SignUp Now!TCC 15.00.35 is happy under XP, but Take Command won't start (dependency on InitializeCriticalSectionEx() ).
The procedure entry point InitializeCriticalSectionEx could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.DLL
I've worked around it in build 15.00.36 (already uploaded).
What a horror story!!I had to revert Take Command to Visual Studio 2010, because Microsoft did such a thorough job of breaking XP support in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2. And developers can't uninstall . . .
And can move on to Windows 8 where the only professional support we can count on will come from JPSoftware! Sigh!! ;0Those of you clinging to your creaky, slow, insecure, and buggy XP systems in the hopes that Microsoft will relent on its April 2014 end of life date can give up that faint hope.
I've worked around it in build 15.00.36 (already uploaded).
And developers can't uninstall Update 2 without uninstalling & reinstalling 2012 (a very lengthy process) ....
I installed the "Express" edition, and it was an awe-inspiringly slow process. Watch progress bar for an hour, go to lunch, do the sudoku, come back, see that the progress bar is up to 58%.... My dictionary has for express: 3a. Sent out with or moving at high speed. 3b. Direct, rapid, and usually nonstop: express travel.
Alternately: Install everything we, your rulers, tell you to, whether or not it benefits you. Even if it is for products you never use!Microsoft redefined Express as: 1. Remove most of the features, and 2. Still install reeeeaaaaallllllyyyyyyy sloooooooooooooowww.
