  • The Microsoft Layer for Unicode on Windows 95, 98, and Me systems (MSLU) helps to provide a layer over the Win32 API on Win9x so that you can write a single Unicode version of your application.

    This latest version (1.1.3790.0) fixes several bugs reported by customers, and was first made available on December 10, 2004.

    The download contains UnicoWS.dll (the MSLU binary), and UnicoWS.pdb which can be used when debugging. Instructions for using MSLU can be found in the latest Platform SDK, which also contains the library (.LIB) file used for integration with C and C++ applications.

    This latest update fixes the longstanding "ambiguous EULA" problems and fixes some minor reported bugs in the DLL itself.
