    If I wanted to have a Windows PC that only ran VB6 programs...

    If I wanted to have a Windows PC that I wanted to demonstrate only VB6 programs then I'd probably have a limited set of tools and utilities, is this true?

    Would I be able to create a functioning and useful system that had all the tools needed for a modern PC user? I admit a VB6 based browser might be a difficult proposition and asking too much. However, for some of the other tools? It might be possible to switch to something made solely in VB6.

    So that's my question, could you?

    "Would you" is another question altogether which we don't need to have answered, because of course you wouldn't - so at the moment I'm only asking "could you?".

    For example: There is XYplorer, the VB6 alternative to the Windows File Explorer.



    Winstep Nexus is a Windows dock alternative, written in VB5 which I reckon counts just as well



    So, are there other useful VB6 alternatives to the sort of tools you would typically find on a PC?

    Let's start with something simple, an editor. Is there an editor written in VB6?
