[I should have said Windows 1.0 -- I had a copy of that as well as Windows 2.0 and Windows 286.] > Standard GUI stuff since Windows 2.0 and earlier, You mean DOS 1.0 ? No, I said an operating system with a GUI interface. DOS was not, although there were graphical programs. Microsoft was not first. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ History_of_the_graphical_user_interface#Microsoft_Windows_.2816- bit_versions.29> > Yes, very nice explanation, it should work like this, but it did not > because the localstore.rdf file in some way was corrupted as Hartmut > Figge explained to me.

Hopefully, you meant 10.0.2 (1.0.n would be quite old). > I have an older Portable SM 2.0.1.4 on an USB stick, there I can do > this.

I still have SM 2.4.1, although just now I've gotten notice that 2.7.2 is now available in my Linux repository. I'll probably upgrade later this weekend. -- -bts -This space for rent, but the price is high _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
