Today's episode covers the Windows Vista Ultimate Extras. These were additions to the Windows operating system only made available to Vista Ultimate users. It was somewhat similar to Microsoft Plus, which was discontinued by the time these were released.

onometre I agree. Why won’t Microsoft make Windows a bit more skeuomorphic? It would look plain if they didn’t make it skeuomorphic! Also syncing. Microsoft, we don’t HAVE to sync our stuff using OneDrive. Windows 10 May 2019 update made it a lot worse and took their Microsoft account branding to the next level... or did they? I don’t know but still!

Seems like an issue that hopefully will be fixed soon. I'm seeing new comments come in but still having to approve all of them. So if your comment does not show up immediately, that's why.

That's probably because of the Spambot outbreak that has been happening around KZbin lately. Also, thanks for taking my suggestion. I do want to point out that if you were to actually install the Chinese language pack on Windows Vista that you would get a new Text to Speech Voice called Microsoft Lili, which is a Chinese voice but can also speak English, but the user could still choose Anna as the default voice (which is also the case in Windows 7). Also, I had this problem with the stuttering sound that you had in this video (which used to be a problem in Windows XP virtual machines on Windows 8/10 hosts in older versions of VMWare) which could be fixed by launching Windows Media Player, switching it to Now Playing view and minimizing it. However, unlike XP virtual machines, this workaround doesn't seem to work for Vista virtual machines. Some sort of glitch with either VMWare or Windows from what I can see, as I never had this problem on Windows 7 when I had it as my host operating system.

Windows Vista was a rock-solid operating system, but most PC's didn't have good hardware, so the Vista Experience was brutally slow. Windows Vista Ultimate Extras was a nice feature to have because you got lots of things with it. Kind of like a Plus Pack. I wonder why there are no Windows 7 Ultimate Extras.

They didn't have an Ultimate Extras program for Windows 7 because of the poor reception they received originally for Vista Ultimate Extras. They had a hard time releasing updates and features for the Ultimate Extras program on Vista, so users weren't happy and public reception of the program was poor. As a result, they didn't have Windows 7 Ultimate Extras.

Great video! A couple of additional things :) 1) Microsoft handed off the whole Dreamscene thing to Stardock, who makes a version for Windows 7/10. There were unofficial ways to use Dreamscene in Windows 7 as well. 2) Windows Vista came in a ridiculous amount of editions - Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate. Beyond the "Ultimate Extras", the Ultimate edition was also an option for a business that wanted "Enterprise" features without having a full Enterprise agreement with Microsoft, such as the language packs, domain join functionality and so on. Also unlike Windows 7 Pro which included everything from Home edition, the Vista Business edition did not include all the entertainment features of Home Premium (like Media Center IIRC), but Ultimate did, so Ultimate was really Home Premium + Enterprise together. A video tip would be to do a comparison of the Vista and Windows 7 editions features. :) You can pick your desired edition by NOT entering a product key during setup. You will get a trial period of 3 days or something before it gets upset about activation.

I knew you'd do a video on these eventually. I really like some of the sounds that came with these extras. I think Microsoft really reached their default and extra sounds peak with Vista and 7. There's been more extravagant packs in the past, but the vista and 7 sounds, and the ultimate extras, simultaneously get out of your way and feel like exactly what they mean.

I really miss the Aero theme. Windows 10 just doesn't give us the customization windows 7 or vista or even xp did. Its about forcing a brand on the user, not about letting the user do what they want. I fear Microsoft will make windows 10 into a service that is paid for every month, when that happens I will unplug my ssd and get a new one and install linux. I just cant get over all the crap that is in windows 10, and how hard it is to deal with. Just to name a few things that really get my goat. Cortana, the start menu, the advertising in the start menu, forcing the Microsoft store on us, forcing a Microsoft account on us, the lack of customization, the windows logo in general, the taskbar, the search bar, file explorer. Just to name a few major ones. Why couldn't MS just leave windows 7 alone? It was our only safe haven from the "new" crap that is beyond ugly. Its not like it would be really hard for Microsoft to just put a Windows 7 shell over the windows core OS. Just to make migrating easier. What about windows games? What happened to those?

