Today we're checking out the Windows Vista Extended Kernel - a project that enables the operating system to run some incompatible applications. With it, you can install newer versions of Firefox, Chrome, OBS, LibreOffice, and more!

Thank you for covering the Windows Vista Extended Kernel. Thanks to the project, I no longer see proprietary software as a monolithic black box that the user shall never question or modify. I have learned many things working on this project. The user mode seems to have hit a dead-end (outside of a few simple functions and bugfixes to be done); most further improvements will have to be in kernel mode to allow the use of many Windows 10 applications, as well as Vulkan and NVENC with Vista-compatible GPU drivers (they actually need DirectX kernel functions introduced in Windows 7, though NVIDIA does not mention the resulting reduced functionality for Vista users). Those will take some time when combined with other commitments. Nothing else runs better on my HP Z600 and I also have Windows 2000 Professional, Server 2012 and Debian Linux with CDE running there. I also tried several flavours of 10/11 and was thoroughly annoyed with them.

Funnily enough, I’ve felt they haven’t been truly cohesive since 9x. (But even that had some 3.x holdover elements. MS can’t shake their technical debt!) XP and Vista both didn’t rock the boat too much, so most of the 9x elements like scroll bars and progress bars could be replaced in-situ, but for me that always just served to highlight how little had truly changed since the shakeup with 95.

@@MadafakinRio Aero glass was also less glitchy. Something's weird with how they've implemented the rounded corners in Win11, causing some programs to behave a bit erratically, especially when maximizing or going fullscreen (Firefox is really annoying as when making videos fullscreen I now have to do it twice, otherwise it's offset, showing my desktop along the top and left sides of the screen). They also didn't feel the need to completely rewrite the task bar in Vista, so it was still as functional as it had always been (it's bad enough I have to use Start11 for the start menu, but having to use it to get a small taskbar with non-combining windows and full title names I feel is even worse).

Windows 7 was really just a Explorer refresh applied to Vista because it's premier was so bungled by the system requirements changing and the OEM's managing to sabatoge it's rollout with the Vista ready PC program where most of the systems were minimum system requirements for Home Basic and lacked the GPU needed to start Aero and the new Window manager. But OEM's are the reason why Windows Home Server and half of why Windows Media Center failed. They refused to build systems that fit the use case Microsoft was aiming for. Media Center was also killed by the broadcasters killing tuner cards and the death strike was a DirectTV usb receiver getting canceled for Windows media center. Because the networks didn't want people using DVR devices that weren't provided by the cable company.

Using vista today, I realize that the most serious problem was just that computers at the time didn't have enough ram. My 2007ish gaming rig is running vista, 4gb ram, and I have nothing to complain about. In fact, windows 7 is a Vista with a service pack, and looks different for commercial reasons.

The memory requirements for Vista compared to XP were absolutely massive. You could run Windows XP on 512MB fairly well but you'd need 2GB to run Vista without problems. Trouble was that standard PCs were sold at release in 2006/7 with 512MB. Kind of like what's happening with videocards right now ironically enough.

I've used the Extended Kernel for Vista A LOT, it's nice to see you make a video on it! The reason why software for, say Windows 10, didn't work on Vista is because the Extended Kernel installer re-routes Windows Vista system files to Windows 7, and even then, not all of them, which is why Windows 7 functionality is best, although not on par with Windows 7 proper. When I've experimented myself, for example, Direct3d 11 wouldn't work, and neither would Windows Installer 5.0 (for some MSI files), would be nice if Win32 somehow worked out a way to get those working too Also, to the countless people wondering if Steam works: yes! However, the browser doesn't fully work, so you'd need to enable nobrowser, and you'd also need to get the pure extracted files, the installer doesn't always work

This is really cool. Bit of a shame it's a 64-bit thingy only, as that was not taken for granted with OEM installs back then, contrary to, say, Windows 10, whose 32-bit version is a bit of a legacy rarity. I have a couple of Vista machines, but if using Ex Kernel means I have to install a new copy of Vista on them, well, I suppose I might as well install 7 instead, which has the same hardware requirements.

Hi there! As you might know that Windows Vista is also compatible with the updates intended for Windows Server 2008 and I am curious about something. Should we install the external kernel after installing WS2008 updates or before them on Windows Vista?
