How to install active desktop update on a non English version of Windows

Here is a video to install Active Desktop update without installing Internet Explorer 4. Go to the folder where your IE files are stored. I recommend you to copy all the IE files to your HDD. The Language of Internet Explorer and Windows 95/NT must be the same to install Active Desktop Update. If you have ie 5 or ie 5.5:

Execute the following command:

For NT 4.0:

IE5Setup.exe /C:"ie5wzd /e:IE4Shell_NTx86 /I:Y"

For WIN95:

IE5Setup.exe /C:"ie5wzd /e:IE4Shell_WIN /I:Y"

If you have IE 6 (Windows NT users only) Execute the following command:

IE6Setup.exe /C:"ie6wzd /e:IE4Shell_NTx86 /I:Y"

Make sure you are connected to the internet and/or your ISO/CD of Internet Explorer 5 or 6 is in the (Virtual) CD drive.

This way of installing Active Desktop Update doesn't work on Nashville (build 999) because Nashville has trouble with the new explorer and shell.

Active Desktop sucks. :-)

@an65001 That's your opinion, but actually I agree. It only makes explorer better, but it's not very effective.

je lijkt net FreightExpress1993 hoe je praat op een manier wel grappig ;)

@ComputerPowerBoy Het was niet de bedoeling om op Duran te lijken. Hoewel ik zo normaal mogelijk probeer te praten pakt mijn mcrofoon dat niet zo goed en gaat het omzetten in een wat grappigere stem :P Maar ach, ik deed deze video omdat ik Active Desktop Update niet kon instaleren via Internet Explorer 4 op Windows 95 in het Nederlands. Daarom deed ik dit om te laten zien hoe het wel kan lol :)
