KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)

**Dave-H** · April 20, 2017

Opera 12.02 is the last version that works on Windows 98SE, even with KernelEx.

**xrayer** · April 21, 2017

Hi, after some longer time I tried to update KernelEx 4.5.2015.3 by Drugwash with latest version 4.5.2016.16 from here (1st post) and found that some apps, e.g. TCPview 2.54 stopped working - now showing MSVCRT error. I isolated that this issue happen after KEXBASES.DLL file was updated so I keep older version and it seems to work without problems. Did I missed something else that needs to be updated from other package than files in KernelEx2016.16.7z archive?

Between 2015.3 and 2016.16 some of the core architecture in kernelex.dll has changed. It's nice to hear that kexbases.3 still works with kernelex.16, but in some ways functionality will be less than 4.5.2 final as some extensions have been moved back and forth between kexbases.dll and kexbasen.dll.

I found TCPView 2.54 and it works with no problems with kexbases.17. It should also work with *.16. Use a process viewer that reports loaded module usage to check against my test run:

It turns out the version of SetDllDirectoryA/W in the master branch was only a rough start by Xeno86 to a partial implementation.

Hi Jumper, after adding the dll's from the latest ReactOS (.5) it looks like as if there is now some progress possible with SeaMonkey higher than 2.09.1 !! Before that the exe just crashed but now it asks for SetDllDirectoryW.
Is there maybe a new version coming soon ?? Thanks for all your hard work.

Update: I had forgotten that I had deactivated SetDllDirectoryW in that test system. After activating&reboot the seamonkey.exe now stops and mentiones GetProcessIoCounters which is present in kexbases.

if any of you implement lots of api from reactos in kernelex then pretty much everything will work .

**jumper** · May 24, 2017

@MiKl: What SeaMonkey version did you test? Try SM 2.32 (Gecko 29) or KM 74_31 (Gecko 31).

@Dibya: ReactOS is an NT clone. Win9x lacks the NT core, so most of ReactOS will not port as-is. The easy stuff was ported years ago. If ReactOS itself could run "pretty much everything" we would all be using it instead of Windows.

From your log, I see you need to disable KernelEx extensions on these five files: MSVCRT20.DLL OLE32.DLL OLEAUT32.DLL OLEDLG.DLL UNICOWS.DLL

**filth** · June 6, 2017

Ok.
Here is result:
Kmeleon stops with same message.
In log I see that now it fails to LoadLibraryExW(bfa4fb6a), but what is bfa4fb6a I can't understand.

Use compatibility mode= WinXP on K-meleon.exe and disable KernelEx on Msvcrt.dll.

Edit:
> In log I see that now it fails to LoadLibraryExW(bfa4fb6a), but what is bfa4fb6a I can't understand.
bfa4fb6a is the memory address of LoadLibraryExW in the loaded image of Kexbases.dll.

Edited June 11, 2017 by jumper

**filth** · June 9, 2017

No result (fails on same LoadLibraryExW).
(New log in attach)
+disabling Kex on unicows.dll cause a problem: no visible cursor line on Opera 10+
