All the low-hanging fruit (actually figuring out how to compile it, copying files from working retail XP so it works, etc.) - the stuff a bright ten year-old can do - has been done, and therefore it's now beyond the ability of /g/ to improve it further.
Frankly, having been here for years, I'm amazed you faggots got this far without reformatting your hard drives by accident.

So, how stable is the current version? Were there any bug fixes or we're still trying to compile. Have been busy for past month and not sure where everything syands. Is there a todo list?
>>
>>78842041
It's probably about as stable as RTM 2k3 is, some even build from the os they're compiling on, though there were some stability issues with old exinit/systime.c We have a good exinit/systime.c replacement now and replaced precompiled winlogon with one patched from the leaked 2000 sources, and since it has no WPA shit, pidgen.dll was modified to accept any product key. And lastly, some anons are currently trying to get some win10 software working, and have 2 kernel32.dll functions left.

>>
>>78842349
yes thx, I just tried it
I added this basic implementation to _process.c and GetActiveProcessorCount to kernel32.src - Python 3.9 still need something for GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx which should be based off GetLogicalProcessorInformation just returning one processor group then with the bare minimal of info.
```cpp
DWORD GetActiveProcessorCount(
WORD GroupNumber
)
//assume one group of processors :-) - needs to be updated to represent the actual combination maybe... NUMA cores etc
{
SYSTEM_INFO siSysInfo;
GetNativeSystemInfo(&siSysInfo); //switched to GetNativeSystemInfo as it works under Wow64
return siSysInfo.dwNumberOfProcessors;
}

How do I install JDK8 on WIndows XP?

ADVAPI32.DLL seems to be missing (at least) one function that is available in a slightly different form through KERNEL32.DLL as RegDeleteKeyA, would that be in place there is good chance that the installer would run.

So the first beta of SP can be made run on intel CPU by patching the kernel, in KiInitKernel ther eis a check that detect if the cpu vendor is GenuineAMD otherwise it bugcheck. It does so via calling strcmp and it use a jnz op to see if it need to bugcheck. If we patch the kernel and change the opcode to jz than the build only work on intel CPU (I mean also other CPU vendor but afaik found somebody else having silicon for amd64).

Boy it's to difficult in here to search online before asking anything and again why you are doing anything with kernel if you don't know this stuff. This is the problem why software is bad today people do stuff without knowing anything of the hardware and lower stuff.

>>78850298
>>78850308
it looks like "new pad" was intended to support xml and html-specific formats, but is dated 2000, while notepad in the same tree is dated 2001 and lists a couple bugs they had written workarounds for in June of 2001.

I believe "new pad" might have been from the Neptune project and merged into the source tree when Neptune was cancelled.

The full-screen startpage stuff is also from Neptune.
>>
>>78850926
Why do they keep these redundent folders when they only contain unused code? It can't possibly be for compatibility.
>>
>>78850926
That's actually quite interesting, I wonder if its usable when compiled

>>78850760
Yeah, I did the rename thing, very used to that, but really, I'm fucking around, I don't need it right? lol
>>78850926
Very nifty, they can both be built right? I'm doing a new clean build to try and get PE but after I could just run bz from the newpad folder and it'd compile?

>>78850760
Too many missing files, gunna extract and check the XPSP1 src, anyone want to quickly check sizes between opktools folder?
>>
>>78851112
Nahh you don't need need it, but I am the same I like messing with stuff in there!

And yeah building newpad will compile and place it in binaries.x86fre for you
>>
>>78851143
So I had ran that already, and I did rename the binaries folder, but I don't see where it is. Or am I mixing things up?
>>
>>78851250
Idk someone else may have to jump in here, idk if newpad is set up to be binplace ect
>>
>>78851025
Why? Because they test some concepts and not necessarily use them, but they can get back to them in future Windows release as all NT version has common base code. Start page didn't fit into XP, but it came back with Windows 8.