Microsoft really did something that made my life much less complicated than it had to be in 2007. I really took the ad-joke "Don't ask what Vista can do for you, ask what you can do for Vista" to heart and I said enough to Windows and hardware assessment and all the crap MS came up with and finally found it in me to move on and take that Ubuntu Live CD from 2007 more seriously and proceeded to actually install it onto my computer and use the OS on my daily driver laptop, struggling with APT commands, how stuff gets installed, updated, dealing with dependencies, running Office apps on Linux, etc and I made it. Man, what a decision I made back then, and I'm very proud of it.

Here is a comparison of prices at time: Plus for WIndows 95: $49.99, for 98: $44.95, for XP: $39.95. So the price increase from Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate of $160 is quite a bit higher. But even if you just consider the price difference between Vista Business and Vista Ultimate, that still is $100 more for Ultimate. Quite a big price jump on an OS people did not even like.

Hi Michael, great video there! Btw, I assume you are using vmware for this Windows Vista build (looking at the vmware tools icon on the system tray). I see that the Aero performance is really smooth and great. The thing is, I've never been able to achieve this kind of smoothness even though I'm already using a Xeon workstation from 2015 and R7 370 AMD card. Even animations on Windows XP seem jittery. What should I do with it? Are there any configurations that I might have missed? Thank you!

I actually have this installed on my older gaming desktop PC with the Intel core 2 quad Q9550 with 4 gb ram and gtx 570 gpu. I have that installed on a hard drive while I have Windows 10 installed on the ssd in the same PC. Me, I like the elegant look of Windows Vista and 7.

17:53 You could have it apply across the entire system, but by default, it only applies per user. 2:18 For me, I just wanted to get rid of the annoying Acer bloatware (including that "e" bar that would never go away and interfered with Windows built-in functionality), and I learnt that I could install a retail copy using an OEM licence (basically the Windows 10 "fresh start" feature), but the COA on the bottom was unreadable (common problem with Windows Vista/7/late XP COAs), then some early KZbin tutorial (using HyperCam, Notepad, etc) encouraged me to just pirate Windows Vista Ultimate and use that. I wish I had known about that to pirate Office 2002 on my NEC laptop before that, as it had Word 2002 but not the full suite that my school had on their PCs (I later got myself a copy, but by then, Windows XP was no longer current), as well as getting Microsoft Plus as I believe the Microsoft Plus packs weren't available to buy in Singapore back in the day. 3:37 I can tell that the update mechanism had already been updated to the one included with Windows 7.

5/21/2020 VMware 12 Pro for me.. it’s so annoying when I finish a Windows XP installation after a clear great sounding OOBE and then the garbly Windows XP startup sound comes up... ugh Edit 5/21/2020: Only happens if I have sound turned on on my system

A fix for 2000 and XP is to keep Windows Media Player open and minimized to it's now playing view. Currently unknown how to fix Vista's.

Michael I saw that you were using Windows Vista SP 2 Build 6002... But the latest was 6003. I hope you could obtain that Build because I was trying to get that release as the final update for Windows Vista.

Hi, Michael. Watching this video of Vista made me wish you made a demonstration video of the new "extended kernel" for Windows Vista. It seems that the latest version of Firefox and other some latest applications are able to run with that project. It seems to be an interestingly idea to make a video. Greetings!
@winelectronic101
@winelectronic101 2 жыл бұрын
That project is only available in 64-Bit, and Windows Vista x64 wasn't very common back then, so it would probably not be helpful to the vast majority of those who still have Vista computers.

@@MichaelMJD I have Windows Vista (PRODUCT) RED Content Pack. It's called "X15-19965.exe". If you want it, i can upload it to Google Drive. But if I true or wrong, only 1 or 2 themes are missing. I think these themes are only available on Windows Vista (PRODUCT) RED disc. But at least, i have Windows Vista (PRODUCT) RED Content Pack.
