WSL 2 is now ready for release. ENIW needs more developers before it becomes too late (MSFT open-sources Windows).

ReactOS needs more developers too, before it becomes too late (the WW3 happens and the coronavirus kills everyone too).

Otherwise there is the pronoun "One" as in: "One thinks ReactOS is great!"

Because at first ReactOS was an open source alternative for Windows 95 (kernel near from the 2000's one) Certainly not. ReactOS was originally an alternative to Windows NT 4, then Windows 2000, then XP and Server 2003. Windows 9x/Me OS and kernels are of completely different design than those of Wi...

Time for you to use Windbg on windows 2000 to debug the issue!

Not Windows 10 as we hoped

"We" == only you.

BTW: The Windows driver development kit and all it's uncompiled samples might be a blessing to those who use C, but for the rest of the world it's a horror.

That's because it is expected to write Windows drivers in C (or C++ with limitations) and not in any other language framework.

Hi, that's a nice idea, but that would require amongst others to be able to boot from a virtual hard disk (which is what win32-loader/wubi uses for "installing" linux and booting from it afterwards). This is not implemented yet in ReactOS.

Yes, and here is a far-fetched relationship: ROS -> ROSe -> emblem of Socialist Party -> Soviet ROS -> Glory to Motherland!

Hi,
I see that almost one year has passed from last UniATA update.
What is happened?

Well.... maybe because there is nothing to update?

Updated 2019.04.03
To get previous stable version - v 0.46d8 click here
Current version - v 0.47a

On the desktop there is a shortcut to an applications manager. It needs internet to be able to download things. Programs that are normally known to work on ReactOS (they definitively work on Windows 2003 too) are listed there by thematics.

Try removing the space after the comma?

Does ReactOS by default include any closed source blobs in its iso? Our ISOs are fully built from the ground up starting from the ROS source repo. Since we don't include binary executable blobs in it, because the rule is that everything should be built from source (ok except media binary resources ...

When Windows is detected, "convert" should appear instead of "update".

When ReactOS is such in alpha state, this distinction is meaningless.

Thanks! I did try it again and it appears the interface ('U' option when asked if you want to install ROS) is completely gone now. No loss as I couldn't get it to work even when it was there. Here is the current interface: the upgrade/repair screen is shown only if the ReactOS installer detects the...

That's another example of "too much emphasized PR kills everything" that we don't particularly like. For example for the number of devs you had to read the small line "accumulated over the years", and you also need to know for how long the project exists (since 1999). Somebody who reads that quickly...
