I installed UWIN 64 on Windows professional 64. Summary:
1) User level applications seems to work (The shell, vi, etc.) although as others have posted here the software is not configured at all for the standard Windows keys. 2) Control panel applet won't work in any way, shape, or form 3) Product is basically non-removable As far as the control applet goes, it doesn't show up in Control Panel at all. It will not run through the UWIN icon, by double-clicking in the windows subdirectory, or by running "control uwin.cpl" from the KSH-64-su, Even though UAC is totally disabled, as shown both in the control panel, and verified via the registry, UWIN cannot be uninstalled: Running the UWIN Uninstall icon gives a Windows type command prompt window. It asks if I want to install UWIN 5.0 and when "yes" is entered, just hangs without any messages. No logs are available in /tmp. The Windows Control panel uninstall option gives the message "You do not have sufficient access to uninstall UWIN 5.0". That is even though I am signed on as the built-in (SID 500) administrator. Manually disabling the UWIN service didn't help. Am unable to change or delete files in Windows. Message is that I need permission to perform this action. I can CHMOD within UWIN but that doesn't really help anything. The CHMOD won't allow a few files to be changed. It doesn't matter that much to me since I rebuild my systems from time to time. But it would seem best to at least give a warning during installation, if these problems can't be fixed.
