BUG: C# 2008 Express changed the tooltip color in all Vista's wind

I have installed C# 2008 Express edition in Windows Vista, and I
found this huge bug:
the tooltip shown to the up corner of a window has the old yellow style
color.
Minimize, Maximize, Close buttons show a yellow tooltip in Explorer and all
other programs; instead buttons, system tray icons and other UI elements show
Vista grey style tooltip.
It seems VS2008 Express has changed some Vista shell dll files.

After I posted, I looked on my wife's computer, and it behaves the same.
C#,
express or otherwise, is that last thing she needs on her computer...
Yep, the top level Window Frames are handled by the DWM, who draws the
tooltip using the settings (color, font and weight) from the current "Window
Color Appearance" - "Classic appearance properties/advanced" settings.

I have to take this personally now. Tooltips have been flakey since the dawn of .NET, but to still have to put up with a disappearing tooltip in VS 2008 is getting beyond a joke. Tooltips have always done this, so isn't it about time they were fixed? I have a tooltip that I assign to a button control on my form. I hover over the button and up pops the tooltip. I move away and the tooltp fades. I hover again, and back comes the tooltip....

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
