A VxKex fork for Windows Vista?

Open EsaiTheMartian2007 opened this issue 10 months ago • 4 comments

It's been almost 2 years since Windows Vista Extended Kernel by win32ss was last updated

But what if you used a Extended Kernel for Vista without changing the osver.ini file, instead fork VxKex for Windows Vista?

VistxKex?

I know but he had a website about his Vista Extended Kernel and ximonite two but hasn't had its repo here.

I think he looks this ticket, hope that he can publish on GitHub.

yes i am also looking into this too... extended kernel for vista can be a little destructive to security updates and system files so i'd love to see a vxkex fork for vista, the latest installer from here doesn't work because it requires windows 7 APIs.... i would definitely see vxkex for vista being very useful
