Our internal hook for GetProcAddress used to not check include/exclude list at all which means the GetProcAddress calls from all modules are shimmed. Then we added code to take include/exclude list into consideration and that "broke" apps that used to rely on the previous behavior. To compensate for this, you can specify this shim to get back the old behavior. Workaround for a USER bug (or by design behaviour) where if you call SetCursor(NULL) and the cursor is over somebody elses window, the cursor stays visible. We don't normally see this because most apps that want the cursor to be invisible are full-screen: so the cursor is always over their window. Custom shim for Adobe Acrobat to reject calls to SetWindowPos that would cause the application window to shrink to a sausage in the upper-left hand corner of the screen. Add flags to Peb-ProcessParameter-Flags. The flags are a ULONG. Specify it as a hex number (so at most 8 digits). Force device Read/Write permissions to match the permission necessary for all IOCTLs. This compatibility fix enables SecureROM applications to correctly open the sound devices. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 First Custom Action MSI shim. This hooks MsiGetProperty and corrects the parameters passed. Hooks SystemParametersInfo and when SPI_SETSCREENSAVEACTIVE is passed with FALSE as its argument, the shim only deletes the SCRNSAVE.EXE reg value which sets the "None" screen saver option instead of setting ScreenSaverActive to 0 as well, which completely disables screen savers (with no recovery UI). Windows 9x and Windows 2000 internally cache DirectDraw DC handles. This guarantees that the same DC would be returned for a particular surface regardless of how many times it was released and acquired. This compatibility fix aliases DCs returned by DirectDraw and then de-aliases them when GDI functions are called. The app calls a Bink API to outside of a BinkOpen/BinkClose call. This is a synchronization issue fixed by delaying the BinkClose call. A security change for Windows Server 2003 disallowed apps from using SetProp on the Desktop window. This shim caches the data from calls to SetProp on the desktop window and supplies the data when later requested. Reroute AOL setup to bundled installer if it exists. AOL calls RasSetEntryProperties with a RASENTRY structure whose size is set to the size of buffer returned by RasGetEntryProperties. It's actually supposed to be sizeof(RASENTRY). This caused an uninitialized portion of the newly expanded RASENTRY structure to be passed in and the API doesn't like indeterminate values for dwRedialPulse. This app assumes the size of the registry Key HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\class and enumerates this with a fixed length buffer causing an unexpected behaviour. Logs API calls made by the application to an .LGV file in %windir%\AppPatch. You must copy LogExts.dll, LogViewer.exe and the Manifest directory to %windir%\AppPatch in order for this shim to function properly. Hooks PDH API PdhAddCounter and passes in the correct counter value \Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time when the obsolete counter value of \System\% Total Processor Time is passed to it. Make USER32!IsRectEmpty fail silently when passed bad pointers to work around a timing based Watson issue. Application specific. Application specific. Application specific. Application specific. Application specific. Av occurs due to uninitialized parameters with TVM_GETITEM sendmessage If you use a video card that supports more than 10 texture formats the app will AV writing passed the end of their SURFACEDESC array. Fix various problems with Battleship by preventing the launcher and Classic version of the game from running. There are too many issues to shim easily redirecting to the Ultimate exe gives all the same functionality. Several problems with this one: 1. Loops while playing movies, so we have to detect when mci is busy 2. Provide special logic for the case when it calls IDirectDraw::SetCooperativeLevel *between* a BeginScene/EndScene pair. Specific shim to correct bad parameter to GetDiskFreeSpaceA. No idea why this worked on Win9x. Corrects the file path for the uninstall. Calls GetWindowLongW internally, when the App. calls GetWindowLongA to get the 'Window Proc. address'. This is because in Win2K, GetWindowLongA does not return the "Window Procedure" address directly and the app has to use CallWindowProc to call the window procedure, which it is not doing. Invalidate after SetWindowTextA because app doesn't repaint correctly. Appears to be timing related. Specific to Boeing. Adds the FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING to CreateFileA and CreateFileW calls for a specific pipe. Force setup to run msjavx86.exe after it attempts to run IE 5 setup. This app deletes HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.HTC and breaks the ControlPanel Add/Remove applet. Canvas doesn't like really light colors for btnface. Application actually *copies* desktop shortcut during install, rather than creating one. Move the desktop shortcut to the correct directory and correct all the properties. App uses some 16-bit stuff to play intro videos which doesn't work on NT. If the videos had been successufully played, it would have set a variable to 0 which it later on checks to determine if it should call DestroyWindow on the SmackWin windows. We return 0 when CreateWindowEx is called to create the intro video window so this variable will be set to 0. Changes COM Security Level from RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE to RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_COMMON. This enables temporary elevation of the security context for an application. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 App needs ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER swallowed. The application has two problems. 1. It is expecting metric value. It is ok in win9x and win2k but it's not the case in winXP. 2. The application calls CreateIpForwardEntry with MIB_IPPROTO_LOCAL. It will fail in winXP. The application should use MIB_IPPROTO_NETMGMT. Chollian 2000 Plus has its own sub-classed edit control for user to input password. it does not work on whistler. The symptom is when user tried to mouse double click the password which is shown in *, the password will be exposed and shown in plain text This application specific shim fixes the problem by setting ES_PASSWORD bit to CreateWindowEx's 4th parameter dwStyle Win9x contained a hack for static controls that allowed their resource ids to be retrieved using GetWindowText. This is not available on NT (never was), since the resource id is not stored. We just return a known good value for this app. Prevents the loader from coming up with a message for missing linkage by faking the CreateProcessA() call. Commandos caches a pointer to the primary - when returning from Alt+Tab, the memory is mapped to a different location (on NT) and so the app AVs. The fix is to patch the new pointer into their cache location. This file is used by the Windows Embedded team to monitor component dependencies This shim checks to see if Compton's Interactive Bible is calling DdeClientTransaction to create a program group in the Start Menu for America Online. If so, NULL is passed as pData to prevent the application from doing anything with the program group, i.e. CreateGroup or ShowGroup. The registration window never has focus. We force it to have focus. Application specific. App repeatedly calls SetWindowTextA with the same title causing flickering. This repros on some machines and not others: we don't know why. This compatibility fix handles applications that pass a cbSrcLength value that is too big in the ACMSTREAMHEADER parameter to acmStreamConvert or acmStreamPrepareHeader. Corrects the samples per block for acmStreamOpen so that it will pass IMA ADPCM's parameter validation. Redirects calls from legacy movies to Windows Media Player instead of using the AMOVIE.OCX control to display the movie. This compatibility fix corrects known bad bitmap headers. Windows XP is more restrictive in the format of bitmap headers in an effort to promote wider compatibility. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 The CreateEvent function doesn't accept event names that contain a backslash. This compatibility fix will replace backslashes with an underscore. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to the CreateIcon API and zeros the alpha channel in lpbXORbits. This has the effect of improving the display of certain icons in Windows XP. Corrects the DDSCAPS structure of DirectDraw CreateSurface operations. This compatibility fix corrects the lfCharSet value in LOGFONTA to correctly display localized versions of Far East characters. Some localized Far East applications create fonts to display localized characters by supplying only the font face name, and let the system pick up the correct character set. This works fine on Windows 9x platforms. But on Windows XP, you need to specify the correct character set in order to display localized characters correctly. Looks for c:\windows\system\ in calls to the SetDlgItemTextA API and replaces it with the string returned from the GetSystemDirectory API. This compatibility fix corrects file paths that were changed between Windows 9x and Windows XP. It works by hooking the file APIs and converting the file paths to the correct location for Windows XP. For example, a Windows 9x path of C:\Windows\Write.exe would be converted to C:\Windows\System32\Write.exe. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 If file locations are corrected during install, the uninstall program should attempt to find the file in its new location when uninstalling. If the CorrectFilePaths compatibility fix is used with an application, then this compatibility fix should be applied to the application’s uninstall program. The OpenFile(fileName, xxx, OF_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE) API fails on Windows 9x if the file referenced by fileName is currently opened. Windows XP allows the OpenFile call to succeed. This compatibility fix forces the OpenFile API to fail if the file is already open. This compatibility fix makes calls to the waveOutOpen, waveOutGetDevCaps, midiOutOpen and midiOutGetDevCaps APIs with the uDeviceID equal to 0xFFFF, which was the constant for the Wave/MIDI Mapper under 16-bit windows. Under 32-bit Windows the constant is 0xFFFFFFFF. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 In Windows XP, due to a modification in the caching between MoveFile and DeleteFile API's, when the VerInstallFileW API is called, the short (8.3) filename gets set instead of the long filename. This compatibility fix corrects this problem. This issue may affect the installation of an application if an older version is still present. App determines if it has focus based on the WM_ACTIVATEAPP message. Howver, the Safedisc 2.0 wrapper window gets created first and so the main window always thinks it's inactive. This shim explicity sends the message to the main window. This shim hooks all application-defined window procedures and filters out an illegal message code which causes the application to beep annoyingly. Hide WM_DISPLAYCHANGE for low resolution modes so app doesn't crash Application specific. Execute a custom CUAS command-line behavior change. This Shims disables CUAS (Cicero Unaware App Support). Application specific, fixes profile problems. Some applications may use static DLLs, which could potentially issue calls to APIs before the application is ready. This compatibility fix provides a workaround for this behavior by causing a delay in the application’s static DLLs. This compatibility fix takes a command line containing a list of the DLLs affected. They will be loaded in the reverse order of the command line listing. Note that this compatibility fix is similar to InjectDll, which works with dynamically loaded DLLs. The DDE command ShowGroup does not operate synchronously, though it should. Often the application will resume before the group is visible, not a problem in and of itself, but this creates problems if the application calls DeleteGroup before the group is visible. In that case, Explorer will generate this lengthy message: "DirName refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, on a network, or on a different computer on your home network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or home network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information may have been moved to a different location." Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 95 version credentials. This compatibility fix takes a command line number which is the number of calls by which to delay version lying. This is useful in cases where some parts of an application are version sensitive, but others are not. WaveOutOpen provides a callback mechanism, where very few APIs may be called. While inside this callback the entire Wave Out system is locked. It is very easy to deadlock the application. This compatibility fix catches all the WINMM callback data, and passes it to the application from the WM_TIMER callback which exists in the main application thread. This is a general purpose compatibility fix which can delete any file in a given path and FileVersion. The path and the FileVersion are optional. The command line can contain FileName:Path;FileVersion,FileName1:Path1;FileVersion1 etc... Eg. Ole2.dll:system,MFC42.dll:;6082.0.0.945,Foo.dll:d:\program Files\DisneyInteractive;. etc.. 'system' implies the %windir%. '0' OR "" implies that the filename itself is a fully qualified path OR one has the option of giving the path seperately...The same holds good for FileVersion also. It is optional. Some installation programs will create a randomly named executable when they are launched that is responsible for performing the actual setup. This compatibility fix takes a command line that specifies what random executable name is created, and upon creation, renames it to the new name specified on the command line. The command line is given as the source name followed by the desired name. For example: *.EXE;RANDOMSETUP.EXE. On a WM_ERASEBKGND fills the background window with white. The app doesn't handle the WM_PAINT messages so when you drag the "Save As" dialog box, the main window doesn't redraw. We fix this by capturing the static image of the main window into a memory DC and blit from it when the WM_PAINT messages arrive (the image under the dialog doesn't change). Some applications may expect the DirectPlay devices to be enumerated in a specific order. This compatibility fix enables the DirectPlay devices to enumerate in the expected order for applications that exhibit this behavior. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 The app doesn't have a background brush. On 9x it doesn't draw anything when the window is not responding. On NT it draws with the window background color. We fix this by setting the app's background to a black brush. This compatibility fix disables the automatic boost threads get when they are unblocked. Windows 9X does this only on message objects, and not on synchronization objects. The COMMAND_LINE options are: +HigherMainThread or +LowerMainThread to change the main thread priority and +BoostMainThread to leave the automatic boost for the main thread This compatibility fix disables the Filter Keys Accessibility Option at application startup and restores it on termination of the application. This compatibility fix disables the screen saver at application startup and restores it on termination of the application. It's useful for DirectX applications that don't work well with an active screen saver. This compatibility fix disables the Sticky Keys Accessibility Option at application startup, and re-enables it on termination of the application. Because of the new display themes in Windows XP, some applications may have unpredictable behavior when trying to detect and use the correct window settings. This compatibility fix temporarily disables the Windows XP theme functionality for applications that do not support it. Windows 2000 introduced new owner-draw button states that can be sent to an application during WM_DRAWITEM messages. These owner-draw states are used in Windows XP as well. This compatibility fix removes those states for applications that are not expecting this information. Bad game logic requires that memory mapped files have addresses over 2GB. This causes the game to hang while loading. The fix involves memory patching and adding logic to manage bad cases. This shim is to disable calls to install legacy IE langpack, since NT already has its own. Some app has its own wmpui.dll, and register / unregister during the app installation/uninstallation, This shim makes the apps's private wmpui.dll's exports DLLRregisterServer and DllUnregister do nothing. This is application specific shim. Fix for DrEye. This compatibility fix returns a valid handle when GetFocus is Called. DuplicateHandle was changed from Win2000 to always NULL the destination handle, even if errors were generated. This shim ensures that *lpTargetHandle is not modified if the duplication was not successful. The EA Sports titles ship with what they call a Thrash Driver. This is just a wrapper for DirectX/Glide. In this shim we make sure they don't setup the Glide driver because it's unsupported on XP. Deletes the only subkey the app created under HKCR\Drive\ShellEx\ContextMenuHandlers. Cleanup roxio filter drivers for the uninstaller. For Apps calling SetClipboardData (CF_TEXT) without emptying the clipboard first. The GetObjectA API incorrectly calculates bitmap strides. The stride should be a multiple of 4. Note that the underlying bitmap or dibsection object is stored correctly, but the GetObject calculation is wrong. This compatibilty fix is for Windows 2000-specific applications only. Windows 9x does not set the read-only flag on CD-ROM directories like Windows XP. This compatibility fix removes such flags from file operations and causes the application to ignore all sharing and write attributes to emulate Windows 9x. This compatibility fix also handles the substantial differences in the CD attributes between Windows 9x and Windows XP. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 On Windows 9x when you copy a high color bitmap onto the clipboard, it always gets converted to a 24-bit DIB when the CF_DIB format is specified. On Windows XP this conversion doesn't happen. Some applications are only designed to handle 8-bit and 24-bit DIBs. This compatibility fix converts the high-color DIBs to 24-bit DIBs. The Windows 9x version of the CreateFileMapping API requires a SEC_COMMIT flag, while the Windows XP version does not. This compatibility fix adds the SEC_COMMIT flag for applications that expect it to be present. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix hooks the CreateProcessA API and ensures that all parameters have acceptable values for Windows XP's implementation of the API, which is more restrictive than Windows 9x. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix causes the Windows XP version of DeleteObject to return success, which is the Windows 9x behavior. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix hooks the mutex APIs that DirectDraw uses to synchronize exclusive mode access and ensures all synchronization events happen on the same thread. DirectDraw may produce unstable results if the exclusive mode is released from a thread other than the one that acquired it. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 In Windows 9x, the DrawText API would accept out of range values and then convert them to acceptable values. This compatibility fix mimics that behavior for Windows XP. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix causes Windows XP to return a significantly reduced environment block from the environment APIs. This reduces the chance of a buffer overrun causing corruption. If an application calls the FindFirstFile API on a directory, and then attempts to remove that directory without first closing the FindFirstFile handle, the directory will be reported as being in use. The RemoveDirectory API call will return an ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION error. This compatibility fix will force the FindFirstFile handle closed to ensure the directory is removed. The fix also ensures the FindFirstFile handles are valid before calling the FindNext or FindClose APIs. The FindFirstFile handle will not be forced closed unless the directory is empty. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 The behavior of GetCommandLine differs from Windows 9x to Windows XP. For example, if a user enters the command line: E:\temp\test.exe -dm -cdrom, Windows XP's GetCommandLine() returns: test.exe -dm -cdrom. Windows 9x's GetCommandLine() returns: E:\TEMP\TEST.EXE -dm -cdrom. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix checks for known issues with the GetDeviceCaps API between the Windows 9x and Windows XP versions, and corrects them where possible. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix causes the Windows XP version of GetFreeDiskSpace to return values similar to those returned by Windows 9x. It hooks the GetDiskFreeSpace API and determines the true free space on FAT32/NTFS systems. If the free space is larger than 2GB, the compatibility fix will return 2GB as Windows 9x would return. If it is smaller than 2GB, it converts the sector geometry to emulate Windows 9x. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 The GetProfileString API in Windows 9x stripped trailing white space (including tabs) from the end of INI file strings. In Windows XP, the full line is returned, including the white space at the end. This can sometimes result in bitmaps failing to load because the filename is invalid. This compatibility fix causes the Windows XP version of the GetProfileString API to emulate the behavior of the Windows 9x version. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Normally, when a process is created on Windows XP, the hStdInput, hStdOutput, and hStdError members of the STARTUPINFO structure are set to NULL. Some applications may check these handles and send error messages. This compatibility fix can be used in this case to send appropriate handles and prevent program termination. Emulate Windows 2000 GetStringType[W, ExW, A, ExA]. If on a TS session, force SPI_GETUIEFFECTS to FALSE (default) or TRUE This compatibility fix emulates the functionality of the Windows 9x heap manager. It is is full implementation of the Windows 9x heap manager ported to Windows XP. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix will retrieve JOYCAPS data for a given joystick number and copy the number of requested bytes to an application structure. If the return value is an error, then this compatibility fix will fill the JoyCaps structure with the same values from Windows 9x. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix intercepts all of the LZ API calls and either increments or decrements the handles so that a valid handle (from the application's perspective) is always greater than 0 instead of greater than or equal to 0. This compatibility fix applies to applications that treat a handle value of zero as an error. Windows 9x never returned handles of zero, but this is a possibility on Windows XP. This compatibility fix hooks the CreateProcess and WinExec APIs to spoof executables that need redirection such as Start.exe, ScanDskW.exe, Defrag.exe, Rundll32.exe, Control.exe, WinHelp.exe, and PBrush.exe. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Windows 2000 does not ship out of the box OpenGL drivers. This compatibility fix contains an OpenGL implementation using Direct3D with enough features to support some games, especially those built on the Quake engine. If an application calls PlaySound with a SND_LOOP flag, the sound plays continuously until PlaySound is called with a NULL sound name. Windows 9x will automatically stop the sound if a different sound is played. This compatibility fix will catch all PlaySound calls, remember the current sound and automatically stop it if a different sound is to be played. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix corrects a variety of differences that occur between the printer routines in Windows 9x and Windows XP. Most of the issues deal with the EnumPrinters API, and the different behavior of this API between Windows 9x and Windows XP. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix modifies the return values of QueryPerformanceCounter and QueryPerformanceFrequency in order to emulate those expected from performance checking routines to emulate slower processors. If +timeGetTime is specified as a command line, timeGetTime will delay slightly. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix compensates for some incompatibilities between the Windows 9x version of the GDI APIs and the versions found in Windows XP. In particular, this compatibility fix relates to the COLORREF flags used for text color. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix addresses two separate issues with the PROCESSENTRY32 API. The first converts the standard Windows XP usage of the szExeFile field from the image name to the Windows 9x style, which includes the full path and executable name. The second issue addressed is that of the cntUsage field, which on Windows 9x is always non-zero, and on Windows XP is always zero. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Fixes for known API differences between Win9x and NT: SetWindowsHookEx, SetWindowLong, RegisterClass, ChangeDisplaySettings/ChangeDisplaySettingsEx, ToAscii/ToAsciiEx, GetMessage/PeekMessage, ShowWindow. Also persists palette state through mode changes. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix permits a NULL buffer to be passed to VerQuery functions. In Windows XP this technique is considered obsolete as it was corrected in the API. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Windows 9x permitted a NULL buffer to be passed to the WriteFile API, with the assumption being that a series of zeroes should be written. Windows XP will fail on this call when a NULL buffer is passed. This compatibility fix emulates the behavior of WriteFile on Windows 9x when it receives a NULL buffer. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Allow IIS to turn on specific ISAPIs for specific apps. These were disabled by security changes. The IIS team owns AcWebSvc and ensures that it ends up in AppPatch. RichardE is the contact. In Windows 9x applications could restart the computer by calling the ExitWindowsEx API. Windows XP requires the application to run with adequate security privileges to successfully call the ExitWindowsEx API. This compatibility fix enables an application to call the ExitWindowsEx API with correct security privileges. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Encarta is calling to a version of MSINFO32.EXE that also uses some 16-bit code. Hooking WinExec to route it to the version of MSINFO32.EXE that is installed with Win2K or Whistler. Filters messages from the apps CBT WindowsHook. For apps calling GetObjectA() with cbBuffer is less than sizeof(BITMAP). App specific shim which handles restoring the palette for european air war in a specific instance. Application specific. Some applications that use the ExtractAssociatedIcon API call do not handle the 32bpp icons correctly. This compatibility fix forces the icon to revert to an 8bbp icon. App has 2 problems: 1. After the app has drawn a modal dialog, a paint comes through to the parent, which uses a DirectDraw Blt to draw paint over the dialog. This is fixed by Validating after a paint message. 2. Occasionally we get a SYSKEY message because no window has the focus. This minimizes the app. Note this happens on win9x as well, but that doesn't handle it well either. We fix this by removing syskey messages from the queue. Some applications require that the CloseProfileUserMapping API call fail. On Windows XP, there is no way for this API to fail. This compatibility fix causes the call to fail. Note that this issue is machine dependent - some machines do not need this fix while others do. Some applications expect a call to GetStdHandle to fail. This compatibility fix causes all calls to the GetStdHandle API to fail. Some applications call obsolete private shell32 API's whose ordinals have been reused by other APIs. This shim hooks GetProcAddress and when it sees an obsolete shell32 ordinal it returns stubbed-out functions that fail. Currently only the FileMenu_* APIs are stubbed out. This compatibility fix causes the OpenFile API to fail on specific files. The file names to be failed are supplied on the command line when this compatibility fix is used. This compatibility fix causes socket to fail with an INVALID_SOCKET return code. Some application’s menus may not behave correctly when the system color for menu does not match the system color for button face. This compatibility fix forces a match between the menu and button colors. This compatibility fix is used for showing up UI for sending layer feedback to Microsoft. This compatibility fix hooks the GetFileVersionInfo and GetFileVersionInfoSize APIs to return the version block for DirectX 6.1 components. The command line input allows you to select specific filenames and resources to use instead of the defaults. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Remove certain network providers to fix apps that depend on Microsoft Windows Network being either the only provider, or the first in the list. This game stores the filenames it calls CreateFile on in a block of memory and occasionally it gets the offsets wrong and it's always off by 9 bytes. A service startup circular dependency occurs when two or more installed services depend upon each other to start. That is, service ‘A’ cannot start until service ‘B’ starts, but service ‘B’ cannot start without service ‘A’ running. This compatibility fix attempts to counter this behavior. This compatibility fix forces the color depth of the display to use 8-bit color (256 colors) when the process starts. Fix for Force21. Bad game logic requires that memory mapped files have addresses over 2GB. This causes the game to hang while loading. The fix involves memory patching and adding logic to manage bad cases. This compatibility fix sets the screen display to 640x480 pixels when the process starts as a temporary resolution change. This compatibility fix sets the screen display to 640x480 pixels with 8-bit color when the process starts as a temporary resolution change. This compatibility fix sets the screen display to 640x480 pixels with 16-bit color when the process starts as a temporary resolution change. This compatibility fix addresses issues that may be encountered when an application uses the CheckTokenInformation API call to verify if the current user is part of the Administrators group. The fix intercepts calls to CheckTokenInformation and returns a value of true. This compatibility fix forces the IShellFolder::GetDisplayNameOf API to return an ANSI string as Windows 98 would, instead of a Unicode string as Windows XP would return. Applications that use the GetDisplayNameOf API to get the path for the Desktop or the Start Menu folders that fail to check the uType flag to see if it is Unicode will get an unreadable path name. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to the GetWindowLongA API and redirects them to the GetWindowLongW API to get the WindowProc address. This is because in Windows XP, the GetWindowLongA API does not return the "Window Procedure" address directly and the application has to use the CallWindowProc API to call the window procedure. This compatibility fix also works for the Dialog procedure. In Windows XP, applications are restricted from modifying the system menu. Instead, each application gets a separate copy of the system menu. Some applications may try to get a handle to the real system menu and attempt to modify it. This compatibility fix makes the AppendMenu API return TRUE all the time, since there is no way to tell if an HMENU is the handle to the real system menu or simply a handle to the local copy of the system menu. Some applications may lose focus and are unable to regain it due to Windows XP window manager changes. This compatibility fix forces new windows to receive focus and move to the foreground. Some apps that use MCI to play their AVIs send messages in an order that causes mciavi32 to continually re-open the window it's supposed to be playing to. This compatibility fix filters the calls made to MCI and cause them to be executed in the existing target window. This compatibility fix addresses the problem of contention with the CD drive. Some applications may try to access the CD even if they are playing a movie or sound via MCI. Note that this compatibility fix assumes the application is running off of a single CD-ROM drive at a time. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Some multimedia applications on Windows 9x would call AVIFileInit without first calling CoInitialize. This would work in Windows 9x but will fail on Windows XP. This compatibility fix will call CoInitialize on CoCreateInstance if it hasn't already been called. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 In Windows 9x, DirectDraw manipulates the palette directly without using GDI, while on NT it uses GDI. Therefore, if an application mixes calls to GDI and DirectDraw palette operations, they will get different results from Windows 9x to NT. This compatibility fix attempts to isolate GDI palette operations from DirectDraw in order to more closely emulate Windows 9x behavior. Some applications don't handle certain aspects of hardware acceleration correctly. For example, they may assume that the pitch is always double the width in 16bpp displays, which is not necessarily the case. This compatibility fix forces DirectDraw into emulation mode where the pitch is directly scaled to the width. DirectDraw Blt and Lock calls may encounter device busy situations more frequently on Windows XP than was common on Windows 9x. This compatibility fix adds WAIT flags to Blt and Lock calls to avoid application failure due to device busy scenarios. This compatibility fix applies to applications that require a specific resolution to run. It takes a command line to specify the resolution. The command line options must specify the width (pixels), height (pixels), and color depth (bits). If the desired resolution is omitted, the current system resolution will be used. For example, if you specify a setting of 1024,768,16 the application will use a setting of 1024x768 at a color depth of 16 bits. If you were to specify the command line of ,,16, the application would use the current system resolution but would change to 16-bit color depth. Some applications built to use older version of DirectX may encounter problems on Windows XP when they call the LoadLibrary or GetProcAddress functions of DSETUP.DLL. This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to these APIs and forces them to return success. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix ensures that when a window is destroyed, another visible window from the current application is ready to take its place. Otherwise, the application can lose focus altogether, which is inconsistent with Windows 9x behavior. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to the MessageBox API and adds MB_SETFOREGROUND style. This effectively forces the resulting MessageBox to be the foreground window. Add the CREATE_SEPARATE_WOW_VDM to CreateProcess calls, so that a separate VDM process is always created. This compatibility fix resolves an issue that some applications may encounter where a call to IShellLink::Resolve may generate a dialog box even when the SLR_NO_UI flag is set in the parameters. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix adjusts the CreateWindow API parameters to make only very simple windows. This is useful for fixing issues where an application passes combinations of styles that had special meaning on Windows 9x, but are unsupported on Windows XP. This compatibility fix ensures that any mode changes the application makes are temporary in nature. When this fix is applied, all mode changes will be reset when the application terminates. This compatibility fix sets the working directory to match the executable path when using the IShellLink SetWorkingDirectory and SetPath APIs. Registers the application as an FUS bad application type 1. This means that the option to terminate will be given on a second instance launch in a different FUS session. If privileges do not allow termination a warning is issued and the application is shut down. This is the least intrusive form of tagging. Registers the application as an FUS bad application type 2. This means that the application is very poorly behaved and is shut down on switch user or return to welcome. Use this as a last resort because it means that returning to welcome will terminate the application. This is the most intrusive form of tagging. A typical example of use is a DVD player which bypasses GDI and draws thru regardless of the active session. These applications must be shutdown for the disconnect to complete. Registers the application as an FUS bad application type 3. This means that the application uses resources that are not easily shared across multiple sessions. A typical example of use is synchronizing software with a hand held device that uses the COM port while active. Apps are restarted when the user reconnects back to their session. Registers the application as an FUS bad application type 4. This means that the application does something that intrusive but does not need termination on return to welcome. The application is terminated (and not restarted unlike type 3) when a new user logs on (or reconnects) that is different from the last user. A typical example of use is a CD player which plays music. The user can let the system return to welcome but this action will not terminate the app. When a different user logs on the apps is terminated because there is no way to terminate it from a limited user. Spoofs the existance of 8 files named $$$$$$$$.$$$ on the CD and reports that the CD has 10 tracks. Do not allow explorer extension to modify the Window style. This compatibility fix modifies the memory status structure so that it reports a swap file that is 400MB in size regardless of the true swap file size. This compatibility fix modifies the pagefile and physical memory status so that it reports 2 gig of pagefile and 1 gig of physical memory. This is for use with 64 bit machines which can have more than 2 gig of memory. A COMMAND_LINE can be added to specify a different pagefile and physical memory size. Example: COMMAND_LINE="2147483647,536870911" would set a 2 gig pagefile and a 512 meg physical memory. You should not, of course, use negative numbers or a number higher than 2 gig. This shim will strip out specified flags from the lpFileSystemFlags parameter on the return from GetVolumeInformationA/W. This allows apps that improperly handle compression or encryption to be lied to that the filesystem does not support that feature. Many of the application compatibility strategies in Windows XP depend on “matching information”, which will help to identify an application in need of a particular fix. This compatibility fix will go through the current process' directory and each spawned process' directory and produce matching information in a file named matchinginfo.txt on the desktop. This compatibility fix addresses issues with APIs that may not gracefully handle receiving bad parameters. Currently, this works with the BackupSeek, CreateEvent, and GetFileAttributes APIs. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Applications fail when its app path name has high ASCII characters. This shim wraps the app path with double quotes at GetCommandLineA. If app path is double quoted, the application can sometimes handle DBCS characters. Some old non-DBCS applications handle characters by byte rather than by character. If the application calls a DBCS-enabled Win32 API (eg. CharNextA), it will break the DBCS character at the second byte. This compatibility fix is used to disable the DBCS feature for CharNextA if the string is a DBCS user profile. AccessCheck used to return STATUS_SUCCESS if the DesiredAccess flag was 0, it now returns STATUS_FAILURE This compatibility fix intercepts calls to the RegQueryValueEx APIs for REG_EXPAND_SZ registry keys and converts them to REG_SZ by expanding the embedded environment strings. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix provides a facility to convert the argument list from LPSTR into VA_LIST. Some native Windows 9x applications use LPSTR instead of VA_LIST. Without properly checking the return value, these applications may assume that it is safe to use Wvsprintf, but in Windows XP, this may cause an access violation. This compatibility fix takes one command line: "arglistfix" (case insensitive). Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix will clear out every heap allocation for the application with zeroes, or with a DWORD value that has been supplied in the command line. This compatibility fix will delay calls to LocalFree. This may help applications that are trying to free heap memory using LocalFree before all activities have been concluded. Zero the maximum size of a heap on HeapCreate for applications that didn't give themselves enough space. Remove the GMEM_MOVEABLE flag if GlobalAlloc fails. The NT heap manager has a 64K limit on the number of moveable blocks it allocates. This compatibility fix simply removes the moveable flag if the allocation fails. This compatibility fix is superceded by EmulateHeap. This compatibility fix addresses potential problems with applications that may need help with heap memory free calls. The fix also checks to insure that all free calls are made to the correct heap. This compatibility fix allocates additional memory for every allocation made through the HeapAlloc API. This fix is command line driven, but 256 is the default amount to add. This compatibility fix validates the calls to the HeapFree API to ensure the pointer is in the heap that it was allocated from. App specific issue with SetClassLongA(..., GCL_HICON); message-pumping thread is asleep, all threads waiting when WM_NCUAHDRAWCAPTION is sent. ShowCursor will display the cursor if the count is >= 0, this shim will force ShowCursor to act as a toggle rather than a count. In other words it forces the count to be 0 or -1. Display modes are enumerated differently for Windows XP than they were on Windows 9x. This may cause issues for some applications when they attempt to list all of the supported display modes and store that information in a fixed-length buffer. This compatibility fix reduces the number of display modes reported to mimic the behavior of Windows 9x. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 In Windows XP, the WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE window style causes applications to run with the taskbar still visible. This may not be the expected behavior for some applications running in full screen mode. This compatibility fix simply removes the flag and enables the application to correctly use full screen mode. App had problems handling the NULL return value from GetDlgItem. This SHIM maintains the previous non-NULL HWND and sends that to the app. App had hard-coded "C:\" which needed to be changed to the app's install drive. This shim can fix any Hoyle app with a similar problem. This shim goes through the app's image and replaces the hard-coded "C:\" in the '.DATA' section of the app's image with the install drive for the app. This app Creates a temporary file and tries creating it again repeatedly without closing the previously opened handle. This SHIM takes care of that issue by closing and deleting that file before trying to create it again. Delete IConfig.exe and IConfig.dll and remove a couple registry entries. This DLL fixes a problem with Internet Explorer's IE5DOM.EXE package. If the command line contains /n:v, the package will replace the 128-bit encryption modules that shipped with Win2K, which can cause serious harm - no one can log on to the machine. This shim simply removes /n:v from the command line so that the package does not replace the encryption DLLs. Used to add sites to their respective ‘Trusted’ or ‘Intranet’ zones. This is to mitigate some of the problems that the applications have due to IE Hardening. To add a website to a trusted zone : TrustedSites{http://aetech} To add a website to an intranet zone: TrustedIntranetSites{http://applogger} To pass multiple sites, simply OR each entry like: TrustedSites{http://aetech}|TrustedIntranetSites{http://applogger}|TrustedIntranetSites{\\applogger} Many Windows 9x applications were not programmed to respond to task switches caused by pressing Alt-Tab, the Windows key, Ctrl-Esc, or Alt-Esc. This compatibility fix disables those key presses. Note that Ctrl-Alt-Del cannot be ignored in Windows XP. Some applications test for the existence of a component using CoCreateInstance. If that component is incompatible, it may crash the application. This compatibility fix fails the CoCreateInstance call, thereby allowing an application to gracefully handle the error. The command line is a semi-colon delimited list of class ids of the form {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}. Prevent CRT shutdown routines from running. This compatibility fix causes the application to disregard any output sent to the OutputDebugString API. This type of debug information is generally not useful to an end-user and will only serve to slow application performance under Windows XP. This compatibility fix causes the application to ignore certain specified exceptions. By default, the only exceptions ignored are privileged mode instructions, but any exception can be ignored with this compatibility fix. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Some applications free DLLs that are still in use. If this occurs, and the offending application attempts to make a call to an exported function, the call fails with an access violation. This compatibility fix ignores calls to the FreeLibrary API using a list of DLLs to ignore. For example: USER32.DLL;GDI32.DLL. This compatibility fix intercepts calls to the RegisterClass API and changes the brush type to HOLLOW_BRUSH. This prevents the USER process from painting over application windows if it detects they are hung. This compatibility fix will prevent specified DLLs from being loaded by the LoadLibrary API. This may be useful for applications that have fallback mechanisms for features that are not supported. In addition, it reduces the error mode so library problems won't cause the system to generate an error dialog. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to the mciSendCommand API and ignores any MCI_STOP commands. MCI_STOP on Windows 9x has a relatively fast response time, but on Windows 2000 and Windows XP can take up to several seconds to respond. Applications that use this API in time-sensitive areas may experience performance issues. This compatibility fix intercepts calls to the MessageBox API and, based on the supplied command line, prevents the message box from being displayed. Many applications display a message box with debugging or other extraneous content that can be confusing to users. These are normally the result of differences between Windows 9x and Windows XP. This compatibility fix causes Windows XP to ignore irrelevant mode change requests from the application. This will prevent the mode uniqueness value from changing. If the mode uniqueness value changes, DirectDraw will reset all its objects even if the new mode is identical to the current mode. Installation programs that call the OemToCharA API on a string that is already ANSI may cause problems with DBCS user names. This compatibility fix ignores the call if it sees the temporary directory in ANSI format within the string. Some applications may call the ole32!OleUnitialize function in their DllMain. This worked on Windows 2000, but is no longer supported on Windows XP. This compatibility fix causes calls to ole32!OleUnitialize to be ignored. This compatibility fix is used to handle scheduling issues that may arise with applications, such as threads suspending or resuming themselves. It also normalizes all thread and process priorities that may starve other threads or processes. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix prevents system color changes made by applications that are not restored correctly after exit. Some TAPI applications do not correctly handle a disconnect message. This compatibility fix removes the disconnect message from the queue. Some VB apps try to store win32 handles in WORD size variables. On Win9x this works because most handles are 16-bit. However, on NT, the VB type checking code throws a "Runtime Error 6". The shim intercepts the type checking code and ignores the check. Some applications need to have zero width MoveWindow calls filtered out or it will fail an internal check. This shim picks up the LicDLL.DLL that was redirected to the windir folder by hooking the LoadLibrary call. Some applications may use dynamically loaded DLLs, which could potentially issue calls to static DLLs before the application is ready. This compatibility fix provides a workaround for this behavior by preloading the required static DLLs for the application. This compatibility fix takes a command line containing a list of the DLLs affected. They will be loaded in the order of the command line listing. This compatibility fix is similar to DelayDllInit, which works with statically loaded DLLs. InstallShield 6.x has a similar architecture to Microsoft's MSI. The UI portion of setup is done by an IKERNEL.EXE that runs in the current user's context. Then the 'work' stage (file copy, registry entry) is done by a worker process in the system context that is launched via DCOM. This makes the traditional matching mechanism useless because the process history chain is broken. This shim is applied to IKERNEL.EXE 6.0 globally. It looks for a CreateFileA call made to "data1.hdr", which is the most basic IS6 init file. This file is then used to do further matching on the particular IS6 package. If the database indicates that this package needs a shim, the InstallShield6 shim will use the dynamic shimming feature of the shim engine to add more shims to the process. When creating an EXE entry for the worker process of an IS6 package, use "data1.hdr" as the NAME attribute. App requires 16 bit window handles. Specific hack for Instant CD ISA setup needs some service calls to SharedAccess to succeed. This service doesn't exist on ADS anymore so we fake the returns to make ISA happy. ISA 2000 doesn't recognize the return code WSAEACCES. The shim forces WSAEADDRINUSE in place of WSAEACCES from WS2_32.DLL!WSAGetLastError. ISA Server 2000 needs hklm\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\mspfltex\start changed from 4 to 2. After calling GetDlgItemText we convert it to the short path. Eliminate some rundll32 installations of cabs for JavaVM. Add /nowin2kcheck flag to javatrig execution. Fail over a load of a bad icon file. This compatibility fix forces all windows to display (centered) on the correct monitor. It can be used to prevent windows from being moved off screen The explorer.exe doe not aware there is virtual CD there since the app load driver after explorer.exe launched and explorer.exe cached local driver info This shim broadcasts a WM_DEVICECHANGE message after the driver is loaded It's an application specific shim The app calls UnmapViewOfFile with a bogus address - an address that wasn't obtained from MapViewOfFile. We validate the address before calling UnmapViewOfFile. Checking if the administrator group SID is enabled in current process token. If it is enabled then we set the TokenOwner SID to administrator group SID. If it’s not then it does nothing. Some applications written for Windows 9x may expect to be able to use a device context that has already been released through a call to the ReleaseDC API. This compatibility fix delays the device context release by one call. App passes a .hlp without path. Winhlp32 can't locate the file because it's not in any of the locations that winhlp32 looks at. We pass in the file with full path. This compatibility fix limits the DEPTH, BRANCH, or number of FILES returned by a FindFile search. Limits fully qualified paths and optionally relative paths. The compatibility fix can optionally return short filenames. Command line usage is any combination of "DEPTH=#", "BRANCH=#", "FILES=#", "SHORTFILENAMES", "LONGFILENAMES", "LIMITRELATIVE", or "ALLOWRELATIVE". App cannot handle the last two technology flags of the MIDIOUTCAPS structure. This compatibility fix intercepts calls to the CreateWindow, DialogBox, and CreateDialog routines in order to ensure that Comctl32 version 5 is loaded. This means that applications will launch Comctl32 version 5 when linking to Shell32 and not by explicitly calling the API for their application. This compatibility attempts to emulate legacy behavior by loading from the current directory first. Application specific. This compatibility fix lowers thread and process priority if they are very high. This compatibility fix redirects files to %SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\username\LocalAppData\Redirected\drive\filepath when the application needs to write to them but doesn't have the appropriate access rights. This compatibility fix removes the redirected files that were written by the LUARedirectFS compatibility fix. This should be useful for uninstall programs. Applications may incorrectly attempt to write to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE portion of the registry. This compatibility fix redirects the registry keys to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive when the application doesn't have the necessary permissions. This compatibility fix works in conjunction with the LUARedirectReg fix. This compatibility fix removes the registry entries that are redirected by the LUARedirectReg fix. This compatibility fix should be used by uninstall programs. This compatibility fix determines the directories used by an application and records those directory names in a file. This information can be used to determine the changes required to make the application LUA compliant. Ignore ShellExecute which switches away from their app and messes with their bad synchronization logic. Some applications require that a block of memory be mapped at B0000 as it is on Windows 9x. This compatibility fix will map a block of memory at the B0000 address for the application. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Win9x relinquishes control to the thread with the WNDPROC if SendMessage is called on another thread. This shim calls Sleep(0) after SendMessage to give the WNDPROC a chance to execute. Also, add 4096 bytes to DX surfaces to workaround an app bug, whereby they write off the end of the screen causing heap corruption. Allocates pages at same address for successive VirtualAlloc / VirtualFree / VirtualAlloc calls. Redirect SM_C?FULLSCREEN to SM_C?SCREEN so that their cover window covers the taskbar. Without this, task bar artifacts will show through during gameplay. Application specific. Returns 0x1E0 from all successful BitBlts, as that is the value MW2 expects. Ignores requests to suspend the current thread. The app has a bogus check to determine the CPU speed. On faster machines (>2Ghz), it will hang for several minutes. This shim fakes the timer return codes and bypass the check. The app doesn't do their painting on WM_PAINT and then calls DefWndProc when they do get a WM_PAINT, which causes a WM_ERASEBKGND to be sent. The app fails to register the registration files it creates during setup. This is fixed by registering the files with regedt32.exe Registry stuff has moved around since NT 4. This shim adds several values to make the app recognize the new location. Add a new decrypt function so encryption is automatically upgraded to 128-bit. Add a new decrypt function so encryption is automatically upgraded to 128-bit. Applications may still be storing data in INI files instead of using the registry. This is a generic compatibility fix to move INI data into the registry. The compatibility fix is command line driven. This compatibility fix intercepts calls made to ExitWindowsEx, waits for DLL_PROCESS_DETACH, and then moves the contents of the [Rename] section of wininit.ini into the registry via MoveFileEx(). MSAccess 2000 disable IME for the non text column but failing enable IME when user move the caret into text column with non IME keyboard ex.German. When user switch keyboard from ex.German to IME, IME is disabled and user cannot input Far East language text. This shim disregard the attempt to disable IME. The problem is fixed in MSAccess 2002. MSDev's menus do not behave correctly when the system color for menu does not match the system color for Button face. This compatibility fix forces a match. Makes ShellExecuteExW and ShellExecuteW expand the ENVIRONMENT variables. Buffer the NumberOfBytesRead parameter due to stack corruption like issue. Ignores Exception caused by ReleaseStgMedium of OLE32.DLL. App expects the pointer that is sent by SetWindowText to reach it's window proc unchanged. However, NT allocates it's own copy of the string. This would not normally be a problem, but the string it's sending contains multiple strings (like a multi-string). The fix is to catch the message generated by SetWindowText and change the pointer to the one that was originally sent. Invalid calls to CString::SetAt now throw an exception to prevent a potential buffer overrun. This shim ignores these calls. Clean up the stack after SCM calls ServiceMain as the ServiceMain registered by the app doesn't follow stdcall conventions. Writes required javascript to handle versions of IE greater than 5.x to corpwiz_loader.html file Maps the error value ERROR_PARTIAL_COPY returned by EnumProcessModules to ERROR_NOACCESS, which is the value returned by NT4 and the App. only knows to handle ERROR_NOACCESS. for mciSendCommand , NT behaves differently with win9x on that when there is no CD in the CDROM, issuing mciSendCommand will cause the app exclusive control over the CDROM, and when new CD inserted, the app will not receive a WM_DEVICECHANGE message. This Shim is to hook MCI_OPEN command and verify if media is not in CDROM, just close this MCI device. Incorrect usage of synchronization objects causes bad dependencies on launcher start. Reads past the end of files that it's copied into memory - we fix this by adjusting the appropriate allocation. GetVersionExA Returns 9x platform id once we are past the safedisk check. App crashes on exit: recognize the exit sequence and kill the app silently. If an application passes an invalid window handle to the MessageBox API, and the lower 16 bits of that handle are NULL, Windows 9x treats it as the desktop (because window handles are only 16 bit on Windows 9x). On Windows XP, since the full 32 bits are used, the call to MessageBox would fail. This compatibility fix intercepts the MessageBox API and determines if the window handle that was passed is a valid handle. If it is not valid, it is set to NULL. This shim fix regression bug from Win 2K regarding complex script showing problem, e.g. Reversed BiDi text. Win XP LPK changed to text having extra space is not handled as Complex Script. Shim removes ExtraSpace set in SetTextCharacterExtra() makes ExtTextOutW() works well with Complex Script text. Return a shell command for launching WORDPAD.EXE that doesn't have spaces. We return the wrong path, but CorrectFilePaths can fix it up. Fix the path and args passed to ShellExecuteExA because we changed the default file assocations for .bmp files. Custom action returns invalid error code. Shim it to correct error code. Ignore a specific file name in the PendingFileRenameOperations key. Minor change in shell exposed an untested codepath. Japanese Outlook98 setup on English build with japanese locale, compares the language information of shell32.dll and setup file. This shim lies about the language of the outlook98 setup file and returns English, though its language version is Japanese. Outlook2000 is calling to set the system date to Hebrew while the associated UserLocale is passed in the call as Arabic. The shim will replace the UserLocale with DefaultUserLocale as the first parameter of SetLocaleInfo. Application specific. Applications may be unable to correctly track palette changes across a mode change. This issue typically manifests itself as color corruption. It's fairly easy for an application to run into this problem, because all palette state is lost during a mode change on Windows XP. This compatibility fix helps the application to track all palette changes and maintain them through mode changes. PanzerCommander's Readme is a DOC file with a .txt extension. They open the file with Notepad, which gladly displays the data in hex. On Win95, the file is too large for Notepad, so it prompts to use write instead. Force the application to use write instead of notepad. Ignore PostQuitMessage so control panel applet does not kill Explorer.exe. Petz 3 and 4 create a thread to do their dsound play using the _beginthread call via MSVCRT. The thread ends without releasing the critical section it has entered. This very app specific shim hooks the endthread implicitly called via Crt and tags on a ReleaseCriticalSection. Picky Eater AVs when it tries to handle the WM_PALETTECHANGED message. The fix is to swallow the message if the hWnd is NULL. Replace HWND_TOPMOST with HWND_TOP. Plane Crazy install needed to get a WM_PAINT on WM_SETFOCUS This shim hooks all dialog/window call backs and does just that. This compatibility fix populates HKEY_CURRENT_USER with the necessary default registry settings for the application. This will enable various applications that write these keys at install time to run for other users. Fixes an infinite loop in 3M's Post-It Notes application by preventing the WM_TIMECHANGE message from reaching the Post-It Notes windows when the application triggers a time change using SetTimeZoneInformation(). Upon app load detection, the HKCU reg entries are filled with some necessary data, if missing. The necessary data happens to be an ODBC datasource which should have been installed as a System DSN or under HKLM, instead of a User DSN or under HKCU. Power Plus screensaver bundled with Lotus Super Office 2000 Japanese could not launch Configure dialog on Whistler. The desk.cpl behavior of launching screensaver is changed a bit on Whistler. This shim hack the GetCommandLine(A,W) and enable to run. Remove the readonly attribute on mfcans32.dll which is turned on for some HP systems. This shim hooks the CreateProcessA to detaly the return for 5 seconds. Some applications use the USERPROFILE environment variable to find the location of the user’s directory. This would limit the usage of the application to only the user that performed the install. This compatibility fix returns the ALLUSERSPROFILE instead, so that the application will be available for all users after install. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix applies to applications that use the shell32 SHGetFolderPath APIs to find the Start Menu, Programs, or Startup directories. This compatibility fix returns the common path so that the application will be available for all users after install. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 Some applications attempt to directly read the "Shell Folders" values in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER, which would return the folders for the user performing the install. This compatibility fix returns the common path so that the application will be available for all users of the computer after install. Applies to: Windows 95, Windows 98 This compatibility fix sets the __PROCESS_HISTORY environment variable enabling any child processes to look in their parent's directory for matching information. This is typically needed when a 32-bit unpacker creates a temporary executable that needs to have a compatibility fix applied to it. Application specific. Application specific. App passes invalid string pointer to lstrcmpiA function. This shim fixes this app problem. App incorrectly subclasses out-of-proc hwnds. This shim fixes this app problem. Handle bad pointers to lstrcmpiA. This compatibility fix accepts a command line that tells it to re-copy a file from the CD. Some applications truncate some NULL bytes from an executable image. This worked under Windows 9x because there was no image validation. However, Windows XP performs image validation on files and will fail if the image size changes. This compatibility fix redirects the DBCS temp path to the SBCS temp path. With a DBCS user name logon, the temp path contains a DBCS path. Some applications handle a DBCS temp path correctly. This compatibility fix calls WinExec on the passed command line, and then terminates the caller process. The command line can contain any environment variables that need to be passed to the executable. If the command line starts with a '+', the app directory is added to the path. Some applications may have difficulty adjusting to the differences in folder structure between Windows 9x and Windows XP. For applications that use the GetWindowsDirectory API call, this compatibility fix will intercept those calls and redirect them through the GetSystemDirectory API instead. This compatibility fix applies to applications that may not correctly handle broadcast messages to their window process. The compatibility fix will intercept and remove any such broadcast message. Some applications call ShellExecute which in turn calls ShellExecuteEx. One of the flags in the SHELLEXECUTEINFO structure is SEE_MASK_FLAG_DDEWAIT. This flag gets set by ShellExecuteEx as a default whenever ShellExecute is called. When the flag gets passed, it can sometimes cause synchronzation problems. This compatibility fix resolves the issue by removing the SEE_MASK_FLAG_DDEWAIT flag. This compatibility fix removes any invalid window styles from calls made to the CreateWindowEx API. Invalid window styles in this case refer to any window style not supported by Windows XP. This compatibility fix provides a modified version of CreateProcess, which will remove IP from the MsInfo command line. This will cause MsInfo on Windows XP behave as it did on Windows NT 4 (with the option to have MsInfo print a blank page instead of showing system info). This modified version of the kernel32!CreateFile* APIs prevents an application from using the FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING flag if the application doesn't use it correctly. This modified version of the kernel32!CreateFile* APIs prevents an application from using the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED flag if the application doesn't handle it correctly. This could perhaps be rolled into a layer shim: Win9x ignores this flag for disk types. This compatibility fix will remove the Read-Only attribute from all directories. This may be helpful to applications that don’t expect the shell folders to be set to Read-Only. Some applications that use the SetSystemCursor() function to restore the system cursor may encounter problems in Windows 2000 or Windows XP. This compatibility fix resolves the problem so that the system cursors are restored correctly. The name of the TCP loopback adapter was changed from MS Loopback Adapter to Microsoft Loopback Adapter. Resonate looks for the old name. This was calling LoadLibraryA with a hard coded path C:\windows\system during the ActiveX controls registration. Corrected to get the right path. Calling GetDIBits(..., DIB_PAL_COLORS) is very slow. This shim forces the usage to DIB_RGB_COLORS, which is quite speedy, however the format of the pixels is incorrect, but when the app is actually getting the bits from a DrawText() call the bits are typically black and the foreground color. Replace Risk II's two cursors with copies of the system arrow and hourglass cursors that are hardware cursors and won't flicker. This app tries to manage it's own window minimize code on NT because it thinks it's on Win31. A version lie causes other problems so this shim forces ddraw to manage the window. Ingnore the first call to NdrProxySendReceive if the ProcNum is 0x8013. This prevents the RPC call from raising an exception because it's being called from an ASYNC callback. The error it would normally return would be RPC_E_CANTCALLOUT_INASYNCCALL. If it raises an exception, the app dies. No idea why this works on 9X. Designed to fix versions of SafeDisc apps that are broken by our BBT process. Basically, they try and validate kernel32, but don't take into account that some parts of the binary can be moved around. This shim takes as a command line the API in KERNEL32 to overwrite with a jump table. The API must be before the export directory and not otherwise used by SafeDisc. This shim directs the install to look in the _InstallTo16 and _InstallFrom16 sections of setup.inf instead of _InstallFrom32 and _InstallTo32. This is needed because the application tries to use a 16-bit DLL during gameplay which is allowed in Win9x but produces errors under Whistler. This compatibility fix will intercept calls to the SearchPath API and modifies the command to also search the shell’s App Paths registry key. This compatibility fix enables the application to set specific environment variables at application startup. These variables are provided through a command line, and multiple environment variables in the list should be separated by a pipe (|). Apps copy-protection expects the CPU direction flag to be maintained over calls to certain kernel APIs like WaitForSingleObject, SetEvent and ResetEvent. The shim stores and restores this flag before and after each call. A fix for the installer which directly parses win.ini for locale information. Shockwave location in HKCU registry is only accessible by installed user. This shim creates Shockwave location entry in HKCU registry for non install users. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings shim does not always work 'cause location includes system directory and cannot be a static registry data. VirtualRegistry shim Redirector does not work 'cause sw70inst.exe does not use Reg API and use SWDIR.INF to set HKCU data during the install. This compatibility fix fixes problems with any application that uses the Shrinker resource compression library. This library hacks resource functions in ntdll and kernel32 and redirect calls into their own function routines. But Ntdll code has different opcodes in Windows XP. The program failed to find the opcode signature and decided to cancel WriteProcessMemory call to write their redirection. Because of this, the necessary decompression of program code and resources were not executed and caused access violation. Shrinker compatibility fix resolves this by providing necessary opcode signature so the app could write those redirection into ntdll. Makes a bad call to both CreateSemaphoreA and InitializeSecurityDescriptor, both in really odd and specific ways that are unlikely to recur. Incorrect use of the IDataObject for clipboard pasting causes objects to be wrongly sized. This shim cleans up the bad parameters on IDataObject::GetData. Set single processor affinity for apps that have multi-proc bugs. Fails the GetProcAddress call to get the fuction address for DirectDrawCreateEx from DDRAW.DLL A dll tries to take the AfxResourceLock during its DllMain (while holding the loader lock), this is the wrong order for the locks and causes a deadlock. This shim takes the AfxResourceLock prior to the dll being loaded so that it gets the loader lock secondly, which is the correct order. We must include all modules since any module could load the bad dll. Application specific. App hangs because it tries to do too much in a DLLMain. Fixed by effectively delaying the entry-point call until after the LoadLibrary in question. App requires ChangeDisplaySettings to persist, even after it exits. Many APIs use much more stack space on NT than Win9x. This compatibility fix is command line driven and takes a list of APIs that will be hooked, making them use no stack. The format the command line is "MODULENAME!APINAME[:X]; MODULENAME!APINAME[:X] ..." where X is 0 : fill old stack with zeroes 1 : fill old stack with pointers 2 : fill old stack with pointers to pointers by default, no stack filling occurs. Hook RegisterClassExA and check if the lpfnWndProc is NULL, provide a defaul WndProc so that it will not AV in user32.dll, This should be added to EmulateUser layer(it contains RegisterClassA). but it's too risky now This is app specific shim Call to GetTempPathA is not getting enough buffer and it is returning some garbage value. So GetTempFileNameA fails. This hooked API, GetTempPathA returns a constant string "%temp%". GetTempFileNameA expands the environment variable ("%temp%") and returns a valid path name. Application doesn't correctly recognize 3dFX. The application attempts to convert the path to the executable into the directory containing the executable by replacing the last \ in the path with NULL. Unfortunately, they start not at the end of the string, but at the max length of the string. On Win9x the extra memory doesn't (coincidentally) have a \, so the proper string is passed as the CWD to CreateProcessA. On Whistler, the extra memory contains a \ so they end up changing nothing. Application specific. This compatibility fix takes a semi-colon delimited command line of filenames. At process termination, the DLL will extract each filename from the command line and make sure that the file exists in both the System directory and System32 (if it exists in either). Some older applications expect certain DLLs to be in System when under NT they belong in System32 (and vice versa). Application does not properly restore the stack for Service control routines. Show Taskbar and Start Menu Properties dialog. This compatibility fix terminates an executable (.EXE) immediately upon launch. 3D Jungle Train kept an old pointer to a released DirectSound object. This shim never releases the first DirectSound object and then returns the old pointer as the result of creating new DirectSound objects so that the stale pointer is always current. This shim replaces the command line with the short filename version of arg 1. Workaround for GDI behavior difference when bltting palettized bitmaps. On Win9x GDI first looked at the current index for a color match when building a lookup table, but on NT, it simply searches from the beginning. This breaks palette animation. The fix is to make sure that the entries that are animated are different from all the others. Tracks registry leaks. External shim DLL. The file midimap.cfg is present in a few systems in %windir%\system32 but not at all present on a few. The app Treasure Cove! looks for this and complains if not found. This SHIM fakes the return value for _lopen when the file is 'midimap.cfg'. This compatibility fix trims file and product version resource strings so that they are identical to the Win2000 structure. Hooks CreateFileA and CreateFileW to redirect some files to TS specified per-user directory. On win9x it was possible to Unlock a surface implicitly locked by GetDC. This fakes the DirectDraw DC with a GDI DIBSection. Ignores GETINFO!GetProcessorSpeed. Clean up bad CAPS bits sent to IDirectDraw7::CreateSurface. It's not clear how this ever worked, since it's broken on Win98 SE as well. This applies to their latest patch: 1.18F, earlier versions didn't have this problem. Game expects memory allocations to be in the same place over time. Fix overcomes this by caching system memory surfaces. App will delete files under %WINDIR%\Resource, such as theme files. This shim hides these files from its file search. UnInstallShield has an insidious bug where it calls WaitForSingleObject on the HINSTANCE returned by ShellExecute. Since an HINSTANCE is not an actual HANDLE, the WaitForSingleObject behaviour was completely random and in some cases caused UnInstallShield to hang. The fix is to change the HINSTANCE returned from ShellExecute to 0x0BADF00D and then look for it being passed in to WaitForSingleObject. If found, WAIT_OBJECT_0 is returned immediately to prevent deadlock. PictureIt 2001 checks if the system is localized then mirror the thumbnails. Game movie playing loop gets starved because it's continually trying to remove too high-resolution timer messages from the queue. This shim decreases the timer resolution. This app sychronizes it's video playback with cli/sti combinations. The fix is to trap these exceptions and do the synchronization correctly with ddraw. We also ignore overflow errors during gameplay. Disregard unnecessary mute settings. Remove unnecessary riched20.dll and riched32.dll. Calling lineNegotiateAPIVersion with device 0 is failing. Change parameter from device 0 to device 1. This API appears to be in flux, since this has regressed several times. Hooks all the registry functions to allow virtual keys, redirection and expansion values. Remove write access on OpenFile if it fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. This works around a regression caused by the tightening of security on the root directory from Win2k. Replace app's mydll.dll's problemetic IsAdmin() with the one provided in PSDK. This is app's specific shim Application specific. Forces the application to use the WAVE_MAPPER device instead of device 0. It is only safe to apply this compatibility fix to applications that (incorrectly) attempt to open device 0 expecting to open the default device. App causes an AV when Spell Check All is selected from the menu. The app passes in an uninitialized POINT structure in a call to ScreenToClient API. The API call fails, however the app is using the structure data resulting in an AV. Fixed it by zeroing out the structure if the API call fails. This DLL hooks the CreateProcess API to provide layer propagation feature on Windows 2000 and provides for compatibility fixes and layers to be used with 16-bit applications This DLL hooks the GetVersion* APIs to provide Windows 2000 credentials Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 95 version credentials. Applications often check to ensure that they are running on a Win9x system, even though they will run OK on an NT based system. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 98 version credentials. Applications often check to ensure that they are running on a Win9x system, even though they will run OK on an NT based system. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 2000 SP1 version credentials. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 2000 SP2 version credentials. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 2000 SP3 version credentials. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows 2000 version credentials. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows XP version credentials. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows XP SP1 version credentials. This compatibility fix hooks WinExec if COMMAND_LINE == "nowait" calls CreateProcess without waiting for the created process If COMMAND_LINE is a number, it Sleep()s the process in hook initialization for that number of ms. Otherwise, it simply calls the standard WinExec Application specific. Hooks GetModuleFileName and parses the return string. WinG32 will post a messagebox and fail if it finds that it is not installed in system32. Hooks the GetVersion and GetVersionEx APIs so that they return Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 5 version credentials. Disables user-tracking balloon tips, since the balloon tips stay up during the unattended run, and interfere with WinStone's counting of application windows, and leads to undesirable results. So disable user-tracked balloon tips when WinStone99 is running, and enable them once WinStone99 is finished running. If the SafeArray pointer in the SafeArrayAccessData() is an invalid one this function returns a NULL pointer for the data. Corel WordPerfect8 was AV'ing because of this.CorelWordPerfect SHIM fixes this issue by returning an ERROR CODE when the data pointer is NULL. Application specific. Shim prevents an internal reference count used by the Grammar Checker from becoming negative by not allowing Add/Release to be called more than once for the life of the interface. WordPerfect 2002 Presentation 10 looks for error 0x43 return from WNetAddConnection. This return value has been replaced with 0x4b3 The app looks for registry keys which are not present as the setup fails to create the required registry entries or creates corrupted entries. This shim creates the required registry entries the app looks for, if the entries are missing/corrupted in the registry. Application specific. Full-screen AVI playing isn't properly supported on NT. These guys do palette animation and fullscreen playback: it just doesn't work. We hack them to allow a smaller playback window which is supported. This shim reverts WM_IME_CHAR's WPARAM's 1st byte and 2nd byte It's application specific shim Install program changes the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\Path registry key from a REG_EXPAND_SZ to REG_SZ key. Replaces all privileged instructions with no-operation instructions.