>>
>>78851287
K. Do you happen to know if I could find where it would output? like something in the stuff compiled, or is that waaay to deep?
>>
>>78851505
That just makes it so bloated. I still don't get it. Why didn't they put the scrapped concepts in separate repos instead of in the same Windows source repo.
>>
>>78852300
>Why didn't they put the scrapped concepts in separate repos instead of in the same Windows source repo.
Obfuscating potential source code leaks just like this one could be the possible purpose, but let's just assume Microsoft's incompetence.

So oscdimg just creates folders from folders in binaries.archbuild

You can make ISOs of the msbuild tools, IDW and a few other things like Server Adminolistration components and other stuff..
>>
>>78852576
oscdimg.cmd was made by someone in these threads, the leak didn't include any official scripts for creating the iso

oscdimg.cmd just wraps oscdimg.exe which is already in the sources and is what actually creates the iso

How the checksum of windows system file is calculated and apply during postbuild process? Anyone have some idea?

>>78853385
The pointis that I have patch both ntoskrnl and ntikrnlmp of sp1beta to basically allow me to both the os on an intel CPU by reversing the comparision (code used jnz (0x75) and I replaced with jz (0x74)) . Now if I replace the file on an arelady installed OS it work like a charm . But during setup it fail the integrity check (as the checksum is off course changed).

Basically my fix invert the cose so now the iso will bugcheck on AMD cpu and work on all other vendors

everytime i do a new install of a windows OS I always forget something.

I wish there was a way to just copy paste the drivers. So many drivers come with malware 'software packages' now, the only useful ones are the video drivers cause they have a video capture build in. Everything else is autoupdate crap that never includes a rollback feature for when the driver updates inevitably break your computer.

I have all my open source stuff on an second harddrive, which i will disconnect when I do a new install. I think I also need to download java and find an old copy of adobe acrobat, maybe minecraft, should probably write down all my old passwords in a booklet or something..

am i forgetting anything? When I get back from my vacation I'm going to install a windows server OS, hopefully put all this Win 10 nonsense behind me. I thought about enterprise but its still cancer and I have to pay for it.

I'm not too keen on paying 500 bucks for a server license but i think i can get an old one for like half that, unless anyone knows where I can download a clean iso to burn to disc.

Who cares what you do, you're posting in a thread involving leaked legacy source code where the end game ends in a pirated illegal iso..

We just gunna tell you to stop being a fass and just download a cracked version for freeeeee
>>
>>78853450
I hit the end of the road. I can change the check and the file got installed fine but during the graphical part of the installer, when you have to enter product key ecc, sfc got run. sfc use the file has + signature to detect the integrity. Of course my modified file fails such a check so they got replaced back with original file. So basically when that part of the setup is completed the system reboot forever. At that point you have to copy back the kernel file. It sucks. And we cannot sign the file because we need a private certificate but even our original cert for 2003 would not work as it was expiring on august 2003 and this build is September. (But anyway I think MS would use different cert when publish a build). End of the road.

you did not understand the problem. I can change the checksum of file but with no private key I can't resign the file. Windows check the signature of a file for security using public key * private key and the hash of the file. It's basic cryptography. Changing dates and so change nothing.

>>
>>78861040
That's imbecile as using wine to "backport" win10 crap to an incomplete codebase isn't even SP1 level. Also, x86-64 msvc compilers don't support inline ASM, so your murky hack would only work in x86.

Stop doing stupidities, and/or taking shortcuts. If you gonna do it, implement the functionality properly. You don't have the same excuse as ReactOS devs, as You have the sources to learn how to do it.

If not, then don't do it. NO ONE NEEDS ANOTHER INCOMPLETE REACTOS HACK OUT THERE.

We can use tools\ploc\run\autoploc.cmd to make three kinds of Pseudo-Localization build: PSU, FE and MIR.

