Installing "Toolbox" folder in Longhorn 4074+ internet

Post by MrTechNews123 »

Hi, so I downloaded Hounsell's Driver Kit (7.0) and got everything working right. I have DWM set up with Aero glass, so everything is fine. But there's a toolbox folder there that I don't know how to set up. Can someone help me out?

I also could use help setting up internet in this. Every time I try to ping 8.8.8.8, it gives me failures. I tried changing it to Bridged as well.

I'm using VMware Workstation 16.0, set to 6.5-7x compatibility.
please ignore my username i was 10.

You can actually install VMware Tools in Longhorn. You just need to patch the kernel to remove version 5.1 instead of 6.0.

Backup all your kernels, replace them with these, install Tools and then restore the original kernels from backup.
