When people talk about opensourcing Windows, it's about the in-house core components: kernel + core drivers (not the 3rd-party drivers that are also bundled with Windows), core user/win32 and shell stuff. Not the 3rd-party tools like HyperTerminal or the old disk defragger that was in Windows 2000 f...

It would be great to have all the other skins in a separate repository.

My old version of Mouse and Keyboard recorder from RobotSoft works in ReactOS.

But does it actually do what it is advertised for? (aka. does it actually work?)

Will be released the full-graphic installation for ReactOS?

It is currently work in progress by me (see the last line in the section "Changes planned (2018)" of https://reactos.org/wiki/0.5.0 ).

Looks like you first need to learn C before doing anything else...

Axel Rietschin, kernel engineer at Microsoft,

Is the Kernel Engineer the same person, who have written the FastPictureViewer ?

Yes he is.

Here is the explanation how it should go (since the aim of ReactOS is to re-implement NT architecture in an open-source manner): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2003/cc739412(v=ws.10) https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/w...

Certainly because there has been some abuse of the functionality by people in the past.

JIRA is not the right place for publishing investigation progress.

And using "epic" tag?
Here´s an example: https://jira.reactos.org/browse/CORE-15603

Don't you just understand what binarymaster has written and you quoted? JIRA is **ONLY** for bug-reports !!!!!!!!!!!!

This is indeed a not very clever move from MS...

It's usually disabled by default.

So, for all practical purposes, it's indistinguishable from nonexistent.

For all practical purposes you should have it enabled since day one (of the installation) so that we would not have to discuss about it only now.

I expected a screenshot in Serbian, not French, as you are a Croat.

First of all, it would be in Croatian, not in Serbian. Second, it's not because it has been two years since I'm living in Croatia that I suddently & magically became Croatian! (I have always been French.)
