Get Back The Old Task Manager On Windows 8.

This also works on Windows 7.

Microsoft has changed the Task Manager on Windows 8. It is a lot different from what it was in Windows 7 and previous versions of Windows. Many people including myself are not very happy with the new Task Manager that is on Windows 8. I have been having problems with it in that it is very slow to start. And often when I have run a program and it freezes or Explorer freezes or crashes, When I try to bring up Task Manager to end it. It takes ages to come up and by the time it does,it's too late and my system or program has crashed. Then I have to restart my program or whatever I am using again.

Windows 98 Welcome Exe On Windows 8.

Outlook 2003 On Windows 8.

I have installed Outlook Mail 2003 on my Windows 8 and it is working very well. In fact this is the best version I have tried as I found with Outlook 2000 although that did work on Windows XP,Windows Vista and Windows 7. It did not work well on Windows 8. Although I could send webmail on Windows 7 this did not work at all on 8.

Microsoft Agent Characters Buttercup,The Genius and Others On Windows 8

Here I show you some interesting Microsoft Agent characters,Buttercup, Becky and The Genius as well as some others running on Deskbot on Windows 8. To install the Genius I just copied the character file from my Microsoft Office 2000 CD into the Microsoft  Agent Chars folder on Windows 8. I have also set Deskbot to run in Program Compatibility Mode for Windows 98/ME to remove the color backgrounds from the characters. See this post here on how to do this.

Microsoft Office 2003 On Windows 8.

I thought I would try Microsoft Office 2003 on Windows 8 seeing that I was able to run MS Office 97 and 2000 on both Windows 8 as well as on Windows Vista,Windows 7 and Windows XP. Office 2003 was made for Windows XP so I hoped it would work on Windows 7 and 8 and it does.
