The 'ClassicUnfreezer' is a Macintosh application tool designed to change internal settings of the Classic OS which prevent it from operating correctly. The typical problem, experienced by the user, is that the Classic OS startup progress window approaches the point of completion, but then the progression stops.
I personally experienced this problem, with version 10.3.9. As it is likely that the problem also occurs in other OS versions, I would appreciate feedback on any other OS versions this tool corrects. I, like many long time Mac Users, still require use of the Classic Environment every once in a while. Sometime in the duration of MacOSX updates and patches from 10.3.6 to 10.3.9 the MacOSX changed in a way that caused problems for my Classic OS Environment. Given the frustration I had experienced when the problem initially occurred, I decided to release a tool that others could use to immediately restore their own Classic OS environment.
The current 'ClassicUnfreezer' release is version 1.0.1 and is supported on MacOSX.
I welcome email feedback from users of 'ClassicUnfreezer' to determine the best manner in which to support the software in the future. Please send your comments through the web form at this email contact web form link.
My own Macintosh programming experience began back in the late '80s. A Pascal MPW based custom apartment complex management application program was the first of my endeavors. While working at Apple, I wrote code for test tools, and was the main code contributor to the initial release of the Personal Web Sharing control panel. My code contributions are also included in the Quicken 2000 and Quicken 2001 releases.
I personally strive to create quality, easy to use software. With the ever-changing modern operating systems it has become a challenge to keep software operating from one OS release to another. I hope this software will benefit the computing community. I welcome constructive feedback as I am striving to release progressively improved software.