1. First, compile an USA binary in strict accordance with the tutorial: https://rentry.co/build-win2k3

2. Set a new razzle shortcut for: %windir%\system32\cmd.exe /k D:\srv03rtm\tools\razzle.cmd free offline postbld_dir D:\plocpost, Start in: D:\srv03rtm

3. Create a new txt file, write:

CodePage=1250
ReleaseDir=D:\Release
UAFilePath=D:\UA

Rename it to srckit.psu.ini and copy file into \tools\postbuildscripts

4. edit tools\ploc\run\autoploc.cmd, Search for

if /i "%LANG%" == "psu" (

You will find three results, locate the third result, replace all the "use pushd-popd to enter the directory" method in the IF structure with cd .

Search for

start "Whistler1 running" cmd /c %PlocPath%\run\scriptwrap.bat %sem1% %PlocPath%\plocwrap.bat %ploclogfile1% %_NTPOSTBLD% %PlocPath% whistler1.bat %CodePage% %LOGFILE%

change both %CodePage% to 1250

Same to start "Whistler2 running" cmd /c %PlocPath%\run\scriptwrap.bat %sem2% %PlocPath%\plocwrap.bat %ploclogfile2% %_NTPOSTBLD% %PlocPath% whistler2.bat %CodePage% %LOGFILE%

After modify choose save.

5. run new created razzle shortcut, run:

tools\ploc\run\autoploc -nocopy -nosync -l:psu -c:1250

Wait until it finished, binaries will inside D:\plocpost.x86fre.
>>
Tutorial above is about PSU(Pseudo) build, if you want to create FE(Far East) or MIR(Mirror) build, you need to create srckit.fe.ini or srckit.mir.ini, change things related to codepage to: 932 for FE, and 1256 for MIR.

Created a symsrv dir using symstore.exe with all the XP/2003 symbols packs I could find, SP1/2/3, RTM, beta/RC etc all included, x86/ia64/amd64.

~40GB uncompressed, around ~3GB 7z compressed
It'd need to be decompressed for you to actually make use of it, but it seems symbol server folders can be compressed with the same thing i386 folders use (compress.exe?), so maybe can be recompressed after extracting with a script or something (if I compressed it like that first it'd likely make the 7z a lot larger)

Not a huge list since they didn't really release symbol packs for betas that often, most of the released beta-chk builds should be covered though.
Sadly it seems symbol packs for SP betas are pretty hard to find, eg. seems there was definitely a pack released for SP2-RC2 as
>WindowsXP.x86.fre.SP2.RC2.symbols.exe
but an hour spent trying to track that down didn't get anywhere. I wouldn't be surprised if it's on archive.org somewhere though.

Seems like MSDN premium was part of shared source initiative, no need to be a govt or anything like that, just pay the fee, sign agreements & use the smartcard they provided, so there's a chance someone on /g/ probably did/does have access to it.

Looks like you only got to browse code in-browser and during debugging though, source packages like the ones in this leak were probably from the govt-only shared source stuff.

Wouldn't be surprised if part of the agreement is that you wouldn't try dumping all the code from the codepremium site, very unlikely anyone that had access to this MSDN stuff actually has a full source tree of it, probably just bits and pieces.

lol wtf, using the source server apparently would run sd.exe on the source server itself. I hope someone found a way to play around with that.
>>
Back in 2015 days, was very common for MSDN premium users have to deal with the "Microsoft Software Assurance Transfer Application", and its backend "sd.exe". Since SD.exe logs in MS servers the files you have access, and the percentaje downloaded of them, tied to your CAC smartcard, if you failed to download anything due internet crashes, and the file get corrupted, you had to call MSDN premium support so they could unlock the file from MS side. Sources using SD never were actually distributed as package, but as individual files, and the Smartcard would register how many files you had access on.

