Wish you tried a nightly build, the release build is missing three years worth of updates. Unfortunately our release manager refuses to promote the nightly builds and also refuses to branch a new release so we're kinda stuck :(

"Acknowledge that this is an alpha"
reactOS will never exit out of the alpha stage.

i love michael just completely ignoring the "WARNING INSTALLING A CUSTOM DEVICE MAY FREEZE YOUR COMPUTER OR RENDER IT UNBOOTABLE" lmao

Snappy reporting "Windows XP 64 (32-bit)" is a result of ReactOS presenting itself as a version of Windows that never existed. See the banner on the desktop, reporting NT 5.2. Microsoft's 32-bit NT 5.2 only existed as Windows Server 2003; 64-bit NT 5.2 came in both Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Professional x64 varieties. By selecting "Workstation" in ReactOS's setup, it sets the ProductType in the registry to WinNT (as opposed to ServerNT), and because ReactOS is targeting NT 5.2, that combination results in a SKU type that never existed in Windows itself.
Snappy is probably seeing NT 5.2 and ProductType=WinNT, the only valid combination from Microsoft existed with Windows XP x64. But then, being a 32-bit operating system, it makes a non-sense sounding term appear in the installer.

"but Everything Goes Wrong..."
Of course, it wouldn't be a Michael MJD video otherwise, that's why we are here

If this is a build from 2021, you should also consider making a video on the latest 2024 nightly and see if there are any improvements.

Good Video but there are three things that are infinte
- The Universe
- The react os dev cycle
- The WinRAR test version

an everything going wrong video about reactOS? well now this is just getting far too easy

ReactOS would be a brilliant alternative to trying to find and install old versions of Windows on older systems, however even now nearly 30 YEARS after development began, it is just not in a state where it can be considered an alternative to those old versions of Windows.
96 |
I remember testing Reactos in the middle of 2006. It's amazing how everything, apart from the look, remains exactly the same as I remembered it. Kudos to the developers for still spending so much time on a system that is clearly far from usable.

Hopefully you make a follow up video using the latest Nightly Build, it is infinitely more stable then the 2021 release
35 |
Nothing gives me a heart attack more than the "Safe Mode" failing into a blue screen. Cool OS. lol
49 |
please do a video on the newest nightly build PLEASE I want to see what this looks like with 3 years of updates
40 |
lol ReactOS has given me tons of issues in the past trying to get running on older hardware. Great video!

ReactOS is so cool in concept and I have empathy for the devs that they're essentially trying to remake Windows from clean-room reverse engineering but DAMN did they bite off more than they can chew

Hello from ReactOS team!
Thank you for the very nice and thorough video! Your efforts are truly appreciated! However, could we kindly suggest a tweak to the title? It might unintentionally mislead viewers, especially those new to the project. While it may seem like you're testing the operating system in 2024, it's clear that 0.4.14 isn't cutting-edge for that year. In actuality, you're testing the system based on its 2020 codebase. Since then, the project has made significant strides in stability and compatibility.
ReactOS version 0.4.15 is on the horizon with a massive list of changes, and it will be set to release relatively soon. Anyone eager to explore its improvements can check out the nightly builds.
36 |
It would genuinely be cool to see a project like ReactOS take off one day, what with all the problems modern Windows has and the fact that Linux is not exactly a drop-in replacement. Sadly it probably won't ever happen. Oh well. We can dream I guess.
90 |
One thing I love about ReactOS is the people behind it do watch videos like these and give feedback. I made a video about ReactOS once and they gave some feedback.
15 |
So we got a Michael, and he's attempting to install a jank not-Windows OS.

Just wanted to quickly reiterate that the selection of the latest “stable” build (that yes, is from 2021) for this video was intentional. Yes, there are more recent nightly builds of ReactOS - but I wanted to use the most recent “stable” release, as it’s the one most prominently featured on the ReactOS website, and is what most people are going to end up downloading should they choose to test this out. Nightly builds are even more experimental, and as stated on the site “you're more likely to encounter regressions at the cost of new features.” Because of that, I thought they were better saved for a future video should people be interested. And if you’d like to see that, let me know!
