ReactOS currently lags behind an advanced USB implementation as various bugs and regressions still plague the system.ĭespite this, many people have worked hard and contributed code to improve USB functionality in ReactOS. The USB stack itself is arguably a very complicated one, the code to support it is complex, and maintaining it is not an easy task. Notably, there are a great number of computers that do not come with a CD-ROM drive these days, with the only option being USB in order to boot or install an operating system. USB (Universal Serial Bus) is an important standard adopted throughout the industry and used widely on many devices such as external storage, keyboards, mice, and various other devices. In this particular case, the 0.4.13 version shows the results of significant hard work to bring improvements to the USB stack, further development on the Xbox port boot process, an Explorer File Search for the Shell module, as well as many other changes. The ReactOS Team is pleased to announce the release of version 0.4.13.Īs with prior releases, keywords are noted representing the release itself and highlighting key improvements.
