wfunction Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Does anyone know how to run an executable from Vista (any executable which came with vista) in XP? I get this error: "This program is not a valid Win32 application." Yes, you can run bcdedit and some others, but only a few, because they're native apps.

florydude Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 KernelEx is an Open Source compatibility layer by Xeno86 with an aim to allow running Windows 2000/XP-only applications on Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft Windows Millennium operating systems. I remember with a certain version on a Virtual PC with Win98 running some simple programs that do not run on Win2k, WinXP, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flasche Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 No. For now. I would not be surprised if someone made a compatibility layer for XP in the future due to its popularity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrayer Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hm, still nothing? I can see there's kernelex for Win2k - is it capable to run some Vista-only app? Or just brings XP-only apps to W2k? I would wonder if W2k gets better support than XP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Slightly OT (but not much) recent versions of the MS compilers are preset to put in the buiilt PE a minimum OS version (Major and Minor) 6.0.The net result is that tools that can otherwise be run fine in 5.0 or 5.1 do not run and show:"This program is not a valid Win32 application." It is always worth to try using CFF explorer or similar to change the minimum OS version in the PE executable and see what happens, example:http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/173265-formatting-an-external-drive-using-different-interfaces/?p=1092453 jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrayer Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) Yes, I already patched PE header version more times and sometimes it works. But it's not enough to run e.g. newer version of Adobe Lightroom that needs newer API AHA, VAIO seems to look promissing, I'll try...
