## AI overview

A weekly ReactOS development update describes reviewing older bugs, including an unreproduced issue involving the VMware audio driver, stobject.dll, Explorer, and the desktop taskbar.

## Source excerpt

Hello! It's this time of the week again where I have to sit down and try to remember everything I have been doing over the week. I began the week by looking at some older pending bugs. First, I looked at an issue where using the branch with the vmware audio driver installed would crash stobject.dll and because it's loaded into explorer-new, the rest of the desktop and taskbar. I couldn't reproduce this issue, so I moved on.