The mci code gets very upset when the following sequence happens: SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); mciSendCommand(1, MCI_PLAY, ...); SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); The last two calls cause mci to put up an error dialog since the avi is already playing. So the patch below simply nop's out the function that makes the two MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE calls after we already told the window to play. ff 77 04 8b d8 ff 15 f0 3d 56 00 6a 00 ff 75 04 68 7f 04 00 00 ff 76 78 ff 15 6c 46 56 00 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 - MSO9.DLL!MsoTHKLIME() checks IME hkl by 0xE0000000 instead of calling ImmIsIME().

If set, a DCOM Free-Threaded-Marshaled Object has its' stub parked in the apartment that the object is marshaled from instead of the Neutral-Apartment. Having to set this bit indicates a busted App that is not following the rules for FTM objects. The app probably has other subtle problems that NT 4 or Win9x didn't show. Blindly using the ATL wizard to enable using the FTM is usually the source of the bug. In Windows XP, we have changed foreground semantics to stop foreground focus stealing by one app if another application is active. However, this has caused a few application compatibility bugs. This appcompat flag is used to enable the old foreground focus behaviour for these bugs. If there is a request for MS Shell Dlg (which usually maps to MS Sans Serif (bitmap) on NT 4 and Microsoft Sans Serif (TrueType) on NT 5), then behave as though we are using the bitmap font (MS Sans Serif).

