Hi @invokker, hello from Belgium and welcome to MSFN! I wish you to enjoy the forums! Have a nice day. hpwamr

I see, OK thanks again. And thanks for the axe-IE tip, I will definitely try it.

Hi Several things are wrong in Mypal 74.1.1 the videos integrated into the online newspapers "midilibre.fr " or "ladepeche.fr" do not work, while it works on Mypal 68.14.8 the videos integrated with the "default" or "Dailymotion" parameter on Koreus do not work on 74.1.1.. while it works on Mypal 68.14.8 https://www.koreus.com/video/eriovixia-gryffindori.html I occasionally return to Mypal 68.14.8 which poses fewer video playback problems while waiting for a future version that works.

@DrWho3000 I have abandoned Thorium months ago due to the lack of updates. At that time, I used a ThoriumLoader.exe and a ThoriumLoader.ini file customised by implementing the Thorium Icon Set. If interested, I can upload both files for further use. I do not have any use for it anymore. You still have to adapt the ThoriumLoader.ini file to your needs, of course.

Most likely hang is in SHAppBarMessage call, so take explorer.exe process dump to analyze

Well you better tell what needs to be done to trigger hung or find where hung is - capture dump or find in debugger directly attached to problematic process

ps - if you want to try something one step further and upon your next install, launch the IE6 **BEFORE** your network driver/connectivity, then axe IE6. I personally axe IE by way of the below as a run-as-admin bat-file. Basically, the exe is replaced with a folder of the same name and the exe has its name changed. Windows does not allow a folder and file to be the same exact name. I **KEEP** IE as the OS "default browser" but my IE *cannot* launch. Nothing INTRODUCES security holes in an OS more than having a "default browser"! Unsure why SP2 requires IE6 to be launched but this is not a requirement in SP3 (my SP3's require no IE launch in order for 360Chrome to work). ; takeown /f "c:\program files\internet explorer" /r /d y ; takeown /f "c:\program files (x86)\internet explorer" /r /d y echo y| cacls "c:\program files (x86)\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" /P everyone:f @echo off C: cd "\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer" if not exist IEXPLORE.EXE goto End if exist IEXPLORE.EX_ del IEXPLORE.EX_ if not exist IEXPLORE.DIR md IEXPLORE.DIR if not exist IEXPLORE.DIR goto End attrib -r -h -s IEXPLORE.EXE ren IEXPLORE.EXE IEXPLORE.EX_ if exist IEXPLORE.EXE goto End ren IEXPLORE.DIR IEXPLORE.EXE echo IE disabled. echo If prompted, click "Cancel" then "Yes" on File Protection restore. echo Run enable-ie.bat to allow IE to run again. :End echo y| cacls "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" /P everyone:f @echo off C: cd "\Program Files\Internet Explorer" if not exist IEXPLORE.EXE goto End if exist IEXPLORE.EX_ del IEXPLORE.EX_ if not exist IEXPLORE.DIR md IEXPLORE.DIR if not exist IEXPLORE.DIR goto End attrib -r -h -s IEXPLORE.EXE ren IEXPLORE.EXE IEXPLORE.EX_ if exist IEXPLORE.EXE goto End ren IEXPLORE.DIR IEXPLORE.EXE echo IE disabled. echo If prompted, click "Cancel" then "Yes" on File Protection restore. echo Run enable-ie.bat to allow IE to run again. :End

Agreed. Something with the OS-Level "certificate chain" is not fully installed until after IE6 is launched. No risk, in my opinion. I personally trust the 10sec launch to link that chain together over and above any other certificate-repair/update out there. I personally *avoid* interfering with that linkage via "third-party" cert-interference.

Thanks @NotHereToPlayGames, I really appreciate it. I have been avoiding IE6 like the plague for the last 20 years, so I haven't even touched it for 2 decades. No wonder I didn't even think to try that. I opened IE6 for 5 seconds and then closed it - 360Chrome still can't open ht-tpS sites. I opened IE6 for 10 seconds and then closed it - 360Chrome now can open ht-tpS sites, good. I guess (on my PC) it needs some time to unblock the blockage in the background (Registry). I suppose there is no harm in opening IE6 for 10 seconds, but I am not 100% sure, so I wanted to hear your opinion. It opens this blank white page by default: http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&pver=6&ar=msnhome Is there any risk in opening IE6 for 10 seconds?

