?

Is installed kernel32 version 5.0.2195.7272 in system32 ?

 

Does kernel32 patching depend on any other system DLLs (or components?) Is there a way to get any logs from setup program in order to see what does it actually do?

UPD. When I install the package first time everything seem OK (FileZilla works). But if I need to change some options after that, I have to re-download the Extended Kernel (some of selections are just ignored)...

It  is correct behavior.

Setup.exe overwrite disable option, but it can not re-enabled it.

So you should prepare backuped kernel32.dll with re-install.

Extended kernel's update.cab includes kernel32.dll, so installer extracts from it  when it is reinstalled :3

Ok, I've understood. How can I repack update.cab and inject it into .exe?

Thank you! Then, here's my localized version. Could you add it to your website, please?

http://sbornik-obrazov-dlya-bochs-i-qemu.ru/pub/Windows2000-KB935839-v29iG-x86-RUS-v2a.exe

P.S. I've noticed that gdiplus.dll is not copied to system32 by default. How can I fix that?

It fixed on v3.0a.

check update.inf :3

I was being a little daring and tried to run Firefox 60 ESR. It installed after setting MSI compatibility to Windows 7, though it appears that there are several unresolved exports in kernel32.dll, as well as a few in shell32.dll. It also threw a "can't start XPCOM error".

Warning to other users: if you try this, you will break other Firefox-engine based browsers like New Moon and Basilisk.

Here is the dependency walker file. I wonder how feasible it is to get quantum to run on Windows 2000?

UPDATE: I tried to get it to hook a module with the first kernel32.dll function called (using the kernel32.dll from my Windows 10), copied over the ucrtbase.dll as well and all I can say is that it opened a new can of worms, This ain't my thing... :no:

P.S. Is it possible to make localized 3.0 version using some existing libraries from 2.9i? Could you tell me, which files were modified since 2.9i version, please?

I described at the article. :3

Can I rely on DLLs dates (are changed DLLs newer than ones from previous release)? And what about detections by antivirus software?

P.S. Why is your blog unavailable when connecting through Russian ISP?

Yes you can. Perhaps no problem now.

Really ? But I don't know that reason.

It may be related that my blog provider  has been acquired by a Korean company.

How about using proxy ?

Do I need Multi Core Limitter break patch in order to get >2 CPU support with Extended Kernel? Does provided NT Kernel include all security updates which were released for it before? Will such configuration be stable enough?

It is FAQ since Windows NT :3