Internal - Allows the Windows Application Compatibility Toolkit ver 2.5 to install on Windows Server 2003 - Corrects the Version problem with the setup for this app. - The setup has a bad launch condition in its MSI package. This caused the app to fail on Whistler. - Corrects the codepage of the database (and the strings) to properly handle JPN - The wrongly authored languageID was modified. - The wrongly authored languageID was modified. - Need a transform to add Component table,Feature, FeatureComponent and Directory table for IE5.msi to work with WI 2.0 - Application has a bad version # for msvcp60.dll authored in its Windows installer package. It lists a version # there as 6.0.17793.0, which makes it look newer then what the system has, which is version 6.0.8168.0. It actually includes the correct version, it's just not authored correctly. So now that msvcp60.dll is protected the install fails because it appears it wants to install a newer system file. This file was not protected in win2k but is protected in Whistler. - Allows Install Shield Express 4.0 to install all needed compontents on server 2003. - Removes the OS check which is not necessary on XP and beyond. - This app installs mfc42loc.dll irrespective of the locale and this was causing problems in Wordpad etc... - IE 5.5 installation condition was wrong. They had an OR condition instead of an AND which caused the condition to be TRUE even though the setup was able to determine the true version of IE and the OS correctly. This transform corrects that condition. - The install package's LaunchCondition for NT is either 4 or 5. We change it to simply match all NT versions. - The original .MSI package has an invalid record in its Directory table, that has the E_|E: string in its DefaultDir column. This causes the source directory tree generation to fail. The invalid entry is removed. - Remove the not needed font file. - Prevents the MSI package from deleting HKLM\Software\ODBC - Needed a transform to fix the installation of IE 5.5. 천리안2000 Plus Tri270 키보드 유틸리티 새롬 팩스맨 98 Intel 프로세서 일련 번호 제어 유틸리티 하드웨어 모니터 매직인터넷 자이젠 매직인터넷 매직키보드 3.5 매직키보드 II 매직119 매직서비스 센터 Magic 119+ 안철수연구소 하우리 스페이스 인터내셔널 삼성전자 DMITOOL Video-outユーティリティ NECパソコンをご使用の方は必ずお読みください おたより書院Ver1.0 パソコンナビ2000 Power書院 アニメdeフォト Ver1.x ちょbit３D EVAアニメータ EVAビューアVer1.0 Mailist Ver2.x Power E/J、ここだけ翻訳、翻訳（＋辞書）これ一本 インターネット快速便Ver2.1 インターネット新着便 MD-PC リンク for Mebius V1.01 ﾒﾋﾞｳｽ･ｵﾝﾗｲﾝﾕｰｻﾞ登録 おたより＠メイムVer1.5 パソコンナビ2001リッキーくん パソコンナビ2001ＴＶリッキーくん USB接続カメラ用カメラビューア Mebius ｉモードパーク ページデザイナーVer1.0 シャープ プレインストール アプリケーション IBMイージーボタン ノートブックマネージャ ViaVoice ミレニアム DIONかんたん設定ツール GAMEPACK for TOSHIBA（ばばぬき） 一発チェンジャ 簡単インターネット PC診断ツール People サインアップナビ So-netサインアップ The 翻訳インターネット 東芝LIVE MEDIA 東芝音声システム 東芝 プレインストール アプリケーション 東芝ユーティリティ(Fn-esse) MOS/MOUシリーズユーティリティ Disk Formatter ばりばりバックアップ ばりばりインターネット（SpeedSurfer） ばりばりかんたん接続（Modem Wizard） ばりばりワンタッチ（ShortCuts） エンカルタ 総合大百科 2001 ロボワード WebBooster Ninja McAfee VirusScan NT ウイルスバスター2000 ウイルスバスター2001 Norton Internet Security 2001 ViaVoice 98 ウイルスバスター9x ウイルスバスター2000 CD革命 Virtual ウイルスバスター9x for NT PhotoDeluxe for ビジネス ウイルスバスターコーポレートエディション アイワ PV-BW5610 アイワ USB ドライバ アイワ TA ユーティリティ 富士通/日成電機 USB ISDN TA ドライバ NEC Aterm シリーズ NTT東日本/NTT西日本 INS メイト シリーズ Panasonic DVD-RAM ドライバ 翻訳ピカイチ バイリンガル V3 for Windows （ワンタッチ） PhotoDeluxe for ファミリー ナムコヒストリー VOL.2 アダプテックジャパン株式会社 アドビ システムズ株式会社 エー・アイ・ソフト株式会社 株式会社ドコモAOL アップルコンピュータ株式会社 株式会社アーク情報システム オートデスク株式会社 シトリックス・システムズ・ジャパン株式会社 シスコシステムズ株式会社 コンパックコンピュータ株式会社 コンピュータ・アソシエイツ株式会社 クリエイティブメディア株式会社 エレクトロニック･アーツ･スクウェア株式会社 日本ゲートウェイ株式会社 日本アイ・ビー・エム株式会社 株式会社アイフォー 株式会社ジャストシステム コダック株式会社 株式会社インターコム 株式会社リキッドオーディオ・ジャパン ロータス株式会社 日本ネットワークアソシエイツ株式会社 株式会社メディアヴィジョン 株式会社メディアヴィジョン マイクロソフト株式会社 株式会社ナムコ 日本電気株式会社 日本ネットワークアソシエイツ株式会社 ノベル株式会社 株式会社フジテレビフューチャネット 株式会社ネットジャパン シャープ株式会社 ソニー株式会社 ソニーコミュニケーションネットワーク株式会社 株式会社シマンテック 株式会社テクノクラフト 株式会社東芝 トレンドマイクロ株式会社 ヤマハ株式会社 ドラゴンシステムズ株式会社 株式会社ワイ・イー・データ オントラック事業部 レルナウト・アンド・ホスピー・ジャパン株式会社 ユーマックスジャパン株式会社 トレンドマイクロ株式会社 株式会社 ビー・エイチ・エー アイワ ロキシオジャパン株式会社 株式会社ノヴァ Rollercoaster Tycoon - Looping en folie Rollercoaster Tycoon - Nouvelles Attractions Encyclopédie Encarta 2001 Lecteur Windows Media 7 Enciclopedia Encarta 2001 Norton SystemWorks 1.0 und 2.0 Norton 2000 und 2001 Software Norton AntiVirus 4.x und 5.x Norton Navigator für Windows 95 Norton Utilities 2.0 für Windows NT - Applying PropagateProcessHistory to all SETUP.EXEs to avoid hundreds of entries in the database - Ported all the old apps that use the ntvdm compat flags. Added MODULE_ to NAME for multiple EXE tags. - Ported all the old apps that use the user compat flags. - Added MATCH_MODE="ADDITIVE" to EXEs not already including the attribute. - This is an apphelp entry for automation testing only. Nonclient theming: Lotus SmartSuite component: app-rendered nonclient area incompatible with themes. - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Added another entry for 123w.exe to handle higher version. - Expanded entry to include 9.7 - Populate reg keys to other users who did not install the app. - This is INTL version app. - Apps requires HideDisplayModes on some adapters that have large mode tables - All use the same engine - Severe error--Requires NT4 SP or higher. Fixed with win95versionlie - DirectX version error on launch. App wont launch. Fixed with Hidedisplaymodes and win95versionlie - Cursor appearing after a mode change fixed by repositioning it on SetCursor - Poor user experience while task switching fixed by IgnoreAltTab - Bogus mode changes fixed by IgnoreNoModeChange - The application would abort installation of the landscape package stating that a service pack needed to be install to run the application. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the problem. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - Install needed a version lie to continue. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE compat flag. - 16 bit executables removed: Setup.exe (WinNT4Sp5VersionLie replaced with WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE) - Modified the matching information of setup to match apps with SKU#10008187 and 10014194. - Install needed a version lie to continue. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE compat flag. WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE was modified to take a command line - Version error during setup of Imagine your Landscape Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users during Imagine your Landscape setup Fixed with ProfilesSetupLayer - Version error during setup of Best Selling Home Plans Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users during Best Selling Home Plans setup Fixed with ProfilesSetupLayer - Version error on CD 3 no longer fixed by WinNT4SP5VersionLie due to it being a 16-bit installer Removed XML for CD 3 - CD4 searches for user.exe in %windir%\system which needs to be redirected to %windir%\system32 - App has heap problems - Uninitialized variables require IgnoreException - App calls GlobalAlloc more than 64K times with the GMEM_MOVEABLE flag set. - Fix turns off this flag if GlobalAlloc fails. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapIgnoreMoveable -> EmulateHeap - During install the application would state that it does not run under NT. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - Also during installation the application tries to install DirectX and states that it cannot install under NT. Win95VersionLie also takes care of this. - App kept stale pointer to DirectSound object after object was released. Wrote 3dJungleTrain.dll to refuse to release DirectSound object and point requests for new DirectSound objects to old one. - Virtual Registry b/c W2k denies RegOpenKeyEx with samDesired of 0. Passing zero works on Win9x and Whistler without shim. - Galaxy Online installation was creating desktop link in %windir%\desktop, not Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop - Added matching information for CD and setup.exe - App complaint user must have DX 5.0 or greater and must be installed on 9x system. Win95VersionLie can handle this. - Selected better matching files - Galaxy Online setup hard codes incorrect path to tvml.exe into registry. - EnumDisplaySettings (called by DDraw::EnumDisplayModes) on Win9x returns about 12 entries; Whistler returns about 130, running off the end of the app's buffer. - App changes thread priority, keep it at normal. - DX version error on launch Fixed with HideDisplayModes and Win98VersionLie - Loosened matching info slightly to catch another SKU - ported from Win2k - Updated matching information - After upgrading from Win9x to WinXP the application's hardware lock drivers are lost. Reinstalling the application reinstalls the drivers. - Modified the matching information to include both versions 3.0 and 3.1. - This app creates a window during its Splash!DllInit. If the Far East language support is active, this will endup calling ADVAPI32 which isn't initialized yet. Fix is to skip Splash!DllInit until SHIM_STATIC_DLLS_LOADED. - Modified the section value from REINSTALL to REINSTALL_NOLINKREQUIRED to list the app under REINSTALL section of the Migration report under CHS Win-Me environment. - This application does not function properly when migrated from Win9x to Whistler. The following entries add the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, the shortcut will point to a linkstub and inform the user that the application must be reinstalled before it will launch. - Added another ie4setup entry for a slightly different version for 3D Ultra Minigolf. - App thinks it should only run under 95 - use Win95VersionLie to fix this. - App uses midiOutGetDevCaps to check if the machine can play midi or wave but since it incorrectly passed 0xffff (instead of -1) as the device ID for the MIDI mapper the calls to midiOutGetDevCaps and midiOutOpen fail so it thinks the sound can't be played - use CorrectSoundDeviceId to fix this. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - With Luna on the Seirra online setup screen is permantly minimized and wont install the game. Fixed by applying WOWCF2_FIXLUNATRAYRECT. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - App Does not launch ReadMe at end of setup. - Fixed with HandleRegExpandSzRegistryKeys shim. - App is not added to Add/Remove Programs. - Fixed with Win98VersionLie shim. - App produced "Application may not function in NT" error - Win 95 version lie takes care of the error - App AV'ed when trying to print with line drawing on. This was caused by user abort proc being a _cdecl but being called as a _stdcall. - use EmulateCDFS so app can access its question database on the CD - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - App stops responding on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Application quits after demo completes. - Uses Start.exe which doesn't exist in NT, changed to promote the 1st parameter and the rest of the parameters in parameter list. - Shimming winhlp32.exe too risky: removing EXE_LINK. - Leaving this entry in for tracking purposes only - DX version error. Fixed with Win98versionlie. - 3 Peak Space Cards fails to install if > 2GB are free - Fixed by EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - App produced "Application may not function in NT" error - Win 95 version lie takes care of the error - The version lie was not being applied due to the matching info not matching. PropagateProcessHistory was needed to provide the correct path for matching. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Removed Filesize and Checksums - The bug has to do with not being able to do multiplayer which upon my testing worked as it should but I found that the app crashed on exit. The app is executing a privileged mode instruction which is causing the crash. The app is releasing DX from a different thread and it also happens to be setting a thread's priority to other than normal. - Intro video pauses and loops when played on dual proc machines Fixed with SingleProcAffinity - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - This app is no longer supported by the vendor. The first entry adds it to the list of apps that should be removed (uninstalled) before migrating from Win9x to Whistler. The second entry hardblocks the installation of the app under Whistler. - Added another entry for setup that was not being caught. - App produced "Text Property is read only" error. This is fixed with WinNT4SP5VersionLie. - The installation detects that the OS isn't Win95 and produces a warning message. This is taken care of by Win95VersionLie. - During installation the application tries to install DirectX and produces errors. This is taken care of by ForceDXSetupSuccess. - After installation the user is prompted to reboot, but nothing happens unless they choose not to reboot. EnableRestarts allows the user to reboot after installation. - During gameplay if the StickyKeys accessibility shortcut is active the application dumps out to the desktop when shift, the jump key, is pressed 5 consecutive times. DisableStickyKeys temporarily disables the option at DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH and re-enables the option at DLL_PROCESS_DETACH. - During game play if the user alt tabs to the desktop the application errors and terminates. This is repro Win98 but it seems better to avoid this situation if possible. IgnoreAltTab takes care of this situation. - During installation the application puts the start menu items into the specific user's directory. CorrectFilePaths places the items in the All Users directory. - App needs a simple window to prevent CreateWindowEx failure. - App crashes if you Alt-Tab out, prevent this nastyness. - New IgnoreAltTab shim now automatically applies DisableStickyKeys and DisableFilterKeys. - Removed DisableStickyKeys shim. - App identifies NT as Win95. Win95VersionLie handles this. - App setup installs program group and icons in current user profile. ProfilesSetup fixes this. - ported from Win2k - Shortcuts not created for all users fixed with correctfilepaths - Disregard disable IME - Stack corruption fixed by StackSwap - Added apphelp. Security tab is missing from IIS. - ported from Win2k - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - The space in the application path was not handled correctly. This was fixed by modifying EmulateGetCommandLine. - Program tries to setup a printer incorrectly, EmulatePrinter fixes the problem. - App hogs com port and doesn't allow other users to access it with FUS. - Version error during install Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX error during install Fixed ForceDXSetupSuccess - shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath - App would fail to start due to usage of uninitialized pointer on the stack - Versions 4 and 4.05 need to be reinstalled after migration. It's not possible to print to Acrobat's print capture drivers and create a PDF unless the application is reinstalled. - make it work under LUA. - Version 5 of acrobat has problems when doing Fast User Switching. The app recieves a WM_DISPLAYCHANGE message and ends up resizing its window improperly in an attempt to make sure that the window is on the screen. We ignore calls to SetWindowPos on toplevel windows when the parameters are bogus. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Heap problems fixed with EmulateHeap - This is listed as a Win2k regression, but it is just randomly exposed - It was still AV'ing because memory allocated thru EmulateHeap was passed to GDI32.DLL. Fixed by including GDI32.DLL. - This is a bit random but never AV'ed after including GDI32.DLL - Correcting the launch condition so that the app does not complain about Windows XP. - Carolyn Napier from MSI team helped in getting this fix out - Needed a custom action shim as they were messing with the MSI API's with bad parameters in their custom action DLL. - Custom action shim needed to fix 2 other conditions. The setup was not causing any error but the app was having problems because of this. The portion of the setup which wrote the serial number and the userinfo was causing exception and b'cos of this the app had problems starting up. - Reinstallation is needed after migration from Win9x. Installation for Win9x based is different than for NT based. - Modified matching info to include version 4.1 as well. - This Japanese Font package can not be installed, because setup has an ini liasted - all platform it supports. - Fixed with Win2000VersionLie Shim. - App uses priviledged instructions to mess around with system time. We ignore them and the AV it then caused. - The graphics around the racing courses in this game are missing. This is due to the way they are opening files from the CD. Adding EmulateCDFS takes care of this problem. They are also releasing DirectX from a different thread than they created it so applying EmulateDirectDrawSync takes care of that issue. - App uses a stack based buffer of about 1000 bytes for the call to GetFileVersionInfo. On Win9x, this was okay as the return was a little over 1000. On Win2K, the return is about 2000 bytes, thus the stack gets trashed and it AVs. - Install's "setup.inf" had a comment on the same line as some data, caused an error in which a file was reported as not found. Fixed with EmulateGetProfileString. - Install tested if handles returned from lzInit were lte 0 when valid handles can be zero or greater. Handles in/decremented to compensate by EmulateLZHandles. - Install needed Win95VersionLie to prompt for installation of After Dark On-Line. - Install needed to reboot (EnableRestarts). - Install needed VirtualRegistry to install itself in the display properties. - App needed Win95VersionLie to fully function. - App needed CorrectFilePaths to open display properties. - Uninstall needed to reboot (EnableRestarts). - Uninstall needed VirtualRegistry to uninstall itself from the display properties. - Uninstall needed MoveWinInitRenameToReg to delete files after reboot. - Bug in Whistler's behavior concerning ScreenSaveActive registry key necessitated AfterDark so screen saver UI wasn't grayed on uninstall. - Changed two entries to reference "After Dark 10th Anniversary" entries. - Same fixes as After Dark 4.0, except that this time it doesn't need EmulateGetProfileString or EnableRestarts on the install. - Autorun requires HideDisplayModes to prevent it from hanging - App pops up a message about display mode which we can kill - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Mig entry. App AVs at launch after migration. Needs uninstall/reinstall. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Mig entry. App AVs at launch after migration. Needs uninstall/reinstall. - PropagateProcessHistory is needed to add the parent directory to the search path for matching criteria in both cases. - The Heat setup would not open the heat web page. CorrectFilePaths with the given COMMAND_LINE takes care of the problem. - The DirectX 7.0 setup would display an error stating that the OS was not supported. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - DXSetup.exe would not install on the system as well but would crash the system with a Win9xVersionLie Win2000VersionLying allows the installation to continue and complete successfully by finding that the current version is sufficient. - Changed DX7 shims to reference those in the DX app entry. - Application setup would not install due to version checking for win9x and it's fixed by Win95VersionLie. - ForceDxSetupSuccess.dll will fix problem in Direct X 3.0 setup. - Port in/out instructions filtered by IgnoreException - Bad parameter passed to CreateFileMapping which is autocorrected by Win9x. - Non-growable heap fixed by HeapForceGrowable - In-memory patch to fix an app bug caused by an assumption that files are mapped into the top 2Gb of memory. - NOTE: There are additional in/out calls within a try..except block which won't be caught by the Win2000 version of IgnoreException. - Added EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - Updated matching info - Added IgnoreAltTab to fix minimize problem - HEAPCHANGE: HeapForceGrowable -> EmulateHeap - AppHelp to point to newest version - Removed hardblock. Many people were complaining. - AIWA PV-BW5610 Dial-up Protection might not work properly on this version of Windows. - Added COMPANY_NAME and changed UPTO_BIN_FILE_VERSION to matching information. AIWA TA version up utility might not work properly on this version of Windows. 1. All of these utility file don't have any version resource. 2. This version of the utility is the only utility they provide. There is no other version of this utility. 3. They have no plan to update these files. I confirmed that AIWA have provided only these version of utilities to end user and they have no plan to update these utilities. These utilities are for Win98 and they have not updated over 2 years. We discussed with AIWA the matching info and this matching is the answer from AIWA. - Merged three models into one entry and used a generic massage. - Added FILE_DESCRIPTION, UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION, and other file name for matching information. - AIWA TM-ADX/AD/ED USB driver might not work properly on this version of Windows. - Version error on setup Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Requires 256 colors Fixed with Force8BitColor - Replaced patch with shims: - IgnoreException needed for INT_OVERFLOW during menu selection when moving mouse - MapMemoryB0000 needed on some systems for BINKW32.DLL - EmulateHeap needed on some systems if desktop resolution is 32bit to prevent AV on overruns - Specific shim required to delay BinkClose which causes faults due to a synchronization bug. - Modified matching info to catch gold edition - Autorun application throws up a dialog box whenever an unhandled owner-draw button state message is passed to the app. This caused a cascade of "uhoh"-titled dialog boxes. The shim simply filters out said messages. - Updated matching info - Added ForceDXSetupSuccess for the installer - The app installs BC50rte.dll into the Win9x system directory and after the upgrade it access it at Whistler system directory (which is system32 not system). - Using SyncSystemAndSystem32 shim fixes the problem. - Wing error on launch Fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32 - 16 bit shim purging. Removed XML entries for 16 bit applications. SyncSystemandSystem32 was applied to a 16bit installer to copy wing binaries to the system32 directory. This shim wasn't necessary as the main app exe checks the system directory for the files, not system32. The wing setup copies the binaries to system. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (SyncSystemAndSystem32 removed) - app needs to be started from exe file's directory otherwise doesn't find some files and crashes - Version lie to a registration .exe during setup - The application would produce an error stating that Wing.dll is not in the right location. This is taken care of with SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll. ALSETUP.EXE is a 16-bit EXE. - App would pop error about needing Windows 95 on autorun. Use Win95VersionLie to correct. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath Shim. - Preview quicktime movie wasn't played entirely and app quits. EmulateCDFS fixes this. - Setup does not launch from autorun fixed with windows98 version lie - QuickTime AV'd while searching for previous versions. Fixed by LimitFindFile. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App must be reinstalled to work properly after a migration. - Shortcut to Desktop was trying to be placed in %windir%\desktop which is now redirected to documents and settings\all users\desktop - Added PropagateProcessHistory to find matching files relative to Autorun.exe - Added new entries to match running setup.exe directly. - Verified that matching files and shim works with three different versions: Plus, Gold and Platinum - Updated matching info to catch another version - App crashes when run in multiple sessions with Fast User Switching - At end of install app puts up a restart now box which fails. EnableRestarts corrects this problem. - This app is using CTL3DV2.DLL which upon launch pops up a message stating that the dll is in invalid PE image. IgnoreLoadLibrary takes care of this. The app also looks for a key that existed on 9x but not on 2K or Whistler. I modified VirtualRegistry to add the key. The app also complains about fonts on launch so I put in IgnoreMessageBox to ignore the message and allow the app to just go. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entries add the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive an apphelp message stating there are known problems with the app. The same apphelp message will occur on the installation of the application. - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - Removed SafeDisc AppHelp, driver was added to build. - App would fail to start because desktop needs to be 8 bit - Invalid alpha channel for Icons in library preview window. - CreateIcon param lpbXORbits has uninitialized alpha channel. -This application is incompatible with the version of WindowsXP. Doesn't display a menu button.Update module will be released. -SHARP requests us to list into the upgrade report this application as incompatible app. - Shortcuts not created in Start - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Revised matching info to catch all versions up to (but not including) 5.0 - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Broke out migration entries into AOL 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 - Broke out migration entries into AOL 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 - Broke out migration entries into AOL 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 - Broke out migration entries into AOL 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 - Added vendor name - Upon launch the application would get to the initialization stage and then exit without error. Win2000VersionLie takes care of the problem. - There are two versions of AOL 5.0. One is for Win9x, and one is for Win2000. Two APP entries were created. - The Win9x version is currently available from a CD and the web. It must be AppHelped to indicate that it is incompatible. - AOL System Information Utility had a version error and refused to launch Fixed with Win2000VersionLie - App hogs the NIC resource, making it impossible to run multiple sessions of AOL5 with FUS. - After talking at length with AOL, here is their versioning scheme: Codename Kilimanjaro (AOL 5.0) is incompatible with NT. Codename Niagara was the next version, but AOL kept the version at 5.0. Niagara is NT-compatible. They also made hot-fixes to the Kilimanjaro code base and rev'd the version number to 5.0.x.x such that now Kilimanjaro has a higher version number than Niagara. The only way to truly tell them apart is to test for the existence of tool\dun.tol, which will only exist on Niagara. - AOL calls RasSetEntryProperties with a RASENTRY structure whose size is set to the size of buffer returned by RasGetEntryProperties. It's actually supposed to be sizeof(RASENTRY). This caused an uninitialized portion of the newly expanded RASENTRY structure to be passed in and the API doesn't like indeterminate values for dwRedialPulse. - AOL enumerates a registry entry assuming it to be a fixed sized entry but this has changed in Windows XP and hence the regression. - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - App hogs the NIC resource, making it impossible to run multiple sessions of AOL6 with FUS. - After talking at length with AOL, here is their versioning scheme: AOL 6.0.0 (codename K2) is compatible with NT at the same level as 5.0 Niagara. The 6.0.2 client, which will be fully WinXP compliant and take care of FUS issues. - AOL has requested that pre-6.0.2 clients have Win2000VersionLie applied to them. - AOL enumerates a registry entry assuming it to be a fixed sized entry but this has changed in Windows XP and hence the regression. - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - Using WinXPVersion lie for the setup will solve the issue. - AOL Installer fails to install modem files, DeRandomizeExeName and WinXPVersionLie fixes. - SINF.EXE needs WinXPVersionLie as well. - Added another setup.exe - An uninitialzed struct in oscarui.dll causes buttons to be drawn with the wrong background color. Use StackSwap to clear the stack - App would exit due to an exception thrown - App would launch to a black screen when started. Used EmulateDirectDrawSync to fix. - App would crash when alt-tabbed. Use IgnoreAltTab to fix. - Make this app work with profiles - Common Dialog box after the saving of first file will have no File types listed in the dialog box. Fixed using WinNT4SP5VersionLie shim Application’s SP2 version is released as Windows Server 2003 compatible, lower SKUs RTM, SP1 are not supported. - Appshelp item. Application issue, App AVs when printing crosstables. Nonclient theming: Lotus SmartSuite component: app-rendered nonclient area incompatible with themes. - Updated matching info to catch 9.1 and CHS 9.0.1 - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Corrected UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION from 9.6.10.401 to 9.6.103.2700 on approach.exe - Added the Ole32ValidatePointers flag to fix the AV when saving in design. This is the KACF_OLE32VALIDATEPOINTERS flag. This forces OLE32 to check for bad pointers. - Added win NT migration messages - added NOLINKREQUIRED to win9x upgrade appshelp. - Fine tuning of the matching criteria for the Chinese version. - Changed matching info on Approach.exe to apply Apphelp message and shims only to versions 9.0.* thru 9.6.*. This prevents the apphelp message from appearing on Approach 3.0 - Added WINNT_UPGRADE to include CHT version. Removed obsoleted WINNT_UPGRADES. - Added WINNT_UPGRADE to include JPN version. - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Add the localized registry files for localized SmartCenter. - Add matching info to match the EXE per language. - Populate reg keys to other users who did not install the app. - This is INTL version app. - Buffer the NumberOfBytesRead parameter due to stack corruption like issue. - Set TokenOwner to addministrator group SID. - To affect local one, modifying MI. - This app requires Shockwave 7 but points to Shockwave 8 on the web. - Uses CorrectFilePathsRedirect shim to redirect start.exe to point to version 7. - Sound Mapped to Audio Card Instead of USB Sound System Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added matching for 6.61 English - Modifying matching for 6.61 English to make sure only versions of 6.6 were being apphelped. - Added entry for 6.5 to catch a missed setup.exe. - After installation Autorun.exe does not open PLAY option. - CorrectFilePaths and HandleAPIExceptions fix this problem - Loosened matching info - Replaced the old entry with this one. - Install required Win95 or it would terminate. Win95VersionLie takes care of this. - During the intro before gameplay you would not see the 3DO trailer. Force640x480x8 takes care of this problem. - After the trailer the applications pallet would be corrupt. ForceDefaultSystemPaletteEntries takes care of this problem. - Application would cause errors when installing DirectX. ForceDXSetupSuccess fixes this. - Application would not restart after installation. EnableRestarts takes care of this problem. - Shortcuts copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Alt Tab will not maximize. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Intro video pauses and loops when played on dual proc machines Fixed with SingleProcAffinity - Not registering exe (in the registry) correctly. - Incorrect use of palette - DXSetup error during setup. ForceDXSetupSuccess - App does not reboot after install Fixed with EnableRestarts - Loosened matching criteria by removing filesize and checksums - SETUP.EXE or Setup.exe needs PropagateProcessHistory in order to include setup directory into search history for matching info. (Setup.exe invoked by Autorun. SETUP.EXE can be invoked manually). - App setup can't run due to windows version checking. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - During gameplay if the user hits the Windows key or alt+tab the application would exit upon minimization. I also noticed that if you hit shift repeatedly then you would also terminate the application. IgnoreAltTab and DisableStickyKeys takes care of these problems. - Added VirtualRegistry with Command line = DX7A to fix this issue. - Start menu shortcuts are only created in the profile from which the app is installed. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria -Added the EmulateMissingExe SHIM to catch the missing EXE's for ScanDisk and DeFrag when the Troubleshooter is started. - Matching criteria not catching version Fixed by adding ..\ to 2nd matching file on _INS5576 - New IgnoreAltTab shim now automatically applies DisableStickyKeys and DisableFilterKeys. - Removed DisableStickyKeys shim. - PropagateProcessHistory is needed to add the setup directory to the search history for matching info. - Application would not install on WinNT, needed Win9x version lie. - Entry would not catch the Win2K case with the previous matching info. The info was changed and setup, different than original, and autorun were added for PropagateProcessHistory. - DX error during setup Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - DX version fails on system test during setup Fixed with VirtualRegistry - Version error during setup Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX error during install Fixed with Virtual Registry - Alt-tab / sticky keys cause app to exit in minimize Fixed with IgnoreAltTab and DisableStickyKeys - Army Men Value Pack 2 version of Army Men World War is not fixed. This new version does not have an .icd and all files on the cd are on the stand-alone cd. Fixed with new entry using LOGIC=NOT per Linstev - New IgnoreAltTab shim now automatically applies DisableStickyKeys and DisableFilterKeys. - Removed DisableStickyKeys shim. - Make app work for LUA - Installation needs version lie. - App changes the system colors. On NT it gets the nearest color when you do GetSysColor. When the app sets them again, the colors look wrong. Uses IgnoreSysColChanges to fix this. - Shortcuts not copied to all users - fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to run correctly on newer processors - Running the app causes a window to pop up that should contain the text "Please Insert CD No. 2" but instead has no text and just the number 1 - Installer requires version lie and EmulateCreateProcess - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - PropagateProcessHistory needed to add install directory to search path. - Application stated there was not enough free space on drives with 2G or more free. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of this problem. - Improved matching info - The app was relying on Control ID for the ToolBarWindow32 class to be IDOK. This has changed on Whistler where they use the defined Control ID for Accessibility. - Shell team has a flag that they set in the registry FILEOPENBOGUSCTRLID. I have added this to the Win2K layer through the VirtualRegistry shim as this is a regression from Win2K. - Application is incompatible and no longer supported by the ISV. - Watson bucket: 2912268 -Issue: ATI Multimedia Center does not supported in Whistler -Resolution: AppsHelp - Flag ATI redistributables that include MMC 7.1 as having a patch available on the ATI web site for download; Flag all other downlevel versions of MMC and MMCDVD the same (blanket fix). - CDMedia: ATI TV Wonder Version#100, Volume 180-V01027-100 - MMC 6.3 included in this package has compatibility problem and should be flagged during its setup. - to ignore .local and use system32\msvcrt.dll, need blank manifest Fixes V7, V8, Personal V1, Personal 2002, Server 2002, Tr@anslingo - to ignore .local and use system32\msvcrt.dll, need blank manifest Fixes V9 and Personal 2003 - Setup does not launch from autorun Fixed with EmulateCreateProcess - App and Setup needs Win98VersionLie - Modified and add matching files - Error during setup that NT4 SP or higher is required for install. Applying NT4SP5VersionLie Attune setup states it is not made for NT, which is consistant with the readme. Win95Versionlie will allow this app to install, but it causes errors and general instability after rebooting. The latest version of Attune is NT compatible, and may be downloaded from Attune's website. Appshelp applied to instruct user to go to website and install latest version. - The app uses obsolete performance counter \System\% Total Processor Time in a call to PDH API PdhAddCounter, which returns PDH_CSTATUS_BAD_COUNTERNAME. But the app fails to handle it properly, which is resulting in an AV. - Error during setup that NT4 SP or higher is required for install. Applying NT4SP5VersionLie Attune setup states it is not made for NT, which is consistant with the readme. Win95Versionlie will allow this app to install, but it causes errors and general instability after rebooting. The latest version of Attune is NT compatible, and may be downloaded from Attune's website. Appshelp applied to instruct user to go to website and install latest version. - Setup tries to load helper32.dll which needs the ThunkConnect32 export from kernel32.dll. On NT kernel32.dll doesn't export this. But it doesn't need anything from helper32.dll so we simply return a non-NULL for LoadLibrary so the setup doesn't complain. - When setup creates the shortcut for the help file it uses winhelp.exe which on 9x calls winhlp32 but NT doesn't have this behavior so we change it to use winhlp32.exe. - Corrupted exe and numerous problems after setup. Appshelped to point them to download site for newer version. - Setup error - Invalid Operating System, Setup will only install the ATT WorldNet software 2.5 on Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, and Windows 95(or later) systems. Your system is not supported. - Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Uninstall error - Invalid Operating System, Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Added include/exclude to previous entry - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - Setup needed a version lie to continue. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (Win95VersionLie replaced with WOWCFEX_PLATFORMVERSIONLIE) - 16 bit shim purging. Wnun25.exe needed a version lie to continue. - 16 bit executables removed: Wnun25.exe (Win95VersionLie replaced with WOWCFEX_PLATFORMVERSIONLIE) WOWCFEX_PLATFORMVERSIONLIE was modified to take a command line - Installation failed due to stack corruption. This is because app setup enumerates of File Version info for shdocvw.dll which in Whistler will give "File Version Description" field larger than 32 bytes. The app setup can't handle string larger than this correctly and it overwrote saved-ebp and return address. In Windows 2000/Win9x, there is no long File Version Description item in File Version Info. FileVersionInfoLie with header for shdocvw.dll from Win9x handles this. - The same problem (stack corruption) also found when user try to connect to ISV after app was installed. - Registration program crashes on fast machines: Watson bucket: 2807810, 1102637 - ldemo.exe crashes intermittently on multiple OSes. It doesn't appear to do anything and it's only for a demo, so kill it: Watson bucket: 2063899 - This application does not function properly under Whistler stating that a required driver, ASPI could not be located. - This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be removed (uninstalled) when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. This entry also produces an appshelp message stating that the application isn't compatible with this version of Whistler. - The existing entry left out version 2.0.5. It has now been added. - The existing entry left out version 2.30. It has now been added to both the apphelp for clean install under XP and for migration. - It's not functioning properly on whisteler - App does a signed comparison on dwAvailPageFile return from GlobalMemoryStatus - Currently only repros on IA64, but could on X86 as well - Investigated by samera - NT4 Version error during install Fixed with Win95VersionLie - DX Setup error during install Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - ported from Win2k - Setup program needs WinNT4SP5VersionLie. - Executing uninstall from Add/Remove Program won't reboot the machine. EnableRestarts corrects this. - Improved matching info in order to match localized version of AutoCAD 2000. - PropagateProcessHistory is needed to include scenario where AutoCad 2000 setup launched from inside AutoCAD 2000 Network and License Manager setup. - Setup fails with error message: System requirement error. Wrong OS. Autocad supports Windows NT4.0, Windows NT5.0, Windows 95 and Windows 98 Win2000VersionLie.dll fixes this problem. - Migration Entry for JPN AutoCAD2000 specific issue (#37696). After an upgrade this app will not launch. Reinstalling the application under WinXP takes care of the problem. Since this entry is only needed for JPN, we use size and checksum not to grab US Autocad. - IsRectEmpty sometimes caused the app to fault - timing dependant Watson issue and therefore not well understood. - Watson bucket: 2580176 - Fix it for LUA - Setup program needs WinNT4SP5VersionLie. - make it work under LUA - App setup program misinterpreted OS version and installed extra shortcut into Program folder. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of this. - Spoke to Autodesk. We need to remove the AutoCAD appfix. ISV is releasing a new version of AutoCAD 2000 this week (optimized for Win2K) and are actively promoting all corporations to upgrade. They do not support R14 under Win2k and are concerned that the appfix gives a confusing message to mutual customers. - ported from Win2k - CFP to put shortcuts in All Users - CFPU to remove Crystal Reports folder from start menu - VL to Crystal Reports install so it doesn't create bad uninstall shortcut - VL to AutoDesk install so it doesn't create bogus uninstall shortcut - Swallow debug message during install - Force focus on AutoDesk install - Crystal Reports checks for free disk space - Crystal Reports causes a stack overflow while searching for a previous version. We limit the search with LimitFindFile. - VBA uninstall chokes - swallow the message box - These packages incorrectly assume that the source location will be automatically resolved at a certain point of the install, and have logic after that point that relies on the source having been resolved. In Whistler, the source resolution point has moved to a later point of the install. If the first bit in SHIMFLAGS is set, it will enable a fix where we automatically resolve the source in the InstallValidation action as long as we are not performing a full uninstall. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive an appshelp message stating there are known problems with the app. - Added 1.0.0.6 to the AppHelp message, and also added installers - Added AutoSave.sys 1.0.0.2 to driver blocking database - sketch.exe needs GiveUpForeground flag. Artgalry (clip art) tries to display a messagebox and a window, but these are prevented from gaining the foreground by sketch. Fixed by applying the flag and by changes in wow32.dll - DirectX does not support the windows version on the system. Fixed with ForceDXsetupsucess. - The application loads WING32.DLL upon launching and complains that WING32.DLL is not in SYSTEM32 directory.SyncSystemAndSystem32 takes care of this problem by copying these files to both the system and system32 directories during installation. - The application would look for WING.DLL, WING32.DLL, and WAVMIX16.DLL upon launching the application. SyncSystemAndSystem32 takes care of this problem by copying these files to both the system and system32 directories upon installation. - owmix32.dll not copied to system32 directory error - Fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx. - Application creates shortcuts to help files using %windir%\winhelp.exe, changed to %systemdir%\winhlp32.exe - The app setup can't handle Windows version properly. It needs WinNT4SP5VersionLie.dll. - This is a case where a driver is trying to write to protected kernel memory. The application causes a bug check upon launch. There is a driver block on the offending module. This entry is to provide an apphelp during installation. - App doesn't call CoInitialize and so certain AVI operations fail: fixed by ForceCoInitialize Watson bucket: 2205275 - App calls AVIStreamWrite with a NULL buffer: fixed with EmulateWriteFile Watson bucket: 3121653 - Axis and Allies cannot regain focus once Alt-Tab is hit, IgnoreAltTab takes care of the error. - App tries to use Win9x Aureal drivers which fail to initialize - Fixed by failing the creation of the A3d COM objects and causing the game to fail over to it's default sound mechanism. - ported from Win2k - The app updates the SharedSection resource in the HKLM\System\CCS\Control\Session Manager\Subsytems\Windows value to 4096 from the one exisiting (512). This is causing the BaanLogicService and BaanSharedMemory services to fail. The app specific shim hooks the RegSetValueExA call and return success without setting the value in registry. - This app had problems during installation with the VerInstallFileW API. This shims corrects the problem and replaces the short path names with the respective long path names Added an AppHelp Message for IE Enhanced Security Configuration to alert user to enable Third Party Browser Extensions - ported from Win2k - Setup does not work.The message "Target system OS not supported". Win95VersionLie fixes this problem - After installation the autorun screen shows only the install option. SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll fixes this problem by putting wing.dll, wing32.dll, and qtim32.dll in the correct directory - Upon launching Disk 1, BSC 3rd Grade, the runtime error message occurs and program terminates. CorrectSoundDeviceId.dll fixes this problem. - Upon launching Disk 2, Friendship Kit, the application terminates as a result of executing priviliged instructions. Patching the memory with PATCH NAME BSCActivityCenter fixes this problem. - Merge of QT32INS.EXE entries - Added additional matching entry for _INS0576._MP to account for different version. - Adjusted matching information. Matching info. was not unique enough as another Creative Wonders app was getting shimmed. - Removed the individual QuickTime entries. The EXE LINK takes care of the problem. - Shortcuts not copied to All users start menu fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Setup does not work.The message "Target system OS not supported". Win95VersionLie fixes this problem. - After installation the autorun screen shows only the install option. SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll fixes this problem by putting wing.dll and wing32.dll in the correct directory - Upon launching Disk 1, BSC 4th Grade, the runtime error message occurs and program terminates. CorrectSoundDeviceId.dll fixes this problem. - Added additional _INS0576._MP to account for another version. - Adjusted matching information. Previous matching was causing this app to get shimmed when it shouldn't have been, but another Creative Wonders app should have. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Setup does not work.The message "Target system OS not supported". Win95VersionLie fixes this problem. - After installation the autorun screen shows only the install option. SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll fixes this problem by putting wing.dll and wing32.dll in the correct directory - Upon launching the application it terminates as a result of executing priviliged instructions. Patching the memory with PATCH NAME BSCActivityCenter fixes this problem. - The application exposes the message "Insert CD-ROM into CD drive and restart". This message is a result of zero handles returning by GetStdHandle. EmulateGetStdHandle returns non-zero values and fixes that problem. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - App needs 640 x 480 resolution in order to launch Fixed with Force640x480x8 - Removed Filesize and checksums - ported from Win2k - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Apphelp entry update. Added matching to catch additional JPN exes - Apphelp entry update. Added 2.5, 4.5 readiness kit and 2000. - Apphelp entry for Backoffice 2000. - Not supported on Windows Server 2003 - Apphelp entry changed to catch JPN Basic Edition - Tightened the matching info to avoid matching on another application - SCSI driver blue screens on reboot - added blocks 04mmdat.sys, 0archqic.sys,0dlttape.sys, 0exabmqic.sys, 0exabyte1.sys, 0exabyte2.sys, 0tandmqic.sys, 0tandqic.sys, 0wangqic.sys, 0wangqic2.sys, halfinch.sys, sonysdx.sys, tratapi.sys, and trscsi.sys, and increased scsiopt.sys to 4.x per VERITAS - Error message pops up on Server stating app cannot be run on this OS. corrected with win2000versionlie. - Av occurs due to uninitialized parameters with TVM_GETITEM sendmessage. - This utility is found on HP machines - Stack corruption fixed by StackSwap - Removed worthless message box with IgnoreMessageBox - Needed to fix race condition on demo app launcher - Demo Apps would complain when killed. Ignored complaints. - All entries need SyncSystemAndSystem32 - if the WinG files are not installed on the PC, no error appears. If they are installed, but are only in the System directory, the error appears. This is odd behavior. - During installation a shortcut to uninstall was created which didn't even work. There are no links created in win98. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the problem. - Autorun crashes as a result of a freed heap being used by the app. EmulateHeap fixes this. - App requires EmulateHeap - App makes mode change permanent, so use ForceTemporaryModeChange - App dialogs look bad with themes in 256 color, so use DisableThemes - Reading old values off the stack in 2 places and derefrencing them. - To fix we fill old stack with valid pointers. - Replaced specific shim with StackSwap - 8192 bytes - Updated matching info - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Revised matching info - Screen saver activation crashes the game. Fixed by DisableScreenSaver. - App would not install due to OS version - App would display DX setup error msg during install. Fixed with IgnoreMessageBox (ForceDXSetupSuccess didn't work in this case) - App had problems deleting reg keys. - Calling PlaySound with a NULL sound should stop the current sound, but doesn't if the app passes SND_NO_STOP as one of the flags. Applied shim removes the SND_NO_STOP parameter if the sound is NULL. - Setup created extra shortcut in program group. Win95VersionLie takes care of this. - Removed Desktop Horse from app title. - App caches DirectDraw surface DCs - Fixed by aliasing the DC on GetDC and unaliasing on GDI APIs - Improved matching info - App tried to find Desktop Horse shortcut in %userdesktop% but setup created the shortcut in %alldesktop%. Fixed this by adding command line to CorrectFilePaths shim. - DX setup on install Fixed with win95versionlie - App crashes after 3-4 minutes in a heap call - Fixed with EmulateHeap - During installation an error is displayed stating the OS is not supported. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - At the end of installation the application runs the below executable to determine the speed of the cd rom drive. This value is to be stored in the registry but an error occurs when writing to the registry and it is not saved. This causes the application to AV upon launch. VirtualRegistry takes care of the problem. - App caches DirectDraw surface DCs - Fixed by aliasing the DC on GetDC and unaliasing on GDI APIs - App has corrupted Video and audio when task Switching - applied IgnoreAltTab - Needed EmulatePrinter so printer would work correctly. - Application writes screensaver information directly into SYSTEM.INI, we move the information into the registry. - This application does not function properly due to application error after a migration from Win9x to Whistler. - MediaVision requests us to list into the upgrade report this application. - The application has it's own version checking on install so an appshelp message is not needed. - Need to add the matching file for non-CD-R/RW in the migration section. Bari2 Internet(Speed Surfer) might not function properly on this version of Windows. Bari2 KantanSetuzoku(Modem Wizard) might not function properly on this version of Windows. -This application does not function properly with the version of WindowsXP. -MediaVision requests us to appshelp and to list into the upgrade report this application. -There are no unique files for matching info, so we need to use SIZE and CHECKSUM for readme.txt. - Fix text color problem - unsupported COLORREFs passed to SetTextColor - Fix bad heap free calls that cause corruption - Alt Tab is not supported normally - Fix a particular version check to get sound, if we lie to the whole app, then it checks HKEY_DYN_DATA for display information - Upgraded matching info - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - Desktop shortcut not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Unsupported text color usage and expecting a pointer reallocation to be at the same address. - Fix by emulating win9x text behavior and buffering heap calls. - Version lie to get sound - Requires patch from http://www.microsoft.com/games - Shortcuts not appearing for all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Shortcuts not removed for all users Fixed with CorrectFilePathsUninstall - HEAPCHANGE: HeapLookasideFree -> EmulateHeap - Updated matching info - If you use a video card that supports more than 10 texture formats the app will AV writing passed the end of their SURFACEDESC array. Fixed with the BaseBall2000 shim. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Lower the thread and process priority (except DInput) to give DInput a better chance to handle keyboard input. - App calls HeapFree with invalid pointers causing heap corruption. - Fixed with HeapValidateFrees shim. - Desktop shortcut is only created in the profile from which the app is installed. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - Input from keyboard slow in game. Fixed with IgnoreScheduler. - Shortcut does not appear for registration Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - The application would have distorted graphics after returning from alt+tab and other hotkey combinations. These features are disabled under Win98 so IgnoreAltTab was added. - Added VirtualRegistry for intermittent crash as per mnikkel - AutoRun Error message "Failed to Spawn Battleship launcher".STARTUPINFO struct contains garbage. EmulateCreateProcess.dll fixes this problem. - AutoRun Menu battons do not have names when the batton is not activated. EmulateTextColor.dll is applied to fix this problem. - Main menus of the Launcher and Classic Battleship have palette corrupted. PaletteRestore.dll fixes those problems. - Launcher's Main menu does not have focus - a black screen. Launcher exposes LogError message "Failed to Open Registry Entry (Constructor)" after some tens of second if to wait. AV's after selecting to launch the new games. Av's after selecting to quit the game and go to Main menu. Battleship.dll fixes those problems. - Return to the Launcher's Main menu from Classic Battleship cause the palette corruption. Added COMMAND_LINE() to Battleship.dll to fix this issue. - During installation the application displays an error stating that it won't run on this version of Windows. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - During the installation process a call to FindFirstFile is made with a bad filename consisting of g:\ \install\bs.exe causing an error. This is taken care of with CorrectFilePaths and the proper COMMAND_LINE. - Adjusted matching info to catch all autoruns (bs.exe) - The launcher (bshipl.exe) gives the user an option to launch either 'Classic' or 'Ultimate' versions. However, aside from several incompatibilities of it's own, it fails if the current desktop is not 256 color. - The Classic program (bship.exe) has a ton of problems ranging from random crashes to known incompatibilities that are hard to fix with a shim. - Ultimate Battleship is a complete superset of Classic and doesn't appear to have any problems. - The fix is to redirect the launcher to Ultimate, so at least the user can play a version without problems, since Ultimate is not exposed via shortcuts. - During DirectX installation an error occurs stating this version of DX(7.0a) is not compatible with this OS. ForceDXSetupSuccess.dll takes care of the problem. - Installation must run Windows95, lie to it. - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - Heat installation placing Start Menu items in incorrect directory - Added fixes for installation of installer/patch with virtualregistry - Fixed remaining problems: 1. Movies stop playing and app loops trying to play them repeatedly 2. Synchronize bad Begin/End Scene logic with custom shim. 3. Make all heaps growable 4. Restore system cursors to desktop settings due to bug in USER 5. Force all AVIs to play in the same window by means of a workaround for MCI. - These fixes cover the 1.4 patch as well. - Added PropagateProcessHistory to Katalyst.exe, so _INS0432._MP can find matching files. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapForceGrowable -> EmulateHeap - Version 1.4 needed win98 version lie for system check - Version 1.4 needed Correctfilepaths for shortcuts to appear properly. - Version 1.4 needed FileVersionInfoLie for DirectX check. - Installation pops a message for Win9x only - although it runs all the same. - App calls FindClose with invalid handles. - Remove Extraneous characters to prevent keyboard lock. - Pad heap allocations to prevent access violation to invalid memory. - The loose match on the exe allows the patch to work. - Added demo version which also needed VirtualRegistry - Added additional matching information for Windows 2000. Shim wasn't getting loaded due to directory structure on CD. Used ..\ so Loader will move down one directory and match with setup.exe. - Desktop icon/Startmenu not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation -> EmulateHeap - InstallShield quits on AMD Processors Fixed with ignoreexception.dll - On AMD processor based machines, privileged instruction exception (c0000096) was generated at offset 0x4343of GETINFO.DLL. This is due to instruction CLI. - Fixed by ignoring the exception. - Stops responding on ALT-TAB Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - IgnoreAltTab is retired. Changing to IgnoreAltTabEx fixes this. - Crash on launch Fixed with Shrinker - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - App expected IShellFolder::GetDisplayNameOf to return an ANSI string (as it does in win98) and did not check the uType flag to see if a unicode string was returned instead. This occurs on the install and uninstall. - App setup fails when DBCS user logon. GetTempPathA returns DBCS User included path. SETUP1.EXE (VB6 setup toolkit) convert path to Unicode and call MSVBVM60!rtcLeftCharBstr to set str length. This API calculate Unicode len = ANSI len + ANSI len and set wrong result for DBCS text. Length is wrong so MSVBVM60!_vbaStrCat can not add necessary file name to temp path. RedirectDBCSTempPath shim modify GetTempPathA result to SBCS (Default User) path. - Disk space error during install Fixed with EmulateGetFreeDiskSpace - Apps needed 256 colors or it fails to load - Multiple problems fixed with layer shims - Needed EmulateSlowCPU to run on faster machines. - Version lie required for install of one SKU - Autoplay requires GetDesktopWindow to return a 16 bit handle - Fixed by always returning NULL for this API -Applicaton does not install. Fixed with the Win95VersionLie and ForceDXSetupSuccess. -Applicaton does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with the ProfilesLayer. - Merged duplicate xml entries for same app. - Added high stakes casino entry. - Requires DelayWinMMCallback for User Settings and Themes to run properly. No description available for this history entry. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - Removed filesize and checksum matching info - GETINFO!GetProcessorSpeed uses CLI instruction on AMD processors - Added dll list to get rid of some error messages - The App. had problems launching and used to AV. - The application asked the user to restart after install but would just return to the desktop. EnableRestarts takes care of this problem. - Application needed virtual registry to correct problem where uninstall was not being registered properly for add/remove programs. - Application was using the width of scan lines (returned in GetObjectA) to determine the whether a bitmap was 16 or 24 bit. GetObjectA had a bug that caused the width of scan lines to NOT be DWORD aligned and thus confused that app. EmulateBitmapStride fixes this. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Graphic Corruption on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - No shortcuts for users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX version error during setup. Fixed with Win98VersionLie - App crashes using illegal instruction on AMD machine. - Application expects Win9X version during install Fixed with Win98versionlie. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - App calls winhelp.exe for opening hlp file which only can be opened with winhlp32.exe. CorrectFilePaths fixes this by replacing winhelp string with winhlp32 during CreateProcessA call to open premium.hlp. - Binkplay.exe gives the Shrinker Error message and the demo does not play. The 'Shrinker' SHIM fixes it. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - Setup needs ProfileSetup layer - MainEXE needs to access actmovie and reg Display mode force to 16bit and ignore exception - Simplify Layer section - When one launches app, it AV in ddraw.dll, the problem is when app calculates the client rectangle incorrectly when theme is on , and passes a bad parameter to one of DirectDraw API. DisableThemes shim fixes this - App also needs ForceDirectDrawEmulation and EmulateDirectDrawSync to work properly - Force a repaint after SetWindowTextA due to timing issue - Not supported on Windows Server 2003. Needs softblock. - Entries used a keyfile that only present in Standard edition, changed to btsboot.dll which is present in all editions. - Original entries used UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION from RTM version, SP1a and SP2 were being missed. - Added localized PRODUCT_NAME matching info for French and German skus for BizTalk Orchestration Designer (JPN is not localized) - Added support for localized msi packages, original only had US packages represented - Changed Incompatible message to NotSupported Added Appshelp Message Tweaked the xml to match all the Biztalk Server 2002 SKUs for original bug 466348 Changed Apphelp messages to use custom message AddToIntranetZoneBizTalk due to localization issues with use of PARAMETER1 field in previous entry Removed the matching DATA entry for the MSI package to catch all languages. Hence no need to have different MSI info for each sku - This application incompatible with this version of Windows. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps which are incompatible with this version of windows. Under Whistler there will be an apphelp message displayed when the user tries to launch the application. - Updated entry to include BlackIce Defender 2.5CG and 2.5CH - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Added further versions that are incompatible with windows server 2003. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed the the CorrectFilePaths shim. - Application uses 16-bit thunking APIs (SMAP). AppHelp'd and migration report-ed. - The "Register Me" app uses GetDeviceCaps to determine the number of palette entries and the number of reserved entries even when the display is not in palletized mode. GetDeviceCaps for those values is undefined when not in paletized mode (which should be checked for first by checking the RC_PALETTE bit of the value for RASTERCAPS). Under 9x the values were 0, which turned out to be safe, but under Whistler they're not 0 which leads to the app AVing. - App is creating an entry in the start menu when it does not on Win9x. Applying PropagateProcessHistory to setup.exe and Win95VersionLie to _INS5576._MP fixes this problem. I also altered the info for Blues123Time.r32 to remove the SIZE and CHECKSUM data. - App installs invalid shortcut into startmenu - Expects that GetFileAttributes won't add the read-only flag on CDROM dirs - Fixed with EmulateCDFS - App required version lie on two of its setups and a limitation on GetDiskFreeSpace results. - Install of quicktime requires a limitation on the number of sub-directories scanned. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Removed Filesize and Checksum from matching info - App bug, uses AVIFil32 without initializing. Fix is to force a CoInitialize on the calling thread which is what AVIFileInit does anyway. - Obscure user/avi file interaction that requires a shim to make sure the same window is always used for playing AVIs. - Updated matching info to include other media - Updated matching info - This application does not function properly when migrated from Win9x to Whistler. The following entries add the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, the shortcut will point to a linkstub and inform the user that the application must be reinstalled before it will launch. - Unloading WebCompass.dll before unregistering window class. - This is fixed by ignoring FreeLibrary call to WebCompass.dll. - Apparently this entry was changed from a migration to a standard apphelp entry. - I've updated the upto-product-version to include up to version 3.9.3 - Fix DBCS user profile setup problem - Nonclient theming: Boris KeyFramer Pro v.5 does two SetWindowRgn() calls for every WM_PAINT, the first with a region, the next with NULL, Is the app trying to clip painting to the region? If so, this is not what the SetWindowRgn API was intended for, and explains why this app is so clunky at window resizing. SelectClipRgn is the correct API. - Because of this behavior, themes are continually attached and revoked with each SetWindowRgn call, leading to substantial flicker and an exacerbation of the resizing problem. The ISV is urged to remove the calls to SetWindowRgn. - Upon migration from Win9X to WinXP the dongle drivers for this application are lost. Reinstalling the drivers for this app under WinXP does not solve the problem, flagging the application as incompatible. - Changed the section and message for the migration report. - Softblock 16-bit HASP driver and added versions 1.2 and 2.0 - Upon migration from Win9X to WinXP the dongle drivers for this application are lost. Reinstalling the drivers for this app under WinXP does not solve the problem, flagging the application as incompatible. - Changed the section and message for the migration report. - Added AppHelp to Setup to prompt customer to go to vendor for update to v2.1. - I broke v2.0 out into it's own "App" entry so that the name would show up nicely in the AppHelp. - Setup detects incorrect Free disk space. Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - ported from Win2k - This entry is for all versions below 6.01 - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Videos did not play on intro, fixed with ForceDirectDrawEmulation. - Menu bars showed up on intro screen, fixed with ForceSimpleWindow. - Sound repeated occassionally, fixed with IgnoreScheduler. - Version error on launch Fixed with Win95VersionLie Alt-tab (ctrl-esc) issue fixed with IgnoreAltTab - No description available for this history entry. - Display corruption after ALT-TAB. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab.dll. - Start Menu Program group not created under "All Users". Fixed with CorrectFilePaths. - make it work under LUA - B's Recorder GOLD has an upgrade issue. Reinstall is required. - The application would abort installation due to detecting an insufficient version of Windows. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the problem. There is no exclusion due to the exe being 16-bit. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - Business Plan Pro 3.0 setup needed nt4sp2 version lie. This is accomplished with the WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE compat flag. - 16 bit executables removed: Setup.exe (WinNT4SP5VersionLie replaced with WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE flag applied to bp3setup) WOWCFEX_SP2CSDVERSIONLIE was modified to take a command line - App throws up error messages when 2 user sessions play game. - app crashes when you try and print - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - App throws up error messages when 2 user sessions play game. - app crashes when you try and print - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - Apphelp to notify users that app is not supported on Windows Server 2003 - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - App faults when restoring from alt-tab Fixed with ignorealttab - App requires Win9X to install. Fixed with win95versionlie -Applicaton does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with the ProfilesSetup layer. - Crashes to desktop on windows key or alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Make this app work with profiles - App thinks it should only supports textures in 95 so we use Win95VersionLie to satisfy it. - Linked in AT&T WorldNet setup fix - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - ProfilesSetup removed as by design in DOSWOW. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (ProfilesSetup removed) - DX setup error during install Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Removed PropagateProcessHistory from setup.exe, which was preventing fix from working - Bitmap missing in autorun (EmulateGetProfileString) - Version error on install (Win95VersionLie) - Install won't restart computer (EnableRestarts) - No shortcuts in all users (CorrectFilePaths) - Exit dialog transparent and unclickable. Made somewhat better by DisableThemes and IgnoreAltTab. - ported from Win2k - I don't know how this entry got created but it doesn't work. The app fails to install on Whistler with an error that Sp3 needs to be installed. The NT4SP5 layer does not fix this problem on Whistler. - Now it's just apphelped. - No description available for this history entry. - The application detected NT but wanted at least Service Pack 3 installed. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the error. - This entry takes care of both the regular version and the deluxe version. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - The app is calling SetClipboardData (CF_TEXT) without emptying the clipboard first. - Using EmptyClipboardtoSet shim to empty the clipboard first fixes the problem. - Users not getting all shortcuts Fixed with correctfilepaths - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - This application is incompatible with this version of Windows. Attempting to configure the email service may cause an AV. Vendor has minor upgrade to version 3.2 available which runs fine. - This application is incompatible with this version of Windows. Attempting to configure the email service may cause an AV. Vendor has minor upgrade to version 3.2 available which runs fine. - Added PropagateProcessHistory and more matching cases to cover instances where setup is executed from various places - Fixed 3 problems with this app. During the install of WinG the WING32.DLL needs to be moved into the system32 folder instead of the system folder. Second the app is calling joyGetDevCaps and disregarding the error return value and using the structure data anyways. This results in a divide by zero with the structure filled out by Win2K or Whistler. I filled in the structure (on error condition) exactly the same as Win9x. The last problem is that the app is call SuspendThread during a WinMM callback so IgnoreSuspendThread is applied to prevent it. - Replaced IgnoreSuspendThread shim with IgnoreScheduler(a merged shim). - 16 bit shim purging. Removed XML entries for 16 bit applications. Syncsystemandsystem32 was applied to a 16bit setup program to copy binaries from system directory to system32. When the WinG32.dll is loaded, it checks its install path. If it finds that it is not installed in system32, it posts a messagebox and fails. WinG32SysToSys32 fixes this problem by altering the path string. - Removed SyncSystemAndSystem32 from candyw95.exe as it is no longer necessary. - 16 bit executables removed: play.exe (SyncSystemAndSystem32 replaced with WinG32SysToSys32 applied to candyw95.exe) - Canon MultiPASS Desktop Manager 3.0 will not be functional after upgrade from Win9x to Whistler. If a system is upgraded without removing this application and the related drivers, you will not be able to install the appropriate drivers or applications on your system after upgrade, and will not be able to remove this application. - App cannot autorun because setup.exe requires version lie. - Toolbar Button turns black when selected - Fixed with FakeThemeMetrics - Matching info revised to catch 7.0 - This version of the application does not work properly under Whistler. There is a patch available from the vendor though. The following entry produces an appshelp message to inform the user of the available patch. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - When exiting the service, the thread routine does not restore the stack, causing a EXCEPTION_PRIV_INSTRUCTION. Ignore the error (since it is exiting anyway) - Installing this application causes WinXP to bluescreen upon reboot. The features that it would install are native to the system. Apphelping the installer stating the functionality already exists. - Changed message to Incompatible. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Alt-tab causes display corruption Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - While start running the program error message MIDI sound device or driver has failed to respond. Applying couple shims fix the issue. - Version errors on install Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Disk space error on install Fixed with EmulateGetDiskSpace -App uses GetFileVersionInfo on a path returned from -DirectSoundEnumerate. This driver isn't located in the path, -so the VerQueryValue is called with garbage and AV's. -Adding %SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers to the path fixes this. - App fails to initialize setup.exe. Needs win95VersionLie. - Install needs gdfs as well on larger drives to install. - Fixed install. SETUP32 need the propagateprocesshistory shim. Also path to carmenqt.exe was wrong. - EmulateHeap shim was needed to stop crash after intro movie. - Needed to apply the RemoveNoBufferingFlagFromCreateFile shim to quicktime.qts to stop choppy audio playback. - Change to match on files not size and checksum. - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - qt32inst.exe of QuickTime. - Import table contains WINSPOOL.DLL instead of WINSPOOL.DRV. - Use Fusion to redirect loader Redirects loader to Winspool.drv instead of Winspool.dll. - Creates a heap with maximum size, which severely limits the size of memory blocks HeapForceGrowable removes the limitation - HEAPCHANGE: HeapForceGrowable -> EmulateHeap - Heap Allocation Error when starting Fixed with HeapForceGrowable - Direct3D generates a Divide by Zero exception which can be ignored. This works on nVidia and Permedia 2 cards in the D3D mode but fails on other cards. Bugs have been filed against those cards. - Desktop shortcut not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Makes illegal call to InitializeSecurityDescriptor, then passes illegal security descriptor param to CreateSemaphore. - Calls waveOut functions with unknown DeviceID 0xFFFF, which once was the 16-bit constant for WAVE_MAPPER. - Attempts to install files into the wrong locations; need CorrectFilePaths - Attempts to uninstall files into the wrong locations; need CorrectFilePathsUninstall - Removed UtDel32 and UtilDel EXE entries. These are taken care of in the entry for Sierra Utilities. - There appears to be another version of the application. The current fixes were not being applied due to file layout being different, which was messing up the matching info. A new entry has been added for the install and the actual application. - The matching criteria for Windy.exe has been loosened in order to catch multiple instances of the application. - Sounds bleed when app is run in multiple sessions. - After Migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - Desktop shortcut was being created in %windir%\desktop, with hardcoded values to C:\Program Files - Added EnableRestarts to allow the app to reboot. - Corrected casper.dll to correct the link if user reboots or not. - Kill the window the 2nd time SetFocus is called on the SmackWin window. - Tester found more problems with the SmackWin window playing video. Modified the shim to fix all of them. - Error that app requires 256 color mode on launch Fixed with ForceDisplayMode - In Whistler Personal, app looks for C:\\USERNAME\locals~1\temp EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace fixes this. - Merged duplicate Superbike entries - Added missing bug description for this: - Selecting play from autoplay doesn't start the app. CreateProcess behavioral change for startup directory is causing this to fail. EmulateCreateProcess corrects this problem. - Runtime error when demo.exe launched. It's because the program is using privilege instructions. Using memory patch corrects this problem. - Separated entries for "Castrol Superbike World Champions" from Intense Simulations and "Superbike World Championship" from Electronic Arts. - Added missing bug number for this (91941 and 92039). - Removed excess matching info. - Application improperly strips exe name off of the path passed as the lpCurrentDirectory to CreateProcess. App specific shim properly removes the exe name. See DLL entry for SuperBike for detailed description. - Replaced memory patch with IgnoreException - Added entry for the demo which uses priv mode instructions - Kill the demo cleanly since it normally AVs on exit - App produced error stating the start menu folder could not be created. - This is taken care of with Win95VersionLie. - IgnoreSysColChanges to prevent changes to system colors: the app does not restore the colors on exit. - Note this isn't really a bug, since it happens on win9x, but it's lame to have all desktop colors changed by an app. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 -Apphelp Entry. App Installs bad driver. BSODs at reboot. - Changed hardblock to softblock because fastcdmp.sys driver is blocked. No need to hardblock app. -Apphelp Entry. App Installs bad driver. BSODs at reboot. - Changed hardblock to softblock because fastcdmp.sys driver is blocked. No need to hardblock app. - This version of Corel CD Creator is not compatible with Whistler/Win2K. Installing this software will cause BSOD (portdrv.sys) after first reboot. - We added apphelp with hardblock to prevent user to install this incompatible software. - It reads the OS version from the registry via kernel mode calls. Macrovision has a fix for this. - Additional version needed appshelp. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - This app needs the FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING flag added to CreateFileA and CreateFileW calls on a specific pipe name. This shim will be removed in the future and the implementation will be ported to another shim. - The app installs kernel mode device driver LIKECDN2.sys and system freezes when this device driver - is run on Whistler. - This driver is calling a PASSIVE level only API at DISPATCH level. The miniport driver should not call any API which is not exported from scsiport.lib. The offending call here is ZwClose. - Hard blocking this application. - The app installs kernel mode device driver LIKECDN2.sys and system freezes when this device driver - is run on Whistler. When this is reproed, there is no way to recover. - System cannot be booted even in safe mode. - The problem is that the application is calling the function ScsiPortGetPhysicalAddress on a device that is not a master device and therefore has no physical addresses. When we fail the ScsiPortGetPhysicalAddress call, the application ignores the failure return value and then tries to process a buffer of items where each item size is 0. - Hard blocking this application. - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive an apphelp message stating there are known problems with the app. - Multiple executables exist for the suite. Adding the others installed with the suite. - Application AVs when trying to analyze a chemical formula Win95VersionLie takes care of the error - Application AVs when trying to perform a MM2 analysis EmulateHeap takes care of the error - EmulateHeap causes app to receive an error message it normally doesn't like. Corrected with an app specific shim ChemOffice which blocks the error message. - EmulateHeap needed USER32.DLL to be excluded. The app corrupts the heap structure with the USER32.DLL included and the heap crashes during one of the subsequent frees usually. - Autorun crashes Fixed with EmulateCDFS - App tries to create a window with unsupported styles - App is calling WinExec with " mplaynow.exe". Applying EmulateCreateProcess removes the leading space and therefore launches the app successfully. - USB sound not mapped to preferred device. Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice shim. - Version error during DXSetup 7.0a included with Chessmaster 8000 Fixed with Win95VersionLie - USB sound not mapped to preferred device. Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice shim. - This version is designed for Windows 9x and not compatible with NT. Some versions block Windows XP Setup. Flagging all versions up to and including 4.* - This application can't display send a attached file and doesn't display a button for my collection. Update module will be released. - SHARP requested that to appshelp the app and to list into the upgrade report as incompatible app. - There are no unique files for matching info, so we need to use SIZE and CHECKSUM for data1.cab and data.tag. - The app need to be reinstalled after migration to work properly. - After reinstallation the app is working properly. - The app has a binary logon.ocx which uses sub-classed editbox as password editbox. It does not hook all messages (whistler seems has more message than win2k's), so when the mouse drags through it, the password typed will be shown as plain text, the fix is to apply ES_PASSWORD to this specific EditBox. - The application has two problems. 1. it is expecting metric value. it is ok in win9x and win2k but it's not the case in winXP. 2. the application calls CreateIpForwardEntry with MIB_IPPROTO_LOCAL. it will fail in winXP. the application should use MIB_IPPROTO_NETMGMT. - bug 390469 is re-activated due to app has a newer version of software change BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION="99.90.0.1" to UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION="99.90.2.1" Sub-PM has been notified to contact vendor about the issue - Changed the matching file information for the migration entry such that it matches even the latest 99.90.2.1 product version. - Application specifies that it doesn't support Windows NT - Win 95 version lie takes care of the error - The first entry only takes care of the version error for the autorun. Win95VersionLie is also needed for the actual installer which happens to be a wildcard. - The application would display a DirectX media error and abort the installation. Win2000VersionLie takes care of the problem. - After a migration from Win9x to Whistler videoplayback functionality is lost via DXVA, yet the decoder does still function after migration. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be reinstalled when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - This Network Driver will cause Whistler to blue screen. - Modified the matching criteria for Win9x migration and also added matching entries for NT migration. - Modified the entries to use the PatchAvailable template. Also added a new entry for setup under XP to block install. - Changed NT migration matching info to stop blocking 3.5 - App installs drivers that cause Whistler to Blue Screen. - Modified the existing information for the Win9x migration and also added information to apphelp the individual executables installed with the application. I've also created an entry to flag the application during migration from NT. - Replace the existing message with NotAsExpected. - Modified version information to not include 5.0.0.12 as per the Net teams request. - App fails to initialize setup.exe. Needs win95VersionLie. - App fails to let setup run on various large capacity drives. Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace. - App would fail to retore surfaces after returning from an alt-tab. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab. - Application opens waveOutDevice 0 expecting to get preferred device, device 0 might not be capable of playing the sound; the correct device is the WAVE_MAPPER. - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - Autorun screen was missing background bitmap - The .ini file contained comments which were not handled under NT - Setup would not reboot computer after install - Supplying the proper permissions under NT is necessary, accomplished via EnableRestarts.dll - The bitmap is missing from the autorun screen. NT does not properly handle the comments in AUTORUN.INF, which is where the bitmap is specified. - Running the app on an 8-bit display would crash or hang, force display to 640x480x16. - Due to the variety of versions for this app I have changed the matching info to include all versions of the application that I was able to get a hold of. - App needs updated VB bits from MS web site. - ported from Win2k - Removed CleanSweep 3 entries from MIGDB.INX and added them here. - For versions 4.5 and below - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Removed CleanSweep 4 entries from MIGDB.INX and added them here, broken out by version (4.0, 4.1, 4.5). - 4.1 installs a defective APITRAP.DLL that use AppInit_DLLs (the USER32 backdoor into every process on the system). - PrintShop Deluxe 5.0 would state that there were no printers available when trying to print a project. - This is fixed with EmulatePrinter. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Shortcuts not removed during uninstall. Fixed with CorrectFilePathsUninstall - need to include the exe explicitly. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. Clipbrd.exe will be removed post WinXP, thus we do not want invest resources to make it FUS aware. - Desktop shortcut not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - App produced not supported under WinNT error when selecting install Win95VersionLie solves the problem - EnableRestarts to catch reboot prompt after DX installation. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - Removed Filesize and Checksum from matching criteria - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - App won't install unless it's in 256 color mode. - Use WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256 NTVDM flag to force 256 colors Clue has time calibration problem (it takes diff of 2 TimeGetTime (which is zero) and uses it to divide - App exploits a win9x hack to get the resource id using GetWindowText - The shim simulates this behaviour - During installation the user is asked if they wish to install Adobe Acrobat Reader. If they do install the reader the installation hangs because the installation for the reader never terminates. This is fixed with CorrectFilePaths redirecting executable called by CreateProcess. - Added matching information to handle the _INS576 version of InstallShield - Applied EmulateGetCommandLine and CorretFilePaths to Weblink.exe - Fixed matching info to match all known versions - Version 2.0: In Win9x, setup installs WinG files into %windir%\system folder. But after migration, the app looks for those files into %windir%\system32. Since it can't find them, it asks user to install the app again. SyncSystemAndSystem32 fixes this. - Added ForceTemporaryModeChange to prevent 256 color desktop settings: which look terrible with Luna - Added CorrectFilePaths.dll to fix the Adobe Installation problem. - Modified the matching information. - App produced insufficient disk space error when installing to drive with more than 2GB of free space. - If drive contains more than 2GB return 2GB of available space when GetDiskFreeSpace() is called - During installation the user is asked if they wish to install Adobe Acrobat Reader. If they do install the reader the installation hangs because the installation for the reader never terminates. This is fixed with CorrectFilePaths changing the executable called by CreateProcess. - This comes with Clue Finders 5th Grade, 6th Grade, and Reading Adventures. (Disk 2) - Application would not initiate setup with setup.exe CorrectFilePaths with the COMMAND_LINE starts setupapp.exe which installs as expected. - Changed CorrectFilePaths command line to point to install\setupapp.exe. Weblink.exe's current directory is the root of the CD on W2K. - Eased matching criteria - During installation the user is asked if they wish to install Adobe Acrobat Reader. If they do install the reader the installation hangs because the installation for the reader never terminates. This is fixed with CorrectFilePaths redirecting executable called by CreateProcess. - App setup wouldn't run correctly since it did windows version checking. Win95VersionLie handles this. - App is using priviliged instructions (IN). IgnoreException handles this. - Overruns DirectDraw surface allocations - The fix is to pad the allocations: DirectDraw uses LocalAlloc for system memory surfaces, so we only need KERNEL32 (which contains LocalAlloc) - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation -> EmulateHeap - Updated matching info - Added apphelp entry to point users to patch - Removed EmulateHeap entry - Prevents the loader from coming up with a message for missing linkage by faking the CreateProcessA() call. - Appspecific SHIM for CoffeeCup HTML Editor 7.0. Added IgnoreLoadLibrary to ignore a call to OLE2.DLL - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Does not add shortcuts to start menu for all users. Applying ProfilesSetup layer - App was hanging in Ole32!OleUninitialize as it was being called from DllMain. This SHIM is an appspecific SHIM that fakes OleUninitialize. This is a regresion from Win2K. - Changed the app specific SHIM to a layer SHIM IgnoreOleUninitialize - Version 8.5 and 8.7 both had problems with the Temp files as they used to Create them and try creating them again without closing or deleting that file. - Loosened the matching info to catch all the versions of 8.5 and 8.7 - ported from Win2k - shortcuts not created for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Fix apps broken by ISAPI lockdown - Application can't find IIS 6.0 Web Server - Main EXE throws Exception P. Need to ignore. - Alt-tab causes graphics corruption - Autorun requires ProfilesGetFolderPath so the autorun recognizes that it's installed - Main game has palette corruption on return from task switch - fixed with IgnoreAltTab. - Flight Mania - Comanche Gold v.1.0 - Autorun requires ProfilesGetFolderPath so the Mission Editor recognizes that the game is installed. - Shortcuts not copied to All users start menu fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Joystick details not grabbed from registry with proper permissions - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - After an upgrade to Whistler from Win9x the application fails to work properly. Early in gameplay everything blows up and the mission is over, repeatedly. The following entry adds it to the list of apps to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading to Whistler. - Shortcuts not copied to All users start menu fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - File size is left blank in ARP instead of 330 MB Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - Added upgrade reinstall apphelp for winnt - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - Version lying - No description available for this history entry. - Failed to uninstall shortcuts, fixed with InstallShield Uninstallation entry - Autorun tried to launch write.exe to view readme. Use CorrectFilePaths to redirect to wordpad. - Version lie during setup Fixed with Win98VersionLie - DX error during setup Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - The wrongly authored languageID was modified. - Added AppsHelp to flag a compatibily issue on install with Windows Server 2003 due to IIS lockdown. - Intended to catch all variants of CS 2000. - Added Upgrade message for CS 2000 - Added AppsHelp to flag a compatibily issue on install with Windows Server 2003 due to IIS lockdown. - Intended to catch all variants of CS 2002. - Compaq Diagnostic icons have been removed from the Control panel after upgrading from Win9x to WinXP with the application installed The application needs to be reinstall after migration. - Added components to appropriate MIGDB sections to preserve them during migration - Client Management agents that fail to install on Windows Server 2003 Servers, needs Win2000VersionLie - Matching info had extraneous characters - 16 bit application - Deck component was opening a 32 bit help file with winhelp. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_USEWINHELP32 wow compat flag. App will now use winhlp32 to display the help file. - App setup did Windows version checking and can't handle it correctly. It unexpectedly decided not to install program folder. Win95VersionLie fixes this. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - When supermode is selected an MCI error MessageBox pops up. This is causing focus problem as the MessageBox is hidden behind the Supermode window. Fixed it with IgnoreMessageBox shim. - EmulatePrinter was needed to correct problem with PrintDlgA. - App setup did Windows version checking and installed empty AOL program group. In Win9x, it never installs any AOL program group/items. Since it can't handle OS version correctly, it needs Win95VersionLie to prevent it to do unexpected empty AOL program group installation. - The application would hang on uninstall. There are two different setups, 16-bit and a 32-bit versions. Removing the existing version lie takes care of the uninstall hang but an AOL program group showing up again as stated above. - A new shim was created, ComptonsBible, to take care of the AOL program group. - Also modified the matching info, removed size and checksum. - This app tries to play a .avi file and when it is in 256 color mode (which should be always, since it also has the ForceDisplayMode shim set on it). The mci code gets very upset when the following sequence happens: - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - mciSendCommand(1, MCI_PLAY, ...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - The last two calls cause mci to put up an error dialog since the avi is already playing. So the patch below simply nop's out the function that makes the two MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE calls after we already told the window to play. - There are multiple, virtually identical, SKUs of this app. App needs force 256 color mode. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - 256 color mode required for portion of game Fixed with ForceDisplayMode - This app tries to play a .avi file and when it is in 256 color mode (which should be always, since it also has the ForceDisplayMode shim set on it). The mci code gets very upset when the following sequence happens: - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - mciSendCommand(1, MCI_PLAY, ...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - SendMessage(hwndMCI, MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE,...); - The last two calls cause mci to put up an error dialog since the avi is already playing. So the patch below simply nop's out the function that makes the two MCIWNDM_SETPALETTE calls after we already told the window to play. - 2nd XML on this app in the database was interfering with this entry Fixed by combining the two entries. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - App needs 256 color mode to run its 3d flight mode. - 16 bit executables removed: atlas16.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256 compat flag) - Version errors on install Fixed with Win98VersionLie - disk space error Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App hogs the NIC resource, making it impossible to run multiple sessions of Compuserve with FUS. - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Broke out CompuServe into 3.0, 4.0 - Broke out CompuServe into 3.0, 4.0 - Added an entry to apphelp the application under Whistler. - App hogs the NIC resource, making it impossible to run multiple sessions of Compuserve2000 with FUS. - Revised matching info at AOL's request - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - App hogs the NIC resource, making it impossible to run multiple sessions of CS6 with FUS. - After talking at length with AOL, here is their versioning scheme: CompuServe 6.0.0 is compatible with NT at the same level as 5.0 Niagara. The 6.0.2 client, which will be fully WinXP compliant and take care of FUS issues. - AOL has requested that pre-6.0.2 clients have Win2000VersionLie applied to them. - Added AOLFindBundledInstaller to redirect installer/client EXE to bundled installer if it exists. - The application needs to be reinstall after migration User has insufficient rights to run configsafe. - After upgrade from NT, Application freezes on attempt to restore a snapshot of harddrive/system files and can't be shut down properly. - This app causes a blue screen after changing video drivers. - Added entry for NT migration to WinXP. - ported from Win2k -Apphelp Entry. App av's when accessing online help. Fixed with Vendors patch. - App installs program group differently in Win9x and NT. In Win9x, it installs "Cookbook 10_000 Recipes" program group. In WinNT, it installs "Cookbook 10,000 Recipes" program group. This will cause problem if it migrated from Win9x. Uninstallation will not be able to find the appropriate program group name and just simply says uninstallation was successful. Win95VersionLie fixes this. - App is using a registry vaule to get the path to cookies. This value points to the correct cookies path on win9x but not on NT. We use VirtualRegistry to give it the correct reg value. - Shortcuts not placed in all users startmenu Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Unless the app thinks it is on NT4, it will generate an error message during setup for a VB service pak. Ver lying prevents unnecessary message. There are no files to be matched. - App does not check for returned string type when calling GetDisplayNameof. - System32 ignoring started failing this app again. Fixed by explicity including a module from system32. - The App has some RTF files, seems the font and charset specified not correct in it. When later on riched20 do ANSI-Unicode Code conversion, it used English code-page. Fix this by createing an app specific shim checking the 1st parameter passed to MultiByteToWideChar by richedit, if it's English, try to use CP_ACP, which is always safe. - Korean app has same problem, it's too late to change this shim to apply all language version's CorelDraw, we will re-visit issue after client RTM - CHT version of this app has same problem. I have combined all the entries to a single entry such that it matches all the language versions of this app. - CorelDraw10 has similar problem during setup. During conversion from ANSI to Unicode it is using codepage 1252. - Changed APP NAME from CorelDRAW 9 to CorelDRAW since adding version 10. - Correcting codepage of the package to properly display Japanese strings - CNapier and EugenD from MSI team helped in getting this fix out - The app does not aware about REG_EXPAND_SZ registry that exists in HKLM\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\wordpad.exe\shell\open\command. It didn't call ExpandEnvironmentStrings since it "assumes" only REG_SZ being returned. HandleRegExpandSzRegistryKeys.dll will expand the environment string for the app. - The App has some RTF files, seems the font and charset specified not correct in it. When later on riched20 do ANSI-Unicode Code conversion, it used English code-page. Fix this by createing an app specific shim checking the 1st parameter passed to MultiByteToWideChar by richedit, if it's English, try to use CP_ACP, which is always safe. Nonclient theming: child dialog of main window becomes clipped along bottom edge. shim notes: This applet is part of the Corel Wordperfect Suite. The .exe does not carry a version resource. - This control panel applet is being listed in the upgrade report as not supported in WinXP. The following entry will keep the applet from being listed. - QuickTime AV'd while searching for previous versions. Fixed by LimitFindFile. - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Fixed by version lie. - App doesn't get a WM_ACTIVATEAPP as a result of the Safedisc window coming up first. - Fixed by sending WM_ACTIVATEAPP when the window becomes available. - App does not create start menu shortcuts for all users. Fixed by applying ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Application specifies that it must be installed and run under Win95 - Win95 version lying solves the problem - Setup not matching. Possibly two media with setup at different directory level. I'm leaving in the existing matching info, and adding a new matching set that matches the media I have. - App is trying to use NULL for printer name in multiple APIs. Needs EmulatePrinter to fix. - App only enumerates local printers; added EmulatePrinter to fix. - Loosened matching info for first Installshield entry. - Install loops Fixed with Win98VersionLie - App can't open using remote print server because it's passing PRINTER_ALL_ACCESS into DesiredAccess flag rather than SERVER_ALL_ACCESS flag. This is not a problem in Win9x since this flag is ignored in Win9x. EmulatePrinter.dll will set NULL this flag. - 16 bit application - Main app needed 256 color mode to run. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256 wow compat flag. - App refuses to install if display depth greater than 24 bpp - App installer, for some reason, decides to delete the executable at the end of the install, unless, of course, you claim the OS version is Win95 - When app exits, it sets display mode to 60Hz. Ouch! - Application opens Wave Device 0, expecting preferred device. Should use device -1 to allow WaveMapper to choose the best device. - This fixes both v1.0 and v1.1 - FindExecutable is broken - Removed size and checksum from matching info, to catch mulitple versions - Application was calling Program Manager's DDE DeleteGroup command which was not waiting for the window to appear before returning. DelayShowGroup corrects this situation. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - Printfac was shimmed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice to address some sound issues. This is being fixed on the multimedia side. - 16 bit executables removed: Printfac.exe (WaveOutUsePreferredDevice removed) - NT service pack version lie and capture of invalid message which caused application to ding (and ding and ding...) - Update of matching information. Shim was corrected to fix a recursion problem. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - App AV when user choose File-Send to Word Processor menu. The latest download to upgrade to Version 8.0.1 fixes this problem. - App is using RICHED32.DLL which in Windows XP thunked by RICHED20.DLL. In Windows XP, printed text get truncated if it's too long. In Win9x, printed text is wrapped into the next line. Apphelp message is provided to notify user about this. - Added apphelp message for app setup. - Fixed matching info for Resume Maker Deluxe 7.0. The old one is weak and resulting in duplicate with Create Resume Quick And Easy 3. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Shortcuts not removed by uninstall - After Migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - Drivers will not migrate from 9X so we will tell the user where to get updated drivers to make this app work again. - After Migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - User needs to upgrade to at least Playcenter 2.50. The update can be found on the vendors’ web site. - Heap problems fixed with EmulateHeap - Added new RCenter shim to handle bad pointers to lstrcmpiA - App doesn't handle WM_DISPLAYCHANGE for low resolution modes - Need to give user warning on install that they need updated drivers and software and let the setup program work to install other packages - Need to give user warning to reinstall their drivers and software So they will work after upgrade. -Need to expand where the warning comes from - App installs shortcuts into %windir%\profiles\all users\start menu\programs instead of %alluserprofile%\start menu\programs. Note that since app passes \windows\profiles\all users\start menu\programs to CreateDirectory, we can't use %windir% in CorrectFilePaths. - Japanese Version - Can not launch in limited user account. - Win95 version lie - New version, uses random ._MP setup name -- doesn't require version lie. - Error during setup on DX7 install. Fixed by ForceDXSetupSuccess.dll. - Display corruption on alt tab Fixed with ignoreAlttab - Added shim to fix synchronization issues on fast machines - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - App hangs in loop trying to mathch a printer listed in their xtalk.ini file - We force them to use the default printer the app passes in. - This bug is actually in the NT4 bug database but the tool doesn't like that value. - The application would display a failed under OS in the system requirement check. This is taken care of with Win95VersionLie. - The multiple entries for _ins5576._mp are needed due to being able to start the installation from three different directories. - Several versions of Cryptsys.exe are totally incompatible with windows XP and destabilize XP by writing over entries in the registry with invalid values. The installation of cryptsys is not necessary for most apps to properly install so upon calling these invalid exe's we will just exit. - The application would create a shortcut in the start menu pointing to %CKDir% which is to be expanded to the installation directory for the game. Under Win9x the application expands the path and puts the shortcut in the All Users folder. Under Whistler the application places the shortcut in the specific user folder and fails to expand the key when placed here. - Win9xVersionLie causes the shortcut to be expanded and placed in the All User directory as under Win9x. - Setup.exe was shimmed with the PropogateHistory.dll. This is no longer necessary and has been removed from the XML. - Under Win2K, IRSETUP.EXE current working directory is a temp directory... i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\user.domain\Local Setting\temp. - Matching file names were Crystal Key files on the CD that have been replaced by matching file criteria on IRSETUP.EXE in the temp directory. - Changed Win95VersionLie to CorrectFilePaths - Removed filesize and checksums - IRSETUP is a generic setup program (Indigo Rose Setup). The previous entries were matching on this, not Crystal Key's setup. This causes problems with lots of other apps. - Reverted back to James' original entry which used PropagateProcessHistory and Win95VersionLie. - Turkish folder name install prevent launching app. App calls OemToChar and break the path for LoadLibraryA. - The setup needs a major version below 5. It checks the return DWORD of GetVersion call and uses some funky logic to figure out whether it is the right version. Somehow this seems to work on Win2k SP2 but will not work on Win2K, SP1 and above. - Win95/98 or NT4 SP5 Version lie will fix this. -Ported to XPSP1 - ported from Win2k - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App throws up error messages when 2 user sessions play game. - App av's when attempting to run ASIO Multimedia Setup or ASIO DirectX Setup. - This application installs different binaries on Win9x than on NT. A migration entry has been added to flag the application during migration and force the user to uninstall the application before upgrading. We are forcing here because the user will not be able to properly uninstall/reinstall after migration and thus will never be able to run Cubase on that system again. - 256 color mode is required - Start Menu icons not created in all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - On install the application was not detecting an up-to-date version of DirectX. FileVersionInfoLie takes care of this problem. - From the autorun menu the application could not find DDHELP.EXE and was forcing the user to install DirectX. CorrectFilePaths with the given command line takes care of this problem. This problem exists in other Lucas Apps. - During gameplay the application was getting a corrupt pallet when launching in 8-bit resolution. WinExecRaceConditionFix eliminates the wait state between the termination of the first process and the start of the second which is causing the corruption. - Modified to clean up matching info. - Graphics corruption on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - App tries to create web links into %windir%\FAVORITES which is not a correct place to put shortcuts into Favorites folder in Windows NT. CorrectFilePaths fixes this by change it into proper place (Documents and Settings\All Users\Favorites). - App setup loader needs PropagateProcessHistory to include cdrom path into matching info search paths. - Make this app work with profiles - App AVs while exiting setup wizard. Fixed with IgnoreException. - The 16-bit setup.exe spawns a ._mp file with a random name. The ._mp requires version lie. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer - Tries to launch %windir%\write.exe, corrected to %windir%\system32\write.exe - Has a problem where a path being misbuilt, fixed with CorrectFilePath's Command_Line - Last XML change added incorrect inclusion/exclusion information - No description available for this history entry. - With Luna on the Sierra online setup screen is permantly minimized and wont install the game. Fixed by applying WOWCF2_FIXLUNATRAYRECT. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - App requires a versionlie to run - ported from Win2k - After migrating from Win9x with CyberPatrol 4.0 installed, the following error is displayed on bootup or when CyberPatrol is launched: NT16.DLL is Missing. Reinstalling CyberPatrol corrects the error. - Bookmarks are not added to IE favorites when selected durring setup. Fixed with the CorrectFilePaths.dll. - Not enough Hard drive space on game launch Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace.dll - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - The app is setting the thread priority to higher than normal. Applying IgnoreScheduler to normalize the thread priorities. - After updating the app with the available patch, the fixes no longer work because the matching files are removed. Also, the ICD file is removed as well, so the shims need to be applied to the main binary which replaces the ICD file. - Previous entry matches both patched and unpatched versions of the game applying these shims to the unpatched daikatana.exe prevents safedisc from launching the application. - During installation the application attempts to match the version on D3drgbxf.dll to version number 3a of DirectX. FileVersionInfoLie remedies this. - After the installation completes the screen mode changes do not revert to their original settings. ForceTemporaryModeChange fixes this. - Note that two sets of matches are necessary for splash.exe, one for install and one for runtime. - FileVersionLie was not checking against DirectX3a properly, command line added. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - FileVersionLie no longer needs command line - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Apply old LoadLibrary search order to DateV apps. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Start menu shortcuts are only created in the profile from which the app is installed. - The issue was solved after applying ProfilesSetup layer. - Setup must run on Win95. Lie it. - App has flashing screen after returning from alt+tab -Dazzel USB Digital Video Creator enumerates but not accessable from any application but it's own - Application needs to be uninstalled then reinstalled on Windows XP. Only db2.exe and db2cmd.exe on the start menu have version information. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup - Application throws NT version error dialog on install. Win95VersionLie fixes this. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Fixed matching info (removed filesize and checksums), - start menu shortcut not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Black screen with cursor appears when game is launched, nothing else happens. - During installation the application tries to hardcode shortcuts to %windir%\desktop and %windir%\start menu. Now they are created in %user%\desktop and %user%\start menu - During uninstallation the application tries to remove shortcuts from %windir%\desktop and %windir%\start menu. Now they are removed from %user%\desktop and %user%\start menu - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App crashes when you alt-tab out of game Fixed with ignorealttab - App needed IgnoreAltTabEx instead of IgnoreAltTab - Fail A3D.dll for this app so music will work on Aureal sound cards. When a3d is failed it defaults to basic audio. - No description available for this history entry. - During installation the path to the helpfile is pointed to winhelp.exe which produces an error saying that a newer version of help is needed to view the file. CorrectFilePaths fixes this problem by changing the shortcut to use winhlp32.exe instead of Winhelp.exe. - App exits to OS after an access violation caused by their rendering algorithm referencing an out of bounds lookup value. - Ignoring the read access violation safely fixes this. - Loosened matching info to catch other media. - App AV's when printing if there is no default printer or using a network printer, caused by passing null printer handle and bad printer info to SetPrinter. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - App AV's when using local printer, caused by lack of PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT option in EnumPrinters in w2k and app usage of deleted printer info. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - Application would error during DXSetup. ForceDxSetupSuccess makes application believe setup was sucessful. - After installation the app would not restart the computer. EnableRestarts provides the proper privliges to restart. - App crashes on launch Fixed with IgnoreException - Preview movies do not launch - Minimize causes app to crash - Shortcut not installed to All Users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Removed Filesize and Checksum - Fix from Dell: App AVs on termination, fixed with Win95 version lie Dell OpenManage Version Assistant - Managed Node is not compatible with Windows Server 2003 Dell OpenManage Version Assistant is not compatible with Windows Server 2003 - the matching registry key indicates the Perc2 installer for NT4 and Win2K. - Dell’s installer puts down different bits on Win2K vs. Windows Server 2003 so DELL wants them to always remove it and then reinstall on Windows Server 2003 - ported from Win2k - This app writes a value to the RunOnce registry key with a path like C:\Program Files\Borland . - On an IA64 box, this becomes C:\Program Files (x86)\Borland. Since it is not surrounded by quotes, the runonce parser parses this as "C:\Program Files" (x86)\Borland. - Putting quotes around the registry entry fixes this. - App was sending bad pointer to GetFileAttributes. - App was looking for its links in the user folders, so redirecting to the "all users" folder fixed the problem. - App was sending bad pointer to GetFileAttributes. - App was looking for its links in the user folders, so redirecting to the "all users" folder fixed the problem. - Win95Versionlie was needed to make the app run in H/W mode. ForceSimpleWindow was needed to make the app window simple (without caption) so that the USER guys don't deativate us. - Added a generic matching info to catch all versions of Delta Force 2 - App shows two mouse cursors when run second user sesssion. - Removed the BinkPlay.exe and made it a seperate so that any app that runs Binkplay.exe should be able to catch it. - Also added the EXE_LINK to the 'BinkPlay.exe'. - Per test request, this app gets BAM2 -> app dies on return to welcome screen. - Autorun.exe was not highlighting the Start option after the app was installed. This was FIXED with CorrectFilePaths and HandleAPIExceptions. - Binkplay.exe was giving the Shrinker Error message and the demo was not played. This was FIXED with 'Shrinker' SHIM. - Install failure fixed with WinXPVersionLie - To install to ProfilesGetFolderPaths - To fix uninstall, CorrectFilePathsUninstall - To fix command line, EmulateCommandLine - ForceDXSetupSuccess for DX7a installer - To fix version check, Win95VersionLie - Corrected matching file's directory of _INS5176._MP - Add entry for 2 "setup.exe"s - Add IgnoreException shim to installed EXEs - Remove SIZE and CHECKSUM from matching info - Add more matching files - Wing error on game launch Fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32 - 16 bit shim purging. Removed XML entries for 16 bit applications. Syncsystemandsystem32 was applied to a 16bit setup program to copy binaries from system directory to system32. When the WinG32.dll is loaded, it checks its install path. If it finds that it is not installed in system32, it posts a messagebox and fails. WinG32SysToSys32 fixes this problem by altering the path string. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (SyncSystemAndSystem32 replaced with WinG32SysToSys32 applied to Gigant.exe) - Modified matching and added additional entry to catch multiple versions of the executable. - With the minimal install this app has very little to match on. - Application installation needs Win95VersionLie and ForceDXSetupSuccess. - Archive uncompression screen background was not being erased to white. - Change needed in matching info to cover all SKUs of the game. - MindSpring installation needed EnableRestarts - Game UI cursor does not have focus after task switch - Ignore priv mode instructions - App hangs on task switch - Registration AV caused by uninitialized variable - Ported from Win2k's migdb.inf entry - Changed matching info per Siemens' instructions - Setup needs the ProductName to be 2000 instead of XP in the registry. - App would fail to install because of OS version - Setup would fail because DXSetup would not start - This network driver causes Whistler to Blue Screen.

Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx. - Replaced CorrectFilePaths shim with ProfilesSetup layer. - Initialize CreateProcessA STARTUPINFO lpTitle which was not initialized by the app this fix should apply for V3.1 and V3.3. exequiet.exe size is different in the following three cases. - Windows 95 version lie, EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace, and also ForceDXSetupSuccess with a version of 5 rev 155 - When alt-tabbed out of, the app would prevent any desktop objects from responding to click events when no other app is open. - Fixed with IgnoreAltTabEx - Program groups not installed for all users - App says D3D is not supported on NT4, so 3DFX/Glide is required for gameplay Fixed with Win95VersionLie This application makes a wrong folder in start menu as the installation. - Shortcuts not added to all users Fixed with correctfilepaths - The pervious matching info didn't work when you ran the install off a network drive. updated the matching info. - Crashes on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - The Enduser will need to download the latest update in order for this to work on XP. Added matching info for apphelp and win9x migration. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Resintall to update drivers from Win9x to Win2k - Changed the App Title from DirecPC to DirecPC 3.0 - Changed matching info to avoid conflict with other DirecPC entries - Adding an Apphelp informing users to turn ofo QoS Package Scheduling. - Apphelp - flagging autsetup.exe instead of webcast.exe - App is incompatible with Windows XP. - Added entry for DirectCD v1.0. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Replaced matching info to catch less than 2.5d and also added entries for migration. - It appears that the BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION on DIRECTCD.EXE does not reflect the version of the app, however it is incremented for each revision and so UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION is appropriate for the Runtime/Migration entry. - Added NT4 version lie to Easy CD Creator Setup to allow DirectCD to be set up. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Removed SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW - Improved matching info to include v2.0. - Added entry for 3.x to catch migration. - Added apphelp entry for 3.x - Added utility programs to migration linkstub - Added matching on driver for runtime AppHelp so we stop AppHelp'ing if they installed the latest driver. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Removed SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW - Provided Apphelp for incompatibility warning for DirectCD 5 up to version 5.01. (5.01 patch can be downloaded from Roxio's website). When DirectCD 5 is installed, it disables functionalities of some IDE drives. - 5.02 works fine. So don't say it's incompatible, just say that you must reinstall after Win9x migration. Also, only AppHelp runtime if the latest drivers are not installed. - Moved DirectCD component NT Mig message from Easy CD Creator 5.0 to reduce user confusion. - App would fail to start because desktop needs to be 8 bit - Also app needs DIBDRVIMAGESIZEZERO flag which was generically applied before however, since specific entry overrides this generic flag, add it here too - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DirectX 7.0 setup cannot handle Whistler version credentials. Since a higher version ships with Whistler, this fix just version lies and automatically succeeds the setup. - DirectX 7.0a setup cannot handle Whistler version credentials. Since a higher version ships with Whistler, this fix just version lies and automatically succeeds the setup. NOTE: there are different product versions depending on the language. Also the developers sometimes renamed DirectX7a when it suited them, you will need seperate entries for those. - Added all other versions. - DX Media 6.0 link does not function from autorun of Heavy Metal FAKK 2. No other matching criteria was available. NT4Versionlie.dll fixes this problem - Loosened DXMedia matching criteria for a slightly different .exe - Version error during DXSetup 7.0a included with Chessmaster 8000 Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Version error during DX setup. (from application: The Longest Journey) Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Changed shim on DXMedia to Win2000VersionLie from WinNT4SP5VersionLie - Changed shim on DXMedia to Win98VersionLie from Win2000VersionLie.

Use ForceDXSetupSuccess shim to fix - App tries to read some reg keys that only exist on win9x. Fixed with the VirtualRegistry shim (with a couple of bug fixes for VirtualRegistry). - App is giving acmStreamConvert too big source length which causes the decoder to write past the end of the destination buffer. Added the CorrectACMArgs shim to fix it. - App also has threading problem caused by the sound thread (too high priority), fixed by the IgnoreScheduler shim. - App shows a white (or whatever your default window background color is) screen when starting up which is inconsistent behavior from on 9x because on 9x it doesn't draw anything if the app's window class doesn't have a background brush. Added the DirtTrackRacing shim to fix it. - Replaced ForceThreadPriority with IgnoreScheduler - Readme shortcut points to wrong path. Used CFP - Previous entry for _INS5176._MP was not working - Unable to launch Readme from the start menu shortcut Fixed with Correctfilepaths - Loosened matching info by removing filesize and checksums - App looses mouse cursor when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Alt tab causing display corruption Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - DX installation problem. Use ForceDXSetupSuccess shim to fix - App tries to read some reg keys that only exist on win9x. Fixed with the VirtualRegistry shim (with a couple of bug fixes for VirtualRegistry). - App is giving acmStreamConvert too big source length which causes the decoder to write past the end of the destination buffer. Added the CorrectACMArgs shim to fix it. - App also has threading problem caused by the sound thread (too high priority), fixed by the IgnoreScheduler shim. - App shows a white (or whatever your default window background color is) screen when starting up which is inconsistent behavior from on 9x because on 9x it doesn't draw anything if the app's window class doesn't have a background brush. Added the DirtTrackRacing shim to fix it. - App cannot be restored once minimized. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Diskeeper 6.0 inserts itself as the snap-in for Disk Defragmenter. When uninstalled launching Disk Defragmenter results in an error stating that Diskeeper failed to initialize. Apphelping the installation .msi's associated with the application. - Changing from Incompatilbe to PatchAvailble. - Current entries will not catch JPN version, so I just add JPN entries for Pro and Server. - App replaces disk defragmenter. Needs reinstall after upgrade. - This app is incompatible after migration to Whistler from W98. - This application is incompatible with the version of WindowsXP. Fatal error occurs when attempt to launch "Application Uninstaller". - This entry is what to appshelp the app and to list into the update report as incompatible app. - Need to add matching files to migration the section because didn't hook any programs in start up. - INSTWTCH.EXE(Ver 4) has no unique file for MI since this file does not have other file info except size and checksum, so we need to use size and checksum. - Need to add Appshelp and Upgrade report entries for Ver7. - There is the same issue on Ver7 which is cuase of blue screen. - App setup did windows version checking. Win95VersionLie handles this. - App has display corruption after task switch Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - DX installation problem. Use ForceDXSetupSuccess shim to fix - Main window doesn't handle WM_PAINT messages. - Added DinosaurActivityCenter shim to handle them. - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - App checked the OS version during installation - fixed by using Win98VersionLie - App setup did windows version checking. Win95VersionLie handles this. - The application's palette is all wrong when returning from the desktop (or another app). Applying the PaletteRestore shim to this fixes the problem. - Shortcuts not copied to all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX setup error during install Fxied with ForceDXSetupSuccess - The D-Link driver doesn't work. Block the setup.exe that install the driver - This is requested from NEC via OEM Recon team. Need to describe into upgrade report. - Prevent ACMSETUP.EXE from being added to the shim cache. - Apphelp to notify users of a new patch to fix an install problem. - Bad calculation logic depending on a file being in memory addresses > 2GB as on win9x means we need a special shim to fix the bad cases. - NT version error during setup. Fixed with WinNT4SP5VersionLie - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry creates an apphelp message, stating that it doesn't function properly under this version of Windows and suggests for the user to visit the vendor site. - The entry takes care of versions 3.82 and 5.0. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Adding apphelp, vendor is not supporting 4.2 on Windows Server 2003 - Was giving menus and dialog boxes in French. Even the default file path had French in it. This is corrected by EmulateGetProfileString. - Application needed app specific shim DragonLandFestival to modify parameters to acmStreamOpen which were causing sound difficulties. - Requires ddraw emulation because it assumes that a 16 bit surface has pitch 2x width. This is a bad assumption for most newer video cards. - This is an older game, so emulation isn't that big a deal. - During installation the application tries to install DirectX and produces an error. This is taken care of by ForceDXSetupSuccess. - DirectX installation through DXSetup.exe has same problem. - Added appshelp message to tell user to install SAPI4.0a. - InstallShield creates an invalid shortcut in Start menu. Win95VersionLie prevents this. - App is doing the right thing to not install SAPI 4 because it comes with the OS on w2k. - Well the speech group decided to remove it from whistler so we apphelp it. - This is a SAPI4.0 compliant application. Invoking speech TIP on its editor enables SAPI5 in the same app thread and causes natspeak.exe to fault in SAPI. - Win95VersionLie fixed the problems: - App setup installs an extra invalid Uninstall shortcut into program group. - User was unable to launch app due to windows version checking. - VirtualRegistry.dll fixed this problem: - Setup can not launch Wordpad to open readme file because app setup did not expand environment variable in REG_EXPAND_SZ type registry value. - Changed shim from EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace to EmulateCDFS. - Drakan.exe calls GetDiskFreeSpace to determine if the disk is a CDROM. It does this by checking to see if SectorsPerCluster==10 and BytesPerSector==800. Win2000 returns SectorsPerCluster==40 and BytesPerSector=200. The shim forces the values to be identical to Win9x - Corrected matching files. - When switching out to the shell, app keeps mouse focus. - Fail A3D.dll for this app so music will work on Aureal sound cards. When a3d is failed it defaults to basic audio. - The app is using wave device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, usb device never being used although it's a default wave device. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - Soft blocked app - Added Uninstall message for upgrade from Win2K - Custom nonclient area painting fights with themes; application 'toolbar windows' passes NCPAINT and NCACTIVATE messages to DefWindowProc, even after repositioning their client area, and the battle is joined. - Fixed by DisableThemes - As per DreamWeaver 3, DisableThemes. - Added DisableThemes to DreamWeaver UltraDev 4. - Getfocus returned NULL which finally was the cause for AV. It worked on 9x since some window always had the focus.The App Specific fix DrEye Returns Valid handle when Getfocus is called. Drive+ Ver1.5 might not function properly on this version of Windows. - Drivecopy 2.x can not handle NTFS 5.1 drives. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added matching info for migration from Win9x to WinXP. - Drive Image 4.0 cannot copy NTFS 5.1 drives. - Modified the existing entry due to it catching the 5.0 installation of the application. - Matching info was too loose still. Using the BMP because it is the same for all languages but contains "Drive Image 4.0" so it will change for a different version. - Shortcuts not created for all users. Fixed with correctfilepaths - Added migration message. - Added Drive Image Pro matching info since it also has problems creating NTFS drive images. - Using the BMP because it is the same for all languages but contains "Drive Image Pro 4.0" so it will change for a different version. - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - Install process failed to correctly create/locate registry keys which caused the autorun menu to fail to recognize that the app was installed. Fixed by Win95VersionLie. - A string valuable size error occures during the installation and unnecessary program groupe is created.