I'm a Delphi programmer, and about six months ago, I noticed a strange error in both Delphi and several other applications, such as Snagit, that would freeze. To identify the cause, I disabled several applications until I realized that "Startallback windows 11" was the culprit. It also freezes when I access the settings and doesn't respond. The Delphi code I use to locate the taskbar's position is this one, which returns without a position after the error. function GetTaskBarSize: Integer; Var Data: TAppBarData; Begin Result := 0; Data.cbSize := SizeOf(TAppBarData); If SHAppBarMessage(ABM_GETTASKBARPOS, Data) = 1 Then Result := Data.rc.Bottom - Data.rc.Top; end; function GetTaskBarAlignment: TAlign; var Data: TAppBarData; ScrW, ScrH: Integer; begin Result := alNone; Data.cbSize := SizeOf(TAppBarData); ScrW := Screen.Width; ScrH := Screen.Height; if SHAppBarMessage(ABM_GETTASKBARPOS, Data) = 1 then Begin if (Data.rc.Top > ScrH div 2) and (Data.rc.Right >= ScrW) then Result := alBottom else if (Data.rc.Top < ScrH div 2) and (Data.rc.Bottom <= ScrW div 2) then Result := alTop else if (Data.rc.Left < ScrW div 2) and (Data.rc.Top <= 0) then Result := alLeft else Result := alRight; End; end;

And you can rename the 360Loader to ThoriumLoader or whatever else you decide. Just make sure that the loader EXE and the loader INI both have the same NAME (but one is name.exe and the other is name.ini). Makes it very easy to have dozens upon dozens of browsers/versions all handy for testing purposes between browsers/versions.

Thanks! This works. The list of all installed custom buttons appears again. So, I was spot on with the addons-html.js file. Anyway. One of the two "Uncaught - undefined" error messages has thus been fixed, however, the other one still remains. That means clicking onto the entry Custom Buttons in the Add-ons Manager for opening its list leads to only one error message each time in Mypal 74.1.0 instead of two from now on. Time will tell whether this error has a negative impact, too.

Just copy 360Loader.exe and 360Loader.ini into the Thorium program folder (they can actually go anywhere, but I find that neatest and saves any complications with paths). IIRC (I don't have it installed any more) Thorium uses Thorium.exe as its executable, not Chrome.exe, so you will have to change the line in the ini file to be AppName=Thorium. That's actually what I've always done too, it makes it a lot easier to change the command line switches. Your shortcut will now have to point to 360Loader.exe of course.

so can i copy 360loader into thorium then where does it exactly go is it inmain folder

And not to confuse the issue any more than it may already be, but I would submit that it also depends on HOW you are using Thorium. Me personally, when I did use Thorium (or Supermium), I only used them as "wrapped portables". I never (ever!) "install" web browsers (of any flavor). Again, not to confuse, but you can (because that's how I ran it) run Thorium using 360Chrome's "loader". Then you just do the UA string exactly like you did in 360Chrome (ie, edit the loader's .ini).

That's not how you do it. Right-click on the Thorium shortcut, and select 'properties' from the menu. In the properties box which pops up, you need to add the switch to the command line in the 'target' box. Add a space after what's there, and then add (copy and paste from Mathwiz's post will be easiest) the --user-agent switch.

how do i open and edit command line in thorium or shortcut in notepad, to edit command line, which file name is it

Ublock 65 is fine, I use it for some two weeks The list of installed custom buttons may be fixed too https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/issues/426#issuecomment-3172415836

i think it originates from this kernel extender : it allow some drivers from 7-10 to use on xp, but i do not think it can fix your sound card driver problem dont forget that win7 is a successor to vista, win7 is just a extended vista, win7 has more functions while holding same compatibility after win8 the next windows versions gone a different direction for xp its a different story it is successor to win2000, and the previous nt versions also server2003 originates from xp

Unfortunately the Thorium author has not released a new version of Thorium since v.122. But for a user agent to make Thorium "look" newer, you could try adding --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/132.0.5047.196 Chrome/132.0.5047.196 Safari/537.36" ... to the end of the command in your Thorium shortcut. Any Web server looking at that will think you're using Chrome 132 on Ubuntu Linux. That may get you past "please update your browser" pages or nags at some sites.

I no longer bother to determine Chase's minimum browser version, as there's very little point, once I find an SSUAO that works. But I used to. It never seemed to make any sense though. It would be just some random version or other that was "somewhat" older than the then-current ESR version for Firefox or Chrome. I always wondered if they chose minimum versions that had patched some specific security flaw they were worried about, but who knows? Still, the currently supported version should always work, at least as long as you remove the "R3dfox" bit, or any other clues that you aren't using genuine Firefox / Chrome.