That's why everyone gave up that via to get anything substantial, and they focused in the packages MS distributed to their partners. Them probably came from these source dirs ms had server side, with the trees stored as CAB files, just like Windows Update does... But not everything made outside MS. So far, only XP/2003 and Win7 are known to have made it, along with some Office version (dunno if was 2007 or 2010). Ofc, no compiler package source have ever made outside MS HQs.

Also, most probably these links are done right now.

If somebody is interested in porting Aero Desktop and Win 7 look in Win XP should have a look at https://github.com/lee-soft. Have VB6 code for Win 7 Taskbar with Window Thumbnail preview.
Start Menu can be made like Win 7 using by backporting Open-Shell (written in C++) https://github.com/Open-Shell.
For Forks interested into a tabbed film explorer have a look at Open Source ExplorerXP. https://github.com/avrionov/explorerxp
I found a very good implementation of Aero Blur and Transparency effect. A tool named FastAero developed in 2008 or 2009 was opensourced later on but Its source code is lost too.

and 2 more x86fre symbols from SP ISOs

Pretty sure this is all the symbols I'm gonna find out in the wild for now. Gonna pack them up again and find somewhere to post it now.

Also made a quick bat script that can handle LZX-compressing .pdb -> .pd_, so you can pretty easily recompress them all after extracting (afaik windbg/ida/etc should work with compressed ones fine)

Probably gonna take it a good hour or so to go through 150,000+ PDB files though... once this 7z is packed up I'll give it a try myself and compare the size, if it's not too much bigger maybe I'll just upload the recompressed ones instead.

Bump for ie5src.tar

Bump for FastAero sources

Post win7src1.cab+ pls

>>78879022
Idiot idiot and idiot. This is XP leak thread why you fucking post about win7 little fucking maroon?
>>
>>78867179
Because extended partitions are "partition 0".
Nobody knows this ('cept oldfags like me) because we don't use extended partitions anymore.
>>

2600src*.cab would be nice to get too, the XPSP1 package we got is messed up with SP1 shit that stops us postbuilding properly, still haven't seen anyone manage to get that working

Also seems the 2600src pack had a lot more docs inside which aren't in our packages, sucks they started removing them
>>
>>78880366
How someone could have them? These were cabs never made outside MS, and with codepremium you could "print" only individual only with SD.exe executed remotely, giving it could validate you PKA first.
>>
>>78872428
Cool. I wonder how many files and documents are indexed and just waiting to be found. Though this was a lot easier more than 10 years ago with servers being less secured, I remember one dude in betaarchive finding m$ stuff by trying to connect to all IPs nearby their buildings

Damn, wish we had that supplemental XP source code too, looks like it has VB5/6 code + MSN + maybe SQL server stuff at least, wonder if it ever got out
>>
>>78881152

For source it never have been easy. These are accessed with encapsulated protocols encrypted with a smartcard since 2000s. That's why all the source leaks we have are from MS partners, not from them directly.
>>
>>78881135
>These were cabs never made outside MS
Source? I've seen lots of mentions of MS sharing source packages with vendors/partners, the 2600src*.cab filename pretty much matching up with the leaked 3790src*.cab makes it seem even more like something that was shared out.
I really doubt MS would package the src into .cab files just to be internal-only, I mean they have a source depot right there.

git anon here offering hosting to any openxp related projects
>>
also in terms of like, things that having source for would benefit us a lot: complus is just entirely missing from com/ and that's a huge component of nt5. we can probably build without it but that'll break a lot of miscellaneous nice things in the OS.

Would anyone be able to test my script? Specifically the source patcher and if there are any issues

(I still need to add Winlogon fix and update a few buts just waiting for any further updates on prepatched anon with systime and exinit )

>>78881970
I am the only one who does not give a shit about missing pieces? As long as kernel32, user32, gdi32, ntdll, the kernel, and a few other core system files are build-able then I am happy.
