Here is another test version, using the PR fork with EJS support (also works on Vista). Instead of Deno, Windows 7 (and Vista) users can install QuickJS.

Yes, but you must do it manually.

Fix what? Second System is not a fix and Vista (sp2) is not a broken operating system. And if you are referring to Haswell patch, it's a completely different product just under the same subscription

@roytam1 I have a build of Firefox 31.0a1 working with Visual C++ 2008. The build works on Windows XP RTM, but crashes in Windows 2000 due to missing uxtheme.dll. https://github.com/ClassicNick/gecko-vc9-dev/releases

Hi, Please, is there a way to get csmwrap work from a usb key with a dos 7 (or freedos) also on the usb key? I would like to use it in this config on a UEFI class 3 laptop. Thank you!

You can pin them.

When using taskbar plumpness, the corner radius does not match the system tray flyout with the selection box.

LOL, I love it (for an America). It still needs work. When I am tired, the punctuation gets much worse. You're speaking my language, now. American English enunciation is a crime to competency. The destructive evolution of defining specific words, in the U.S., is also awful; but that is a newer development.

Thanks! GoldMemory listed a substantially larger range.

Thank you too for the interesting conversation, for an American, your English is rather good. One (logical) reason could be to make an attempt to jointly prevent the French, or the Dutch, from overtaking the young, newly formed country in 3 days. But if the Brits knew how their sacred language will be uglified by the Americans, the deal would be off. P.S. A good observation,

Well, it is nitpicking at this point (on may part); but it still would not prevent Global Governance. You can still run different petri dishes under different rules, and be under the same umbrella of Governance. You can even have stand-offs and wars between them. It would probably work way better, than moving everything to the exact same culture of rule (Open Global Governance). There is a/some history of aristocrats and rulers fearing their own public, more than an invasion. As terrible as it may seem, there is a sound logic to sending males to battle other males (a less powerful public, during times of native unrest [especially if wishing to implement radical change]). While this it is really unlikely to have been the case "extremely" often, you can bet it has been used as a kind of population control; acts of straight out genocide being more documented. America has a pretty strong heritage of having running the Brits out. But, in reality, there is documentation of sizable British forces still being present there, after America won its independence; not long present, but enough to raise questions for some. While I won't say the whole thing was a sham (not nearly well enough informed to deny or support it) you can see the "liberation" of America being a pretty huge selling point, to get plenty of folks risking everything to develop an undeveloped territory. A large quantity of people failed, in the process of developing America. People seeking freedom of religion, freedom to develop experimental utopias, and other enamored by escaping the oppression of their native lands. There is a good chunk of that freedom that has since been revoked. For example, many delighted in the idea of allodial titles; a privileged mostly enjoyed by kings. As the government developed, this type of ownership ideal really kinda disappeared, and is now similar to what is available in many other countries today. This is "JUST" an example; so please, no one run with it as some kind of conspiracy theory. But it does show how blood and bullets could be considered cheap, when your philosophy is that you own it all anyway. What is harder to own, is the beliefs of the people. But, there is a large amount of documentation showing that great progress and success has been had there, for a very very long time. That aside, thank you for reminding me about "Checkpoint Charlie". I had fun distracting myself by digging into different aspects of it; as is available on the web, anyway. I could really easily agree with you about "Open Globalized Governance", as opposed to just the idea of a "Functional Globalized Governance". The latter likely only to be entertained speculatively (by the public), while for former being something likely quite obvious to the inhabitants thereof.

i looked at it in doxygen QueryWorkingSet and Ex are doing partly the same thing they call up NtQueryVirtualMemory where then both access the either "MemoryWorkingSetList" or "MemoryWorkingSetListEx" as parameter // typedef enum _MEMORY_INFORMATION_CLASS { MemoryBasicInformation, MemoryWorkingSetList, // <-- this MemorySectionName, MemoryBasicVlmInformation, MemoryWorkingSetExList // <-- and this } MEMORY_INFORMATION_CLASS; however on msdn they might look different: (QueryWorkingSet) typedef struct _PSAPI_WORKING_SET_INFORMATION { ULONG_PTR NumberOfEntries; PSAPI_WORKING_SET_BLOCK WorkingSetInfo[1]; } PSAPI_WORKING_SET_INFORMATION, *PPSAPI_WORKING_SET_INFORMATION; (QueryWorkingSetEx) typedef struct _PSAPI_WORKING_SET_EX_INFORMATION { PVOID VirtualAddress; PSAPI_WORKING_SET_EX_BLOCK VirtualAttributes; } PSAPI_WORKING_SET_EX_INFORMATION, *PPSAPI_WORKING_SET_EX_INFORMATION; the parameter sizes are the same, so a linking to that function works, just maybe not fully functional that we should keep an eye on if it behave different if they behave different you have have to write a code that redirects to QueryWorkingSetEx to -> NtQueryVirtualMemory with that MemoryWorkingSetExList xp might got this function parameter

Thanks !!! Never know what one will discover from MSFN. I've been estimating based on Publication 15 Circular E and Tax Schedule X/Y.

