I recently installed the x64 version of Vista to play around with compatibility. Everything is fine so far, WinRAR even works fine. The only issue I have is the shell integration. It is enabled in the options, but won't show up when I right click on a rar file. I reset it and the same thing occurs.

I have heard of an issue or to, but no reall good fixes.

I've been on Vista x64 for close to six months, and I use WinRAR from the right-click menu quite often. I'm pretty sure it worked even when using an old beta version, so I'm thinking you have some application blocking certain system changes, one of them being the shell integration of WinRAR. Maybe try disabling all security programs temporarily and re-install WinRAR. Only thing I can think of right now...

    • Steam overlay's FPS counter gets major upgrade to show CPU and VRAM usage, temps, and more

      I don't think RTSS can show the real framerate. In fact, this is the first time I have ever heard about anything showing it.

      Yeah, Deck's overlay has CPU temps. Maybe they don't want to rely on external dlls to provide CPU temperature graphs on all machines? From my experience with Rivatuner it can be annoying to select the correct CPU temperature sensor.

      Why would I be praising Microsoft? You do realize I'm well aware the Gamebar is a stinking pile of crap and has been for years, right? Or are you one of those "if you don't critique something at every turn you area clearly a fanboy" people? Yes, MangoHUD is built into SteamOS's Big Picture mode, and up until a few weeks ago, SteamOS was exclusive to... the Steam Deck... for 3 years. Yet you were talking about it as if you didn't need to set it up yourself, like it was built into other distributions, which it wasn't. So if we ignore the real/fake framerate feature, it's really not much different than me setting up my Rivatuner/HWInfo overlay, is it? Valve had the option of building MangoHUD into Steam, like they are doing it now, for 3 years. So let's not pretend Windows hasn't had a basic way to display your framerate built in, keeping well aware how crap it actually is. And I'm not even counting your GPU driver company, because Nvidia, AMD and Intel have their own (somehow even worse than GameBar) overlays. And of course they won't tell you fake/real framerate, why would Nvidia nor AMD want to tell you? That is absolutely a +1 on Valve.

      As much as I like the push towards Wayland (is Gnome still bickering about window decorations and "you are doing it wrong"ing rest of the industry?) but as an admin, the fact that the FreeRDP (because VNC is dead) implementation is not functional yet is really annoying, as that is what RHEL10, and Debian13, will be stuck with for the next 3-8 years.
