wowexec.exe

[tsumake]

Yeesh, I'm asking so many questions. I accidentally deleted the file "wowexec.exe", thinking it was spyware. It turns out that I need this file to run 16-bit applications on XP. Does anyone know where I could find a copy of this file on the net, or would someone be kind enough to send me it? It's a rather small file. Thanks!

my memory is very vague about this, but isn't this executable related to spyware crap?

 

[tsumake]

Yes, it is. I think spyware makes a "fake" version of this file, called _wowexec.exe. Though, I kinda need the real one to run some specific programs.

You're boasting that yours is smaller? :lol:

It's the uncompressed size that really matters.

Aww geez... pull up your virtual pants, for christ's sake...

 

[SkankinMonkey]

But it's so tiny.

 

[tsumake]

Thanks you guys! It worked. I can finally use all those 16 bit programs I needed. Thanks again!
