legacy software

Hello. I'm new to this forum and hope to get help. I've been running an old application since the XP days on various systems. I'm currently running it succcessfully on a W10 laptop, a W11 laptop, and it used to run on my W10 desktop. Starting yesterday, when it starts to load, it is...

On XP, I used to use programs like SweepRAM, and they would actually make a little dent in the current usage of then limited 2GB available memory. But nowadays, what do you think, do programs like this help at all on modern systems like Windows 10?

Hi all, When I try to print things in various programs, the print dialog box no longer pops up. It seems to be only the old version of the print dialog box, as trying to print something in apps such as the photo app causes the new version of print dialog box to pop up. It is when I try to print...

Hi Can we download the windows 7 32 bit for free for testing purposes? I had one like ten years ago however I don't remember how long it lasted for. I had it for a decent amount of time though as I remember playing farcry on it.

Hey folks, I'm looking for an x86 installer for URL Rewrite Module 1.1 or 1.0. I've seen references to URL Rewrite 1.1 installers named rewrite_1.1_x86_rtw.msi and rewrite_1.1_x86_en-US.msi, although I expect that there were other variants. All links I've found to these files, however, have...

Does anyone still use Windows 8? I have been using it for the Asus P450L since 2014

I am trying to view a site that uses Adobe flash for its presentation and Chrome blocks it. There is an option on Edge to use it "once". Is it safe to do? I don't know the ins and outs of the flash product but guess it is not usually safe to use - it is out of favor obviously. Thanks.

Using a Windows 7 initial install followed by Windows 10 has been the only way I've found to get Adobe CS5 operating on my system without a hitch. I use the compatibility settings to run it as a Windows 7 program after, but it didn't work on a straight Windows 10 install without installing 7...

I just returned my 2009 win7 Toshiba Laptop HDD back to its factory defaults from the OEM hidden restore partition. With the final security patches for win7 due out next month in January 2020, I want to have a clean fresh out-of-box 2020 win7 install with all the service packs and security...

My situation is this. I have an 11 year old laptop. This is now ONLY used as a display for a weather station, using a proprietary Windows XP application, so I am not interested in any new Windows features that 1803 might bring. Nevertheless up until now I have let all upgrades proceed. Now...

Dear Anyone. OK, me dinosaur, I use XP SP3. Why? It WORKS, I love it, it's not bloated, it just happily RUNS. But the world seems to be kicking me towards Win 10 - but I need to know if my music software will work on it. It's Quick Score Elite Level 3, which will mean nothing to anybody...
