November 20, 200421 yr the AlwaysUnloadDll Registry Trick works wonders for windows 98 se,not very good under 2000 or xp thoughSupported operating systems: Windows 95, OSR 2.x, 98, 98 SE, ME. Applies also to Windows NT 4.0, 2000 and XP, but only for 32-bit DLLs.Open a notepad and enter the following code:REGEDIT4[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\AlwaysUnloadDll]@="1"File --> Save As... --> DLLTweak.regDouble click and say Yes to apply. It's that simple.
November 21, 200421 yr but what i meant was i've tried it under 2000 n xp it actualy slows it down,under win 9x or me it works wonders
November 22, 200421 yr Hey all,I have an opinion for version 2 of this service packThere is a Windows Installer 3.0 RedistributableCan you put it in version 2 FINAL of the Service Pack ?
November 22, 200421 yr Author ...Windows Installer 3.0...Windows Installer 3.0 does not support Windows 9x/ME.
November 23, 200421 yr I have another question ...You know that in Windows XP, when you go to System Properties you have there written information about processor type, processor's clock frequency and the amount of RAM installed on the computer ...But in Windows 98 you don't have the processor's clock frequency displayed there. So my question is: is there any way to make that happen' in Windows 98 too, through this service pack ?10x Gape for the previous answer!
November 23, 200421 yr 2 Gape 'bout infex.exehow about to make short description frame (or like a frame) for each selected item in add/remove list? Of course all "descriptions" have been described in infex.ini in special section...
November 23, 200421 yr Author 2 Gape 'bout infex.exehow about to make short description frame (or like a frame) for each selected item in add/remove list? Of course all "descriptions" have been described in infex.ini in special section...egorz,Good idea, but I think it's not necessary for 2.0. I can do it for 2.1. I'm very close to finish 2.0, so I'm working on only missing features and testing now.Workaround: Write the option name in a long format. For example, we can write "Adaptec ASPI Drivers Update (Version 4.60.1021)" instead of "ASPI Update".
November 24, 200421 yr Author Only patching process and uninstallation are missing now. Perhaps, if Tarun finds a better way for recreating of VMM32.VXD, I'll add it , too.I hope I'll release RC (Release Candidate) in this weekend. If RC works good, I hope FINAL will released in 1 December.
November 26, 200421 yr Is 2.0 final going to fix the problem where deleting files in EXPLORER.EXE gradually causes system resources to be leaked away (viewable in Resource Meter)? This leads to crashes and extreme sluggishness (e.g. after deleting a file, 1 minute wait for Explorer to wake up).Is there any fix for this problem?I think I'm not the only one because after searching it sounds like others have this problem and it comes from IE 6.
November 26, 200421 yr Author This problem comes from IE 6. Because if you use IE 5.5 or older version, you don't have this problem.Problem files are BROWSEUI.DLL and BROWSELC.DLL. The only fix I know is that you must replace these two files with IE 5.5 SP2 versions.For more information, please look at this link.A fix for this problem is not in the SP 2.0, because adding a IE 6.0 specific fix is difficult. I hope I can add it in the 2.1.

November 26, 200421 yr I have also encountered the problem when deleting a large number of filesin Explorer and it hangs when running WinME. Or it stalls for a few minutesand then recovers & I can continue on normally. Workaround is to delete thefiles in good old-fashioned File Manager tool. Go to the Windows folder anddouble-click on the winfile.exe file to run File Manager. Even though FileManager doesn't handle long filenames, it deletes files faster than WindowsExplorer and doesn't lock up Windows. You can even change the 'System'attribute to a file which cannot be possible under Explorer.
