Windows NT was not build from scratch in one year, every single Windows is build from each other. And ReactOS can't reuse Windows code. For a stable version, it should cost more money and more time that what you think.

Re: Questions about ReactOS
Bat works (normally). XP and older compatible apps are working but not all, for recent apps it's the gamble but a lot doesn't works. Stable no because it's in ALPHA stage.

Re: Chrome vs Firefox - Which is better Web Browser?
Chrome is the worst Browser. It's the new Internet Explorer. Security holes everywhere, spying... Firefox is one of the least worst browsers (don't forget Tor browser is not based on it for nothing). Sadly there is no good browser currently. I'm against the Webkit/Blink browsers, because they are to...

Re: My bliss wallpapers
We are in 2025, the minimum resolution for a wallpaper is 1920x1080 the full HD. I know ReactOS target 2003 Server but don't overdo it anyway.

Re: Why is Wine capable of running Roblox, Office 2016 and other programs, but ReactOS is not?
Like said by PeterLinuxer, ReactOS need to reimplement all Windows (Kernel + File Systems + Libraries + API + software + fonts + drivers...) and it target Windows 2003 by default (WINE target Windows 10). WINE just reimplement Libraries and translate the API calls to the Linux Kernel, it's difficult...

You are welcome, but I really simplified at max. My words can be take as wrong by specialists/devs (same like some peoples said Linux for GNU/Linux).

Re: Future of React os?
Hello, I just want to preface this by saying I mean no disrespect. I Genuinely think this is a neat project. I have been watching the progress since about 2013 and often wonder why it seems there is little progress towards stability. Atleast in the as a whole sense. I've seen ui overhauls, support ...

Re: Informazioni su Installazione
Ciao a te. ReactOS è ancora in fase di sviluppo e attualmente non dispone di una versione finale utilizzabile. Ancora di più sull'hardware fisico. A meno che tu non stia semplicemente facendo qualche test, non consiglio di installare ReactOS su questo PC. Prova invece a installare Linux.

Re: Open source directx implementation
And ReactX is more advanced in comparison of OpenDX. For information ReactX is based on Wine libs (there are sync recently) and it's also the base of Proton (the project of Steam).

Re: new opportunity for Reactos, windows 10 end of life October 2025
The end of Windows 10 is in 16 months, it's too short to switch the status of alpha to final stage (especially considering the 30 years of development to always be in alpha stage).
