I must be forgetting something in Orca

You need to remove ExecSecureObjects from msi. Don't try too hard since soon you won't need to do that.

Indeed! It installed, but has a few minor issues. I'll put some screenshots to explain:

When I click File -- Open and click on Desktop in the dialog box, I see this:


Folders seem to be missing, like the Windows Folder, Program Files(Seems like all it sees is 'My Documents'):


Still no encrypted docx support. Double-clicking files works fine.

Congrats, quite an achievement.

Did anyone try Office 2007 format converters?

I could install it (delete LaunchCondition with Orca) but it did not work. Error with WORDCONV when opening a DOCX file with Word 2000

[cure]

I used Orca to delete the launch conditions of O12Conv.msi from FileFormatConverters.exe version 12.0.6015.5000. Started the O12Conv.msi and it installed with one reboot and a scanregw error. I tried a dozen docx files using Word 2002. Perhaps 7 converted perfectly. Three converted but with this error: "There was an error opening file." Two failed to converted with this error in Wordconv: "This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down." As expected pptx files failed to convert.

Any thoughts on whether the latest version of the converter might yield better results?

Impressive work in any case. Thanx.

I repeated the experiment with the latest version that I could find: 12.0.6500.5000. It works at least as well and probably better.

Now we would like crash logs / those files.

I should have mention this...
When I had just installed the converter and had the Word Viewer 97/2000 installed, I could not open DOCX files within the viewer, Double clicking them was the only way the converter seemed to work. If I chose File -- Open within the viewer, it displayed garbage.

Try finding your printer driver file spoolss.dll, right click on it, go to KernelEx tab, choose "Disable KernelEx extensions", close with OK.
And don't forget to report back.

The problem isn't related to KernelEx, at least not directly:

Your best options are trying to replace spoolss.dll with the one from Me (4.90.3000) or disabling the antivirus.

I have installed KernelEx 4.5 RC5.

Running fine,
but I don't find any improvement in VLC.

Like previously I can't use any version after VLC 1.0.3.

I have the very latest KernelEx installed, but when I try and download the latest Adobe Shockwave player 11.5.9.615 It trys to install, but then it stops and I get an error on Firefox, here are the details, and wondered if there was something I did wrong or need to do in order to get the shockwave to successfully install, by the way after the error is shows up in the list of add/remove program list, but the player doesn't work because when I test it on the adobe site nothing shows in the box.

SHOCKWAVE_INSTALLER_SLIM caused an exception c0000417H in module SCC.DLL at 016f:008b6300.

Where do I find the crash log? (A search of *.log with today's date turned up nothing). Equally, the docx files are actually student papers from my archive so I can't just post them. I might be able to do something with email after stripping off names. Please send me a PM.

[Steven W]

Tihiy, I'm not sure if these would be helpful or not, the folks with the OpenXML/ODF Translator Add-in for Office have a collection of sample documents. I'll post the links for the DOCX files that I'm aware of.

http://sourceforge.n....0.zip/download

I hope that'll be a good start for you. By the way, that converter isn't always perfect.

Uuhh, a new design...
...but actually I recently found a program that refuses to work... It's a kind of free modular audio system (I couldn't try it jet..) called Usine ( http://www.sensomusic.com/download/ ). (no install necessary!)
I have a win98se + everything. The error-message tells something like this:
"The File USINEMAIN.EXE is linked to the missing Export-KERNEL32.DLL:GetSystemTimes."
Could anyone try this? And is possible to fix it??

I have been told that Firefox versions 3.6 need the next generation version of the Java plugin, but unfortunately this version won't work on the windows 98 system.

So I am wondering if it's possible to check this out, and if that is indeed the case, is it possible to built this request into the next release of KernelEx in order to make the new plugin work on Windows 98?

Here is a quote on the Mozilla forum...........

If you use KernelEx then I assume that you are on a Windows 98 / ME platform.
Firefox 3.6 versions need the Next Generation version of the Java plugin and current Java version probably won't work on the Windows 98 platform.