Applying the ProfilesSetup layer takes care of the problem. - There was also an entry for the quicktime installer for this application. This not only catches the QuickTime installation but the main installation as well. That entry has been removed and the fix has been added to the app entry. This takes care of both the app install and the QuickTime install. - App setup won't install due to windows version checking. Win95VersionLie handles this. - \setup.exe (16-bit) launches \install\setup32.exe which launches _Setup.exe. It extracts and spawned *._MP (32-bit). Both setup32.exe and *._MP did windows version checking. *._MP was extracted using random file name. It needs DerandomizeExeName. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Win95 version error on installshield - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - 16 bit installer needed derandomizeexename in order to apply a version lie to a spawned 32 bit installer. Turns out this wasn't needed. Removing the shim(s) did not cause any issues. - 16 bit executables removed: _Setup.exe (DerandomizeExeName removed. Wasn't necessary.) - Install of QuickTime failed with message about "string size". Fixed with Win95VersionLie. However, there were two install executables (Setup.exe, IS_Setup.exe) that needed PropagateProcessHistory that were located in different directorys.

Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - DX setup error during install Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Version error during install Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Flip32.exe has SMAP errors, but Flip16 works perfectly - Fixed by redirecting the EXE - Was receiving error: SEVERE - Item Query Failed, Win95 version lie solves problem - ported from Win2k - Removed old setup.exe entry and replaced with correct one with updated matching info - This app AV's upon launch from the Start Menu. EmulateHeap fixes this issue. - Cleaned up the matching info for the installation. - Included OLE32.DLL for the app. - This app is relying on the DLL MFCANS32.DLL which existed in Win98SE. This file doesn't exist on Win2K or WinXP. Prevent rs32pp_.exe from launching so it does not complain about it missing. And the app needs an apphelp to direct the end user to update to at least version 1.1h. - This app is relying on the DLL MFCANS32.DLL which existed in Win98SE. This file doesn't exist on Win2K or WinXP. Prevent rs32pp_.exe from complaining about this using IgnoreLoadLibrary. - This app is using NDIS 3 which is not supported under Whistler. It causes app to crash the system (BSOD). Providing an apphelp message for this. - Various problems fixed with layer shims - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - Installing the FP99 screen saver, has an error: Cannot copy OldMod32.dll. This error is caused because the app incorrectly checks the return code for LZInit() - Added PropagateProcessHistory.dll to catch _ins5576._MP - Autorun calls RegSetValueEx with bad parameters - virtualregistry fixes this. - They open the CD Rom and try to read files from it, forcing a STOP_AUDIO IOCTL fixes this. - Bad calculation logic depending on a file being in memory addresses > 2GB as on win9x means we need a special shim to fix the bad cases. - App tries to launch wordpad.exe using hard-coded C:\Progam Files... path. Use CFP to redirect. - Setup must run on Win95. Lie it. - App is using cli, use IgnoreException to ignore it. - Needs ForceSimpleWindow shim to fix flashing to the taskbar and black screen - This app causes application error when we try to exit. It performs innumerable MulDiv operations. There is some problem in the way the application handles heap. It is fixed using EmulateHeap shim. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines when starting app. The app is shipped as part of several programs. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. Other bugs: 103459 - Note: module name has a space after it, this is not a typo. - Disable CUAS in Adobe FrameMaker. - Adobe FrameMake can not handle WM_IME_COMPOSITION message without keyboard event. So the composition string that comes from Speech TIP or HandWriting TIP can not be handled correctly. - make it work under LUA - Disable CUAS in Adobe FrameMaker. - Adobe FrameMake can not handle WM_IME_COMPOSITION message without keyboard event. So the composition string that comes from Speech TIP or HandWriting TIP can not be handled correctly. - make it work under LUA - This app was AV'ing as it was passing a NULL pointer to one of its internal functions. This was fixed with IgnoreException for ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ. - Shortcuts not added for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - Difference in behaviour of GetDeviceCaps(NUMRESERVED) in non-palettized modes causes app to display a messagebox on exit. - Loosened matching info to account for another version. - Throws message box if Wing32.dll does not exist in System directory. Added SyncSystemAndSystem32 as app checks for wing32.dll. - Added all demo versions included with the app. - Improve matching info to match both 1994 and 1995 editions of this app. Both of them has version 1.0 but files are different in size and attributes. - readme file correction - Fails on menu command Save and Go on some systems. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace fixes it. - Can't handle themes - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Added another entry for f32main.exe to handle higher version. - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Add the localized registry files for localized SmartCenter. - Add matching info to match the EXE per language. - Populate reg keys to other users who did not install the app. - This is INTL version app. - Fix denial of service type issue due to Process priority. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - After migrating from Win9x to WinXP the user receives a message stating "The MCI drivers needed for audio playback and recording are not installed properly." Flagging the application as needed to be reinstalled. - App fails to initialize setup.exe. Needs win95VersionLie. - DirectX7 fails to install with unsupported OS. Added dxver to win95versionlie to block old dx install. - EnableRestarts for reboot at end of install. - Shortcuts are not created in Start Menu. Added new CorrectFilePaths switch. - App needs Win95 version credentials to run - Expects the network transports to be enumerated in a specific order from DirectPlay. DirectPlayEnumOrder corrects the problem. - App leaves machine in 640x480 when you switch users with FUS - ALT-TAB in Atari Breakout demo causes black screen. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab.dll - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Application uses the Shift Key as a default control, the sticky key dialogue causes a black box to appear on the game screen - Divide by zero error fixed with IgnoreException - In FrontPage Editor, selecting Go|Mail from the main menu produced "Error loading %ProgramFiles%\INTERN~1\hmmapi.dll". The app retrieves this path from the registry, which on Win9x is type REG_SZ. On NT, the key is REG_EXPAND_SZ. HandleRegExpandSzRegistryKeys.dll fixes the problem. - Fix apps broken by ISAPI lockdown - DBCS User Name cause hang in some operation. FPCUTL.DLL uses UTF8 instead of ANSI MBCS encoding and from msconv97!FnOpen failure causing infinity loop. - Fix apps broken by ISAPI lockdown - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - App needs to be re-installed after migration from 9x - After an upgrade from Win9x to WinXP the application fails to map network drives. Reinstalling the application under WinXP fixes the problem. The application will be flagged in the upgrade report as Reinstall. - Migration and runtime expanded to cover all versions up to 4.x; setup blocked for versions 3.5, 4.01, 4.02, 4.10, and 4.11. Changed Win 9x migration section to INCOMPATIBLE and made the runtime and setup blocks hard blocks because app blue screens system. - Changed hard blocks to soft blocks to conform with ISV. - Modified entries to softblock all versions 4.1x and below as per ISV. This was for runtime and migration only, ISV did not want additional setups. - App setup installs extra shortcut for UninstallShield in FTP Voyager program folder. CorrectFilePaths corrects this. These USB TA devices use different dip switch setting for Windows XP. So we have to tell the user to change the dip swith before upgrade to Windows XP. No version information is available so I use the all of file name to catch all version of drivers. - The application was not listed in Add/Remove Programs, and the uninstall link in the start menu did not function. WinNT4SP5VersionLie puts the entry in Add/Remove Programs and there is no longer a link to unistall in the start menu. - The application detected that the OS wasn't Win9x and aborted installation. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - After getting passed the version check the application was trying to load dsetup and couldn't find dsetup.dll. This error is taken care of with ForceDXSetupSuccess. - After installation the application states that the game may not function correctly without rebooting. If restart computer is selected the application just closes out to the desktop. EnableRestarts gives the application the proper permissions to restart the computer. - App requires IgnoreLoadLibrary for Wing.dll. There is no need to add the commandline in this case as the IgnoreLoadLibrary SHIM handles error message boxes. - The app comes up Messageboxes about not being able to open a file on the CDROM. EmulateCDFS takes care of this problem as it never reproed with it. - Tries to load the wrong dll without hackwinflags set - App would fail to install correctly because of OS version - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll -The app checks for the IE version in the UserAgent before displaying the Wizard related pages. Fixed it with writing to the wizard file, required javascript code so as to make the wizard work with IE 6.x browsers - Removed size and checksum in matching file info as they are too restrictive. - Added VirtualRegistry.dll with a COMMANDLINE="FUTURECOP" that forces the FullScreen registry value to '1' which guarantees that the app works on any machine. - During installation the executable is being truncated when copied from the CD. RecopyExeFromCD.dll copies the executable again after the app closes its handle on the badly copied file. - Video corruption on restore from minimize Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - App will not restore after alt tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Server app that requires Win2000 - Needs LoadLibraryCWD for SQL 2000 install and MDAC install - Added PatchAvailable apphelp message to setup - During installation start menu links are placed in a location available to all profiles. Runnig the setup exectuable under the ProfilesSetup layer takes care of the problem. - Bad parameters passed to CreateWindowEx causing the app not to appear in the taskbar - Fixed by removing the bad style bits - Application will be blacked out after Launching this app. - Toshiba request us to apphelp this application since it will not work correctly on WindowsXP - There is no unique file for MI, so we need to use size and checksum for Data1.cab. - App attempts to open a file on the CD-ROM with ReadWrite access. - App would complain if desktop is not 8 bit colors - The app hacks some functions in ntdll and kernel32 and redirect calls into their own function routines. But Ntdll code has different opcodes in Whistler. The program failed to find the opcode signature and decided to cancel WriteProcessMemory call to write their redirection. Because of this, the necessary decompression of program code and resources were not executed and caused access violation. Shrinker shim fixes this by providing necessary opcode signature so the app could write those redirection into ntdll. - The previous entry was not taking care of version 2.5.2.2. Modifying the UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION to handle up to this version. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - CorrectFilePaths is used to fix the filename ".\ \small.bmp" - the API that's breaking is FindFirstFileA. - ForceCDStop to make sure the CD isn't playing when trying to access the above file - CD has copy protection devices that no longer function in Whistler. Gangsters.dll allows the game to be playable. - Text colors were off, fixed by ForceDefaultSystemPaletteEntries.dll. - Credits wouldn't play, fixed by ForceCDStop.dll. - Platinum version required removal of gangsters shim, a seperate entry was made for the platinum version. - Variant of AOL that needs same treatment - Variant of AOL that needs same treatment - Requires IgnoreCRTExit to prevent av on exit. - App is not supported on XP, adding apphelp - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Need to redo shim - only gwni8.exe fails on multiple instances. - The app is using audio device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, preferred audio device never being used. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - ported from Win2k - first app fixed using kernel apphack flags - GetRight will not catch clicks for non-install users. Fixed with the PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings shim. - App calls GetMenuItemInfo with an invalid address sometimes. - Replaced specific shim with a general fix. - start menu program group not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Fails to launch Fixed with ForceSimpleWindow - Added matching files for BUGBUG application. - When selecting a new user, this app uses an old DC. AliasDXDC fixes that. - The shredder and Vault explorer extension creates windows with bad style values. - Setup.exe needs PropagateProcessHistory in order to include setup directory into search history for matching info. - App setup complains that it needs Windows NT Service Pack 3. WinNT4SP5VersionLie handles this problem. - Write.exe path changed from %windir%\write.exe to %windir%\system32\write.exe - Previous shim was totally bogus - Calls CreateProcess(Start readme.txt), start.exe nolonger exists, redirect CreateProcess to ShellExecuteEx - Crashes with Themes active Fixed with DisableThemes - v1.03 still crashes with Themes active: fixed by changing matching attributes of gnotella.exe - v1.05 also has problem, so setting upto version to 2 - This app does not function properly under Whistler, when migrated from Win9x. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be removed (uninstalled) when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - The application has it's own version checking on install so an appshelp message is not needed. - Added version that has Adaptec as company name - Added version that has Roxio as company name - Added entry for clean install under XP and for NT migration - Converted NT Migration entry from using registry key matching to matching on either GoBack2K.sys or GoBackNT.sys - All messages are GoBack specific - AUTOPLAY AV's trying to work with version information for dsound.dll which cannot be retrieved because \StringFileInfo\lang-codepage\string-name is different for DIRECTX 7. FileVersionInfoLie.dll takes care. Added resource for dsound.dll. - Setup needs Win95. Win95VersionLie fixes this issue. - Golden Nugget for Windows 95 program uses plivileged instruction. IgnoreException.dll fixes this problem. - GNW95 reads display settings from HKCC\Display\Settings, use virtual registry to spoof it. - The app under indexs two arrays by, oh, about 640x480 bytes and checking to see if they have the same value. On Win9x they never do, so the whole check is useless. On Whistler, there is no memory at the location, so the app crashes. What were they thinking? - App makes assumptions about the order of TAPI calls - Fixed with a custom shim - The VerChk library fails to decode the version information in COMCTL32.DLL - None of the version checking is useful, since Win2k and XP have up-to-date versions of everything they need - Installer has a fallback mechanism, so just failing the LoadLibrary works - Desktop shortcut not added for all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Game occasionally crashes on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Use IgnoreAltTabEx on the ICD instead - App crashes to desktop on alt tab Fixed with ignoreAlttab - App crashes to desktop on alt tab Fixed with ignoreAlttab - App AV's when printing if there is no default printer or using a network printer, caused by passing null printer handle and bad printer info to SetPrinter. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - App AV's when using local printer, caused by lack of PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT option in EnumPrinters in w2k and app usage of deleted printer info. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - During gameplay if the StickyKeys accessibility shortcut is active the application dumps out to the desktop when shift, the jump key, is pressed 5 consecutive times. DisableStickyKeys temporarily disables the option at DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH and re-enables the option at DLL_PROCESS_DETACH. - Does not detect correct version of DirectX durring Install ForceDXSetupSuccess fixes this issue. - App needs patch to run on most versions. Patch needs EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace to detect freespace correctly on NTFS partitions. - This app is trying to open 32-bit help with WinHelp. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_USEWINHELP32 wow compat flag. App will now open help with Winhlp32.exe - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. Application service will not start on Windows Server 2003. Patch is available. - No description available for this history entry. - Grim was looking for a specific version of several DDRAW files. Redirected to the current ones. - At install time, the system check was failing because of detecting the "wrong" OS. - App tried to launch Troubleshooting Guide using old wordpad path. Use CorrectFilePaths to fix. - App tried to create desktop shortcut under %windir%\desktop. Use CorrectFilePaths to redirect. - App tried to launch dxdiag.exe from an old DirectX version on the CD. App specific shim redirects to the one in \winnt\system32. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation -> EmulateHeap - Modified to clean up matching info. - Added HeapPadAllocation to fix a buffer overrun - Watson bucket: 2912268 - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Fixed by version lie. Nonclient theming: app-rendered nonclient area incompatible with themes, Revoking on DrawFrameControl/DrawCaption works only temporarily until the app calls SetWindowRgn(NULL) when being minimized, maximized or restored, causing us to jump back on and theme. - Ground Control is using 2 threads and one is set to level 2 (HIGHEST) and the other is set to level 15 (TIME CRITICAL). This shim forces the priorities to 0 (NORMAL). - Modified the matching info to get rid of the SIZE and CHECKSUM entries so that the shim will be applied to all versions of Ground Control. Removed second entry for gc.exe as it is no longer needed. Also changed the replaced on matching file as it is not as part of a minimal install which would cause the shim to not be used. - Does not install IE bookmarks Fixed with Correctfilepaths.dll - Shortcuts aren't installed for all users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - ported from Win2k - Apphelp/migration entry. App is incompatible with Whistler. - This app does not function properly under Whistler, when migrated from Win9x. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be removed (uninstalled) when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - The application has it's own version checking on install so an appshelp message is not needed. - Apphelp/migration entry.

Then when launching the game it would display an error stating that it will not run under WinNT. Both errors are taken care of with Win95VersionLie. - Write.exe path changed from %windir%\write.exe to %windir%\system32\write.exe This fixes the README from the autorun, the Readme shortcut, and launching the readme at the end of the install. - The user is asked if they want to install DX6.1, if the choose yes, the app loads an old version of dsetup32.dll, that expects to find thunking routines in Kernel32.dll. We avoid the whole mess by eating the message box asking about Installing DX6.1 - When launching the application a warning would be displayed stating the app would not run on NT. The original entry includes a config file with a changing file size. Removing the size and checksum solves the problem. - Depending on the user's video mode and hardware the application launches different exe's. Adding an entry for additional exe's. - App attempts to read from CD-ROM at the same time it is playing music from the CD-ROM - Shortcuts not copied to all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - This app is hard coding the path of where to decompress the files. The solution is to hook SetDlgItemText and look for the hard coded path and replace it with the real system folder path. - required Win95VersionLie to install and Force8BitColor to run. - Japanese app that wouldn't save if some directories are marked read-only. - Fixed by RemoveReadOnlyAttribute - Loosened the matching info to work with another version. - Removed PRODUCT_VERSION and FILE_DESCRIPTION attributes from MSHAGAKI.OCX - The very first releases of Half-Life (v1.0.0.8 and earlier) access violate when you launch the game. Sierra has updated the game continuously since release and now supports Windows 2000. - Added AppHelp to catch all versions before 1.0.0.8 - On escape game goes to black screen requiring ctrl-alt-del.

So if a thread switch occur in between the two operations, then the !WaitForSingleObject check goes thru and we rerun code not designed to run twice: generates a C++ error. Fix is to disable autoboost on all threads (9X does not do autoboost) and boost thread 1 to be safe. Also adding single processor, even though for this app having two processors helped. - ported from Win2k - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation(16) -> EmulateHeap - make it work under LUA - App calls ShowCursor(TRUE) more often than it calls ShowCursor(FALSE) - Shortcuts not created for all users, fixed with Correctfilepaths - The app calls GetObjectA() with cbBuffer hard coded to 10 while it suppose to be the sizeof(BITMAP) i.e. 24 - Using EnlargeGetObjectBufferSize shim fixes the problem. - Included the system32 MSVBVM50.DLL which was needed - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Money 98 Japanese version has a homebank software , it checked whether IE4 exists - Fixed with VirtualRegistry shim. - Shortcuts not coped to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Shortcuts not copied to all users.

The following entry will list the app in the migration report as a suggested reinstall. If the application is not reinstalled before upgrading the shortcut to the application will be replaced with a linkstub instructing the user to reinstall the application. - The app had problems when it obtained a NULL HWND from GetDlgItem. The app specific SHIM passes it a non_NULL previous HWND to fix the problem - This problem occurs on Win9x too. Windows 98 crashes too when we go through the repro steps.This is clearly an App bug. - Applying ProfilesSetup layer to install so icons are installed for all users App Fails to launch. VirtualRegistry enables app to succeed on installation check. - Setup Error - This game requires Windows 95 or 98, some performance loss may occur.

WaveOutUsePreferredDevice takes care of the problem. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+). Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - this also corrupts sierra.ini file in %windir%. fixed by forcing the app to ignore video speed test results which also solves the problem of divide by zero. Therefore, only WOWCFEX_SAYITSNOTTHERE is used. (SAYITSNOTTHERE replaced by HACKPROFILECALL) -USB sound is mapped to audio card. Fixed with the WaveOutUsePreferredDevice shim. -USB sound is mapped to audio card. Fixed with the WaveOutUsePreferredDevice shim. -USB sound is mapped to audio card.

They had no effect on the app. The shims applied to _INS0432._MP handle all the issues. - 16 bit executables removed: llnt8_1_3.exe (NT4SP5 layer removed. Unnecessary) - This application needs the Java VM installed to work. Adding Apphelp to notify user on install. - Changed the apphelp to point to http://www.microsoft.com/java - ported from Win2k - OEM software is incompatible with XP, it installs a bad GINA. Block it from installing. - Smart Card system hoses login during upgrade. Hard block and force uninstall before upgrading. - OEM software is incompatible with XP. Added to upgrade report. - All the Hummingbird Version 7.0 applications use the same autorun, Msetup.exe. The install options on the autorun are not present. Win2000VersionLie takes care of the problem. Note: This also takes care of the sample pack. - Multiple Humungous apps have problems with the registration program AVing. - Fixed with EmulateHeap - Jigsaw has a heap problem - When doing WideCharToMultiByte, the app does not pass the ansi string buffer length correctly, while it seems the app allocates enough big buffer, fix this by correcting the ansi string length - paint.exe has random heap corruption, since this app is intended to win9x, applying EmulateHeap fixes the problem - Removed Khunmin2Album shim: request by vendor as a security problem - Title bar is overlapped with XP Themes. - Disable themes Layer solves the issue. - Shim applied for WebEditor, Sheet, Presentation, Word Menus. - Disable CUAS for using OLE Main STA. - With Luna on the Seirra online setup screen is permantly minimized and wont install the game. Fixed by applying WOWCF2_FIXLUNATRAYRECT. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - This application is just for Windows 9x. - OEM requested this migration entry -Shotcuts not created for all users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - After upgrading from Win9x to WinXP with IBM Backup and Restore installed, the user is not able to uninstall the application. The below entry will suggest to the user to uninstall the app before upgrading to WinXP. - Application caused a server hang during the login process due to a loader deadlock. Corrected by preventing install of twgproc.dll as global in the registry. App must be uninstalled at upgrade to remove the global install. - Needed to catch other setup cases. - Added notasexpected apphelp message - This app is unable to launch after migration. The following entry will block the setup of this app and list the app on upgrade report at migration from W9X. - This app is incompatible on Whistler and unable to launch after migration. The following will produce appshelp at install and the upgrade report and linkstubed at migration from W9x. - This app creates one of it's services with a start type of SERVICE_AUTO_START. Since the startup order of certain things has changed in XP for quicker boot up this now creates a circular dependency (which causes boot up to take 15 to 20 minutes). Changing the startup type SERVICE_SYSTEM_START eliminates the circular dependency and XP boots up normally. - Tries to open all files with the write flag, even CD files - Fixed by stripping the write bit off CreateFile if the files on the CD - Freeing invalid blocks fixed by validating the calls - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - DirectX error during install - Application needs EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - The company that created this application is no longer in business. After migration the application tries to connect to the ichoose server which no longer exists. Suggesting to uninstall the app before migrating from Win9x to WinXP. - IConfig.dll, installed with CompactFlash card readers, faults and brings down explorer.exe. - We have vendor's o.k. to remove registry entries, IConfig.exe, and IConfig.dll. Problem solved. - Increased version number to 6 - Watson bucket: 2299270, 2117749 - App does not handle REG_EXPAND_SZ registry keys properly. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Apply this to 2000b only. Haven't tested older versions, and we want to give Mirabilis the chance to fix this. - App would produce incorrect version error - Win 95 version lie takes care of the error - DX error during setup Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - IEAK URD installation attempts to advertise and install a package that does not contain a Component table nor a Directory table. This worked with WI 1.1 but does not any more. The transform adds a Component table (with a placeholder component), a Feature table (with a place holder feature) an empty FeatureComponent table and a minimal Directory table to get the package up and going. - HeapValidateFrees used because RtlSizeHeap is called with invalid heap blocks - Specific shim to handle: 1. Extra paint messages which overwrite modal dialogs 2. Syskey messages caused because no window has focus - IgnoreAltTabs used because app doesn't handle Alt+Tab correctly, even under 9x. - Note: App requires DX8 or SP1 on Win2k. - Messagebox at install states app has not been tested on Windows 2000 - Added IgnoreMessageBox to handle ambiguous error message - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - Win2k version error on setup of iFeel mouse drivers Fixed with Win2000VersionLie - Application av's when memory is above 512 meg. Corrected with GlobalMemoryStatusTrim. - No description available for this history entry. - The application would not put an entry in the add/remove programs. This is fixed with WinNT4SP5VersionLie. - The matching info has been modified. - The existing entry needed to be modified to also handle version 8.0.1 The size and checksum for the matching files has been commented out. - The application would not install the start menu items to all users profile. This is fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - ported from Win2k - Redirect HKLM\Software\Adobe to HKCU\Software\Adobe for non-admins - Matching info catches 8.0 and 8.01. - Shortcuts were not showing up for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - The startIn fields had double quotes which was preventing everybody from going to another tab in the properties. Fixed with ForceWorkingDirectoryToEXEPath. - The shim was also modified to fix a bug in the shim. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - Was not necessary to shim setup with nt4sp5 or profilessetup. The shims applied to _INS0432._MP handle these issues. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (NT4SP5 layer removed, Profilessetup removed) - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - This app tries placing its license dll (LicDLL.DLL) in the %windir%\system32 folder. This was ok on Win2K as there was no other file with this name in sytem32, but on XP, we have the OS license DLL with the same name. So, the app cannot place its dll in the system32 directory as it is protected. During registration, the app loads the system registration DLL and tries to get a proc address that does not obviously exist in the system DLL and the call fails. So, the app displays all greyed out options. - The solution is to redirect the apps DLL to some other folder and pick it up from there. CorrectFilePaths is used to redirect to the windows directory. The app specific Shim picks up the LicDLL.DLL that was redirected to windows folder by hooking the LoadLibrary call. - The applications Control Console and the ClientBuilder also need the ImageCast shim. This changes a hardcoded "WinDir\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs" to its new location "SystemDrive\Documents And Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs". - App calls SetProp on the desktop window, which is now an error. - Improved matching information - This application opens the CDAUDIO device using WINMM prior to starting the intro movie. During the intro movie the app is continually calling mciSendCommand with MCI_STOP on the CDAUDIO device even though they never started it playing. This causes the movie to pause all the time. The shim hooks mciSendCommand and when it receives the open command it opens the device and tells it to stop. After that it kill all stop calls until actually receiving a play command. - Updated the matching info - DirectX error during setup. Fixed with Forcedxsetupsuccess. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - Win9x version lie on autorun Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - AppHelp message to send user to Indeo web site - DO NOT: change the EXE ID Tag: DShow references this directly - Setup claims it can't run on NT. Apply 95version lie. - Setup can only be run in 16-bit color, set it to 16-bit. - Setup launches dxsetup.exe which AVs because it called RegisterClass with a NULL wndproc. We make it the DefWndProc instead. - We ignore the dxsetup but then Setup complains that the DX3 components are not installed. We ignore that worthless messagebox. APP installation breaks the value of HKCR\cplfile\shell\cplopen\command. The application adds %windir% value before runddl32.exe. This registry field's value is changed to the desired one using CorrectFilePaths shim with +RegSetValue as the parameter. App loses focus when starting up. Fixed with ForceApplicationFocus. Unfortunately we now discover that ForceApplicationFocus breaks the app later - when you drag another window on top, Indesign window steals the focus. I can fix this easily by modifying the shim but at this stage I am not allowed to do so. So I am pulling the shim. - make it work under LUA - Added Win95 version lie so system test passes. - Patch required to correct a bad format control string passed to wvsprintf. The program uses the string ".SetRegDWORD - Key [%s] Value [%s] DWORD [%s] " but the 3rd parameter is actually a number not a string so patch it to %d. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added entry for Realmon.exe to apphelp the real time monitor if a known bad version of ino_fltr.sys is installed. - Changed from custom message to generic "Incompatible" because the patch we pointed to on ISV website didn't work - This version is designed for Win9x and not compatible with NT. The app will error upon trying to clean install under WinXP as not compatible with NT. It is impossible to uninstall after migration. - Migration entry. App has specific OS versions. This requires an Uninstall/Reinstall.ഀ - Modified PRODUCT_NAME value in Migration entry to catch multiple install types. - Created apphelp entry for Realmon.exe to apphelp the real time monitor if a known bad version of ino_fltr.sys is installed. - Migration entry. App has specific OS versions. This requires an Uninstall/Reinstall. - Added generic fixes for all older versions of InstallShield, this includes: _INS0432._MP, _INS576._MP, _INS0576._MP, _INS5176._MP, _INS5576._MP - The fixes are for Profiles, Restarts and Diskfreespace problems. - _INS5576._MP calls OemToCharA on a string that is already ANSI. This causes problems when a user name is localized because the TEMP directory may have code-page dependent characters in it. - Only ProfilesGetFolderPath is safe to apply globally. - Added EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - See Description for CorrectFilePathsUninstall - Executing uninstall from Add/Remove Program won't reboot the machine. EnableRestarts corrects this. - Added entry for uninstall for AutoCAD 2000 Japanese edition. This edition installs unin0411.exe instead of uninst.exe into %windir%. - Add an appspecific entry for Canvas 6.0 - UnInstallShield has an insidious bug where it calls WaitForSingleObject on the HINSTANCE returned by ShellExecute. Since an HINSTANCE is not an actual HANDLE, the WaitForSingleObject behaviour was completely random and in some cases caused UnInstallShield to hang. The fix is to change the HINSTANCE returned from ShellExecute to 0x0BADF00D and then look for it being passed in to WaitForSingleObject. If found, WAIT_OBJECT_0 is returned immediately to prevent deadlock. - KA52 Team Alligator runs uninst.exe from the directory in which the app is installed. Added matching info for this instance. - IKernel.exe is launched by svchost and we couldn't shim the target application setup that is using InstallShield 6.0 engine. We intercept first call to CreateFileA that accessing data1.hdr and using this path for reference and pass it to apphelp to find the matching application. When we found a match, it'll invoke shimengine to load additional shim for that specific app. - Multiple versions of IKERNEL.EXE exist with different File Descriptions, changed xml to match all versions. - Fix Cicero crash on FreeLibrary of ISRT - IgnoreFreeLibrary ISRT.DLL caused regressions. Disabling Cicero - Apply an MSI transform to allow the installation of needed components. - Apply an MSI transform for eval version of application - App is unable to move a project to another drive, even though - the drive may have enough free space. - Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - App may AV when moving a project on a multiproc machine. - Fixed with SingleProcAffinity and ChangeAuthenticationLevel - App comes up with an error message after about 15 minutes saying Divide by Zero. - EmulateHeap fixes the issue. - Newer TAPI sends a disconnect message which was not present on previous versions - Fixed by removing that message from the callback queue - Added entry for CS430 - Changed text from "&" to "and" due to a bug with displaying & properly - Added entry for CS630 - Added entry for YC76 - Poor keying (setup and data1.cab), but there aren't any good files with version numbers or Intel text strings - Added entry for CS430 v3.0 - Added entry for CS330 v2.0 - 9xMig blocks for manu Intel Create and Share cds - The GrabMi information was sent by Intel, more info is on the way - Intel requested that the installation/migration be blocked - Changed text back to "&" - Updated 9xMig blocks to change messaging per Intel's request - Using direct application triggers rather than depend on linkstub in 9xMig - Updated 9xMig blocks to not have a linkstub trigger - block 2.x install on XP, disable on win9x upgrade - Revised UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION to catch up to 3.2 - Revised entries to catch additional exes - Revised entries to catch additional exes - Loosened entries with UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION - handle 3.x win9x upgrade scenario. - warn user they need to reinstall on XP if win9x upgrade Block IntelliType Pro 1.x from installing on XP. Disable IntelliType Pro 1.x on Win9x upgrade. Keep run line entry for type32 active User needs to get updated drivers from Intel for this app to work right. Device get's banged out after upgrade. Needs updated drivers but Intel doesn't have any yet. - This application is just for Windows 9x. - FindCapt incorrectly used the VOLATILE key functionality of the registry, which is ignored on Win9x. - Extensive use of the DYN_DATA structure - App specific shim required to hack around their expectation of 16 bit window handles - One version of video phone AVs because they FreeLibrary on the dll containing their WndProc - Fixed by Ignoring that FreeLibrary call GoPadv. 1.50, Hammerhead FX 1_20_920 @ Joysticks\Interact\Win9x\Interact Game Device CD v.1.20, Joysticks\Interact\Win9x\ProPad8 v.1.20.920\Raider Pro - Propad 8 1_20_920.exe, Joysticks\Interact\Win9x\Pro Pad 6 v.2.00.930\p228_2_00_930.exe, sv253_1_20_920.exe, sv253Update1_20_920.exe, Joysticks\Interact\Win9x\V3 Racing Wheel v.2.00.901\V3_2_00_901.exe not compatible with XP. - WinG32.dll installation error on launch. Fixed with WinG32SysToSys32 - APPSHELPCI: AVerMedia InterCam-Elite: Apps will not install in Windows XP. - Intercom Live Express Video Panel doesn't work so well - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - Problem caused by ghosting effect fixed by the ForceSimpleWindow shim. - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Added EmulateHeap, EmulateDirectDrawSync and changed ForceSimpleWindow to NoGhost - Version error during setup of IE4 Fixed with WinNT4SP5VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App only handles 8-bit and 24-bit DIBs. Use the EmulateClipboardDIBFormat shim to convert other high color DIBs to 24-bit ones. - IE4 setup produced Setup Error, "You must have NT SUR 4.0 Gold (version 1381) to install" Win NT 4 version lie takes care of the error - Added another ie4setup entry for a slightly different version for 3D Ultra Minigolf. - Added another ie4setup entry for a slightly different version for Wargames. - Added another ie4setup entry for a slightly different version for Internet Commsuite. - Fixes a problem with Internet Explorer's IE5DOM.EXE package. If the command line contains /n:v, the package will replace the 128-bit encryption modules that shipped with Win2K, which can cause serious harm -- no one can log on to the machine. - The shim simply removes /n:v from the command line so that the package does not replace the encryption DLLs. - Bypass the User32 DispatchMessageWorker() try...catch block to allow Access Violations within the scope of a WM_TIMER message in Internet Explorer to get properly handled - This app is incompatible on this versions of Windows. The following will produce appshelp entries under whistler stating the application is not compatible. - list as incompatible app in the upgrade report and linkstubed at migration from W9x. - This application is just for Windows 9x. - This app is incompatible on this versions of Windows. - Sharp will provide conpatible module from Share Web site. - list as incompatible app in the upgrade report and linkstubed at migration from W9x. - Corrected the hooked files to extracted setup files since existing entry had used the download file. - There is no unique file for MI, so need to use the value of size and checksum. - Reg32a.exe bug - using uninitialized variable on the stack. Needed to clear out stack at key points to avoid bug. - Moved all instances of Interplay EReg problems to this spot - Looks like Reg32a.exe is also called Reg32.exe, so we need two entries - Removed most matching info to ensure we catch all instances. This shim is very safe, so it's not going to screw up apps if it matches incorrectly. - Last shim was bogus. Actually needs StackSwap on DefWindowProcA. - Added additional Register.exe which is found in Villain's Revenge - Needs EmulateSlowCPU in able to run on newer processors. - Priviliged Instructions. - Faults on Processor speed check Fixed with command_line on IgnoreException - Loosened matching criteria to match Gold Edition - Removed Filesize and checksum from matching criteria - Priviliged Instructions. - Faults on Processor speed check Fixed with command_line on IgnoreException - Version detection for DirectX needed win95version lie. - App needed 1GbGetDiskFreeSpace for correct free space calculations. - App was freeing invalid pointers, HeapValidateFrees corrected this. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - Fusion manifests and .Local files don't mix - Fusion manifests and .Local files don't mix - Fusion manifests and .Local files don't mix - Fusion manifests and .Local files don't mix - Fusion manifests and .Local files don't mix - App broken because of user ghosting - Application has a bad version # for msvcp60.dll authored in its Windows installer package. It lists a version # there as 6.0.17793.0, which makes it look newer then what the system has, which is version 6.0.8168.0. It actually includes the correct version, it's just not authored correctly. So now that msvcp60.dll is protected the install fails because it appears it wants to install a newer system file. This file was not protected in win2k but is protected in Whistler. - Window title will be broken on WindowsXP and Contents will not be display correctly. - There is no unique file for MI, so we need to use size and checksum for CHGENV.Z. - Need to block install of EVAL version of application as it is not designed for XP. Also need to warn during setup of RTM version that the user must install the latest Service Pack before the application will function correctly. - Split Evaluation Edition into new dbu entry, to put a different message and apphelp message, at the request of the ISA team. - Modify product versions of eval version at request of ISA team. - ISA Server 2000 needs hklm\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\mspfltex\start changed from 4 to 2. - ISA needs the SharedAccess service to be in a certain state to install and run. this service doesn't exist on whistler ADS anymore. Fixed with the ISA shim. - Need to block install of EVAL version of application as it is not designed for XP. Also need to warn during setup of RTM version that the user must install the latest Service Pack before the application will function correctly. - ACMSETUP.EXE is found in the cache, prevent cache lookup by applying an empty AppHack flag. - When uninstalling ISA enterprise objects, the app calls AccessCheck with an empty DesiredAccess flag. That api has been modified to fail if the flag is 0, since a 0 flag has no meaning. - Split Evaluation Edition into new dbu entry, to put a different message and apphelp message, at the request of the ISA team. Also changed apphelp template for RTM to PatchAvailable instead of NotSupported. - Return WSAEADDRINUSE instead of WSAEACCES for WS2_32.DLL!WSAGetLastError - Loosened matching info on msisaent.exe so non-cd install would work - Modify product versions and product names of shimmed exe's at request of ISA team. - ACMSETUP.EXE gets uninstalled from a separate directory and hence the install matching does not hold good. Creating a new entry with the corresponding matching files - Setup must run on Win95. Lie it. - Include start menu shortcut - App has trouble with paths that have spaces in them. We convert them to the short paths. - ISpeed.exe is the extracting EXE - no other matching info is available - Needs version lie for the main executable. - Needs the shrinker shim to fix the incorrectly patched ntdll calls. - Shortcuts not copied to all users - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - ProfilesSetup removed as by design in DOSWOW. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (ProfilesSetup removed) - Updated matching info to match a different version - The application doesn't detect that there is sufficient disk space on drives larger than 2GB. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - Autorun does not detect app as installed Fixed with VirtualRegistry - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath - Autorun Menu Play link points to invalid location. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths. - The application will hung up when Taskbar and Start Menu Properties pop up on top of App during App is loading. The App uses full screen and hide task bar, then the dialog always pop up on top. TaskbarAndStartMenuProperty shim shows the dialog 1st and then the App comes top and the dialog never comes top during loading and eliminating the problem. - ixla Video Plus App doesn't work properly - Title bar is overlapped with XP Themes. - Disable themes Layer solves the issue. - Start menu shortcuts are only created in the profile from which the app is installed. - The issue was solved after applying ProfilesSetup layer. - Wizard will not run for non-install users. - Java VM installation runs cryptsys.exe which is not needed and which corrupts the registry with bad entries. Corrected with TerminateExe. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables. - ProfilesSetup removed as by design in DOSWOW. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (ProfilesSetup removed) - JamellaD2Editor version 3.0 and below has the same problem as Settlers III. App's copy-protection expects the CPU direction flag to be maintained over calls to certain kernel APIs like WaitForSingleObject, SetEvent and ResetEvent Fixed by storing and restoring this flag before and after each call via Settlers3 shim. - JamellaD2Editor above version 3.0 does not release memory properly and causes an AV in specific scenarios. - Watson bucket: 2330241 - Watson bucket: 2299996 - 2GB disk free space problem. - App gives message, String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - WinNT allows OpenFile with OF_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE to succeed if the file is already opened. - Bad bitmaps fixed by CorrectBitmapHeader - App passes Win9x style path to LoadImage, correct with the ever handy CorrectFilePaths. - Uninstall does not remove startmenu shortcuts - Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx. - Older versions of JavaVM attempts to install several cabs using a method of installation that is not compatible Windows XP. This fix stops the execution of the installs of these cabs. - Newer versions of JavaVM need the nowin2kcheck option added to run on XP. Additional versions of Javatrig needed JavaVM shim. - Loosened matching info for international versions. - DBCS username install problem of MSJavx86.exe. Using RedirectDBCSTempPath. - Needed Additive match mode. - JFW.EXE crashes if there is more than one instance of JFW running. EmulateToolHelp32 fixes this. - Adding apphelp to inform users to turn on hardware acceleration - When try to install the app with a user name more than 3 DBCS, App Install fails with an error message. Existing shim in NT4SP5 layer can fix this problem - Modified to clean up matching info and add syscheck dx lie. - Added EmulateGetCommandLine which fixes a problem with the app being luanched from the ZONE software via DirectPlay. - App doesnt recognize the DX version on system. Gets stuck in a loop when launching the exe, which asks for DX5 to be installed. Fixed with FileVersionInfoLie - troubleshooting guide does not launch from autorun Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - problems launching via the Zone Fixed withEmulateGetCommandLine - Needs a custom patch to prevent continual joytsick acquire/unacquire - App calls CreateProcess and specifies REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS for its child - Fixed with IgnoreScheduler - Potential heap corruption fixed by EmulateFindHandles - App failed to play AVI at beginning of gameplay. Fixed by ForceCoInitialize. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Removed filesize and checksum from matching info - Changed matching criteria for game exe to match on minimum install - During installation a message is displayed stating the application does not work under NT. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - Revised include/exclude section - shortcuts do not appear for all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Removed filesize and checksums - App tries to load a malformed icon file - Shim replaces the bad icon with a known good one - Watson bucket: 2260534 - Fixed problems with the main app with IgnoreScheduler - Fixed task switch failure with IgnoreAltTab - This app has a problem when there is no MAPI client installed. The app handles the exception but the exception handler frees DLL that raised the exception but in the destruction function the memory in the DLL that was freed is referenced. Ignoring the freeing of the DLL JFMAP52 using IgnoreFreeLibrary fixes this issue. - This is not a regression from any OS as mentioned in the bug report. This happens on windows 2000 and windows 98 also without the MAPI client. - App would not install due to OS version - App would also not run because of differences in enumerating modes in NT - Installer calls childs with Win9x way. SearchPathInAppPath shim corrects it. - Problem reading from the CD, fixed with EmulateCDFS. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - During installation a message is displayed stating the application does not work under NT. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - There is a difference in matching information from installation to installation. Removing extra criteria to handle this. - VB Runtime Error 6 caused by app expecting window handles to be only 16 bits - Fixed by ignoring the VB runtime check - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - The app is using wave device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, usb device never being used although it's a default wave device. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - App setup can't handle OS version and created extra uninstall shortcut into Start/Programs/Knowledge Adventure folder. This extra shortcut wasn't registered into deisl1.isu file. That's why it wasn't removed when user executed uninstall. Win95VersionLie takes care of this. - The app is using audio device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, preferred audio device is never being used. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - Program files copied to current user rather than all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths.dll - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Program files copied to current user rather than all users. Previously fixed with CorrectFilePaths but now needs to be fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx. - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Shortcuts do not appear in start menu Fixed with Win98VersionLie and CorrectFilePaths - App does not Alt+Tab well. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab shim. - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Need to redo shim - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App crashes on focus loss - Was installing QTime incorrectly. Had CLI's to mask out - Changed qt32.exe and qtw32Del.exe entrys to reference general QuickTime entry. If wsprintfA receives NULL format string as argment, return immediately without forwarding the string to wvsprintfA which will AV otherwise. - 16 bit application - When starting, the application requests 256 color mode. This is fixed with the dispmode256 compat flag. - App setup complained about "Insufficient disk space" if user try to choose different destination directory/drive during app setup (Full Install) although user have plenty of disk space. Only happen if user have free space larger than 2GB. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace handles this. - The app is writing a string to the registry using a buffer 208 bytes in size. When the app attempts to read the string back into another buffer later that is only 32 bytes in size the call to RegQueryValueEx fails. VirtualRegistry fixes this problem. - Readme looks for write.exe, CorrectFilePaths corrects this problem - Added -b switch to CFP as it was causing the installation of the program files to be redirected, thus the app wouldn't run - Added VRegistry to the install so the Uninstall button on the launcher will work properly - The registration app that is being lauched by setup is loosing focus and is hiding behind the setup window. Fixed it with ForceApplicationFocus shim - This application cannot be launched on WindowsXP. - There is no unique file for MI, so we need to use size and checksum for DATA2.CAB. - Added HeapPadAllocation to fix a buffer overrun - Watson bucket: 2298687 - Company name changed with a new version, so removed it. - The application would produce an error stating that it needed Win95 Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - install needs win3.1 versionlie - ported from Win2k - Tried to put shortcuts in wrong directory - Command line differences apparently confused installer - Needs version lie - Looking for files in the \System32 directory instead of \System. - App requires 256 colors Fixed with ForceDisplayMode. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed XML entries for 16 bit applications. Applying correctfilepaths to _INS0432._MP to redirect a search for quicktime files. - 16 bit executables removed: KidPix.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Picker.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Puppets.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Moopies.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Wackey.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Stmpmatr.exe (ForceDisplayMode replaced with WOW compat bits) Qt16inst.exe (SyncSystemandSystem32 replaced with CFP shim on _INS0432._MP) - Kidpix uses 32-bit InstallShield which, if running under terminal server, causes paths to be mapped to long filename places such as: c:\Documents and Setting\cmjones.ntdev\windows\kpstudio.ini. - Moopies.exe and Stmpmatr.exe use GetPrivateProfileString() to open kpstudio.ini and retrieve paths to various stamp (.stm) files, which are stored in similar long filename type paths. They call OpenFile() using the path extracted from kpstudio.ini. OpenFile() barfs on the non-8.3 nature of the path. - The speech engine of Smart Voice will not function properly because this app using an older version of speech software. The following entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be installed Speech API 4.0a. - The application was actually produced by Broderbund but they are now part of The Learning Company. - This app renders the system completely unusable. - Adding both Apphelp and Win9x migration info. - Kill 2000 is 95/98 version is not compatible with XP ver. - So, added incompatible entry. - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation for Quake - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update Added "TexelAlignment" switch to EmulateOpenGL wrapper. Translate geometry by (-0.5 pixels in x, -0.5 pixels in y) along the screen/viewport plane. This is achieved by fudging the projection matrix that is passed to D3D. The purpose of this hack is to allow D3D rendering to accomodate content that was authored for OpenGL with the dependency that sampled texels end up pixel-aligned when drawn. The root of the problem is that D3D and OpenGL definitions of texel center differ by 0.5. The "ideal" fix would have perturbed texture coordinates rather than geometry, perhaps using texture transform, but this would be more of a perf. issue than just mucking with the projection matrix. The drawback to mucking with the projection matrix is that all geometry gets drawn (very slightly) offset from the intended locations on screen. Hence, we make this hack optional. - No description available for this history entry. - App doesn't handle Alt-tab. Use the IgnoreAltTab shim to disallow it. - App calls FindNextFile on a handle that it already called FindClose on. On 9x this just returns an error but on NT this causes an AV. Added hook to FindNextFile to the RemoveDirectoryInUse shim to fix this. - App calls UnmapViewOfFile on bogus addresses. We validate the address and don't do anything if it's not one of the addresses that were returned from MapViewOfFile. - App refers to addresses in heap that were already freed. Use EmulateHeap to avoid the AVs. - App doesn't launch - King's Quest only expects the environment variable list to be 618 bytes or less. Fixed by applying WOWCF2_USEMINIMALENVIRONMENT. - HACKPROFILECALL forces us to return 0 instead of 1 for GetPrivateProfileInt("sierra.ini","info","movieplayer") call. which causes the app to think it isn't running in full-screen mode and call our buggy multi-media stuff which apparently doesn't support full-screen mode. - Very few display modes available fixed by HideDisplayModes - USER Ghosting caused game to drop to desktop - Game displayed msg on launch that it couldn't find glide2x.dll. Fixed with IgnoreLoadLibrary. - Game would drop to desktop after a match started. Fixed with HeapDelayLocalFree. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added information for DVC325 - Corrected message info for DVC300 and DVC323 this correction is valid for Win2k as well. - PictureWorks does not work on NT platforms - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added setup version 3.00.79 - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Adjusted version to cover a newer version found - Created entry to flag produce a message in the upgrade report if the below registry entries exist for the application. - Changed BLOCK_UPGRADE to YES, added win9x migration message - Added following 2 entries, different cd media - DIBOUT.DLL is a component that does the printer work for this app. It exports a function called MyEnumPrinters, which calls EnumPrintersA using a 'Level' of 5, which is unsupported on NT. The EmulatePrinter.dll shim was expanded to emulate Level 5. - After enumerating each printer via EnumPrintersA, the app then calls GetProfileStringA( "windows", "device", NULL, szDefaultPrinter, 0xFF ) to determine the default printer. The string returned, in the case of network printers, is not consistent with Win9x. EmulatePrinter.dll performs emulation in this regard as well. - App was attempting to call a function inside a DLL that it had already released via FreeLibrary. Use IgnoreFreeLibrary to fix. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Audio mapped to wrong device when USB is present Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice - Filter network providers, app expects only Microsoft Windows Network - Needs forcedxsetupsuccess in order to pass the dx install portion of its setup. - Uses privileged mode instructions. IgnoreExceptions takes care of this. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Causes bluescreen. AppHelped. - Added an entry for the migration scenario from Win9x to XP. - Add an entry for Japanese version. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Tweaked llwsetup matching info to catch 16bit international versions - This application is not compatible with this version of Windows. If the application is not removed before upgrading to XP the system will blue screen causing a fatal system error. The following entry HARDBLOCKs the launch of the application under XP and will not let an upgrade from Win9x to XP continue until the application has been uninstalled. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Added matching info for LapLink 2.0a - Running the game then alt-tabbing out and back causes some performance issues. - The game would not play any audio when it started up because it determined that it was not running on Windows 9x or Windows ME. This problem was fixed by using the Win98VersionLie shim. - The game also repeated audio on samples because the on of the threads starved the other threads in the process. The video was also jerky because of this bug. This problem was fixed by using the IgnoreScheduler shim. - The application states that it will not run on NT OS. Win95VersionLie takes care of the error. - During installation if the user tries to install the application to a drive with more than 2 Gb of free space the application displays an error stating that the drive does not have enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - During installation if the user tries to install the application to a drive with more than 2 Gb of free space the application displays an error stating that the drive does not have enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - Win9x version lying required to install the application - When installing to a drive with more than 2GB free disk space an error is displayed stating there is not enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - During installation if the user tries to install the application to a drive with more than 2 Gb of free space the application displays an error stating that the drive does not have enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - Added additional INS0576 entry to account for another version of the app. - App requires 640x480x256 Fixed with Force640x480x256 - rr1.exe is a 16-bit executable, 640x480 is no longer working Removed Force640x480x8 - During installation if the user tries to install the application to a drive with more than 2 Gb of free space the application displays an error stating that the drive does not have enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - During installation if the user tries to install the application to a drive with more than 2 Gb of free space the application displays an error stating that the drive does not have enough free space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - Application requires 640x480x8 to run. Fixed with Force640x480x8 shim. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - Application requires 256 colors to run. - 16 bit executables removed: 8604_16.exe (Force640x480x8 replaced with WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256) - Redirect to 32-bit version to fix some random display corruption with the 16-bit version - Add Force640x480x8 so app plays nicely - Leave 16-bit compatibility flag in, just in case user runs the setup.exe directly - Launcher for Sesame Street games needs 9x version lie. - App fails to create correct Chinese font to display chinese text, fixed with CorrectFarEastFont shim. - Heap problem fixed with EmulateHeap. - Heap problem fixed with EmulateHeap. - App brings up error messages when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App setup requires NT4SP3.

