Ok. You can't see my username but I can as of today. If I open another browser where I'm not logged into my account, I can't see my username, either. So something must have changed. -
Perhaps it is only showing you TO YOU. What happens if you log in on one machine, but then browse on ANOTHER DEVICE (ie, your beloved Android) but DO NOT LOG IN ??? My guess (strictly just a guess) is that your Androind (not logged in) will NOT reveal "to you yourself" that you are logged in and on MSFN *on a different device*. -
Steve: I did as instructed and it worked (naturally). Right now my folder has 25h2 as part of the name. when I change it to 26h2 in the fall I guess I'll have to do the same procedure? regards... -
For example, this page here:
- Today
-
What page? Any post's Recently Browsing and the Online Users page (grayed when Hidden) work as expected for me. I don't see AstroSkipper in either place. If you've toggled it several times in testing, that might have fixed any glitch. -
Are account security settings no longer being taken into account?
xper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Site & Forum Issues
I can't see your username. It's hidden.

Not working for me. My setting was 'Hidden" for years. But as of today, I can suddenly see my username. That has never happened before.

Yep I decided to update WUD as it just wasn't compatible with MS's new WU servers. As to your two questions, 1) Are you sure you didn't change the download folder before installing the new version of WUD? Uninstall WUD and then reinstall v2.50 and then after v4.80 without changing the download folder. 2) Unfortunately due to the changes made to the new version of WUD, the change download folder option can no longer be changed and is completely removed in the BETA version going forward. -
Working for me. I just now changed my Online Status from Visible to Hidden to Visible; Recently Browsing on a refreshed page correctly tracked each change.
-
As of today, I can see my username right at the bottom of the relevant page, even though I’ve disabled this in my account settings. What on earth is going on now, apart from the MSFN outages that have been going on for over a week? Is this supposed to be a new feature, or has the forum software gone completely haywire?
-
Weren't both menu bar and Windows 7 command bar deprecated at some point in time with one of the 25H2 updates?
-
STEVE: I must have missed the memo, I didn't know about the new WUD. Wow been using the 2.50 version since I started shaving, LOL. Great work. I installed the stable version and the files downloaded flawlessly. However the changelog says they are supposed to download to the Documents\Windows Updates Downloader folder? That folder was not created under my documents folder. Did I do something wrong or interpret incorrectly? I don't know where the downloaded files went. Also it it possible to bring back the ability to download the files to a folder of our choosing (Browse). regards....

@Dave-H As you haven’t said anything about the suggestion I put forward so far, I’d like to know whether that’s an option for you, or whether limiting the online updates isn’t an option. You can always restore the cache folder once Panda support gets back to you, though I don’t really expect that to happen.

How convenient for them "we are unable to investigate or provide support". Let them drink damage with Windows 11. -
I don't believe you'll be able to install NT4.0 from USB, even XP cannot be done this way, it has to be from a CD-ROM disk. I hope you make it work.

I got a response from Watchguard technical support. "At this time, we have not received any official communication indicating that Windows XP support for Panda Dome has been discontinued. Based on the information currently available, Windows XP continues to be listed as a supported operating system for the legacy Panda Dome version referenced on the Panda website. Based on the information you have provided, this issue appears to be related to **Panda Dome**, which is a consumer (home) product. While we understand your concerns regarding the recent crashes of **PSANHost.exe** on Windows XP, we are unable to investigate or provide support for Panda Dome through WatchGuard Technical Support." So it appears that they only deal with professional business customers at Watchguard support, and they can't help private domestic customers. I would have to use the domestic support channels for Panda support, which I've already done, of course! The guys at AnyTech365 have promised to let me know if they hear anything about the status of XP support from Panda, so all I can do is wait. -
Hi everyone, hi @Dietmar, I'm a retrocomputing enthusiast and I've been following this thread with great interest. I'd like to ask for some help from the community. Would anyone be able to share a complete collection of all the modified x64 acpi.sys builds released so far for Windows XP x64? I've only been able to piece together a partial version history across various threads, and I'd like to test them systematically on two machines: - ASUS F540LJ-XX028T — Intel Core i3-4005U (Haswell, 4th gen), 4GB DDR3L, Intel HD Graphics 4400 + NVIDIA GT 920M - Lenovo ThinkCentre M73 Tiny — Intel Core i7-4765T (Haswell, 4th gen) Which modified x64 acpi.sys build is currently considered best/most stable for 4th generation Intel (Haswell) hardware? I've seen references to the 5048 series, the 7777.x revisions, and some "A5x11+A5x03" variants, but I haven't found a clear recommendation specifically for Haswell. On Windows XP x86, I had good success on the same ASUS Haswell laptop with two builds: "5048 - 2019.11.1 - diderius6" and "5.1.2600.6666 - 23.10.2020". I'd like to replicate similar results on x64 now. I'm also aware from this thread that the modified intelppm.sys can cause a measurable performance drop on some CPUs (saw the report on Broadwell) — happy to benchmark this on my Haswell hardware too if that data point is useful. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help — happy to share test results/logs from both machines. -
Could the Next Firefox ESR Version Be Supported on Windows 7/8x ?
halohalo replied to Jody Thornton's topic in Windows 8
Mozilla will provide security updates for Firefox 115 ESR until March 2027. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-users-windows-7-8-and-81-moving-extended-support It is a good news for Windows 7 or 8 users. - Yesterday

