    I'm having some trouble confirming what is the last official shell32.dll version for windows 95 osr 2.x systems. The reason why i ask is because i want to ensure most stable operation, although i will be using a patched explorer.exe mentioned via below thread ( dencorso's method ), but for shell32.dll, i want to be sure im first finding the latest official before any discussion is made on using an unofficial one. I have downloaded a package referenced via mdgx, with windows 95 in the title, but windows 95 is not mentioned anywhere in the microsoft article, which is for q313829. downloading the file and extracting shows shel95.dll 4.72.3812.600, however, this is not the same as shell32.dll, and although the updated shel95.dll may be needed, i want to be sure im also getting the most up to date shell32.dll file. interestingly, the inf specifies shell32.dll under "[SedGen.Sys95]" which i presume to be for windows 95, but no such shell32.dll file exists in the package. indirect / vague source of a user who says one can update to shell32.dll 4.72.3812.600 on windows 95: https://fivetechsupport.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2668 dencorso's method for explorer.exe patched with 256 color tray icon fix ( original ie 4.01 sp2's version of explorer.exe version 4.72.3612.1700 apparently is buggy ):
  3. reboot12 started following eMMC disk in WinXP 32/64-bit

    I have a Dell Wyse 5070 test machine with two disks - eMMC 16 GB and M2 SATA 128 GB I installed on M2 WinXP 64-bit in pure UEFI and the OS works well. I have ported eMMC drivers but the system does not see eMMC disk both on system drivers and on those ported. There is only an SD controller device in the Unknown section in the Device Manager: I added HW ID PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_31CC controller to the sdbus.inf file but nothing helps. eMMC_xp64.zip Installation of the KB934428 update does not help either. P.S. Same eMMC disk works OK in Win10:

    Feature Request: It would greatly enhance usability if folders could be pinned directly to the Start menu with flyout menu.

    I think the notice should be changed from "From now on" to "Since *date*"

    That's how it was until recently. But full size boards with enough slots for everything have become uncommon and expensive. Now even powerful systems for games are built on a micro-ATX board. Video, sound and network are still on cards. I think you can find some USB but not very common.

    Now, after @feodor2's versions cleanup, I was able to install Scratchpad 0.7.1 in Mypal 74.1.0 as a replacement for the removed, internal Scratchpad but it doesn't work as intended. The Scratchpad window is partially broken. No possibility to run JavaScript code. From this I conclude that Mypal 74 is not yet at the level of FF 72 or even 74 when it comes to extensions. @feodor2, am I right?

    Today, I have installed and tested Mypal 74.1.0. @feodor2, thanks for this new version and for cleaning up the version number chaos! Good job! My favoured Alice0775 script loading method still works with this browser version as I have predicted in previous posts. And I am very pleased that the Custom Buttons extensions and all my self-created scripts also work there. However, one issue is still present in Mypal 74.1.0. Clicking entries in the Add-ons Manager does not work yet and leads to the well-known message that the address is not understood.

    @tekkaman Motherboards are such fickle things. I've seen a few die, they seem to be one of the main causes of system failure. I believe integrating lots of things onto one board is probably what's causing that. It would be so cool if modern motherboards could just be a breakout board, with just a bunch of PCI-E. All the end-user I/O like USB, audio and video is supplied by cards. Kind of similar to AT, but even more minimal somehow. More expensive but there's an opportunity to build very modular and specialized systems. If a card or port goes bad, you can replace the particular card. You could also keep all the cards when you decide to upgrade the board. It would really cut down on waste.

    No, they don't show up in this case. If I skim the other writeups, I can see how they should have triggered the "safety police" but apparently did not, which is not fair.

    There are some good AI-blocking lists for uBlock. Unsure if they would remove what you are encountering. Me? I haven't used them. I just use custom style sheets to hide the dumb AI content. But I also use custom style sheets to also hide YouTube "comments". So we are clearly two birds of a different feather.

    Suppose you come to this forum and read something that sends your proverbial blood pressure up: that your favorite web browser sucks, feeds Chinese hackers and using WinXP is a threat to national security. You write a moderate rebuttal and everyone ignores it because they really can't see it. The AI has decided that using old software is unacceptable. You come back after a week, write something again including the word "boot.ίnί" and get a silly error. You remove all sensitive words, then obfuscate the word "sυcκs" and it still doesn't work. Would you really come back and continue to read some BS without being able to respond? I would just use a search engine in case I had a problem to solve and not read everything.

    All testing was done with Windows 98 SE Network Realtek PCIe gigabit chips RTL8111C and RTL8111D tested to work - can be found as either PCIe cards or integrated into motherboards. RTL8111E and above don't work with the regular Windows driver, but, in theory, may work with the NDIS 2.0 DOS driver (I have not tested this). TV Tuners Hauppauge WinTV PVR 250/350 works (currently using driver version 1.18.21.22266 found on the WinTV PVR 2.2A CD https://archive.org/search?query=WinTV+PVR+2.2A). This card is pretty versatile and can be used with Windows Media Center in 32-bit XP/Vista and presumably Win7 as well (just not 64-bit). Although in the same WinTV PVR product line, the 150/500 versions do not work with Win9x. Video capture from an ATI All-in-Wonder X800 XL (PCIe) partially works in that I can capture from the S-Video port but there is no audio. Workaround: connect audio to a sound card's line-in jack instead. TV and FM tuners do not work and show a code 10 error in Device Manager - this does not impact video capture, only the tuner portion. It's better to use this card for capturing video under Windows XP but still noteworthy if you're dual-booting.

    Thanks @Tripredacus. I'm not fussy at all.

    I only enabled the one custom theme. I will put making a new theme onto my worklog. Probably won't get to it until Monday at the earliest. If you have a wish about what kind of colors you are looking for, post in the Complaint Department.

    Fellows, Recently the copy dialogue stopped showing the white text in the description: I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I began to get this situation recently. This is my version of Windows: Also, I'm wondering, will this dialogue support the Dark Mode one day? Thanks.

    Sounds like an oddly "modern" metric to gauge a web site's usability. Not for me, but yeah, "to each their own".

    If you have K-Lite codec pack and mostly deafult settings, audio dithering for 16-bit output is enabled in the LAV audio decoder and it's settings. This process alters the sound slightly to reduce noise level So the possible reason why WAV can sound different than flac is because flac goes through the LAV audio and respects it's default settings with dithering (can be changed) and WAV by default doesn't go through the LAV audio and a standard builtin Windows decoder is used instead because wav is a Windows-native format and therefore the dithering setting is not being applied, so the output sounds different despite inputs being the same and lossless.

    Going to the YouTube site has become almost pointless because of the inability to comment. This issue may seem like it has gone away, but it's just encountered somewhat more rarely. If I look from another account,the comment isn't there, and I choose to edit a shadowbanned comment, it says "error" in red type and the comment disappears. Trying to get it to stick takes a long time (while waiting on the site on an old PC) and is usually unsuccessful. Removal of key words or their obfuscation with Greek letters or periods doesn't work. The site's search feature is horrible, feeding the same titles repeatedly, and the performance is of course down at the bottom. I suspect that watching on YouTube-DL is one contributing factor for the censorship. The system considers me a spammer who hasn't watched anything. Another factor is the controversy level of the topic, like politics, war, nationalism, nutrition, drugs, viruses, gender, and such. Comments seem less likely to stick there.

    I just found this thread and registered. I was going to Eclipse, which I like for other reasons, like r3dFox development Is there a way to not use dark mode? I went to Look and Layout, but to no avail. EDIT: It's funny that I say I "found this thread", because it turns out I created it.