This is fixed with Win95VersionLie. - Alt-tab causes video corruption. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Version lie to get 3d support. - This application was not designed to run under WinNT. Trying to clean install the application or run the application after upgrading to WinXP results in OS version error. - DX error on launch Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Display mode error on launch Fixed with ForceDisplayMode - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Need to apply CorrectFilePathsUninstall to Lego's uninstaller so it can find the files moved by CFP - WinHlp32.exe needed instead of WinHelp.exe. EmulateMissingExe should have fixed this but WinHlp32 has a wierd way of checking that the executable is indeed winhlp32. It checks the command line passed, for the executable name and if not found, bails out. If WinExec is used, this is not an issue at all but the hook for CreateProcess had to be modified for this. - Troubles returning from sticky key dialog Fixed with DisableStickyKeys - Shortcuts not created for all users. Fixed with profiles shims. - Installation fails at DX Setup. This is fixed with Win95VersionLie. - Alt-tab causes video corruption. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - App requires user to change to 16-bit color to run - Fixed with ForceDisplayMode -The app was AV'ing as the call to CloseProfileUserMapping was returning TRUE. It always returns TRUE on Windows 2000/Whistler. This is by Design on Windows 2000.Please refer bug# 246235 in RAID. On 9x, it returns FALSE and the app was expecting FALSE. - App requires EmulateHeap: found by JohnDoty. - The setup was producing SMAP errors while trying to detect 3d hardware. This only happens if you click OK to install DirectX. It's trying to install DX6, so there's no point: we just ignore the dialog. - IgnoreAltTab to prevent display artifacts on Alt+Tab - IgnoreScheduler so the task can be killed easily if required - IgnoreDebugOutput to speed up the game which dumps out thousands of lines of debug spew on load. - This app uses a USB Camera that does not function on Whistler. - A newer driver will need to be obtain from Pinnacle. - DX error on launch Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Tries to find default printer on launch using a win95 only option to enumprinters. - Added entry - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+). Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - Mis-aligns the stack in multiple places. StackSwap takes care of this for the affected APIs. - Uses privileged mode instructions. IgnoreExceptions takes care of this. - Whoever designed this game was obviously taking a lot of drugs at the time. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App gets the color calculation wrong and puts up a random message box - DirectX 7.0a install. Nonclient theming: app uses EnumPropsA to enumerate window properties. Believing he owns all properties on the window, he dereferences the nonclient theming property as a string. - Driver does not work on W2K / XP. Block setup on XP. - With Luna on the Seirra online setup screen is permantly minimized and wont install the game. Fixed by applying WOWCF2_FIXLUNATRAYRECT. - Divide overflow problem manifested on faster machines (~ Pentium 700+, AMD-K6 400+) during setup. Fixed by applying WOWCFEX_DIVIDEOVERFLOWPATCH. - This application does not function properly when migrated from Win9x to Whistler. The following entries add the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, the shortcut will point to a linkstub and inform the user that the application must be reinstalled before it will launch. - Modified the title of the entry due to later versions also needing to be listed in the upgrade report as well as added additional matching information for the later versions. - The MFC42!CString::~CString destructor is calling kernel32!InterlockedDecrement on a CString object that already freed. - Using IgnoreException shim to ignore the access violation on writing fixes the problem. - Crashing while saving report multiple times - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation -> EmulateHeap - If the app is not reinstalled after migration, the app will not run. After reinstalling, the app works fine. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer. - Application does not appear in Add/Remove Programs Fixed with Win98VersionLie. - Application comes with a message complaining about system not being initialized and AV's when we continue to play. The app calls MidiOutGetDevCapsA and does not know to handle the last two technology flags set in the MIDIOUTCAPS structure. It knows to handle the first five flags but cannot handle MOD_WAVETABLE and MOD_SWSYNTH flags. The app specific shim 'LinksExtreme' fixes the issue. - App does not complete uninstall. Win9x layer fixes - Shortcuts are not created in All Users directory. - App throws up error messages when 2 user sessions play game. - Clean up the launcher so that it launches the installer and app correctly - Make sure that the Process History is there for the installer to match against files on the CD - Ensure that the installer doesn't reject the operating system and that the DX setup works -And, finally, prevent the app itself from blowing up when it hits the registry - 2nd version of app found, does not contain launcher.exe - Win95 version error during install. Win95VersionLie fixes this problem - DX Errors during install. ForceDXSetupSuccess.dll fixes this problem - After installation, causes blue screen. AppHelp. - Changed hardblock to softblock because ainctl2k.sys driver is blocked. No need to hardblock app. - Error on 2gb hard drives Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace. - Random crashes througout application fixed with EmulateHeap. - The application would give a warning message when the free space in the specified path of installation is greater than 2GB. This is because of the GetDiskFreeSpace API which gives incorrect free space when the free space is greater than 2GB. - EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. Since this a 32-bit application PropagateProcessHistory.dll is also needed to search the parent's executable directory for matching files. - Loosened matching criteria, as previous fix did not work at all. - Changed EXE name from Setup32.exe to _Setup.exe - Added additional matching criteria for 2nd sku - Loosened matching criteria for 1st sku - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Version error on start of setup Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Winhelp was called instead of winhlp32, EmulateMissingExe fixes. - App needed EmulatePrinter to set the default printer flag when the app calls EnumPrinters. - Live Express Card Maker App produces AV - The application would try to revert back to the original resolution but would set it to a setting that was out of the scan range of the monitor. HideDisplayModes takes care of the problem. - The app is using audio device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, preferred audio device is never being used. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - Corrected app name. - Removed excess matching info. - Video corruption on task switch Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Removed Filesize and checksum - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App has midi sound device driver failure on load Fixed with CorrectSoundDeviceId - Application requires 640x480x8 to run Fixed with Force8BitColor - App was passing 0x0000FFFF as char count to DrawText.

Fixed with EmulateCreateProcess. - NOTE: there are 2 OEM and 1 standard version of this app, each has different matching info. - uninstall shortcut has missing quotes - This version is not compatible with NT. - The setup had problems setting the CLSID in the registry due to incorrect security access. - VirtualRegistry fixes this issue but since this was a MSI package, we had problems shimming it. Also, to make matters worse, this was self-registration phase of the setup, which could not be shimmed. MSI made changes which made shimming the self-registration possible. We can apply the layer to it. Win2000 layer, which has 'VirtualRegistry' in it fixes this problem - The setup had problems setting the CLSID in the registry due to incorrect security access. - VirtualRegistry fixes this issue but since this was a MSI package, we had problems shimming it. Also, to make matters worse, this was self-registration phase of the setup, which could not be shimmed. MSI made changes which made shimming the self-registration possible.

Removed shims applied to 16 bit executablse - Setup was copying shortcuts to <current user>. This is by design in DOSWOW. - No repro on version lie issue. Setup launches fine with no version problems - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (CorrectFilePaths removed by design, Win98VersionLie removed) - ported from Win2k - Displays a useless message box - Used by Fleet Boston - The application installs an older version of MSGINA which controls the logon screen. As a result, certain new Windows features may be disabled. Specific features affected include: Fast User Switching, Remote Assistance, and Remote Desktop. - Added japanese version - Added version 5.0.3 - EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace needed - Added apphelp entries for EN Notes r5.03, JPN 5.04 and 5.08 - App would not save to user's desktop or my documents folders, indicates folders are read-only. - App passes invalid nCmdShow parameter to ShowWindow - Fixed by removing high-word from this argument - W2K package requires updated audio drivers to function.9X package needs to be upgraded to W2K package - Luxsonor is out of business so listing Dell as vendor because they have the needed drivers on their support site. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Shortcuts not copied to all users Changed fix to ProfilesSetup layer - Application setup tried to use reg2_32.exe which failed to register ctl3d32.dll. Win95VersionLie handles it. - Added EXE_LINK for reg2_32.exe. - App tries to dereference freed heap and in some parts of the game (after intro movie), its exception handler decided to terminate the app without giving any error message. In other parts of the game (scenario loading, switching to desktop, exit from game), it just generates access violation. HeapValidateFrees shim fixes this. - App does not do cooperative level testing. When it lose exclusive access to video device because of ALT+TAB was pressed, it generates AV 'cause it is still accessing video device. IgnoreAltTab is needed to fix this. - When user exits from the game, app is still accessing video device although com already unitialized. IgnoreException forces the app to exit gracefully. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Apphelp entry. App bugchecks when accessing floppy drives. ISV is attempting fix/patch/upgrade.

This is fixed with Win95VersionLie. - The application would get stuck in an install loop because it is checking for the presence of WinG.dll in System when it is located in System32. This is fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32. - During uninstall the application wouldn't remove the folder from the Start Menu. This is taken care of with EmulateFindHandles. - After migration from Win9x the application would tell the user that WinG was located in the wrong directory.

In Whistler, the source resolution point has moved to a later point of the install. If the first bit in SHIMFLAGS is set, it will enable a fix where we automatically resolve the source in the InstallValidation action as long as we are not performing a full uninstall. - Hard block Win2k March WU package - Autorun menu calls installer with Win9x way. EmulateCreateProcess helps it. - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations.

Applied ProfilesSetup Layer. - App expects SendMessage to give time to the window proc on another thread. - Fix calls Sleep(0) after SendMessage. - This fix intentionally catches the patch as well. - App writes past the end of an allocation under some circumstances - Found by bobday - DX Error on install Fixed with ForceDxSetupSuccess - CreateProcessA("command.com", "setup", ...): on 9X, if app is not 32-bit, the app is dropped and only the cmdline is used. Updated EmulateCreateProcessA - The app is using wave device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, usb device never being used although it's a default wave device. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - Allocates pages at same address for successive VirtualAlloc/VirtualFree/VirtualAlloc calls. - Requires version lie to run - Not a complete fix, user required to press a key on initial startup, due to timing problem, but considered good enough - App installs it's own memory routines for Global* if it's on NT. One of the side-effects is that a GlobalAlloc of size 0 will succeed. This causes AVIFil32 to get confused and it divides by zero. - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Fixed by version lie. - App AV's upon launching the program - fixed by version lie. - Apps sound skips on startup. Needs EmulateCDFS since sound is coming off of CD. - The application would not place the shortcut on the desktop. This is taken care of by CorrectFilePaths. - During uninstall the app would say that the target OS is not supported. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - During launch of the demo, an error would occur that mega6dem.bap was an invalid image, but the app would still run. IgnoreLoadLibrary takes care of the error and the app functions normally. - Using the IgnoreLoadLibrary SHIM to ignore speech.dll and msttssyn.dll. A call to CoUninitialize was freeing the msttsyn.dll and speech.dll on one thread while the other thread still needed these DLL's. The app was AV'ing because of this. - This app was linked to SHELL32 and the NT loader could not load it w/o the .DLL extension. After NeillC's NTDLL modification, this part works. - The app was coming with a message box and AV'ing after wards. EmulateCDFS fixed this issue. - Apply the same fix to all other grades in the same package - App fails when trying to open help files with winhelp. THis is fixed with the WOWCFEX_USEWINHELP32 compat flag. - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App requires 256 colors to launch Fixed with ForceDisplayMode - Converted to use WOW flag, since it's a 16-bit app - Redirects statically linked WINSPOOL.dll to WINSPOOL.drv as WINSPOOL.dll doesn't exist. Redirects loader to Winspool.drv instead of Winspool.dll. - DVD has bad sectors causing SXS code to barf on the autorun looking for a manifest. - Found by MGrier - The application setup calls registry.exe that do os version checking. It needs Win95VersionLie. - Registry.exe uses really old stack for lpdwDisposition parameter (9th parameter) to call RegCreateKeyExA. VirtualRegistry fixes this by adding validation to this parameter and set it to NULL. - The app try to access file in cdrom with FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING flag param and can't meet the requirement to deal with file opened with that flag. RemoveNoBufferingFlagFromCreateFile.dll will remove that flag. - AT&T WorldNet setup fix - ported from Win2k - Start Menu Program group not created under "All Users". Fixed with CorrectFilePaths. - Applications Start Menu Folder not removed by Uninstall. Fixed with CorrectFilePathsUninstall. - shortcuts not installed in all users start menu Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Alt-tab causes buttons to disappear. Blocked in Win9x. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Applications Start Menu Folder not removed by Uninstall. Fixed with CorrectFilePathsUninstall. - 16 bit shim purging. Mavis Beacon 10's install is 16-bit. - shortcuts not uninstalled correctly for mavis or address book. - The application does os version checking. It needs Win95VersionLie. - Registry.exe uses really old stack for lpdwDisposition parameter (9th parameter) to call RegCreateKeyExA. VirtualRegistry fixes this by adding validation to this parameter and set it to NULL. - FileVersionInfoLie.DLL to the main executable. It is looking for a version number from DSOUND.VXD and then incorrectly checking the version by not checking to see if the major version number is greater than or equal to first. They just check the minor version number versus what is shipped on the cd. I modified FileVersionInfoLie.DLL to include a check against DSOUND.VXD since it was checking against DSOUND.DLL and not the VXD. - a-vales changed FileVersionInfoLie which caused this app to no longer work. I changed the DLL back to the way it was and then the app worked again. At that point I retreived the app Val had been working on with this particular shim from the library and verified that it still worked with the shim as I changed it and it did. Also got rid of some matching on SIZE and CHECKSUM. - The app doesn't handle long file names right so we don't let it get it from ini file - App uses SM_CYFULLSCREEN instead of SM_CYSCREEN when sizing it's main window, the result is that the taskbar isn't covered and tray icons show through - Fixed by changing the SM_CYFULLSCREEN index to SM_CYSCREEN which returns the actual screen height - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, the actual executable will be replaced with a linkstub telling the user to reinstall the application. - The version information was too tight and wasn't matching 2.13.x.x. Modified the entry accordingly to handle both versions. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive an appshelp message stating there are known problems with the app. - This entry has been created to replace the entry in migdb.inx to ease application lookup. - This application AV's under WinXP. - This application AV's under WinXP. Flagging the MSI package as incompatible. - Appshelp Entry. App fails to install. ISV No longer supports this version, with no possible upgrade to current version 6.0 - Tracy Hulver at NAI says: Windows 95/98/NT4 users must upgrade to UnInstaller v6.0 currently shipping for Windows 2000 and Windows ME support - Changed matching information for setup since it was matching on a VirusScan file, which makes no sense. - Added matching for setup since not all cases were being handled. - This app was calling the DialogProc directly after getting it from GetWindowLongA.This would be a handle and the app would AV as it was calling this handle directly. It should have called CallWindowProcA passing the handle to it. BigGameHunter3 SHIM was modified to handle this and was converted to a General SHIM. - This application AV's under WinXP. - This application AV's under WinXP. Flagging the MSI package as incompatible. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive an appshelp message stating there are known problems with the app. - Added Win9x migration entries - Below 4.5: Incompatible, recommend uninstallation - 4.5 and above: Must uninstall. If user doesn't uninstall, he/she won't be able to after migration because their uninstaller can't handle the NT environment. - Migration entry converted from migdb.inx to ease application lookup. - Vshield Configuration Manager isn’t linkstubed on US v4.0.0a and JPN v4.0.2b. Added the entry. The following programs in JPN v3.1.6c, v3.2.0 and v4.0.2b aren't linkstubed. There is no good way to modify the existing entry, so added the migration entry separately. - SCAN32.exe in JPN v3.X and v4.0.2 has COMPANY_NAME = "Network Associates Inc" - ScrScan.EXE in JPN v3.2.0 has COMPANY_NAME = "McAfee Associates Inc." - Avconsole.exe and vshwin32.exe in JPN v4.0.2 have PRODUCT_VERSION = "4.0.2b". - Added the vshwin32.exe entry for JPN v4.0.3, This program has different PRODUCT_VERSION from exciting entry. - Need to use NOLINKREQUIRED for 4.5, because that version uses MSI shortcuts. Altered the entry for Japanese 4.0 to catch only 4.0x instead of 4.x, so that it won't conflict. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - NT versions below 4.5 are incompatible with Windows 2000. The version number of the package does not indicate the version of VirusScan NT. For example, VirusScan 5.0 (the package) ships VirusScan NT 4.0.3a. - The previous USA entries that shipped with Windows 2000 were removed and replaced with generic entries that should match on all 3.x and 4.x versions of VirusScan NT that are not Win2000 compatible. - The entry of JPN VirusScan NT 3.1.4a doesn't work. Corrected "PKGDESC INI"-> "PKGDESC.INI". This correction also enables the following version apps to be appshelped. JPN VirusScan NT ,JPN VirusScan NT 3.2.0, JPN VirusScan NT3.51 v3.2.0. - Added the entry of JPN VirusScan NT 4.0.2. - Adding matching info for v5.12 - Added runtime soft block - Added apphelp to the 5.21 update package. - Added soft block for the Virus scan 4.5 setup. - Tightened matching for v 5.21 update package. - App would complain of incorrect version when trying to install DX 7.0a. This is corrected by version lying to it and forcing a directX setup success. - After app installed Mind Spring it would notify the user that it was going to reboot, but would then get a priviledge failure. This was corrected with EnableRestarts. - Moved MindSpring fix to MindSpring App entry. - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - Removed engine = veh - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - This app is incompatible on this versions of Windows. - The entry will need size and checksum to identify this application since there is no file which is related app name and product version. - list as incompatible app in the upgrade report and linkstubed at migration from W9x. - This apps actually need special message of SHARP MEBIUS. Change from Incompatible to SHARP MEBIUS. - This app was requested to be blocked by OEM Recon team. App is incompatible with Whistler. Designed for Win98 only. - This entry is using SIZE and CHECKSUM for data1.cab. This app has installshield generic files only. App is contained in the cab. - This app is incompatible on this versions of Windows. Need to download the update module. The following will produce appshelp entries under whistler stating the application is not compatible. - This entry list as incompatible app in the upgrade report at migration from W9x. - Shortcuts not installed to startmenu Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Using Windows key to minimize causes game to quit to desktop, no crash Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Using Windows key to minimize causes game to quit to desktop, no crash Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - During installation the application would display and error stating the version of the OS and then continue with the installation. The requirement is Win95. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - App is looking for a specific return value from BitBlt (1E0) instead of the documented non-zero return. Shimmed to return 1E0 on success. - Main thread tries to suspend itself in the WinMM callback. Wrote shim that ignores requests to suspend current thread. - Program tries to free addresses that aren't in the heap. HeapValidateFrees fixes this. - App refuses to run in other than 8 bit color, so applied Force640x480x8 to stop annoying dialog. - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - PropagateProcessHistory is needed to add the setup directory to the search history for matching info. - Application needed ForceCDStop to stop the CD audio before playing its AVIs. - Application would produce atl.dll error during install due to previous version lie. Replacing Win95VersionLie with WinNT4SP5VersionLie alleviates the problem. - The wrong version lie was applied to the install. Win95VersionLie is the correct shim. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - Mechwarrior 3 drops to desktop after selecting campaign music keeps playing. Fixed with EmulateHeap - This application BSOD's under XP unless a patch is applied. - App crashes if you Alt-Tab, also changes thread priority to LOW_RT - App calls CreateFileMapping with an object name that contains a \ - App uses 0x0000ffff for as the WAVE_MAPPER id, force it to -1 Memory Manager might not function properly on this version of Windows. - This version of MetaFrame will not run correctly on this version of Windows. AppHelped. - DirectX Setup error Fixed with Win95VersionLie - The app hacks some functions in ntdll and kernel32 and redirect calls into their own function routines. But Ntdll code has different opcodes in Whistler. The program failed to find the opcode signature and decided to cancel WriteProcessMemory call to write their redirection. Because of this, the necessary decompression of program code and resources were not executed and caused access violation. Shrinker shim fixes this by providing necessary opcode signature so the app could write those redirection into ntdll. - App looks in registery for default printer under an unsupported key. Also the app uses DivPrint.x32 (called by DIRAPI) which needs a versionlie to work correctly. - App needed winhelp redirected to winhlp32 - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - The app hacks some functions in ntdll and kernel32 and redirect calls into their own function routines.

If the user selected run at this time the main app pops up a dialog to locate the module, which cannot be done as the module is still not installed. Fixed it with ForceApplicationFocus on the Spanish setup module. - The Biology module depends on the registry value "Health" for its path. The app sets a hardcoded path of "Encore\" after a futile search for the executable in question with a hardcoded path of "C:\body5\body5win.exe" in a call to FindFirstFile. - The Virtual registry custom shim corrects the problem by querying the value of HKLM\Software\Classes\Body5\Open\Shell\Command\Default. This string always contains the correct installation path. This app has a problem on Win9x too if the installation path is something other than %current Drive%\Body5\XXXX. - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - Typing Module needed 256 colors to run. - 16 bit executables removed: SDT.exe (Force640x480x8 replaced with WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256) - Force a separate VDM so they can wait for spawned processes to die normally. - During Disc #1 setup, user online registration (executed from destination folder) failed due to Windows version checking. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - App (Health Dimension from Disc#1) won't run because it looked NeWave32.DLL into %windir%\system32 but the app setup installed it into %windir%\system folder.

Heap problems - App tries to reset machine resulting in an "WinAPI Error 1314" error. Fixed by EnableRestarts.dll - The App when launced AVs due to missing entries in the registry. The missing entries are mainly for the setup app fails to register the registration files it creates during setup. Fixed it with shim to register the files during post setup. - The App also AVs due to Heap problems. Fixed it with EmulateHeap. - Under WinXP the application will not connect to the internet. Since one of our goals is not to leave the user without internet access we are HARDBLOCKing the application during the upgrade from Win9x to WinXP. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Removed HARDBLOCK from mid4.exe at runtime. The user will still experience an apphelp but can still continue. - This is for Miva Empresa NT 3.94 - ported from Win2k - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Shortcuts not fixed in start menu Fixed by changing from ProfilesSetup layer to CorrectFilePaths - Not supported on Windows Server 2003 - Changed WINNT_UPGRADE to use registry key instead of "%SystemDrive%\Program Files" file attributes - Not supported on Windows Server 2003 - updated matching information - Adding matching information for install of localized versions of the app - App uses too many high priority threads which makes keyboard input sluggish. - Apps won't install without 5.0 in the registry - No good matching info available - App detects modem by using the registry: keys have moved since NT4. - Fixed by using VirtualRegistry to redirect and a custom shim to insert specific values - App detects the protocol under a key that has moved from NT4. It checks for the adapters key under HKLM\System\CCS\Services\NetBT and also for the subkey which is a GUID value found under HKLM\Software\MS\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards\* keys. - Fixed by using VirtualRegistry to add the above key and its subkey. - This application isn't supported on WindowsXP. - MELCO requested that to list this application into the upgrade report as must uninstaled app. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - change matching information to more generic one to match Japanese version of Money 2000 - change matching info to higher version to match Ger,IT,FR,UK,Canada versions of Money 2000 - Added COMPATIBLERUNKEYMODULES migration entry to preserve Money Express in the Run key in registry. - change matching info to more generic to match Ger,IT,FR,UK,Canada versions of Money 2000 - Added COMPATIBLERUNKEYMODULES migration entry to preserve Money Express in the Run key in registry. - Passwords are lost due to 40-bit to 128-bit conversion - Fixed by a custom shim to retry at 128-bit if 40-bit fails - Passwords are lost due to 40-bit to 128-bit conversion - Fixed by a custom shim to retry at 128-bit if 40-bit fails - The application would look for DirectX files on the system. If those files don't exist the app prompts the user to install DirectX. CorrectFilePaths takes care of this problem. - During gameplay the application was getting a corrupt pallet when launching in 8-bit resolution. WinExecRaceConditionFix eliminates the wait state between the termination of the first process and the start of the second which is causing the corruption. - If the user tried to reinstall DirectX they would receive an error.

Win9x layer takes care of this. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup Layer - Expanded matching info - Bookmarks do not appear in favorites Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App would skip sound during intro video - Thrustmaster Nascar Pro Digital Calibration Property Sheet does not get any data - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - Shortcuts not copied to IE favorites Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - During installation links were not being put into the favorites folder. CorrectFilePaths takes care of the problem. - App crashes after alt tab Fixed with ignoreAlttab - 16 bit application - Both the setup and application were checking an entry in system.ini for quicktime that does not exist on WinXP. As a result setup would think Quicktime was uninstalled and the app wouldn't play video. Fix was added to wow32.dll, activated with the WOWCFEX_SAYITSNOTTHERE compat flag. - list boxes were acting funny without a versionlie - install needed version lie - SoundPatch will only run on win95, fake it. - Needed to add PropogateProcessHistory to setup.exe to allow _ins5576._mp to find its matching files. - Improved matching files for NGMAP.exe, since sound patch replaces the file - National Geographic Street Locator will not autorun. The bug was due to Process32First and Process32Next APIs. The bug is fixed using the shim EmulateToolHelp32. On 9x the cntUsage field of PROCESSENTRY32 is always non-zero while on NT it's always 0. We make it 1. On 9x the szExeFile field in PROCESSENTRY32 is the name of the executable module (which includes the full path and the executable name); on NT this is the image name. Solving these 2 differences fixes the bug. - National Geographic Trip Planner Platinum 2000: Companion app Street Locator will not launch The bug was due to Process32First and Process32Next APIs. This is fixed with the same shim EmulateToolHelp32. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Re-Adjusted matching criteria to catch all versions - No description available - National Geographic Trip Planner Platinum 2000: Companion app Street Locator will not launch The bug was due to Process32First and Process32Next APIs. This is fixed with the same shim EmulateToolHelp32. - Changed the Matching Files for Autorun.exe as both the 2000 and 2001 versions had the same matching files in all respects resulting in multiple matches. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Adjusted matching info to catch all versions - Re-Adjusted matching criteria to catch all versions - National Geographic Street Locator will not autorun. Fixed it with EmulateToolHelp32 - This application will be cause of AV on WindowsXP when launch it. - Sony will provide update patch from their web site. - Sony will provide update patch from their web site, but not on schedule and cannot see when it available according to Sony then they prefer to use Incompatible for their message rather than PatchAvailable. - What Sony wants to do is to notify their URL to get updated info on their web. - Application setup failed due to OS version - Was creating desktop link in %windir%\desktop - Was not handling new registry type REG_EXPAND_SZ when getting associated EXE for a TXT file. - Was not handling new registry type REG_EXPAND_SZ when getting associated EXE for a TXT file. - Changed to use the HandleRegExpandSzRegistryKeys shim instead of VirutalRegistry. - App gives a message saying it needs to run in 256 color mode. - Force8BitColor shim fixes this. - App calls ChangeDisplaySettings explicitly which causes the display uniqueness value to be updated - even if the mode is equivalent to the current mode. This causes ddraw to reset all it's objects, which the app doesn't expect. - Fixed by ignoring mode changes that will have no effect. - Removed VEH dependency - Updated matching info - Shortcuts not appearing in All Users - Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Applicaton does not install. Fixed with the VirtualRegistry.dll - (DYN_DATA) - Applicaton does not launch. Fixed with the IgnoreException.dll. - primary problem was a zero sized move window. - all the usual suspects elsewhere. - Calls SetWindowsHookEx with bad parameters (NULL for modulehandle) - Tries to send a pointer directly to a controls WndProc by using SetWindowText - Requires that Alt+Tab be ignored - Note: the patch is required for game to run properly - IgnoreAltTab changed to newer IgnoreAltTabEx - DisableStickyKeys added. - Duplicate nbawin.exe entry removed. - New IgnoreAltTab shim now automatically applies DisableStickyKeys and DisableFilterKeys. - Removed DisableStickyKeys shim. - Calls SetWindowsHookEx with bad parameters (NULL for modulehandle) - Tries to send a pointer directly to a controls WndProc by using SetWindowText - Requires that Alt+Tab be ignored - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - App will not run on multiple sessions. - Crashes on launch after safedisk check Fixed with EmulateFindHandles - Disk space error on save game Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - Failed call to SetWindowsHookEx causing problems in controller config Fixed with EmulateUSER -We need to warn user that the usb driver for NTT TA will not work after upgrade. -All version of drivers are the target of this message. -it65sv2.sys is for AtermIT65 series and itusb98.sys is for other Aterm IT seriese. - NEC Preinstalled Machine needs Setup Instrucition Guide before Upgrade. - NEC request us to pop up a message to notify to use this guide before upgrade. - Need to add it to "SHOWINSIMPLIFIEDVIEW" section to show this entry on upgrade report by default. - needed the usual layers for installshield issues. -This application isn't supported on WindowsXP. Update module will be released. -NEC requested that to list this application into the update report as incompatible app. - No description available for this history entry. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - Changed autorun to setup so both cases are matched - Added profilessetup layer to fix shortcuts not copied to all users - Requires SingleProcAffinity shim. - App faults with Alt+Tab. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab shim. -- Needed IgnoreAltTab to ignore alt-tabs, ctrl-esc, etc... -- Needed EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace for drives over 2 Gb. - Shortcuts not getting created for all users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - Autorun menu does not recognize game is installed Fixed with VirtualRegistry - Autorun menu does not launch game from correct location. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - App used privileged instructions (out/in) that caused AV. IgnoreException.dll will filter them. - The application was incorrectly determining free disk space on drives containing more than 2GB of free disk space. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace corrects the issue. - Heap problems fixed with EmulateHeap - nfs5.ico does not exist for all installations The only files that are common to all 40+ versions of this app are dx7z.dll and voodoo2z.dll - added porsche.exe fix as many versions of this app do not use porsche.icd. Used LOGIC=NOT per Linstev's recommendation - App has problems when it access to CD-ROM. EmulateCDFS and RemoveReadOnlyAttribute help. - App throws Exception P. Ignore it. - App has scheduling issue. IgnoreScheduler helps it. - Buffer for joysticks is too small. Emulate it. - Start menu shortcuts are only created in the profile from which the app is installed. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Needs reinstallation after upgrade due to mismatched WINASPI.DLL - Adding entry for nero 4.0.x.x aka nero99mp3 - Adjusted matching info to catch all version 5, including 5.5 - The driver installed by this software, bsudfrdr.sys, causes bluescreens. - This is a heavy OCA hit. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Win9x migration: After uninstallation, program shortcuts are left behind. This was caused by in Win9x, Net Attache setup installs program shortcuts in %windir%\Start Menu\Programs. Migration to Windows 2000 (or higher) will move these program shortcuts to All users profile folder without modifying INSTALL.LOG. Uninst.exe depends on what it originally logged into INSTALL.LOG. Because it couldn't find those shortcuts, they will not be deleted by uninstall program. CorrectFilePathsUninstall helps to fix this. - This app uses a driver (otman5.sys) that has been hard blocked. As a result Netbackup is not able to backup open files. - Ignore invalid calls to CString::SetAt - Adding Incompatible apphelp. - This InstallShield app does not handle Windows 2000 version credentials correctly, and generates error messages and a bad uninstall Start Menu shortcut. NT 4.0 version lying fixes the problem. - Appshelp to inform user they will need to add a site to their local intranet. - Appshelp to inform user they will need to add a site to their local intranet. - Added matching file to avoid matching on NetIQ Security Manager. - Appshelp to inform user they will need to add a site to their local intranet. - Added appshelp for setup.exe from the Intel folder. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Fixed using FUSBadApplicationType4 shim. - Changed the product name matching file information such that it works even in KOR XP builds. - After an upgrade NetNanny v4 will not launch at startup or manually. Reinstalling the application under WinXP takes care of the problem. - Netscape sometimes expects the application data directory to be in %windir% using GetWindowsDirectory API. - The +Win9xPath argument in the CorrectFilePaths Shim is to convert from forward slash to back slash before the string compare. - Fix it by enabling the NTUSER flag NoDdeAsyncReg. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Apphelp entry on Win2k Gold - Add NetShield v3.1.4, v3.2.0 JPN edition entry. - We could not find any unique Matching Info, so we put checksum and size for WHATSNEW.txt Like other entries.are using size and checksum. - Netsonic does not preload web links after upgrade from WinMe. The app needs to be reinstalled after migration. - App had bad code that didn't use to be called on exit - The shim prevents registration of atexit() routines - Added extra dsm.exe which has the same problem - App would not connect to online service. Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Changed matching info to reflect NetZero Z3 and Z4. - The App. had problem during setup handling the return value of EnumProcessModules.On Whistler and Win2K, the return value was ERROR_PARTIAL_COPY, which is acceptable but the App. thought otherwise and was expecting ERROR_NOACCESS. This SHIM changes the return value accordingly. - Added new matching info. - Netzip folders option won't be available on Win2k/Whistler. Message for this will be displayed on upgrade report. If the app is not removed after migration, the shortcut will point to a linkstub and inform the user that the application must be reinstalled before it will launch. - Replaced patch to remove privileged instructions with IgnoreException.dll - App was not handling palette restoration during mode changes - Fixed matching info for japanese version of this app. - Fixed matching info for japanese version of nhc.exe. - Previous fix is not enough for JPN to work correctly. - Removed STORY.WRI from matching info since it doesn't exist on US version of this app. - Added NHOOD.ICO (hidden file) as matching info. - Alt-Tab error fixed with IgnoreAltTab App has 2 problems: 1. It keeps linked lists on it's stack and the stack pointer is changed to allow FindFirstFile to corrupt it. We don't hit this on win9x because FindFirstFile doesn't use any app stack space. We fix this by preventing FindFirstFile from using any stack at all. 2. Autorun and the main executable are synchronized using a mutex that is freed only on process termination. Termination of course needn't happen as soon as it's launched a subprocess. We fix this by keeping track of the apps mutexes and doing their synchronization correctly. - No description available for this history entry. - App has several problems: - 1. Version lies to installers - 2. Reallocate and Free bad memory blocks - 3. Pad allocations by 8 bytes and force all heaps to be growable - 4. Runs out of stack calling CreateFileA - 5. It doesn't run in all display modes, so filter to win9x list - Revised matching info - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - HEAPCHANGE: HeapForceGrowable -> EmulateHeap - HEAPCHANGE: HeapPadAllocation(8) -> EmulateHeap - App bug, allocates insufficent memory for files it brings into memory. - Passes invalid buffer to sound apis - The fix for the acmStreamPrepareHeader function is now in a general purpose shim CorrectACMArgs. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths - Application does not create uninstall shortcuts for all users. - Added matching info for Gateway's OEM copy of NFL Fever - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Added entry for version 6.2 Due to different layout two entries are needed. - Modified the existing entry because it was catching Exceed v6 installations. Changed matching files to reflect files only found with NFS Maestro and its respective versions. - This application does not function properly if installed before upgrading to Whistler. The following entry adds the app to the list of apps suggested to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed, upon launching the app the user will receive a message stating the app will not launch until it is reinstalled. - Adding a message to the entry to tell the user to uninstall before upgrading and then to reinstall after the upgrade completes. - App produced insufficient disk space error when installing to drive with more than 2GB of free space. If drive contains more than 2GB return 2GB of available space when GetDiskFreeSpace() is called - Shortcut to Desktop was trying to be placed in %windir%\desktop and \documents and settings\%user%\desktop which is now redirected to documents and settings\all users\desktop - Added entry for gameplay. - The application would not restore graphics after alt+tab and other shortcuts. This feature is disabled under Win98 so IgnoreAltTab was applied - The application would switch to an unsupported resolution when quitting a game and returning to the main menu. HideDisplayModes takes care of this problem. - The vendor does not wish for us to fix this application. - Vendor changed their mind - App setup is using privileged instructions (in/out). IgnoreException will filter them. - App also need Win95VersionLie to pass os version check. - App used its own 3d math to find index into stencil bitmap. The index calculated would be too large and AV. No visual artifacts result. Fixed with IgnoreException. - Game stops responding on alt-tab. This is blocked in Win9x. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Updated matching info - Game controller setup crashes game because they pass a too small buffer to RegQueryValue.