I'm using Office 2010 on XP.

@UsefulAGKHelper I used a Dell 3040 to test the eMMC driver and it worked, but the computer has poor parameters to use it for anything specific , so I don't care about I2C support. I'm basically not interested in laptops and unusual mini-computers. Besides, my goal was to add UEFI, NVMe, USB3 and ACPI support to WinXP 64-bit and I managed to achieve it, so overall the goal was achieved. I think I've had enough and don't want to continue patching - anyway, there's a lack of testers and too little interest I've done a lot anyway: I added UEFI boot support I added basic UEFI NVRAM Boot Menu editing support I added restart from OS to UEFI firmware I patched kdcom.dll and bootvid.dll to easy debugging I patched hal.dll for restart working I successfully tested booting from the eMMC disk I have my favorite modern desktop WinXP 64-bit computer with all working devices (full drivers) - 8 Gen CPU, 16 GB RAM, an NVMe drive from which it boots in 18 seconds + PCIe graphics card with working 3D and a large 2K monitor, sound, network. The motherboard in this computer does not limit me like a laptop or some unusual mini-computer with soldered CPU, RAM or eMMC disk: I decide which keyboard and mouse I will use - PS/2 or USB I decide whether I will use a SATA or NVMe drive I decide which graphics, sound and network card I will use - PCI or PCIe I decide what processor and how much RAM I will use I have COM ports for debugging -
My Browser Builds (Part 6)
exogenesis replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
https://iso.reactos.org/ Select BootCD or LiveCD folder both of these for many years take a while forever to load the page I guess browser or maybe P3 arch. Any known about:config, script, plugin that can help load the complete page faster. Ask as I did see similar situation decades ago with Firefox with similar pages and after a while loaded faster. I forget after all this time if the site, browser got a fix or it was something I read and applied to help the browser to load the page faster. -
@Dave-H what is your microsoft office version on your xp? Mine is 2007. Could please add that to your panda exclusions ? Thanks When I scanned my system using panda cloud cleaner ( just wanted to make sure that it works ) I got this pop up which I did not read properly, it was almost 5 am that ms office icon was not real or something along these lines. I cancelled the cloud service before getting the results it was taking more than 5 minutes and I wanted to call it a day. Then I realised that ms office would not work along with system explorer. I do not want to jump into any conclusions but I think it might be related. PS. Very hard to access this forum since Monday -
@reboot12 Just so you know feel free to fork my repository of i2cctrl (do whatever change you want there) and also ask dietmar to help with the building of new acpi files. Your controller is already turned on in your case, so you might have a chance. -
Which version of WUD are you using, is it the Legacy version or the current Stable version? If it's the former, then you will need to install the new stable version I released last week. Or you can test the BETA version that's currently available here

thx steve...26H2 hot off the presses! Nothing in there. but getting ready for fall release... But for some reason the 7/14/26 update (kb5101650) (26200.8875) still fails to download (as in previous month's cumulative KB's) using WUD. frustrating. regards....
