* More memory used so none remains empty and wasted

* Slower UI to give you time to relax between clicks

:rofl:

Totally true.

I wonder what kind of crapware is included as well.

i was using the pre relese version from quite some time on Vista RTM, looks like it's made for it, really a good update from Adobe. The download size is indeed big, 20 MB, but it's worth it. U can always remove the plugins if u don't need it

(Y) applies to other software as well, great innovations in our technology!

HAHA! i love you people that complain about things being like 20MB plus! OH NOES!! loltruck, get a good internet connection and stop complaining!

Also.. more RAM wouldnt go a miss! with vista coming out soon everyone should be considering 2GB min!

I've been having troubles with Adobe's installer on Vista RC2. The files that are extracted are deleted from the temp folder as soon as the installation trys to run. I had to grab the extracted install files from the temp folder before it's gone and install it that way. Anyone else have the same problem?

I think it's the fact that you are downloading 20MB for something that can also be done(basically) with a 2MB download that ****es people off.

    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