We have gotten the ok to simulate the behavior of 9x. - matching criteria based on current released versions and available patch. Checksum values changed with patch for icd. NHL 2001 release is not affected. - Playoff, Season and tournament not working because of GetDiskFreeSpace not being called on non WIN32 platform. - Update utility allocates space off the stack below the stack pointer and assumes that it will be valid later. It is, except when LoadLibrary is called, which now uses a bunch more stack space, thereby overwriting their allocation. - They use a keyboard hook which injects nhl2002 into all processes. Unfortunately, they crash sometimes and take down explorer.exe or iexplore.exe. - Potentially responsible for many more buckets. - Watson bucket: 4853323, 4852776 - Application has its own riched32.dll in app directory which does not work for whistler Redirects loader to RichEd32.DLL from System32. - Application's system test detected that the OS was not Win95 and displayed an error. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - The application also wouldn't restart the computer after installation. EnableRestarts takes care of the problem. - The application would state that the application was designed to run under Win95 but would let the user continue with installation. Win95VersionLie takes care of the message. - The would not restart the computer after installation. EnableRestarts takes care of this problem. - When launching the application a message would appear stating that Dino2d.dll could not be found. Win95VersionLie takes care of this error because the suspect dll is not loaded under Win9x. - Check.exe required the use and update of FileVersionInfoLie to inlucde DPlay.dll, and the use of VirtualRegistry with the addition of a NightmareNed command_line entry, because it was not finding the display information in the new path. - The application required the use of IgnoreException because of an access violation error that occured on exit. - Launcher needs Win98Layer to run - Main EXE on CD also needs shims in Win98Layer - App AVs on exit by dereferencing a NULL pointer - Fixed by recognizing the termination sequence and terminating cleanly - Set TokenOwner to administrators group SID. - App broken because of user ghosting - This network driver causes Whistler to Blue Screen.

This location changed between v1.0 and v1.5 of MSI, hence the break. - Redirect MSI keys for new version of MSI: the office installer didn't use the MSI APIs to determine the correct registry location. This location changed between v1.0 and v1.5 of MSI, hence the break. - This was needed for the setup in the case of a mapped drive or a fixed drive. - Made to match both v1.0 and 1.5 - Autorun was not starting up as it was checking the version and returning. Applying WinNT4SP5VersionLie.dll will solve the problem. Occurs on both Whistler and Win2K. - This app does not function properly under Whistler. - TrendMicro requested to block this app by appshelp. - Entry does not work on the build. So I changed Matching Info which will work on current build. - App won't launch without ignore exception shim - Applied same shim to OF1R_HW3D.exe and OF1R_SW3D.exe. - Updated the matching files - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Apphelp entries added for Oil Change 1.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.5. - Fixed matching info. - App was getting the shell command to launch WORDPAD.EXE, and then trying to trim off the "%1" by trimming at the first space.

Instead returned "C:\windows\wordpad.exe" and applied CorrectFilePaths to reset to the real path. - Removed TIME from matching info, for Win2K compatibility, and fixed small bug in omikron.dll - After migration the OmniForm does not work with scanner. - This application does not function properly after upgrading to Whistler. The application functions fine on a clean install. The following entry adds the application to the list of applications that should be uninstalled before upgrading and reinstalled when the upgrade has completed. If the application is not uninstalled the shortcut will point to a linkstub telling the user to reinstall for the application to function properly. - Modified the migration message to MustUninstall and Reinstall. Reinstall by itself does not correct some problems. - Custom action in the uninstaller returns an invalid code, uninstall fails. Shim it to change the invalid code to a valid one. - Filter network providers, app expects only Microsoft Windows Network - Another version needing the same fix. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup - Bogus handles passed to RtlFreeHeap - Fixed by HeapValidateFrees - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - After Migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - This app is incompatible with XP. Flag it in the upgrade report as incompatible rather than "reinstall". - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - ported from Win2k - Operation cannot regain focus once Alt-Tab is hit, IgnoreAltTab takes care of the error. Only 4 files are in directory at runtime and one of these changes size. - LoadLibraryCWD fixes a dll name search path conflict. When installed from a network share, the app launches 23 executables, giving that many pop-ups due to IEHardening. This entry will apphelp setup.exe inorder to inform user to add app install point to IntranetZone. - App overruns allocated memory, corrupting the Heap. - App overruns allocated memory, corrupting the Heap - Attempts to free invalid memory - Checks for free disk space during install - Used by Cox Communications - Atlanta - App failed to prompt for Quicktime/DirectX installation. Fixed with Win95VersionLie. - App's setup used WinExec to spawn Quicktime's setup, which waited for a timeout before returning. App did not close its handle to _WUTL95.DLL until after WinExec returned. This caused Quicktime's setup to fail to create its own (earlier) version of _WUTL95.DLL. WinExecRaceConditionFix does not wait for the timeout, so the App is able to close its handle to _WUTL95.DLL before Quicktime's setup tries to write its own _WUTL95.DLL.ഀ - App used FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFER in CreateFile, but didn't make sure its buffers were "sector-aligned". - Fixes matching info. The older machine info referred to too generic temp files. - Setup was not installing QuickTime which is needed for the app to work. Win95VersionLie takes care of this issue. The matching info has been changed to get all the versions. - Calls from QuickTime were not getting Shimmed due to the exclusion of System32 DLL's.This should get FIXED when only SFP enabled system DLL's are excluded. - The app is using audio device 0 rather than WAVE_MAPPER. As the result, preferred device never being used. WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll corrects this. - The app setup installs program icons/group into current user profile instead of all users profile.

App installs incompatible video driver sys and fails to launch. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - App looks needs version number to be 5.0 in the registry. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Previous fix regressed due to registry changes, now needs VirtualRegistry. - Corrected bad matching information - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 Modified the apphelp message for setup so that it will catch multiple languages. This remidies a stack corruption during install by increasing the size of local buffers in LATUI.DLL, and stpsrvex.dll from 0x34 to 0x38 bytes. Added an apphelp message for setup. Modified the apphelp message for setup. Added Japanese version with seperate patch. Modified the apphelp message for setup so that it will catch multiple languages. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Palette error on exit from game Fixed with EmulateGetDeviceCaps - Difference in behaviour of GetDeviceCaps(NUMRESERVED) in non-palettized modes causes app to display a messagebox on exit. - App Exits with ERROR [PM_Free():Allocation Failed integrity check (InitPalette)] when whistler is in 16-bit color mode. - EmulateGetDeviceCaps fixes the problem. - Applicaton has problems when you ALT-TAB.

Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab shim. - Added IgnoreAltTab to the exe as well as the PRG - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation for Quake - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - Use Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation for Quake - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - Removed SIZE and CHECKSUM from QUAKE3.EXE to catch all versions including patches and updates. Should also catch the demo version. - ver lie to handle shell problems - 16 bit app - Application was failing to load help files with winhelp. This is fixed by forcing the app to use Winhlp32. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - It's sending a TB_ADDSTRING message to the toolbar control, but the lParam of the message is malformed. The lParam is documented to be an array of null-termnated string with the last string in the array being double nulled. In the case of this program, the last string is not double nulled, causing comctl32 to read of the end of the buffer while processing the message. - Need Microsoft Java Virtual Machine installed before app will run properly. - Removed superfluous entry, so that apphelp will not launch twice. - Added a separated entry for IA64. - Merged the X86 and the IA64 entries using the newly added %system32% variable. - Change apphelp from MSJAVA to NotAsExpectedSeeXMLKB - Changed the apphelp to point to http://www.microsoft.com/java - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - NT 4 SP 5 version lie and enable restarts, better matching info added. - Modified the matching info so that this entry takes care of Quicken Deluxe 99 and Quicken Suite 99 since both need WinNT4SP5VersionLie as well as EnableRestarts and they both contain the same files. - ported from Win2k - Adding the SHIM EmulatePrinter(modified to add StartPage) to fix the printing problem in Quicken 2000. The left side of the page used to get clipped when printed becuase of the difference in behaviour of the StartPage API on NT and Win9x. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Adding the SHIM EmulatePrinter(modified to add StartPage) to fix the printing problem in Quicken 2000. The left side of the page used to get clipped when printed becuase of the difference in behaviour of the StartPage API on NT and Win9x. - Adding the SHIM EmulateHeap to fix the AV during 'One Step Update'. An already released heap address was being accessed. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Added appspecific shim to fix an app bug. - Modified the exclusion list for EmulateHeap to include MSXML* Dlls. - App needed to include OLE32 for EmulateHeap as the Istream methods were getting junk data when the heap calls went thru Kernel32.dll and were not allocated from the emulated Win9x heap manager. - The application would not put the shortcut on the desktop. Both Win95VersionLie and CorrectFilePaths were needed due to different code paths under NT and Win9x. - The application would not reboot after installation due to the version lie. This is taken care of with EnableRestarts. - 2gb error in Quicken Home Inventory Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - App populates CURRENT_USER reg keys at install time, but not each time a new user runs the app. PopulateDefaultHKCUSettings does this on the app's behalf. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Shortcuts not copied to all users for additional programs included on CD Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Tightened matching criteria - ported from Win2k - Added _INS0342 entry to account for another version - Needs NT4 layer. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - App is trying to delete an invalid pointer.

Flagging the application as incompatible in the upgrade report when migrating from Win9x to WinXP. - Was supposed to be REINSTALL, not INCOMPATIBLE - This APP section is the result of multitudinous installs of apps that need some flavor of Quicktime to operate. App gives message, String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Added Adobe Premier 5.0 QuickTime installation - Added Dr. Seuss Kindergarten and Dr. Seuss Preschool - Merged two Dr. Seuss entries. - Added qt32inst.exe entry for Dr. Seuss. - Removed data.z from qt32inst.exe matching to pick-up "Carmen Sandiego Word Detective"'s version. - Added qt32inst.exe entry for Myst. - Added qt32.exe from Cosmopolitan Virtual Makeover Same problem as qt32inst.exe. - Added QTW32Del.exe from JumpStart Typing - Another LimitFindFile, this time on qtinst32.exe (Note that all fields match a previous entry except for the filename.) - Added qt32inst.exe entry for Where in the World is Carmen Sangiego v3.53. - Another LimitFindFile on qt32inst.exe - SyncSystemAndSystem32 applied to qt32ins.exe, as per a-vales and andyseti fixes - Added QT32INS.exe entry for Bodyworks. - Moved entries that applied to Quicktime installation wrapper for Dr. Seuss Kindergarten and Rugrats to the appropriate app entries. - Added another entry for 3D Studio Max - App calls CreateFile specifying FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING then uses unaligned buffer when calling ReadFile. Fixed with EmulateCDFS (we simply remove the NO_BUFFERING flag). - Added generic entry using setup.ini. Should catch majority of QuickTime installs out there. - Added another entry for the installer - replace the '?' in .lnk file name to create lnk files correctly. - Added entry for "Rugrat's Adventure" and "Riven" DVD's QT - Fix it by enabling the NTUSER flag NoShadow. - QuickTimePlayer.exe attemps to subclass windows that are out-of-proc and passes a hardcoded address that is valid in its process space only. We block this behavior by only letting it subclass windows in its own process. - Make NoShadow apply to all versions - Use separate entries so the QuickTime5 shim only applies to version 5. - Updated matching info to cover QT6 which has the same problem as 5. - Needs new drivers to function on Windows Server 2003. App uses invalid detection method to detect clustering. - App would fail to install correctly because of OS version - App would fail to run Al Unser racing because desktop needs to be 8 bit WOWCFEX_PLATFORMVERSIONLIE was modified to take a command line - Required ForceCoInitialize to run. - App would crash if more than 2GB of disk space. - Setup.exe was trying to create link in %windir%\Documents and Settings\username\Start Menu, corrected to Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu - Make sure uninstall can find files moved by CorrectFilePaths. - Added quotes to COMMAND_LINE for CFP - Need to redirect the movies to the new windows media player - And, the application itself needs to be forced to use the correct palette - There are actually two versions of the same app with slightly different matching info - There are actually at least 3 versions of the same app with different matching info, unfortunately the files are different enough that we need separate entries - Revised matching info to cover three known versions of the autorun. - You need the copy with this SKU (10008307) to repro this bug. The other copy with the same title isn't actually the same app. - App tries to call IShellLink::SetPath with start.exe. Fixed with EmulateMissingEXE. - Autorun requires version lie. - App tries to write to the memory at b0000 - Fixed by mapping some memory there - App setup installs H5*.dll (32-bit) into %windir%\system instead of %windir%\system32. Whistler migration setup moved those files into %windir%\system32 and as well as the registry entries in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls. Unfortunately, the app is still looking those files into %windir%\system (hardcoded). Reinstallation fixes this issue. - Application AVs during installation. - After migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - Fix DirectDraw synchronization issue with EmulateDirectDrawSync - Prevent hung app repainting - Prevent ghosting on Whistler - Add HideDisplayModes so that all resolutions are detected properly - Add fix for setup which tried to load glide - Reduced matching info slightly - Add IgnoreException to fix HyperThreading issue - Added EmulateSlowCPU to correct performance counter problems on newer PCs - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - App install would kill the install of Acrobat Reader. Win95VersionLie fixes this problem. - Win95VersionLie fixed the above problem exposing the next problem. Acroins.exe would not exit completely, stalling the original setup process. CorrectFilePaths.dll fixed this problem. - disk space error on launch Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - The app needs 640x480 resolution and 256 colors. It comes up with a message for this. This is overcome with Force640x480x8 SHIM - On some systems the app incorrectly reports the number of display modes. - During play, the app searches for midimdl.cfg in the 'SYSTEM' directory When it is actually present in 'SYSTEM32' directory or is not present at all. Added an app specific SHIM (TreasureCove) which hooks _lopen and fakes the return value when the file is "midimap.cfg" - Disk space error during install Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - Game hangs on launch - Setup will not install Start Menu or Desktop items on NT, so we lie - Installation must run Windows95, lie to it. - Tries to launch %windir%\write.exe, corrected to %windir%\system32\write.exe - On win9x it uses MSS16, but on NT it uses MSS32 which AVs - Fixed by failing to load MSS32 - Force to 640x480x8 to prevent the "must be in 256 color mode to play" - ForceApplicationFocus is needed because occasionally focus is lost causing palette problems - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - Apps needed 256 colors, AV'd in MSS32.dll - 16 bit executables removed: ypooh.exe (Force640x480x8 replaced with WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256, IgnoreLoadLibrary handled in ntvdm, ForceApplicationFocus removed) zpooh.exe (Force640x480x8 replaced with WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256, IgnoreLoadLibrary handled in ntvdm, ForceApplicationFocus removed) - Module_Name ZPOOH catches both ypooh and zpooh executables Reaktor Realtime Instrument: pressing the close button while themed causes this app to spin in a tight loop running at realtime priority, effectively hanging the machine. The message loop for this app is extremely timing sensitive, the additional overhead introduced by theming alters the timing enough to break this app. Shim note: no version resources on executables. - Updated matching info. I added support for 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 3.0.0, and 3.0.2 Also removed SIZE="5857280" CHECKSUM="0x932433FD" from the original 2.0.0 entry to trap v2.0.4. - The .msi package doesn't recognize NT version higher than 5. We change it to match all NT versions. - App will not copy media files to folder marked with read-only bit, like My Music Nonclient theming: The operating system detects Real Jukebox (plus + basic) rendering various aspects of his caption area and revokes themes on the main window. Without the DisableThemes shim, the process would remained themed in all other respects, including themed global nonclient button metrics (GetSystemMetrics(SM_CX/YSIZE), which is not associated with any particular window). This causes Real Player to render improperly sized nonclient buttons. The solution for Real depends on whether they wish to continue custom-rendering their caption area; if so, they should either use one GetSystemMetrics call to retrieve (and subseqent calls only to refresh on WM_SETTINGCHANGE messages) nonclient button dimensions, or, they could render their entire custom nonclient area, including the buttons, etc, without depending on system metrics or rendering. In many ways the latter provides more flexiblity, albeit it's more work. - Drivers will not migrate from 9X so we will tell the user where to get updated drivers to make this app work again. - On WinXP SP1 Beta, the RealMYST game starts, blanks the screen and then returns to the desktop. - This is fixed by applying Win2000VersionLie shim. Nonclient theming: The operating system detects Real Player (plus + basic) rendering various aspects of his caption area and revokes themes on the main window. Without the DisableThemes shim, the process would remained themed in all other respects, including themed global nonclient button metrics (GetSystemMetrics(SM_CX/YSIZE), which is not associated with any particular window). This causes Real Player to render improperly sized nonclient buttons. The solution for Real depends on whether they wish to continue custom-rendering their caption area; if so, they should either use one GetSystemMetrics call to retrieve (and subseqent calls only to refresh on WM_SETTINGCHANGE messages) nonclient button dimensions, or, they could render their entire custom nonclient area, including the buttons, etc, without depending on system metrics or rendering. In many ways the latter provides more flexiblity, albeit it's more work. - Removed the matching files pnmi3260.dll and rpshellsearch.dll to match even the CHT version of this application. - Display corruption when Windows key is used. Fixed with ignorealttab - Setup doesn't launch Quicktime Fixed with win95versionlie - 32-bit setup is attempting to launch a 16-bit Quicktime which looks in the %windir%\system32 directory instead of %windir%\system causing MESSAGE_ERROR_LAUNCHING_QT_ error dialog Fixed with CorrectFilePaths for the 16-bit QuickTime DLLs - Setup32.exe needed Win95versionlie and the randomexe generated needed the Win95versionlie too. - App does not reboot at end of install if option is selected Fixed with EnableRestarts - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath - Added include/exclude to Win95versionlie - Apphelp to notify users of a new patch to fix an install problem. - Installation must run in Windows95. Win95VersionLie takes care of it. -Display corruption after ALT-TAB. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab. - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - In game menus were shown as black boxes - Fixed with ForceDefaultSystemPaletteEntries - App displays intro movie, then immediately exits to the desktop. - This is fixed by ForceDefaultSystemPaletteEntries - Dongle cannot be found after upgrade from Win9x to WinXP. Reinstalling the driver after migration fixes the problem. The application will be flagged as reinstall in the upgrade report. - Cloned fix from the Sysinternals version of Regmon - The application bug checks when trying to write to system protected memory. - The application bug checks when trying to write to system protected memory. There is a version available from the vendor for download from the vendor site. - Some apps ship with Old versions of regsvr32 that are broken - Fixed by redirecting them to the latest version - Note that the shim expands environment variables and appends the original command line - LanguageNow called {InstalledDir}\RegSvr32 /s keyboard.ocx (and others). By redirecting, we lost the InstalledDir, so the LoadLibrary fails. Change RedirectEXE to taske a + at the start to mean that the app directory needs to be added to the path. - The application requires an appshelp message to warn user they need to download a patch to log into the online service. - This app does not function properly under Whistler, when clean installed or when migrated from Win9x. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be removed (uninstalled) when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - The application has it's own version checking on install so an appshelp message is not needed. - Shortcuts not installed under All Users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - Apphelp to notify users this version is incompatible with WinXP - During install the application would state that it does not run under NT. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - CorrectFilePaths applied to installer to complete installation of Start menu shortcuts. - Application would fail setup because of version checking. Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Application would then fail to run because of two binaries: Launch.exe and Checker.exe, both needed Win95VersionLie - Application then generated errors. This was fixed by IgnoreException and VirtualRegistry - VirtualRegistry fixes "Cannot Detect 3D Hardware" message to default to software rendering. Can't do better since they're walking the DYN_DATA key on their own. - EnableRestarts added for setup. - The matching-info works for both CDs. - This game gets confused by themes when it calls SetWindowLong() to remove the caption, we end up re-entering the windproc on a WM_SIZE and we fault becase the app is not ready for that message yet. - On SB Live! cards, this app hangs during the opening, due toa bug in portcls.sys which causes non-looping KS hardware buffers below some size never to complete. Fixed with a DSound apphack. The name of the TCP loopback adapter was changed from MS Loopback Adapter to Microsoft Loopback Adapter. Resonate looks for the old name. - Better matching information added - Eased matching information for setup.exe - MAPI DLLs don't ship with Win2K, and with Outlook 2000 they get installed in a different location (%commonprogramfiles%) - Resume Maker and possibly others depend on MAPI dlls being in system32 directory. - Fixed by adding %CommonProgramFiles%\System\Mapi\1033\NT to search path. - App was checking for available disk space during file save operation. Use EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace. - Was only installing for current user instead of all users - App AV when user choose File-Send to Word Processor menu. The latest download to upgrade to Version 8.0.1 fixes this problem. - App is using RICHED32.DLL which in Windows XP thunked by RICHED20.DLL. In Windows XP, printed text get truncated if it's too long. In Win9x, printed text is wrapped into the next line. Apphelp message is provided to notify user about this. - Adding Apphelp and Migration matching info. - Fixed matching info. The old one is weak and resulting in duplicate with Create Resume Quick And Easy 3. - Fixed matching info for ResumeMaker.exe. - Updated matching info to cover ResumeMaker.exe v7.3 patch. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Setup was unable to register the OCX controls as hardcoded 'system' path was used in calls to LoadLibrary. The files are copied over to the System32 dirctory but the Loadlibrary path is hardcoded to the system directory. The app specific shim fixes this issue. - Install program is 16-bit (for that we have put in a fix in ntvdm) - it detects NT however it cannot run properly without a GACF_HACKWINFLAGS - To make this work on Win2k one would have to enable implementation of GACF_HACKWINFLAGS in wow32/krnl386.exe so do not port this entry over unless this had been done - 32-bit part of the installation program runs on the assumption that it is running on Win9X platform (we lie to the 16-bit executable) and misplaces wing.dll which causes games not to run - Install program's module name conflicts with the module name of Exchange setup -- Moved GACF_HACKWINFLAGS - App won't launch, version error. Fixed with win95versionlie - Due to the dll search path change, EBU*.exe will load the wrong console.dll. LoadLibraryCWD fixes the issue. - Application looks for: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaResourcesACM\MSACM.MSADPCM in the registry, that key have been moved to: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32\MSACM.MSADPCM - IE shortcuts were being placed in %windir%\Favorites, should be in Documents and Settings\user name\Favorites - GetDIBits is very slow with the DIB_PAL_COLORS entry, force to DIB_RGB_COLORS The function that begins at address 0x4137f4 allocates a local array of MAX_PATH characters. This function then calls the function at 0x4272f0, passing this array as a parameter. The function in 0x4272f0 assumes the array is zero-filled, and places a directory name into it. This array may contain random data, left over from a previous function call to lstrcpy. This sometimes results in an improperly terminated string (rather than "C:\", "C:\w") which causes the call to GetFileAttributes at 0x41381C to fail. The installation fails with an "Activation Error." - SecurROM uses IOCTLs that need to have the correct R/W permission for devices - Changed to use the VEH shim engine, default engine does not work. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - App requires 256 colors to run. - Fixed with the Force8BitColor shim. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - After Migration from Win9x to WinXP the application does not run properly. Reinstalling the application will repair problem. The application should be flagged during migration to warn that a reinstall will be needed. - Changed matching info to limit to 2.2 - Write.exe path changed from %windir%\write.exe to %windir%\system32\write.exe - Added PropagateProcessHistory to find matching files when run from the autorun. - Added setup.exe with PPH because it launches _INS5576 - RiskII.dll replaces RiskII's custom non-hardware cursors with very similar looking system hardware cursors that don't flicker when the primary surface is locked. - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - Used CorrectFilePaths to fix the zone URL - Also fixes the rundll32 path for the uninstaller - Used CorrectFilePaths to fix readme NOTE: this is one of the few cases where we DO wish to catch ikernel.exe and not data1.hdr from InstallShield 6. - Used RemoveDDEFlagFromShellExecuteEx to correct web link problem - Added entry for riven.exe with file size = 878592 This accounts for another version of the app. - Added .exe for Riven DVD. Modified matching info for Broderbund CD version. These changes were per markder's request as the matching info was too loose. - Removed excess matching info - Added DelayWinMMCallback and DisableScreenSaver - Found by amarp - Removed excess matching info - Added DisableScreenSaver per amarp - Added NoGhost and EmulateCDFS to fix sound and movie playback problems - For some reason any shim that hooks LoadLibraryA fixes some cutout problems, so IgnoreLoadLibrary was added. - App sends "Initialization Error" when to run Rashme.exe. Program tries to CreateProcess for ROADRASH.EXE with incorrect memebers of STARTUPINFO struct in NT system. Added entry for Rashme.exe with EmulateCreateProcess.dll. - RoadRash.exe can't handle Alt-Tab properly under Win2K. It's disabled under Win9x. - Help produces error when launched from autorun Fixed with EmulateMissingExe - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - After a migration from Win9x to Whistler videoplayback functionality is lost via DXVA, yet the decoder does still function after migration. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be reinstalled when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - This application is incompatible with this version of WindowsXP. AV occurs when attmpt to launch this application. - This entry is what to appshelp this app V4/V5 and to list into the update report as incompatible app. - Change VenderName from "Techno Craft" to "TechnoCraft". A space is not needed. - Updated matching info for different looking V5 - Will not start sound system if it believes it is not on Win95 - Alt-Tab doesn't work properly - it's disabled on Win9x, so we do the same - Cleaned up matching info - App AV's when printing if there is no default printer or using a network printer, caused by passing null printer handle and bad printer info to SetPrinter. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - App AV's when using local printer, caused by lack of PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT option in EnumPrinters in w2k and app usage of deleted printer info. Corrected with EmulatePrinter. - During gameplay if the StickyKeys accessibility shortcut is active the application dumps out to the desktop when shift, the jump key, is pressed 5 consecutive times. DisableStickyKeys temporarily disables the option at DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH and re-enables the option at DLL_PROCESS_DETACH. - App writes to bad memory: they get lucky on Win9x because it happens to be valid - Fixed with IgnoreException - HideDisplayModes used to restrict mode list - Synchronization issues fixed with EmulateDirectDrawSync - Application misaligns it's stack with word push and pop instructions. These cause problems for APIs that pass stack buffers to kernel because some memory functions fail on unaligned buffers. - The fix is to remove the size override on the push and pop instructions to prevent misalignment. - Also remove an AV on exit caused by calling IDirectDraw::Release through a freed interface. - This requires the patch available from http://www.hasbrointeractive.com/microprose. - Same fixes as linstev found, just applied them to the "out of the box" versions, without the hasbro patch. - Use Stackswap to fix a screen snapshot problem. Stack is out of alignment when calling createfile. - Shortcuts not copied to all users' start menu Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Patch matching info was inaccurate between builds. - This application does not function properly under WindowsXP. There is an update for the application available but does not take care of the problem. The application access violates when trying to exit a new game with out the patch, and access violates when trying to start a new game. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry will produce an apphelp under Whistler stating that there is a patch available from the vendor, with a URL to where the patch can be found. - This program shows up just in the menu of the user who installed. And also there are shorcuts remainig after uninstallation. When uninstall, the 2 files are needed. - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Fixed by version lie. - The application launched a wrapper that would either launch an express setup or custom setup for QuickTime. It's not actually the QuickTime installer so moving the entry from QuickTime to here so it only matches this instance of the installer. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Task switching causes video corruption at various points in gameplay - Application would not print to network printers. - Rugrats Totally Angelica, game won't keep focus; missing the bottom part of the screen making navigation difficult - Setup failed to install a desktop shortcut because it checked the attributes for several directories that now have the read-only bit set. - App calls an RPC send/receive during an ASYNC callback. The shim prevents this from happening. No idea why this worked on Win9x. - Unable to remove Programs\Sabrina the Teenage Witch directory. - Audio mapped to wrong audio device. Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Force display mode to 640x480x256 to prevent game bugs from crashing the app - Mig entry. App AV's at launch attempting to execute in/out instructions to retrieve system diagnostic info. - No apphelp needed as app has its own version block on install. - Set TokenOwner to administrators group SID. - App is not installing the program shortcuts under allusers profile. - ProfilesSetup layer fixed the problem. - Applying CorrectFilePathsUninstall to the uninstall program of the app. - Sanitarium checks for the win version. - SapGUI.Exe and SapLogon.exe have problem with Windows XP Themes. They are using custom draw title bar that won't refresh properly and leave Windows XP large title bar trail. DisableThemes shim fixes this. - Adding front.exe with DisableThemes shim. - This app has a synchronization bug - Fixed by DisableBoostThread - Watson bucket: 2183384 - Fix heap corruption - Watson bucket: 2196070 - The application produce an error stating that the OS was not supported. This is fixed with Win95VersionLie. - The application would get stuck in an install loop because it is checking for the presence of WinG.dll in System when it is located in System32. This is fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32. - These fixes apply to both disks. - Merge of QT32INS.EXE entries - During gameplay the application tries to use a 16-bit dll with 32-bit process. This is allowed in Win9x but errors under Whistler. If the 16-bit version of the application is installed the app functions properly without error. SchoolHouseRockMath.dll directs the GetProfileString to look to the 16-bit sections of setup.inf instead of the 32-bit sections to install the 16-bit version. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - loosened matching information - App won't install due to os version checking. Win95VersionLie takes care of this. - App tried to find WinG and QuickTime32 files in %windir%\system32 which were installed in %windir%\system folder. SyncSystemAndSystem32.dll makes sure the files copied to both folders. - Add inclusion/exclusion for Win95VersionLie. - Merge of QT32INS.EXE entries - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - USB sound mapped to audio card Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice - App won't install due to os version checking.

Win98VersionLie takes care of this. - Application would cause errors when installing DirectX. ForceDXSetupSuccess fixes this. - This app looped on install because it was looking for old keys - Adjusted Interplay EReg, above, to handle this app as well - Sticky keys interrupts game Fixed with DisableStickyKeys - Alt-tab causes crash or graphics corruption Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - found alt-tab problems to be driver specific. Removed IgnoreAltTab - Changed matching criteria to match all install types - Changed matching criteria again to match all install types - Changed matching criteria per request from publisher - App setup (Korean local) installs program shortcuts to current user profile. It needs ProfileSetup layer to make it installs to all user profile. - The application fails to get partition information when right clicking on a drive. The app does get partition info when it is launched from the start menu. - ServerStart says it needs at least NT 4.0 to run. - Fixed with VRegistry. - Telnet Client and Telnet Server don't work on XP or Windows Server 2003; NIS component needs hotfix to work on Windows Server 2003 DC - Need to change matching to not catch SFU 3.0 - Added Matching information for SFU 2.0 JPN - Fix apps broken by ISAPI lockdown - Audio plays through sound card when USB audio is present. Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath - App looks for wing32.dll in the System32 dir though it only copies it to the System dir. Use the SyncSystemAndSystem32 shim to fix this. - Thread with High priority is starving the app and the OS making it appear that the App and OS are hung. Fixed with IgnoreScheduler shim. - The program (disc-2) can't run because it is checking for WinG32.dll in system32 folder, while the file was installed in system folder. This is fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32. - Audio mapped to wrong device when USB and WDM audio devices are present. This is fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Loosened matching criteria with removal of filesize and checksums - 2nd CD USB audio not previously fixed Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Alt-Tab causes video corruption / crashes Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit exes. - WinG32 was being loaded out of the system directory, not system32. Wing posts a messagebox when this happens. Fixed with the wing shim applied to MMM32.exe. Other shims applied to setup are either not necessary or being fixed elsewhere. - 16 bit executables removed: Setup.exe (SyncSystemAndSystem32 replaced with WinG32SysToSys32 applied to MMM32.exe WaveOutUsePreferredDevice removed. Being fixed in multimedia. IgnoreAltTab removed. CorrectFilePaths removed. Was unnecessary as wow has fix built in.) -The program can't run because it is checking for WinG32.dll in system32 folder, while the file was installed in system folder. This is fixed with SyncSystemAndSystem32. -Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths -Version error during install Fixed with Win95VersionLie -Audio emmitted from wrong device Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice - Fixed matching info - During uninstall the start menu folder was not being removed because a handle in use was not closed before trying to remove the directory. EmulateFindHandles takes care of the problem. - EmulateFindHandles needs to be added to the install since the user can run the uninstall right after installation. This cause the install shims to be applied to the uninstall. - Added matching info for SKU #2 - Changed matching criteria for Art Workshop as it was being caught by Sesame Street Get Set for Kindergarten 2.0 - App requires GetStdHandle not to return 0. - Modified the matching criteria to match all the Ptolemy ID's. - Adjusted matching criteria to hit all versions of Art Workshop - App would not install due to OS version - USB Audio mapped to wrong device Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Installer needs to place wing and wing32 in system, otherwise it doesn't think it's installed - EmulateGetStdHandle required on the main game to prevent a crash that happens when launched from the 16-bit autoplay - Passes invalid arguments to acmstreamOpen. This problem manifests as a result of the security fix, which validates the parameters in IMA ADPCM. - USB Audio mapped to wrong device Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - This is a lost entry from Neptune - Version lying - Installed WING.DLL to System32 directory but then looked for it in System to determine if app was installed. SyncSystemAndSystem32 copies it over to System right after it's copied to System32. - During uninstall the start menu folder was not being removed because a handle in use was not closed before trying to remove the directory. EmulateFindHandles takes care of the problem. - Updated EXE information below. Because of directory structure on the CD, the shim 'EmulateFindHandles' was not loading. This is because the directory structure during install is '\INSDATA'. The structure during uninstall is '\INSDATA\UNINSTALL'. This caused the matching information not to work during the uninstall. - There appears to be another version of the app with a different layout then the previous entry. An entry for the new version has been added. - Shortcuts not getting created under all users Fixed with correctfilepaths - App produced "Target OS not supported" error This is taken care of with Win95VersionLie. - After installing the application, the autorun looks for Wing and wing32 to be present in the system32 directory. This is taken care of with SyncSystemAndSystem32. - Start menu folder not created Fixed with CorrectFilePaths.dll - Start menu icons were not removed on uninstall Fixed with CorrectFilePathsUninstall.dll, matching info expanded - USB Audio mapped to wrong device Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice.dll - Passes invalid arguments to acmstreamOpen. This problem manifests as a result of the security fix, which validates the parameters in IMA ADPCM. - App produced insufficient disk space error when installing to drive with more than 2GB of free space. If drive contains more than 2GB return 2GB of available space when GetDiskFreeSpace() is called - App's copy-protection expects the CPU direction flag to be maintained over calls to certain kernel APIs like WaitForSingleObject, SetEvent and ResetEvent - Fixed by storing and restoring this flag before and after each call - App gets caught by the 5 second hung message queue problem. - Solution is to reset delay after a mode change. - SevenKingdoms shim replaced original shim (ForceModeValidate) which was not general enough. We now call PeekMessage (to prevent the hung app problem) on IDirectInputDevice::Acquire which is called frequently. - SevenKingdoms also fixes the installer which tries to read localization settings out of win.ini. - VirtualRegistry makes NoDriveTypeAutorun a REG_DWORD instead of a REG_BINARY as it was on win9x. - Loosened matching info on 7k.exe to catch another versions with the same problem. - Loosened matching info - Replaced app specific shim with a generic IgnoreHungAppPaint - App is using 0xFFFFFFFF for filter max parameter to GetMessage and PeekMessage. This is causing the application to not receive messages. The listed entries are for the CD version and 2 updates available directly from the UbiSoft web site. - During DirectX installation an error occurs stating this version of DX(7.0a) is not compatible with this OS. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - Setup does not restart machine Fixed with EnableRestarts - The application doesn't detect that there is sufficient disk space on drives larger than 2GB. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - The application doesn't detect that there is sufficient disk space on drives larger than 2GB. EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace takes care of the problem. - Loosened matching criteria to cover launching from CD and Hard drive - App requires Win9X to install. Fixed with Win95versionlie - Not supported on Windows Server 2003 - Added the correct registry values to match the server and not the client as was done with the previous matching. - Added Launch.exe entry to softblock the french and spanish server/sp1 version - Added additional registry values to catch RTM version since original entry only caught SP1 - SHARP would like to notify the machine is SHARP Preinstalled machine and they want users to visit their web site before upgrade to notify the issue of Upgrade to WindowsXP. - All Sharp preinstalled machine has sharp_j.hlp file on the desktop, this is enough info MI. - SHARP reported that there is no Link file for Sharp_j.hlp on the latest machines so I added new entries for the machine for not having link file. These URL files will not be in machines except Sharp Preinstalled machines since this url files are linked to www.Sharp.co.jp then if someone put it into Favorite, its name will be just "SHARP". so these files can be identified Sharp machines with sharp_j.hlp. - Need to add it to "SHOWINSIMPLIFIEDVIEW" section to show this entry on upgrade report by default. - DX Version Error during install Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - Prevent failing when its app path name has hi ascii character. The bug is ShFolder.Exe compares its app path with space (0x20) by signed char basis. Hi ascii char (typically DBCS) is chopped as considered less than space (0x20). When app path is double quoted, the bug code is not processed for app path. ShFolder shim wrap app path with double quote at GetCommandLineA. - Found similar problems with dcsetup.exe and wmad.exe, both from Microsoft. - ShFolder.Exe version 5.5 is now released and it also need this fix. - Just change BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION to UPTO_BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION="5.50". - Setup and App accesses to HKDD. VirtualRegistry helps this. - Inf contains remark. To strip it, EmulateGetProfileString was used. - Main EXE must run on Win9x. Win95 layer helps it. - Application setup is checking OS version and Win95VersionLie will solve the issue and after setup, this app will work fine. - Application setup is checking OS version and Win95VersionLie will solve the issue and after setup, this app will work fine. - App thinks it should only run under 95 - Win95VersionLie fixes this. - Application setup is checking OS version and Win95VersionLie will solve the issue and after setup, this app will work fine. - App has bad redraw problems when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Fixes the following version 4 installers: 1. Dual Strike 2. Force Feedback Wheel (USB) 3. Game Pad Pro 4. Precision Steering Wheel Which all depended on the the current user being an administrator for no good reason. - Included a Win98VersionLie to prevent a warning message - Removed Win98VersionLie shim - side effects worse than the warning message - 16 bit version unsupported on Whistler - DInput team has no resources fix this - These are web downloads, but MS won't be changing the names - Only the English version had better matching resources. - Added more versions - Added blocking for uncompressed 3.02 - Uses old DSETUP.DLL that has SMAP_LS linkages - Lost in Neptune conversion - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - App does not launch Fixed with Win98VersionLie - NoGhost and DisableThemes to fix random issues - odbcsql.exe needs EmulateHeap. - Adding Apphelp for Siebel 2000 Server setup components - Added 3-D Ultra Mini Golf case - Modified the entry so that all instances of Sierra Utilities is shimmed. - Applications fixed with this entry include the following: Half Life Gold 3D Ultra Mini Golf Deluxe Cart Racing - This App will cause an access violation after open or creating any graphics. Later version work fine. - Modified matching info for version 5.05.

In Win9x, this wrong argument is ignored but as the result, the filename being copied is not shown in file copy progress dialog. In NT, this generates AV. HandleWvsprintfExceptions.dll corrects the pointer into va_list. - Error on machines with greater than 2gb free Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace.dll - Error when installing DX3 from setup Fixed with IgnoreMessageBox.dll - Display corruption after ALT-TAB. Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab. - Removed filesize and checksum from matching criteria - Added DSETUP exclusion because if it is lied to, it will try to load Win9x version of DirectX 3 setup, which has SMAP_LS linkages. - Also eased matching info. - disk space error on >2gb machines Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFresSpace - Application stated there was not enough free space on drives with 2G or more free.

There is a setting in the app to re-start the app, when ever windows is launched. But app is not getting launched, even it is set so. - The real problem was with the creation of registry key, which was failing under WHISTLER environment. VirtualRegistry solved the issue. - The functionality of this app is native to whister.

