It never worked, just like Millennials

underrated.

Yeah, it's possible to have a good install of ME.

Do a fresh install. (OEMs never got it right).
Disable System Restore (it's almost never a good idea to use it).
Disable Active Desktop.
Disable Hibernation (do this on newer Windows, too).
Don't install 3rd party drivers.

ME boots the fastest on my old machines (which have 95 thru XP installed).

>>56414692
SHEEET, I FORGOT ABOUT THIS.

>>56414239
Literally all Win9x does this.

>>56414226
The OS itself was as stable as win98, but the drivers and OEM installs were really shitty

>>56414692
Was about to say I never remember having a problem with WinME but I was a kid so I didn't really use my computer much.

Then I saw this and PTSD kicked in.

>>56414692
Hahaha holy fucking shit.

I didn't even remember this but now I do.

Its like a repressed memory came to surface.

Is this what being triggered feels like?

>>56414692
fuck you, no really, fuck you, it took me years to forget that shit and now you just make all the memories float back like the a turd.

>>56414226

No. What happened was they basically said screw it and rebased a new OS off NT 4.0.

>>56414692

Oh for fucks sake, you got me.

me wasnt the worst
but the lack of ms dos was inexcusable

>>56414692
active desktop was pretty cool feature though
something like a 2000's conky

>>56414226
STOP LIVING IN THE PAST

>tfw I have never had any problems with WinMe

>>56414692
I remember I actually used Active Desktop.

I had a webpage embedded on the desktop with links to common things that opened up in IE.
I also had a div filled with images.
These images were MSN-linked images that showed if some of my friends were on MSN at the time, and I never had MSN open.
I wrote a server-script that opened MSN for me when I clicked any of them.

Thinking back. Holy fuck it was awful, and so cool, and so awful.

Crashy piece of shit AD.

neither, the sole reason i eventually installed XP was so i could store files over 4G in size

what the hell was the point of it

why didn't they just make a home version of 2000

they started to, see codename Neptune
eventually that was dropped and they worked on whistler instead (aka XP)
