Is there a way for MS to work on Windows 95/97 or are there any alternatives ? I know this may seems old but I'd like to know. I have my reasons.
Thanks.

Re: Windows 95/97
No, Macro Scheduler will not run on Windows 95/97. The oldest operating system currently supported is XP.

Re: Windows 95/97
What is it that your attempting to do? There are a lot of hooks etc that MS can't control in Windows 95/97 as they didn't exist back then. Just wondering what your doing, you might be able to load it into a VM or RDP to a machine and use imaging recoginision but that would most likely be the most of it.

I need to send HTTP requests and image recognition.

Don't know about the HTTP Requests, but Image Recognition via RDP to the machine or running Win 95 in a VM might get you around it.

Re: Windows 95/97
I am making something that detects an event on a screen for a machine that run its controller application on Windows 97 (cant change it because its part of a controller made specialy for that machine). Is there a way I can make something simple in some language that would take a screenshot of the controller screen and send it over to a server where MS is running to evaluate if an action needs to be taken or not?

Re: Windows 95/97
These machines handle some pretty complexe operations but their processing powers really suck. I'm trying to use as little ressource from the controller as possible. That's why I'd like to know if I can just run a little program on the machine that would screencap and send the screen over to another computer where MS is running and that would do all the processing and run the actions that need to be taken.

Re: Windows 95/97
Haven't tested it as I don't have a Win95 machine anymore.

Then have MS monitor the folder path for the image and they do its magic?
