22:30:50 <tfgbd> Fix y0 shit
22:30:59 <tfgbd> PortableApps Launcher doesn't work on NT 3.51 :(
22:42:49 <Gizmokid2005> tfgbd: it won't either.
22:43:00 <Gizmokid2005> That's no longer supported by Microsoft (and hasn't been for how long now?)
22:43:26 <tfgbd> Why do you care about "support", though
22:43:33 <tfgbd> It's open source. That's half the point ;P
22:43:41 <Gizmokid2005> Exactly. So fix it yourself?
22:43:47 <tfgbd> I may indeed :)
22:43:55 <Gizmokid2005> A lot of the features the platform relies on now aren't available in operating systems that old
22:44:08 <Gizmokid2005> and since they're not officially supported, there's no effort being put in to make sure they still work.
22:44:36 <Gizmokid2005> Support isn't being intentionally removed, but the opposite is true (we're not working to officially support it).
22:44:52 <tfgbd> Yeah, I know. I was mostly kidding. I'm used to this sort of thing with Windows CE.
22:45:23 <Gizmokid2005> I figured you would be.
22:45:40 <tfgbd> Often the default compiler settings or SDK used makes something now run on an older kernel so often software doesn't run on "old" stuff due to laziness alone or the author never caring enough how to compile the most comatible .exe
22:45:59 <Gizmokid2005> right, but that's not the case here
22:46:13 <Gizmokid2005> The new features being used just aren't supported on older OS
23:16:25 <tfgbd> So you actively check and prevent it from running?
23:16:56 <Gizmokid2005> I'm not sure what the built-in compiler support/checking does
23:18:22 <tfgbd> Is it even a c/C++ application?
23:18:35 <tfgbd> Isn't it make in some kind of autoit scripting language
23:18:37 <Gizmokid2005> It's Delphi
23:18:42 <tfgbd> Ahh, hmm
23:18:47 <Gizmokid2005> the actual launchers are done in NSIS