I changed pref. dom.ipc.processCount from default 1 to 4 (no multi-process enabled for now, browser.tabs.remote.autostart: false). Is it just my imagination, or do websites load better and Serpent 52.9 uses memory less wastefully and actually recovers it after closing memory-hog sites?

The hate for the Ribbon toolbar died quickly. I remember how initially there was even a paid add-on to put a normal toolbar into Office. I don't even have Office 2010; it is fairly chunky. My operating system is Windows 2008 R2, so those updates are not applicable. Well, I hope it can at least recover some text that I can reformat if needed. My only other alternative is Office on a Xiaomi smartphone, which can open X and save to another format. I don't even get how that program could be used productively.

I was never able to correctly open all *.???x files with either Office XP or Office 2003 using the Compatibility Pack. As a result, I moved to Office 2010 with UBitMenu. Another problem with Excel on these previous versions of Office is that they were unable to correctly handle more complicated spreadsheets, such as Glenn Reeves' Excel IRS Form 1040.

"This is a pre-release version of the Compatibility Pack and can only open pre-release Office 2007 files." = This is a problem with MSVCRT.DLL in Windows 2000. I have created Update KB926436-v2 to fix this issue in Windows 2000. You can use the latest version. MEGA Thanks for the information from 2013. https://msfn.org/board/topic/161323-msvcrtdll-without-_resetstkoflw-w2k/

Is not reliable to trust. The RAM can still pass it, but not load Windows.

What of it? It doesn't fix Vista, it's in Alpha mode.

Yes it does, and it worked fine until 1990. Checkpoint Charlie, ring any bells? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkpoint_Charlie

Never noticed the replies to this. Thanks, guys. I used Memtest86+ ranges and added (beginning adjusted for first bad logged address [xxxx000] and end for last bad logged address [xxxxfff] ) it to SYSTEM.INI > [386enh] > EMMExclude=xxxx000-xxxxFFF I see that I have a reduced total amount of ram, listed under properties. It is equivalent to the quantity listed in EMMExclude= Memtest86+ placed the bad memory at about 50mb thru to 65mb. If in Dos only, I use XMSDSK (not at top of memory), create a 75mb ram disk, and then ignore it. I initially thought EMMExclude has something to do with reserved UMB regions. Much latter, when exploring this machine again, I knew better. Anyway, that is what I have done. If you have any corrections, advice, or warnings, I'm all ears. EDIT: I had to use HIMEMX, as HIMEM.SYS complains about the detected bad memory; and prevents the loading of Windows.

Detailed explanation of this issue on WinXP SP3: https://github.com/3dyd/pyinstaller-builds/issues/2#issuecomment-3464525813 Excerpt form PyInst-6.0.0 documentation: https://pyinstaller.org/en/v6.0.0/CHANGES.html#incompatible-changes The psapi.dll in question (with the missing function) is the system one, while the one inside the "_internal" dir (which isn't being loaded when PyInst-6.16.0-xpmod has been used) is PSAPI.DLL, one of the four wrapper DLLs (kernelXP.dll, ntextl.dll, psapi.dll, ws2_xx.dll) that are used to backport py3.11.4 to XP ...

Or you could copy a Psapi.dll with that API (Vista/ROS/Wine/KernelEx) to the local directory. Patching might be the best option -- this is one case where dropping the "Ex" from the end actually works (same three parameters). Using a hex editor, change "QueryWorkingSetEx" to "QueryWorkingSet" by replacing the "Ex" with two nulls.

I had a compatibility pack v4 from 2009 and was unable to open this example file. Registering ole32.dll didn't resolve the problem. The event log has a report saying that Wordconv.exe had crashed every time I try to open a DOCX. Unfortunately on my system crashes are silent like that. Installing this older compatibility pack v2 from 2006 was sucessful. I can now open the files I have on hand including this test file with my avatar. I do remember this pack v4 actually working because it is the only one I have. But that was on 32-bit WinXP. I was not able to open a new thread in this forum, which I initially wanted to do. I remember that was discussed some months ago. The error from the forum was "something went wrong".

My Office is 2007, so I may not be of much help. But maybe this will fix your issue (article cites your exact issue but on Windows 2000) -- https://superuser.com/questions/1504407/office-2003-cant-open-newer-office-files More specifically, solution was to use "version 2" of the compatibility pack (linked in superuser article) -- https://www.malavida.com/en/soft/microsoft-office-compatbility-pack/download
