  1. Past hour
  2. /s is the destination (in MBR disk S: should be active partition) Yes - it should be the C:\Windows of the windows installation that you want to add to the bootloader Based on my limited knowledge of GPT (and this alligns with what @Tripredacus said) there is no such thing as active partition for GPT disk Instead you may have to (or maybe this will be done automatically) make a FAT32 efi partition instead, but I don't know the details about that cause I don't have much experience with GPT disks, so look that up
  3. This one in particular wasn't even "disguised", the .js file has "browser-detect" right in its name. Watch that uBlock LOGGER and you will learn to spot these before you know it. The LOGGER even has a little arrow to click that opens the .js file in a new tab so that you can read the javascript. Reading these will not turn you into a "coder", but you will learn things to watch for. Such as the browser-detect js being discussed here (discourse) does use Firefox's user agent to define if "unsupported" but does not test for Edge or Chrome user agent. And a small list of CSS entries which define if "unsupported". I've seen more **CSS** render websites unsupported in the last couple of years than javascript functions, which is an odd twist of fate as it used to always be the other way around.
  4. Today
  5. I did a search of this forum as I would think such a question would only be asked or posted here. I did find this old 2008 post https://msfn.org/board/topic/123267-how-to-save-pages-of-forum/ where a poster Kiki Burgh suggested "try clicking on Options -> Download this topic ... choose which format serves you best" Is this option still in use, where it located ! Today I tried to download a single web page https://msfn.org/board/topic/182647-my-browser-builds-part-3/page/1/ This web page I saved for offline viewing. When viewed offline the page did not have all the pictures saved instead of pictures is written Offline mode Pale Moon is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web. Press "Try Again" to switch to online mode and reload the page. Try Again
  6. By the way, do you know if there is any documentation or tutorial about how writing these "personal filters" ? ... I'm thinking that they can be helpful also for eliminate lots of bull**it fom other sites, like as example all the "google data thieves" scripts (googleadsense, googlesyndication, and basically every other googlecraps, just for made an example) Admitting that i can do that, my programming knowledge is very low.
  7. Hey, for whatever reason I can't seem to install XP on this Dell XPS M1710 Laptop, I have a SSD inside and made sure to put in the correct SATA driver so it would detect it but no luck. Vista install fine and detected the SSD but not XP, is there an ISO that has pretty much all the drivers so it's guaranteed to work? TY

  10. > VistaLover: your ublock filter work An thinking that the only unsupported thing that discourse added to their "failure-update" is something called "Relative Color Syntax", that is , as far as i found on the net, just something for derive a relative color from a standard color ... basically, something that none want, none use, none care, and appear is added just for cause problems to the users that don't want (or that cannot, for various reasons) switch to a different browser (that in almost all the cases means change also OS, and in most of these cases also change their machines) Times ago, i posted on their main site remarking this, and the reply was "just buy a new PC" ... after a similar idiotic reply, i just closed with discourse site. Anyway, your filter works, so thanks for the help
  11. Yeah, it was a good read. Currently available in webarchive: https://web.archive.org/web/20250401024102/https://www.geocities.ws/siliconvalley/2072/whyxpbad.htm I remember those days. I was a very late adopter of XP (2003 or so), because 98 had at the time most of what I needed except (towards the end) stability. I gave up on 98 when I got to this forum. XP vanilla was indeed bad, but nlited and properly tweaked it was/is like the old 98, only more stable with and capable of running more "modern" apps (software at the time).
  12. Been that way for a LONG time. I haven't wasted time altering a UA string for almost TWO YEARS. Sure, they often times still work, but that is OLD SCHOOL and we (all) should be learning the NEW SCHOOL methods and not hold ourselves back by not looking outside that old-school-box.
  13. ... No, they don't ; Discourse are serving a browser-feature detection script (believe it or not, this is actually the recommended way to probe a browser engine, rather than blindly block it based on its UA string) and they're looking for these features: https://arkshine.github.io/discourse-features-test/ (NB: Their announcement was recently edited to also cover "import maps" (Cr89+, Fx108+)) In a nutshell, they're dropping support for Win7/8.1 , where the last Cr and Fx supported versions are 109 and 115esr, respectively... ... Please do ; the posted custom filter blocks Discourse's browser-checking script, so your browser (FxESR-115) will be served the full-blown variant of the Discourse-based forum of interest; please be aware that while this hack currently works, it's not future proof; in, say, 6 months' time, one of the browser features they're checking for might end up in production, hence one (or more) forum function might break, to some extent ... That's the way to go , though it doesn't offer any additional clue as to why all but one of your existing logins were mysteriously removed ... Glad to know and... you're welcome ... Saluti !
  14. There's also an article <LINK> that talks about XP being a mess(not by David Cutler). Of course, it's NOTHING compared 'modern' Windows...
  15. First, thanks for all the replies. > VistaLover: firefox 115.27.0ESR (it say it's updated) Yes, i have ublock origin, will try also this system, but already tried agent spoofers and they don't work. r3dfox 140.0.4 (64bit) No, i have not transplanted or migrated the user profile from firefox to r3dfox, just started r3dfox "as new" And yes, that procedure worked and now the passwords are back, thanks.
  16. You only use the /s or /f option on GPT disk partition layout. You cannot make a partition active on a GPT disk.
  17. So, Firefox 115 got extended again. The EOL is set to be February 2026 (when NT 6.0 and 6.1 are really dead) https://whattrainisitnow.com/calendar/ Interestingly, FF115 outlived FF128. Mozilla could have supported Windows 7 and 8.1 up to 128 from the start.
  18. ok next besides assembly would be c++, windows drivers, physical harddrive knowledge and how its programmed to (not engine/api like createfile and writefile or script like "copyfile c:\a.txt c:\b.txt) to write this to a windows xp driver you also have to have knowledge about pe headers sections, relocs ect.
  19. The mu v6 web page got into a click infinite loop and can't get updates in the end.
  20. You are right my friend, I have a lot to learn, I wanted to highlight this because it will fix the problem with the 2 To limit with GPT . @Dietmar@dotexe1337@Damnationare you interested ?
  21. It's still not consistently rolled out with latest Win11 updates afaik.
  22. Works like a charm. I had to reinstall KB5064081 first, which brought the problem back. After installing this version the problem is gone. Thanks for the blazing fast support!
  23. I have two laptops, one with Windows 11 Pro and the other with Windows 11 Home. StartAllBack. On the one with Windows 11 Home, the battery percentage display (new icons) does not work. How can I fix this?
  24. Unfortunately, yes. Please test https://startisback.com/StartAllBack_setup.exe
