![]() ![]() If an application is wanting to use a specific rev of a system dll, then it has to install it local to its bin path. ![]() My #1 suggestion would be that no application can update System DLLs, thats what windows update and Service Packs are for. This really feels like a kneejerk reaction by Microsoft to try to fix something that really should be fixed other ways. Somehow we've got along very well with the XP paradigm. When I say everything, that includes wallpaper jpgs, music samples, movie samples, video samples, true type fonts, Other language resources (I did not install any other language packs (or whatever they are called)). But, if you do some tip-toeing through the WinSxS, you'll see its backup up EVERTHING, not just DLLs. Net assemblies), I would be a little less bent out of shape. My gripe is that if the WinSxS was only storing versioned DLL (like the GAC does for. Once running, I was able to open the properties window for the USB flash drive and ReadyBoost was re-enabled.I've been through DLL Hell, but I have not experienced it since I've been running XP, so why does Vista need to make backups of ALL this stuff. ![]() The Windows Experience Index didn't account for the fact that I'm in a virtual machine and disk performance varies wildly at times.Īfter searching high and low, and even trying to fudge my Windows Experience Index disk score, I found success by simply opening the "Services" MMC panel (in the Administrative Tools control panel), configuring the "SuperFetch" service to Autostart at boot, and then starting it manually. ![]() This computer would not benefit from ReadyBoost. ReadyBoost, is not enabled on this computer because the system disk's performance is high, as measured by the Windows Experience Index Disk score. This device cannot be used for ReadyBoost. I would open the properties panel of the USB flash drive and see the message below in the ReadyBoost tab. The problem I had was that when my Windows Experience Index was calculated, the virtual hard disk was performing too quickly, and ReadyBoost was disabled by the system. This effectively speeds up the small, random reads from your hard disk, since long, sequential reads are faster from a hard disk. ReadyBoost is the Microsoft technology built into Windows Vista and later, which allows you to plug in a ReadyBoost certified USB flash drive (memory stick) or SD card and use it for disk caching. In doing so, I've found in the past that when running Windows 7 in a virtual machine it's beneficial to use ReadyBoost to increase performance. I use VMWare virtual machines for Windows development. ![]()
