Mum Tries Out Visopsys 0.7.3 (2014)

It seems like quite a few people have started developing operating systems from scratch with no links to Windows, Mac or Linux. Here is yet another one of these projects which focuses on cherry picking the best features from various operating systems while leaving out the annoyances.

Don't forget to visit the OSFirstTimer forums here:

Tasks Given:
- What time is it?
- Write, Save and Open a text document
- Calculate 58 / 3
- Play Snake
- Play Mine
- Change the desktop background
- Turn off the computer

The double click allows you to select an icon without opening it, I think it's a hold-over from Windows 3.x and earlier, before right-click functionality was added, to allow you to perform other functions like rename and copy.

2014: That's some good backgriund music
2021: *sebee intensifies*

I don't know why but Visopsys sounds like a medical condition :)

The Programs icon is an engine block with an attached cooling fan.

This was a great, funny video. You two must have had a ball shooting this one. Top form! Thanks.

11:07 every time you see Mines you always said minecraft.

"What if I sized the program window and extra icons appeared and the developer didn't know!?" Couldn't stop laughing :D

[MrARM]

The double click is for select then open for you can rename, open, other rightclick stuff

From any version of windows since I think 95, you can change it to single click without any third party software. Just check online on how to do so.

You can set windows vista/7/8 to click once on desktop icons....

I sent code to Visopsys! A single change in a keyboard localization! So awesome! :3

The joke about new programs appearing out of nowhere was hilarious. One day quantum computers will do just that.

For a guy who made the OS by himself it's good

You uploaded the video in the middle of Saturday night takeaway in the UK.

I love your videos!  Please keep up the good work!

[MathiasLindberg]

Double-click was replaced by mouse-over, or perhaps mouse-over was replaced by double-click? Either way, sometimes developers use mouse-over, other times they use double-click.

I dunno if you’ll see this comment, but I really love these videos, keep it up!

A shell isn't just a command-line interface, it is a interface where users can execute operating system commands on a computer, command-line or visual like the desktop's we see in modern operating systems.
