Chit-Chat / Downloaded Pelles C 13

Last post by hewurfeljr - December 24, 2025, 12:47:01 AM

I was able to download Pelles C 13 from the web site saved
on the Wayback Machine of the Internet Archive. I installed
it on Windows 11 and it works great.

Actually i want to find an old code from 2014 - 2015,
when i tested COM typelib from quartz.dll

With this code device is available, even WinMCI stopped working with it.
