Tested on Windows 11 23H2. Works fine. (Installed it in my System32 folder, replacing the newer version.)
I had the same problem with it not working. Here is how I fixed it. Go to Major Geeks and download Resource Hacker. Run the program and open up the file Mystify you got here. Notice there are three lines listed. Where you see the name "Mystify" change it to something else but make sure it's the same on all three lines. Then save it to the same name. Copy and paste the file to C:/windows then open up screensaver app in Windows. You should see it there. Mine is working in Win 10. Special thanks to Jannik for the advice.
To make it work u need to use Resource Hacker to change the "string value" @ table 1 to something other than Mystify
It's great. You can watch it for a long time and it's never the same...it's very interesting and can aid in meditation.
This hasn't worked since windows vista, since they changed to the newer version and kept the name the same. Anyone know a workaround? I need my win3.1 fix!
Since Windows 7 has a screensaver of the same name, it might conflict. What I just did "and it's working" is right click on the file and rename it. I chose Mistify. Then copied it to C:Windows. That didn't work. Then I copied it to C:Window/System32. Then went back to the where you choose your screensaver and choose Mystify. It should be working now.
does not work.
good
gold
Simple y fabuloso

This is my favorite screen saver, but I can't make it work in windows 7 so I took away one star
The screensaver is great; however, whenever I try to install it to the screensaver settings, it shows up as "MystifyP" and it's the Mystify screensaver for Windows 10. What should I do about this? This is a great screensaver though!
