I too would like to find a way to install an older version. Last nite I
accidentally erased the Solitaire game, and then when I went to install
the latest
version of KDE-Win, I found that most of the things I used it for are
gone! Solitaire, for one. Find Files, for another. XSane. I don't know
what all.
I'm not even sure if Dolphin is still there--the name was corrupted by
the addition of something hyphenated, i think it was. Without these things,
I might as well not have it. And of course, you never made KSnapshot
work in the Windows edition. That would be a BIG improvement over
the Snipping Tool. Without KS, you are forced to find some kind of app
that will let you post a picture in it, so you can print the "snipped"
image.
(I usually use WordPerfect, since you don't provide Gwenview. So I'll
keep the KDE on the two Win installs where it still works (older versions)
and I'll forget about trying to use it on the third system where it
screwed up. Unless, of course, the older versions are made available.