>>
>>78882094
a lot of applications depend on COM components(explorer reverts back to windows 2k without them), they were microsoft's preferred way of IPC for a long time. and the system doesn't even boot without uniscribe afaik
>>
>>78882094
It already works on modern hardware too (except maybe UEFI)
>>
>>78881227
>I really doubt MS would package the src into .cab files just to be internal-only, I mean they have a source depot right there.
These packs are frozen snapshots of the main tree and subtrees at a given time. They store them in CABs for easy accesibility by SD.exe daemon and management (individual files don't get missing/fragmentede). Snapshot CAB packing is the same trick used in older Windows Update server system, and it have been replaced with WIMs in newer windows updated versions. Ofc, as you say, they have source depot, but live sessions gives you the latest sources only, and archived sessions used CAB backstores, and now it uses WIM backstores.
>>
>>78882175
What I meant was I am quite happy with using compiled binaries for any component that does not need altering.
>>
>>78882357
It will not work as intented, as windows is a great piramid with components depending on components, unless you want only PE reduced functionality boot images.
>>
>>78882327
Ofc you could request some of these packages, proving you were a government or some really big partner. As have been said since day1 here, so far we know only 2003/XP and Win7 rtm made outside of MS in such way, with russian and chinese government having access to them mainly (and most probably this leak came from a slavic government agency in first place).
>>
>>78882492
Also win7? Are we sure of that?
>>
>>78882492
So far no other MS VIP partner have bothered to get their hands in the sources... Windows codebase is so complex they prefer send their people to Redmond campus to work closely with Windows team instead. That's at least the case of Nvidia, Intel and AMD.
>>
>>78882510
Yes, but was only the RTM snapshot. The information is public in archived news sites.
>>
>>78882544
what you mean? It was still the entire source tree? Have you got link to the articles?
>>
>>78882528
That make sense, but I guess company like intel/amd do also some locally work. Maybe they have part of the tree
>>
>>78882624
So far interviewed people says they only have, and need, private headers and libraries for certain components, but they tend to just use WDK every time they can to minimize dependency on MS favors.

Internal shared work between MS and partners at Redmond is just to implement in Windows certain functionalities the partner request, like for example, some new DirectX functionality in AMD/nVidia case, or Kernel Instruction implementations, in Intel/AMD case.
>>
>>78882603
Yes, is still the "full" source tree, in the level of this leak at least (only some code MS doesn't have, or licensing stuff, is excluded).
>>
>>78882761
So the next leak have to be that ahah
>>
>>78882730
Yeah because I read on C++ bug report blog that AMD/intel do the floating point part of the CRT so I guess they have source for that part. I don't think they go there just for this little thing
>>
>>78882825
They have people camping there "permanently" (aka, some veteran engineers go and newcomer engineers come). So small fixes supposedly are at one matrix call of distance.
>>
>>78882919
And at this time with the pandemic and all, they can request Redmond to have remote drones with azure videoconference integrated. No local source really required, or in words of these partners, even desired.
>>
>>78882919
I see still it's amazing that in 20H02 they broke the floating part of the CRT so some software is crashing. This broke a lot of python dreamers.
>>
>>78840611 (OP)
Just downloaded the code, god its so fucking huge. Might be useful to split this thing into a number of pieces, because its a totally unmanageable size.
>>
>>78883215
Don't even go there.. trust me it will cause a massive debate
>>
>>78883215
Someone was looking into splitting it into git submodules a few days ago, dunno if they made much progress
>>
Useful offline reference for WinAPI/Win32
>Microsoft's Old API Help File Reborn

>With each new version of Windows, Microsoft adds to the API but maintains backward compatibility by never subtracting. All of the information in Win32.hlp is still valid today. In fact, if the same topic as one in Win32.hlp is called up in the latest MSDN documentation it is usually word-for-word the same.

Ahhhh you guys have made so much progress.
I've been stuck with my day job for the last month and I haven't had a chance to work on things.
Does anyone have some catch up items?

I love you all.

Bump.
