Kudos for your outstanding work!! Recently I came across a "weird" problem concerning ISO-files. My setting: Windows 11/25H2 and 7-Zip 25.1.0.0 ISO-files with UDF 2.5 file system from xreveal or anydvd The problem: It's not possible to open ISOs created by xreveal or anydvd (with 7zFM or 7zG). Any other ISOs work flawless with 7-Zip. WinRAR and the whole buch of editors (e.g. ImgBurn, WinISO, PowerISO, ISObuster) website have no problems with those files. I've attached 2 small demo-files, created...

This is a very relevant discussion, as most iTop community deployments are heavily customized to align with specific business workflows, making flexible app integration essential. Enhancements like supporting custom queries (for example, SELECT CustomClass WHERE friendlyname LIKE CST-6543), creating tailored list screens, and enabling request approvals directly within the app can significantly improve usability and operational efficiency. As these integrations evolve, clear documentation, UI screenshots,...

Yes, you can use WinRun4J for this scenario, but the error you’re seeing happens because Windows services expect applications to respond quickly to the Service Control Manager, while Minecraft servers take time to initialize and don’t natively behave like services. A common workaround is to use a service wrapper such as WinRun4J or NSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager), which is specifically designed to run long-running console apps like Java servers as background services. These tools handle startup...

This behavior is likely related to how Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 handles process cleanup on legacy operating systems like Windows 98. Even after the main window is closed, Devcpp.exe may continue running in the background due to unresolved threads, plugins, or compiler processes that don’t terminate correctly on older systems. Since Windows 98 has limited process and memory management, any lingering background task can block a clean shutdown, which explains why the system only powers off properly after manually...

Moving from MediaWiki to Allura is a smart step if your goal is wider collaboration, especially for non-technical users like accountants. Traditional wikis often fail due to complex formatting and low usability, so a more user-friendly, WYSIWYG-style documentation system with version control and role-based access can greatly improve participation. This balance between simplicity and flexibility is crucial for projects like TurboCASH and mirrors how accessible documentation helps community-driven...

This looks like a classic case of Dev-C++ not terminating properly, leaving the process running in the background and causing system shutdown issues. Bugs like this are especially frustrating because they affect workflow beyond the IDE itself. Hopefully documenting it here helps others identify the cause faster or apply workarounds. For anyone who follows software bugs, IDE updates, or broader dev tool news, blogstride is a useful hub to stay updated on similar issues and tech developments.
