Maybe but with different GUID because of our different executable signatures.

Another cool way to destroy the Host OS is extracting HDD from the PC, picking a Hammer, and hammering hard the plates. Having a Virtualizer installed won't save the user for these damages neither. :))))) Yes. Too stupid. Same if someone tries to mount the host HD as a VM HD. Maybe one of the most ...

If you use QEMU, you can format your physical disk if you mount the host HD as VM HD.

The guest OS is deliberately sandboxed to prevent that from happening. Reviewers actually test the effectiveness of antivirus software by infecting virtual machines with viruses. False. Most virtualizers directly translate your code into kernel or user mode, before encountering antivirus libraries,...

Sadly ReactOS can't include Gtk# apps, neither .Net,Python,Qt,other frameworks in its building process. Just C and C++ apps can be compiled with our current Build Environment. But sure, you can create Gtk# test on ReactOS and discover if they work or if they don't you can fill reports giving us som...

GPL only comes into effect when software is being distributed. It does not impose any restrictions on what you can do with it privately.

I know, but Windows License is in effect under all circumstances, even if you remove it unless you wipe all the results produced via Windows

Whatever thar is under C:\WINDOWS on Windows is under C:\ReactOS on ReactOS.

You may even install "Windows components" as long as you have a valid Microsoft Windows license - and most ReactOS/Wine users do anyway. You may not, because the Windows Licence conflicts with the GPL(Windows component+ReactOS means Composite Work-even in private use), and even for the pr...

I do not know about legality but the installer will refuse because of its Windows verification methods.

Yes, I have the same problem in my USB keyboard in bootCD, in any keypress attempt only NumLock blink and that's over.

Regarding C11, its improvements are for the most part irrelevant to us. To support its newer, higher level functionality, your operating system has to provide a certain level of infrastructure. Since we're writing the OS, that infrastructure isn't there. As such, we wouldn't be able to use the new ...

We require C89 for all C code, so VC++'s lack of support for newer versions of C is irrelevant. Several developers are already using VC++ to do much of their work. The only thing that stopped them in the past was our build configuration system could not correctly support it. With CMake (plus a few ...

After getting a running GUI installer, we should evolve the installer to eliminate the reboot between file copying and configuration stages.

GNU Nano editor might be a replacement for DOS edit, using MinGW ncurses libraries, and vim might be a replacement for edlin, actually vim is more convenient than edlin.