The Win95VersionLie will take care of the required OS version for the setup.Also, the app was searching in the Win9x paths during installation and was not placing the link on the Desktop properly. CorrectFilePaths.dll will take care of that. - Also, the app is uses TextToSpeech conversion DLL's and it was hardcoding the path as 'C:\Voices32' when it installs the 'Voices32' directory on the current partition. This was corrected by adding the VirtualRegistry.DLL with the command line= "SPELLITDELUXE". - Modified VirtualRegistry.dll and created a different set of matching info. - Needs MS VB 5.0 Runtime bits to register dll during setup - App is using riched32.dll and it has problem while editing text object in a graph. Apphelp is provided to warn user about this problem. - Program Faults if you click on Register Later - Fixed by HeapLookasideFree.dll and HeapValidateFrees.dll - HEAPCHANGE: HeapValidateFrees -> EmulateHeap - HEAPCHANGE: HeapLookasideFree -> EmulateHeap - Hardcoded Windows path in uninstall key in registry - Used by Cox Communications - Atlanta - Doesn't install shortcuts correctly - Used by Cox Communications - Atlanta - Applying LoadLibraryCWD to the setup to resolve a conflict with pidgen.dll - STPSILNT._EX needed LoadLibraryCWD as well during installation on a cluster. - Loosened matching to catch all varients of SQL 2000 - To prevent any security weaknesses, prevent opening of sockets on non-updated versions of sql server. - Added "NotSupported" setup apphelp and upgrade notification. SQL 2000 SP2 and below are unsupported for Windows Server 2003 - Keep this entry seperate from the shim entries for SQL Server 2000 so that the App Name field specifies "and below" since SP3 will be supported, and we need the message to be clear that only previous versions are unsupported - SQL 2000 OLAP Services SP2 and below are not supported in Windows Server 2003 - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Changed Apphelp message from "Backoffice 4.x" to "NotSupported" for Windows Server 2003 - Added migration notification - SQL 7.0 is incompatible with Windows Server 2003 without SP3 installed. Softblock SQL 7.0, SP1, and SP2 with a custom message informing user to install SP3. - For 9x migration, all versions of SQL 7.0 need to uninstall then reinstall after upgrade - Added sqlagent version matching to not block SQL 2000, which shipped an older version of comnevnt.dll than did SQL7SP2 or SP3. - Shimmed _INS55176._MP with LoadLibraryCWD so that the path would propagate to RegSvr32.exe which will then successfully register the com object that has a dll name confilict with sfc.dll. - All versions of SQL 7 are now not supported. Loosening matching info, and replacing custom messages with generic Incompatible. - Changed from Incompatible message to NotSupported. - Removed AppsHelp for individual entries as they are overkill - Edited WINNT_UPGRADE message to catch foreign versions of SQL. - Needs SQL 7 SP3 installed.

This is Win2K regression bug. - Fixed using VirtualRegistry shim with Win2K commandline parameter. - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - App tries to delete all subkeys of a registry key: on 9x this works, but on NT all subkeys have to be removed first. - Fixed with VirtualRegistry - Icons not installed for all users. Fixing with ProfilesSetup layer. - App installs it's own memory routines for Global* if it's on NT. One of the side-effects is that a GlobalAlloc of size 0 will succeed. This causes AVIFil32 to get confused and it divides by zero. - A simple version lie takes care of the problem - Note: as of 06/27/2000 it only works on Win2k, because the imports are patched early - Updated matching info - Improperly failing on the version check; need version lie - Installing to the wrong folders; need CorrectFilePaths - Shortcut not placed in all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - The app is multi-threaded, but the app sets the DDSCL_MULTITHREADED flag too late: after D3D is initialized. This hack basically turns on multi-threaded locking for D3D. - Fix by rankala and ssteiner - AutoPlay needs to have it's CreateProcess call cleaned up - App is not specifying proper access rights when opening reg keys.

Use EnableRestarts to fix. - Setup needs a version lie - They open the CD Rom and try to read files from it, forcing a STOP_AUDIO IOCTL fixes this. - Matching info altered to be compatible with Win2000 - Needed PropagateProcessHistory.dll to catch InstallShield - EmulateHeap required to fix a buffer overrun - DirectX 7.0a install. - Readme not displayed on autorun app - Shortcut not placed on desktop - They use the CD-ROM while playing movies - Modified existing entry with IgnoreLoadLibrary to keep the application from forcing the user to install DirectX 5.0 - Alt tab problem in game fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Setup and Autorun detected NT and would not install. Win95VersionLie takes care of this problem. - Applied IgnoreLoadLibrary to keep the application from forcing the user to install DirectX 5.0 - App was calling OutputDebugString tons of times, causing severe slowdown - Registration taken care of by Interplay Registration above - Application needs focus. - SFC2 and StarFleet2 both need application focus. - QuickTime install gives: String variable is not large enough for string. Check the string declarations. Error 401. - Fixed by version lie. - Prefs.txt was still open for write when MssnWchr starts executing since sscreate had not closed down. - Use Quake Direct3D wrapper as OpenGL implementation - Requires DirectX8 - *DO NOT* snap for Windows Update - Removed engine = veh - Removed Filesize and checksum matching criteria - Added demo - Slow mouse movement when app is ran. - This control panel applet is being listed in the upgrade report as not supported in WinXP. The following entry will keep the applet from being listed. - Application access violated due to bad directX checks, corrected with correctfilepaths and fileversioninfolie. - No description available for this history entry. - App checked for existence of DDHELP.EXE to verify DirectX install. Fixed by routing DDHELP.EXE to DDRAW.DLL via CorrectFilePaths.dll. - Modified to clean up matching info. - App reads version info from dsound.vxd and looks for ddhelp.exe to verify DirectX - Redirect the version strings and file paths - Modified to clean up matching info. - System check fails O/S test, lie that O/S is Win95 - Installation attempts to create Desktop link in %windir%\Desktop, - Location of Wordpad.exe moved from %windir% to Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe - Fixed read access violation caused by reading 1 dword before allocation start - Tested using Win2K method as well - Modified to clean up matching info. - Added the resource for DDRAW.DLL and DDHELP.EXE version 6.1 that this app was looking for.

Original xml pointed to root drive's setup, which launches setup located in the install directory. Applying shim to setup.exe in the install directory allows both cases to work as expected. - App plays sounds from different user session when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - App is looking for a DLL in the windows folder which is now located in the system32 folder. Applying RedirectWindowsDirToSystem32 fixes this. - App does not launch when run on 2nd user session with FUS. - DX loop on launch Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX error on launch Fixed with FileVersionInfoLie and CorrectFilePaths - Troubleshooting guide does not launch from autorun Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Loosened matching info to catch first run and minimal install - App calls SetWindowsHookEx with bad parameters: the hModule parameter is NULL which defaults on Win9x to the current process handle. - The fix is correct the parameter before calling SetWindowsHook - Modified to clean up matching info. - CorrectFilePaths for desktop shortcut. - Old LucasArts problem while looking for DdHelp - shim redirects to Ddraw.dll and return DX6 version resources. - Use EmulateUSER to prevent keyboard lockup while creating new players. - Version lie to get joystick support - Modified to clean up matching info. - DXDiag does not launch from launcher, app was looking at registry to find dxdiag path, this is no longer supported.

This is fixed with CorrectFilePaths. - The application would try to open Shadows.txt when opening the Troubleshooting Guide. The correct file is Shadows.doc. This is fixed with CorrectFilePaths as well. - Modified to clean up matching info. - Removed matching file on shadows.exe as it did not exist (possibly just with this copy?). - Added VirtualRegistry to fix RegSetValueEx problem - Added EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace to fix disk error issue - Was creating desktop link in %windir%\desktop - Setup does not complete and terminates: Setup Complete and Registry windows do not appear. Win95VersionLie fixes this problem. - Setup does not recognize the latest DirectX version and asks for DirectX install. DDraw6FileVersionLie.dll fixes this problem. No matching files are supplied because this can be executed from the CD or the install directory. - Analyze Your Computer and Joystick Options in Hardware Configuration do not work. CorrectFilePaths.dll and DDraw6FileVersionLie fix these problems. - Analyze your computer option from Autorun menu fails in OS test. Win95VersionLie fixes this problem. - Modified to clean up matching info. - App will not run on multiple sessions. - Boot EXE needs CorrectFilePaths shim to find DirectX - App dereferences an uninitialized pointer. Fixed with IgnoreException. Found by jeffno. - EmulateCDFS fixes another crash - IgnoreALtTabEx fixes visual problems when windows key is pressed - Loosened matching info to catch "Balance of Power" expansion - Intro video pauses and loops when played on dual proc machines Fixed with SingleProcAffinity - Install does not reboot at end of setup.

Win95 version lying fixed the problem. - Second entry for screen saver setup - Start menu shortcuts are only created in the profile from which the app is installed. Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - The registration would display an error stating that "text property is read-only" and terminate. This is similar to the problem with AAA map'n'go by DeLorme. WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the problem. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - These packages incorrectly assume that the source location will be automatically resolved at a certain point of the install, and have logic after that point that relies on the source having been resolved. In Whistler, the source resolution point has moved to a later point of the install. If the first bit in SHIMFLAGS is set, it will enable a fix where we automatically resolve the source in the InstallValidation action as long as we are not performing a full uninstall. - App gives glide2x.dll error when launched - Fixed with Ingnore Exceptions - Stop illegal modification of palette - Shell32!FindExecutable does not work correctly for WORDPAD.EXE, apply virtual registry to correct the value for wordpad. - Application was calling DDE's DeleteGroup on a directory that it has inuse because of calling FindFirstFile without calling FindClose. RmoveDirectoryInUse corrects this situation. Need to warn users of an update package that increases stability -Need to expand where the warning comes from - App freezes or drops to desktop during game play. EmulateHeap fixes it. - App was hanging when Clicked on Print or preview button. - Setup must run on Win95. Lie it. - Main EXE needs Win95. Lie it. - Main EXE needs 256 colors display mode.

VirtualRegistry handles this. - App setup (MediaWin.exe) is using uninitialized local variable and got AV when trying to set value on it. In Win9x, this program survived because call to GetModuleHandleA does not destroy the stack frame. In Whistler (not in Win2K), it needs StackSwap to prevent stack corruption. - Separated entries for "Castrol Superbike World Champions" from Intense Simulations and "Superbike World Championship" from Electronic Arts. - Loading Libraries within DllMain call causes it to hang. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Needs to ignore exceptions - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - app does not run Fixed with Win98VersionLie and HideDisplayModes - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The following entry applies to the setup of versions 1.02 and 3.03 under Whistler.

RedirectDBCSTempPath shim takes care of this - Matching file names ended with JA are Japanese version specific - The power plus screensaver (ppo3svr.scr) is bundled with Lotus Super Office 2000 Japanese. ScreenSaverConfigureDialog could not launch by clicking Settings button in Display Properties on Whistler. Ppo3svrScr shim forces showing ScreenSaverConfigureDialog. - Shortcuts not copied over to all users, fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Appshelp entry - ISV has stated this version is Incompatible on upgrade from win2k to Windows Server 2003 . - Command line needs to use short file names (ie no spaces), Use CorrectFilePaths to correct only the GetCommandLine values. - This application does not function properly under Whistler. The application has it's own version check and message when trying to install under NT. The following entry adds it to the list of apps to be removed (uninstalled) before upgrading to Whistler. It also creates an appshelp message if the user fails to uninstall the application before upgrading. - Improved matching info to be more specific. - Added apphelp for "SurfWatch" and "SurfWatch Updater". - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Removed SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW - This application is just for Windows 9x. - OEM requested this migration entry. - Web button doesnt work because CreateProcess doesn't support "start http://...." Fixed with EmulateMissingEXE. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer. - Setup assumed rundll32 was in {windows} for registration link. CorrectFilePaths fixes that - Atttune setup does incorrect Windows version checking and gives error message stating that NT4 or higher is not detected. But when we gave NT4SP5VersionLie, Atttune setup gives inconsistent error message stating that it is not made for NT. Given Win95VersionLie corrects this. This changes a hardcoded "WinDir\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs" to its new location "SystemDrive\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs." - No description available for this history entry. -Needed NT4 SP5 Versionlie. - The Touchpad icon is missing from the systray and the Control Panel mouse applet after upgrading from Win9x to WinXP. These are the only ways to launch the app. The application needs to be reinstall after migration - Moved the application to the Incompatible section and added the message PatchAvailable to the entry as per test request. - Application expects DuplicateHandle to not modify *lpTargetHandle if it is not successful. - Application does not properly restore the stack when returning from the Service Control Routine. - Generic entry to capture all syscheck routines from lucasarts. Entry now handles faster cpu's when analyze is selected. - App tries to directly access the hard drive. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - App is checking for windows version. Requires version lie. - correct matching info for multiple versions. - Win95VersionLie should only be applied to the exe not DirectX setup. - This application uses an old version of SafeDisc that will never run on NT. I removed the version lie that worked around the version check. - Apphelp entry. PatchAvailable. - Verlie added back in to allow install. - Migdb entry for migration from 9x. PatchAvailable. - Shortcuts copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Incompatible with NT - This sound utility will not be launched on WindowsXP with out error. - There is no unique file for MI, so we need to use size and checksum for Data2.cab. - After installation Autorun.exe does not enable PLAY option. - CorrectFilePaths and HandleAPIExceptions fix this problem - Alt+tab out of the game will cause mouse stuck. - Use IgnoreAltTabEx shim to fix it. - Link to application's website is broken. - Fixed with EmulateMissingEXE shim. - Loosened the app’s matching info. - Application thinks it should only run under 95 - Win95VersionLie fixes this issue. - This application does not function properly under WindowsXP. The following entry will produce an apphelp under Whistler stating to the user the application is incompatible with this version of Windows. - Adjusted Interplay EReg matching info to catch this app's EReg program - Heap problems fixed by EmulateHeap - Watson bucket: 8075771, 7289531 Nonclient theming: app-rendered nonclient buttons overlap theme buttons. This could not be dealt with effectively with theme revocation from offending window because the app caches the themed nc button width and uses the theme metrics for redrawing tracked buttons, but uses classic metrics for hittest and normal painting. - Shortcuts not created for all users Fixed with ProfilesRegQueryValueEx - Shortcuts not being removed under all users Fixed with Correctfilepaths - App expects system palette to be available - Software version uses priviliged instructions - Readme file was looked for in wrong directory, fixed with CorrectFilePaths. - App pallete corrupts if app is alt-tabbed. This occurs on win98 also. AltTabIgnore is used to prevent app from being switched out of to prevent corruption. Note that ctrl-alt-del can not be stopped. - When attempting to install or launch the app via the autorun, the app produces an error and fails to install. Needed EmulateCDFS to work properly. - 2nd version of CD found with slightly different directory structure. - When attempting to install or launch the app via the autorun, the app produces an error and fails to install. Needed EmulateCDFS to work properly. - Changed matching info so the fix will also be applied to Road Thrills: Test Drive 6. - App faults after FUS. - App has display corruption after FUS. - Fixed with the IgnoreAltTab shim. -Applicaton does not detect free space over 2Gb. Fixed with the EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace.dll. - Setup detected incorrect disk drive free space, corrected with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace. - Needed File path corrections for copy from CD Rom. - Needed EmulateFindHandles for Uninstall. - Autorun requires shim on GetFileAttributes for the CD - Main app uses priv mode instructions and requires memory mapped at B0000. - Autorun requires shim on GetFileAttributes for the CD. This is fixed with EmulateCDFS. - Installation requires a Win98versionlie. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesGetFolderPath - App has a fault during FreeHeap, EmulateHeap correct the problem. - Watson bucket: 2475042 - Links to a version of DSETUP.DLL that can't handle Whistler's DX7.0. Fixed by forcing DSETUP!DirectXSetup to return success. - The app was using "Start" to launch the URL. Fixed by using EmulateMissingExe. - Application specifies that it must be installed and run under Win95 Win95 version lying solves the problem - There are two entries due to two versions of the media. - When launching the application you receive an OS not supported error.

Patch ThomasAndFriends takes care of the privileged instructions. - pallette corruption on alt-tab Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - ThrustMaster 2.13 from running not compatible with XP. - Synchronization app bug masked by IgnoreScheduler - Apps installer incorrectly installs all course files causing install size to unexpectedly increase. Fixed by Win98VersionLie. - App has a thread sheduling problem that breaks the three point click swing in the game. - Fixed with the IgnoreScheduler shim. - Compact install not picked up by matching info. Removed Data\Golfer\TWB3B.FSH - Tiger Woods PGA Tour Collection (Tiger Woods 99) - App does not see itself installed after setup when launched from autorun. - Fixed with the VirtualRegistry shim. - They install a Win9x version of WS2HELP.DLL (a system DLL) to the same directory as TW2000.ICD (the main EXE). The Win9x DLL has linkages to system APIs that exist on Win9x only, so the loader fails to resolve all the static imports. - Fusion (a.k.a. SXS) is used here to redirect the loader to the system32 directory when loading WS2HELP.DLL. These fixes will only work on NT 5.1 or greater. - The setup itself also had similar problems, it linked to KERNEL32!SetHandleContext and KERNEL32!CreateSocketHandle which do not exist on NT. BryanT added stubs for these obsolete APIs. - Setup installs the courses (500mb) no matter which setup type is selected, resulting in a compact install of 575mb, instead of the stated 75mb. Fixed with Win98VersionLie. - Fixed so setup installs for all users instead of just current user - Added IgnoreException to allow game to run in software mode - Three mouse click swing does not work after the v1.4 patch is installed Fixed with IgnoreScheduler shim Redirects loader to WS2HELP.DLL from System32. - Version error, will not install on NT Fixed with Win95versionlie - They install a Win9x version of WS2HELP.DLL (a system DLL) to the same directory as TW2001.EXE. The Win9x DLL has linkages to system APIs that exist on Win9x only, so the loader fails to resolve all the static imports. - Fusion (a.k.a. SXS) is used here to redirect the loader to the system32 directory when loading WS2HELP.DLL. These fixes will only work on NT 5.1 or greater. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilepaths - Three mouse click swing does not work Fixed with IgnoreScheduler shim Redirects loader to WS2HELP.DLL from System32. - App uses the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED incorrectly for CreateFile - Win9x ignores this flag for disks - Can't connect to locked machines or machines with screen savers running - AppHelp'd with specific workaround instructions - Version error during install Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - DX error - Acer Time Machine will not run on Whistler, but it takes 20 mins to error out. - So we are blocking it at runtime. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - File association for this app does not quote the filename argument, so long file names with spaces are parsed incorrectly and cannot be opened. Timeslips shim converts first argument to a short name. - Does not add program to start menu of new owner. It is fixed using ProfilesSetup layer. - Taskbar pallette displays during gameplay after return from task switch. Adjust CreateWindow parameters to make only very simple windows. All mode changes are made temporary in nature, i.e. restored on process termination. Overrides all thread priority levels to Normal since the app tries to set time critical priority for some of the threads. - App is making calls to SetSysColors API and the color settings remain changed even when the app is closed. It is fixed using IgnoreSysColChanges.dll. - 2 instances of the game cannot run at the same time. At launch of second instance, prompt user to terminate previous instance using FUSBadApplicationType1. - Still Graphics corruption on alt-tab despite above-mentioned fix Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - ported from Win2kഀ - This application needs the sun java download site added to trusted sites to work. - ported from Win2k - App copies license string from nvguid.uid file expecting null termination. The null termination existed by accident in previous OS's. Corrected with stackswap, null fill. - Unable to install the application. Fixed using Win98Versionlie and CorrectFilePaths. - The main executable of the application needs 8 bit color display mode. Fixed using Force8Bitcolor shim. - Main executable had privileged instructions which were bypassed with an in-memory patch - Install program for the Commandos Demo fails. "Program only runs under win95" Fixed with win95versionlie.dll - App fails to Launch with current Tomb Raider 3 patch. Replacing with newer shim 'IgnoreException'. - Main executable had privileged instructions which were bypassed with an in-memory patch - The Call to Setting/Releasing Exclusive mode through SetCoopertiveLevel( ), in Full Screen mode is controlled by a mutex in NT. Since mutexes are thread specific, we run into problems when an app. wants to relinquish exclusive mode by calling SetCooperativeLevel( ) in another thread. - We fix this by sending a message to the thread which caused the exclusive mode to be set to release the exclusive mode. - Removed the memory patch by robkenny and replaced it with IgnoreExceptions - To limit the number of Display modes that the app enumerates, we use the HideDisplayModes - Added ForceTemporaryModeChange to clean up left over mode switches - Use new shim to arbitrate exclusive mode - DirectX setup version bug. Fixed with the ForceDxSetupSuccess.dll - Level editor displays ISDX_ERR_BADWINDOWSVERSION error dialog upon installation. Win2000VersionLie fixes this. - Privileged instructions fixed by IgnoreException - Excessive display mode list fixed by HideDisplayModes - App needs virtual registry to correctly store initialization keys - Rainbow Six uses the win version on startup, it also expects to be able to create registry keys. The sound has to be stopped during mission loads off of CD Rom. - Got rid of the Win95VersionLie shim which seems to be causing the multiplayer not functional. - Applied IgnoreAltTab because the app doesn't handle Alt-Tab correctly (it's crashing in the app itself and repros on win98). - Uninstall error - Invalid Operating System, Fixed with Win95VersionLie - Added include/exclude to previous entry - The Autorun was AV'ing in RegSetValueExA passing NULL to the lpData parameter and cbData was 1. This is FIXED by the VirtualRegistry SHIM. - DX Setup error during setup. Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess. - App needs VirtualRegistry shim on EXE as well. - App needs virtual registry to correctly store initialization keys - Rainbow Six uses the win version on startup, it also expects to be able to create registry keys. The sound has to be stopped during mission loads off of CD Rom. - Applied IgnoreAltTab because the app doesn't handle Alt-Tab correctly (it's crashing in the app itself and repros on win98). - The app passes in a NULL pointer to RegSetValueEx. On Win9x, this returns an error but on NT it causes an access violation. - Fixed more bugs - Latest patch allows program to work fine on NT, AppHelped it. - Readme not displayed at end of setup. Use CFP to redirect. - Although we contacted Red Storm and they said that they fixed all their Win2000 issues with the latest patch, they were mistaken. Since we know how to fix their issues (even without their patch) the fixes to RogueSpear.exe were added back in. - If you install install compact (most file read from CD) and the machine does not have much memory and the machine is not single proc, then you may hit a CD swap in error. SingleProcAffinity fix that. - DX setup error during install Fixed with ForceDXSetupSuccess - The Autorun was AV'ing in RegSetValueExA passing NULL to the lpData parameter and cbData was 1. This is FIXED by the VirtualRegistry SHIM. - Application won't start because WinG32.DLL was not installed in %windir%\system32 folder. This fixed by SyncSystemAndSystem32.DLL. - Audio mapped to incorrect audio device when USB is present Fixed with WaveOutUsePreferredDevice - 16 bit shim purging. Removed XML entries for 16 bit applications. Syncsystemandsystem32 was applied to a 16bit setup program to copy binaries from system directory to system32. When the WinG32.dll is loaded, it checks its install path. If it finds that it is not installed in system32, it posts a messagebox and fails. WinG32SysToSys32 fixes this problem by altering the path string. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (SyncSystemAndSystem32 replaced with WinG32SysToSys32 applied to Tonka.exe) - Animates palette entries that have the same color values in the both the normal and animated palette sections. - Fixed with a custom shim that prevents this from happening. - Using PickyEater shim to fix AV. App does not handle WM_PALETTECHANGED message with a NULL hwnd. - App uses privileged instructions to communicate with the special joystick that comes with it - IgnoreException allows the game to be played, even although the joystick doesn't work - App gives device id out of range, fixed by CorrectSoundDeviceId.dll - Also doesn't handle Broadcast post messages handled by PostBroadcastMessage - Added IgnoreSysColChanges - Included ddraw.dll in the RemoveBroadCastPostMessage message to make it work again - Shell32!FindExecutable does not work correctly for WORDPAD.EXE, apply virtual registry to correct the value for wordpad. - Application was calling DDE's DeleteGroup on a directory that it has inuse because of calling FindFirstFile without calling FindClose. EmulateFindHandles corrects this situation. - AltTab hangs app Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Not all users getting shortcuts. Fixed with correctfilepaths - App faults after screen saver timeout, fixed by disabling screen-saver on startup and re-enabling (to prior state) on termination. - Application crashes on ALT TAB. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab. - Couple of games which come in this pack were opening a 32 bit help file with winhelp. This is fixed with the WOWCFEX_USEWINHELP32 wow compat flag. This app will search for help file in wrong directory. This is fixed with WOWCF2_RESETCURDIR. App will now use winhlp32 to display the help file. - The container app "Games.exe" launches around 50+ different apps and all of them need EmulateHeap to fix the memory problems. Adding the Win98 layer intead of giving 50+ different entries. - 16 bit application - When starting, the application requests 256 color mode. This is fixed with the dispmode256 compat flag. -This app is incompatible on whistler. -Toshiba request us to apphelp this application. - Incompatible utility. Found only in OEM pre-loads. -This is TOSHIBA (OEM) request to appshelp this application. -Application (Uitlity) will not be launched after installation. -There is no unique file to identify this app so I use size and checksum. - When launch this application, error message pops up, then cannot use this app correctly. - Toshiba requests to appshelp this app. - TOSHIBA Preinstalled Machine needs Setup Instruction Guide before Upgrade. - TOSHIBA requests us to pop up a message to notify to use this guide before upgrade. - The file I raise is TOSHIBA ACPI related file and it is used on TOSHIBA preinstalled machine. - Need to add it to "SHOWINSIMPLIFIEDVIEW" section to show this entry on upgrade report by default. - Toshiba Preinstall Machine entry is not suitable to be listed on Upgrade Report by default. So need to back to Original entry. Now remove [SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES"] - Incompatible application, found on Win9x OEM pre-loads. Migration entry added. - Added UPTO version 3 -This is TOSHIBA (OEM) request to appshelp this application. -This application cannot be operated by keyboard on WindowsXP. Need appshelp for this app. -There is no unique file to identify this app so I use size and checksum. - System color corruption fixed with IgnoreSysColChanges - Application does not create shortcuts for all users. Fixed with CorrectFilePaths Shim. - Game does not recognize DX Fixed with Win98VersionLie - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - App was installing shortcuts in current user. This is by design in DOSWOW. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (CorrectFilePaths removed. By Design) - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims applied to 16 bit executables - App was installing shortcuts in current user. This is by design in DOSWOW. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (CorrectFilePaths removed. By Design) - App fails in call to RegQueryValueExA during launch of Video/Controller configuration screen at launch - Modified matching criteria to catch download demo version of game. - The installation required PropagateProcessHistory on the setup which launched the install. - The installation would produce a warning stating the application might now work properly under this OS. - Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - Pallette corruption on alt-tab. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - Unable to find printer, EmulatePrinter fixes this problem. Also passed in an uninitialized DEVMODE structure to ResetDCA. - Required EmulateMissingExe to correct winhelp problem. - App won't run unless it's in 256 color mode. - Use WOWCFEX_DISPMODE256 NTVDM flag to force 256 colors - The App uses WinDirect which tries to talk directly to the display hardware using selectors. - This app must launch on Win9x. Win95 layer helps it. - Display mode not restored on exit fixed by EmulateUSER - Random crashes fixed by EmulateHeap - To get the proper matching criteria PropagateProcessHistory is needed on FINALDLG.EXE which is the autorun executable. Due to the fact that installation can be started through the autorun as well as by running setup.exe from the root directory it is necessary to have two entries for _INS576._MP. - During installation you would get a warning message stating that the application may not function properly under NT. Also at the end of install the online registration would not be displayed. Both of these are taken care of with Win95VersionLie. - Also during installation the application tries to install DirectX 5.0 and produces an error. - When trying to run the online registration you would receive an error stating an .ini file could not be found. This is the same problem that Millie and Bailey Preschool has. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - The app needs 640x480 resolution and 256 colours. It comes up with a message for this. This is overcome with Force640x480x8 SHIM - During play, the app searches for midimdl.cfg in the 'SYSTEM' directory when it is actually present in 'SYSTEM32' directory or is not present at all. Added an app specific SHIM which hooks _lopen and fakes the return value when the file is "midimap.cfg" - This application is just for Windows 9x. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with CorrectFilePaths - Redirect msvcrt.dll to the one from system32 Redirects loader to MSVCRT.DLL from System32. - App won't install due to windows version checking. -Applicaton does not install. Fixed with the IgnoreException -Applicaton does not detect free space over 2Gb. Fixed with the EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace - EmulateCDFS required to make movies work and game not crash - Pallette corruption after alt-tab. Fixed with IgnoreAltTab.dll - Error on launch when free space > 2gb Fixed with EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace.dll - The hardware detection DLL has two code paths (WinNT and Win9x), and both fail. The Win9x one is easier to fix, so we apply a version lie. - The hardware detection relies on illegal OUT calls. We ignore them, and the result is a failure to detect any 3d hardware, which installs the app in software rendering mode. The user can easily change this in the options screen. - Black screen appears when using alt-tab to task switch in and out of the app under Win2k. Under Win98 alt-tab is disabled. - Used to require EmulateVerQueryValue.dll, but this has been fixed in the API - Checks the minor version of the DDRAW.DLL file without allowing for newer major versions (fixed by FileVersionInfoLie.dll) - Ignore special keyboard inputs which switch out of the current screen. - EmulateVerQueryValue.dll added back in since Win2k needs it even though Whistler doesn't. - Changed to use FileVersionInfoLie instead of FileVersionInfoLie. - LazyReleaseDC is needed to correct a problem where the app releases a DC then uses it to do a GetDeviceCaps to get the color mode.

If the newer VM isnot already installed the user will recieve error messages during the VJ install and several aspects of the Dev Environment will be broken. - Added entries to catch VJ ++ 6.0 during migration from NT and Win9x to WinXP. The NT entry will flag the application if installed. The Win9x entry will catch the application if msjava.dll is installed and has a BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION less than or equal to 5.00.3200. - Added entry to catch JPN VJ++ 6.0 during migration from NT to WinXP. - Changed the existing PRODUCT_NAME present in Win9x migration entry to catch JPN VJ++ 6.0. - Added separated entries for IA64. - Merged the X86 and the IA64 entries using the newly added %system32% variable. - Added Italian and German WinNT upgrade scenarios. - Removed VALUE_NAME and VALUE matching info for localized versions in WINNT_UPGRADE section since they contain unicode characters which do not work in ansi ntcompat.inf - Added migration message for Spanish version which was missing originally - The Messagebox popped by DetectIIS.exe during the Back Office Server Components setup with Post Acceptor tool selected, doesn't appear on the desktop. - Fixed by adding MB_SETFOREGROUND to the MessageBox call - App needs updated VB bits from MS web site. - Setup.exe needs EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace. - Fix apps broken by ISAPI lockdown - Added additional matching info so that apphelp will catch on JPN versions of the OS - Tweaked matching info to catch all language versions - Tightened matching info.

It used to be able to do this on Win2k, because write access to directories off the root was permitted. - Fixed with a custom shim that relaxes the requested permissions. This restricts some of the applications features, but allows it to work acceptably. - The app recently exposed a heap corruption in mydll.dll's IsAdmin, fixed this by providing a new IsAdmin copied/pasted from PSDK, Adding 2 entry for _INS0432._MP, 1st one is for VJE-Delta 2.5's setup, while the 2nd one is for 4.0's - App uses REALTIME thread priorities and starves the rest of Windows for cycles.

This is because the progress common controls are not initialized properly. - Fixed with the Win2000VersionLie and Win2kPropagateLayer shims - If the user has a compatibility package on Windows 2000 that has more fixes than what we shipped with WinXP Gold, then we must warn him/her to download the very latest XP package so that their shimmed programs don't suddenly stop working. - shim explorer.exe for Win2k shim layer - ported from Win2k. The matching attributes are loose for winhlp32.exe but for this particular case they need to be. - Uses Start.exe which doesn't exist in NT, changed to promote the 1st parameter and the rest of the parameters in parameter list. - Removed EmulateMissingEXE, too intrusive - The Adaptec CD-R driver that ships with Windows Media Player 7 will cause Whistler to blue screen during hibernation/standby. Since WMP 7 ships with Whistler, there is no reason to install it so we'll hard-block it. - Phantom CD 7 Keisoku (Japanese) version generates a command line syntax error when launching the Windows Media Player 7 Encoder setup when logged in with a DBCS user name - Fixed with ShFolder - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - This apphelp did not work for FE NT4, then remove PRODUCT_NAME from matching info for EXE and add new MI NTDLL.DLL for secure. - Shim ntvdm.exe for Win2k shim layer - Update.exe will hang at the end of SP1 Update due to Cicero. - For Tablet PC it should be blocked re-update. - App would not run after install.

After migration the application cannot configure the modem. Reinstalling the application correctly setups up the modem. - Removed EXE-link, previous OS behavior reverted. - Some modem driver names have changed from WinNT/Win2k to WinXP. This causes the default modem to be missing after a migration. Appshelping to suggest reinstall to avoid driver name disabling the software. - This application has two versions, one for Win9x and another for NT. The Win9x version needs to be flagged during upgrade to Whistler for reinstall.

But Ntdll code has different opcodes in Whistler. The program failed to find the opcode signature and decided to cancel WriteProcessMemory call to write their redirection. Because of this, the necessary decompression of program code and resources were not executed and caused access violation. Shrinker shim fixes this by providing necessary opcode signature so the app could write those redirection into ntdll. - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - The application would produce an error stating that it can not be installed on this version of Windows. Win95VersionLie takes care of the problem. - the app will not launch.

WinNT4SP5VersionLie takes care of the problem. - This version of Winsock 2 is meant for Win9x platforms. AppHelp it. - Added Winsock install entry for Dukes of Hazzard - If Winstone is running, disable user-tracking balloon tips, since the balloon tips stay up during the unattended run, and interfere with Winstone's counting of application windows, and leads to undesirable results. So disable user-tracked balloon tips when Winstone99 is running, and enable them once Winstone99 is finished running. - Game exits to desktop when "No" is selected when either hitting Esc to exit current race or race ends - Used HeapDelayLocalFree, HeapIgnoreMoveable, and HeapLookasideFree shims to fix - Shim setup.exe to NT4 layer - There are no drivers for Hauppauge Win TV PVR PCI; so warn the user - Removed Shrinker shim due to global fix in NTDLL. - The uninstallation of Winway.fon file was causing problems holding up the uninstallation.

Reinstalling the driver after migration fixes the problem. The application will be flagged as reinstall in the upgrade report. When themes are applied uxtheme applies a window region to captioned windows. This causes WM_NCCALCSIZE to be sent. The WndClass "WCS.DrawingWin" handles this message altering the rects in the lParam. This causes an additional WM_SIZE message to be sent which the app is unprepared for.

VirtualRegistry expands the string before being sent to CreateProcess(). - Changes to VirtualRegistry were made and the case that was being handled was dropped. HandleRegExandSzRegistryKeys now takes care of the readme file problem. - This app does not function properly under Whistler, when migrated from Win9x. This entry adds it to the list of apps that are suggested to be removed (uninstalled) when migrating from Win9x to Whistler. If the app is not removed before upgrading the user will recieve a message stating that the app will not launch until the application has been reinstalled. - The application has its own version checking on install so an appshelp message is not needed. - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - During installation a message is displayed stating the application does not work under NT.

Fixes have been commented out. - App tries to find the DirectX version badly - Fixed with CorrectFilePaths and FileVersionInfoLie - Bad parameters passed to SetWindowsHook - Fixed by using win9x behaviour - Modified to clean up correctfilepaths which no longer needed a command line. - Simply hides the task bar window - Adjusted matching information - During installation start menu links are placed in a location available to all profiles. Runnig the setup exectuable under the ProfilesSetup layer takes care of the problem. - Adjusted matching information - 16 bit shim purging. Removed shims from 16 bit executables - YDKJ was shimmed to move shortcuts into the all users folder on the startmenu. Closing the issue as by design, shortcuts will be installed to current user. - 16 bit executables removed: setup.exe (Profilessetup removed) - Install program changes the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\Path registry key from a REG_EXPAND_SZ to REG_SZ key. - Apphelp to notify users that this will not be supported on Windows Server 2003 - bookmarks not added to IE favorites Fixed with correctfilepaths.dll - After migration, uninstallation doesn't remove shortcuts in Start menu and desktop. ProfilesSetup fixes this. - After a migration from Win9x to WinXP the Systray icon is lost. The app will be flagged for reinstall in the upgrade report as Reinstall. - Icons not installed for all users. Fixing with ProfilesSetup layer. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - Converted Migdb.inx entry to XML to ease application lookup. - Added vendor name and bug number from Windows 2000 - App crashes when run on multiple sessions with FUS. - Shortcuts not copied to all users Fixed with ProfilesSetup layer - Converted Migdb.inx entry to XML to ease application lookup. - This application is incompatible with Whistler, upon launching or uninstalling the application the user may experience a blue screen. This entry adds it to the list of apps that must be removed before migrating from Win9x to Whistler. - The installer is a single executable which extracts temporary files that are not viable for use as matching information. This entry also hardblocks the user from launching the application under Whistler. - Added matching information for ZoneAlarm Pro - Removed the application from the BLOCKINGFILES section for the Win9x migration report and changed the message to show that we are blocking the driver. Also changed the HARDBLOCK apphelps to SOFTBLOCKs. - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - Driver block was removed from driver.xml per vendor's request. WINNT_UPGRADE entry was moved here to keep all entries together. - Revised matching information to include 2.6.0.214 and below for all scenarios. Latest version (2.6.0.231) works fine. - Zone Labs does not like the link stub. So we have a "Reinstall" AppHelp that uses the following logic: "If the NT driver is not in System32, assume that the user has just done an upgrade from 9x and warn that they have to reinstall." - Changed the message pointed to for the APPHELP from PatchAVailable to ZoneAlarm per vendor's request. - The app does not work as expected upto v7.05. - Ai Squared released v7.06 to run on Whistler. - v7.06 needs to be reinstalled after migration from NT/W2K/Win9x - Added SHOW_IN_SIMPLIFIED_VIEW="YES" to Win9x Migration entry - After two users log on and launch this app using Fast User Switching, when the first user returns, the app blue screens. Forcing the app to restart when user returns fixes the problem: FUS Type 3. - HW acceleration must be on for this app version 7.06 to work. - HW acceleration must be on for this app to work. - Needs to run under Win95 - Installation was creating start menu\programs\d_winnt_desktop, create Start Menu\Programs\Zork - The app is checking for ddraw.dll and dsound.dll in system directory. But - in XP, the files will be under system32 directory. As the app is failing to - find the files, it is trying to install DX-3 drivers and is failing. So, can not auto launch the app. - CorrectFilePaths shim solves the problem. - The app's setup checks IE version by query registry value in HKLM\software\microsoft\internet explorer\version, It needs an IE 4's version - Fixing this by using IE401 version lie in VirtualRegistry. - EXE NAME="data1.hdr" is actually to shim IKERNEL.EXE. data1.hdr is the unique file used for matching by the InstallShield6 shim - The app installs its own wmpui.dll (which is believed from Windows - Media Play's 6.0) and then register it during installation and un-register - it during un-installation. This makes WMP AV since this old DLL got loaded - (through CoCreateInstance) the fix is to make the app not bother to register - un-register during the installation process. - This is app specific shim, and actually shims IKERNEL.EXE. data1.hdr is the - unique file used for matching by the InstallShield6 shim. the first entry is - for installation and second one is for un-installation - At the end of setup, the app is calling CreateProcessA with following "rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 \Z:\act\DongFangKuaiChe3000Pro\dfkc3000\MultiLanguage\Chinese\cn.inf" there are altogether 4 calls to install Japanese/Chinese/Korean languagepack (legacy IE's langpack). The '\' before Z:\act\DongFang... is an extra one and caused rundll32.exe fails in NT. - The fix is to use DongFangKuaiChe3000Setup which disable these rundll32.exe call to install legacy IE language pack, since NT has already its own - Setup must run on Win9x. Lie it. - Main EXE needs Win9x. Lie it. - Main EXE needs 256 colors display mode. Force8BitColors helps it. - App needs Win9x to run. Win98VersionLie was needed. - This entry affects to JPN/CHT versions of this app. - Autorun, Setup needs Win95VersionLie. - IgnoreLoadLibrary is needed due to SMapLS issue - use VirtualRegistry to trim the leading '\' in subkey name. - This entry is for CHT version of this app. - This app needs 256colors mode to run. - The app has an executable bplayer.exe to launch its virtual CD driver, The - problem is that bplayer.exe is put in start-group and will be launched by - explorer.exe, at the time the virtual CD driver is launched, explorer.exe - has already finished initialization and cached all local drive info. Fixing - this by broadcasting a WM_DEVICECHANGE message . - This game software relies on WM_DEVICECHANGE to know whether a new CD is inserted. - the app first use mciSendCommand trying to play audio, if the CD is not there, - on NT , the app assume the exclusive control on the CDROM, and there will be no - WM_DEVICECHANGE sent to app, fix this by using application specific shim - NewShenDiaoXiaLv - This game software installation program is trying to create a window with NULL - WndProc, and later it seems does not really use it, and just launch the - installshield setup program and exit. Fix this by providing default WndProc - use CorrectFilePaths to fix the shortcut to programs. Nonclient theming: This is related to the app's repeated calls to SetClassLong(hwnd, GCL_HICON) in order to produce the effect of an animated window icon. This generates frequent requests to redraw the window's icon, which in turn generates the NCUAHDRAWCAPTION. This is a huge perf hit to the app during movie playback on any platfrom, but particularly on XP, where the SetClassLong call makes an extra round trip from kernel mode to user mode and back as a result of a new SendMessage to support nonclient theming. When the user hits the Close button, the app's WM_SYSCOMMAND handler resets an event that is waited on by the icon-transitioning thread, and then puts himself (the UI thread) to sleep. Then a call to SetClassLong(..., GCL_ICON) comes from the icon-switching thread, which hangs the app because the message-pumping thread is sleeping. This does not repro when win32k doesn't send the NCUAHDRAWCAPTION notification; i.e., when user API hooks are not active. DisableThemes does not work because this shim operates in user mode on a per-process basis. DisableThemes has no effect on win32k, which does special processing on a session-wide basis when themes are enabled. To address this for XP, we're shimming this app to nop on SetClassLong(..., GCL_HICON), which means movie window may at best lose animation of the icon and at worst other windows may display an incorrect icon. - This app causes application errors in SYSEXPLR.EXE and STHSVCD.EXE after upgrade. This entry prompts the user to uninstall the application and asks to install again after the upgrade is complete.
