Game over I think, it doesn't get better than this! Neneh Cherry onstage at the Glastonbury Festival after the laptop running her background video apparently crashed!

Yep, the idea is that only some hives (not all of them) and definitely NOT root of the Registry (which BTW doesn't really exist) are editable. You cannot create a new hive in root because essentially root does not exist, it is only a sort of mounting point for the Registry backing files. The Registry (as seen by Windows) is a "volatile" structure "assembled" on-the-fly from a set of Registry backing files. The correspondence between Registry backing files and Registry (and the way it is accessed/displayed) , just in case: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/256986/windows-registry-information-for-advanced-users More details and a nice tool here: http://reboot.pro/topic/20848-dumpreg/ jaclaz

Hello, everyone Because I am a Chinese, I want to provide you with some useful information about Chinese browsers. Since many government agencies and users in China are using windows xp, at least 80% of browser vendors in China support windowsxp, and you can search engines in Google or Baidu ( https://baidu.com the equivalent of Google in China). Search directly on the "浏览器" (Chinese in the browser), he will return search results of many browsers, such as “猎豹浏览器” (Cheetah browser, based on chromium55), "搜狗高速浏览器" (Sogou high-speed browsing , said to be based on Chrome6x), "UC浏览器" (UC Browser, based on Chromium55), ”2345 浏览器“ (2345 browser, based on chromium56), as well as the “360 浏览器" mentioned in this article, etc. But these browsers have the following problems compared to foreign browsers (such as chrome) First: advertising, because Chinese manufacturers of domestic browsers need to be profitable, so they will have built-in ads in the browser (advertisements are sent by the browser, you can not use adblock to block it), usually these ads will be at the bottom of the browser Or the bottom right corner of the pop-up window, you are very bored Second: privacy issues, due to Chinese government policies and browser vendors need to make a profit, so it can be said that all Chinese browsers will collect your personal privacy data, no matter how you set it in the browser, but because of this Political issues, I am not convenient to say here. (The above users also mentioned why the 360 browser can't log in using the google account, it is also because of the government's policy, so all Chinese browsers are not allowed to log in to the google account) For the above two questions, I am here to give you a few suggestions: First, and most basic, if you want to use the Chinese version of the browser, then please use the international version instead of the Chinese version. Second, if you know Chinese or if possible, you can go to Google or Baidu to search for the browser + green version you want in Chinese, or the browser + Lite you want, or the browser you want + Optimized version, for example, if you want to use 360 browser, then you can use keywords: 360浏览器精简版、360浏览器优化版、360浏览器绿色版 (English meaning:360 browser lite, 360 browser optimized version, 360 browsing Green version) to search,Please note that after downloading, use anti-virus software to check whether the file contains viruses. Because China's domestic software generally contains a large number of advertisements, the privacy collection of the software itself is too serious. Therefore, there are many good third-party modified software collection websites in China. For example,吾爱破解 ( http://www.52pojie.cn , English means I like to crack), qiuquan's blog ( http://www.qiuquan.cc/browser/, a private blog, but the modified version of the blog master made the browser, especially the 360 browser is very famous),This is what he did -- Streamlined automatic update procedures; -- Streamlined English language files; - Streamline presets for each plugin; -- Streamlined Thunder download module; -- Streamlined URL query module; - Streamline the browser doctor module (because it is a bit useful, so use it as an option); -- Streamlined built-in 360 security guard module; -- Streamline the win8 metro interface support module; -- Remove developer mode warnings; -- Remove redundant menu items from the Help menu; ++ Upgrade the built-in Flash plug-in version to 32.0.0.192 The latest harmonious stable version (because the latest version of the Flash plug-in is preset, the installation package is larger than the official version). ++ Optional install "Advertiser Defender" filter plugin, default subscription "cjx82630" + Baidu Beautification Rules + Add Network Disk interface refresh rules (if you need to overwrite the installation, this box is not selected); ++ Modify the word search engine to be "Baidu"; ++Adjust multiple details, optimize program settings, and change the default search to "Baidu"; ++ The default setting of the new tab page is 12 squares, and remove the extra button in the upper right corner. Thanks to the group members for "low-key dě gorgeous" to provide technical support! ++Resolved the problem that the previous version could not preset the skin to "Speed 8" (Speed 9 is no longer needed); ++ restore the new tab page to the nine-square grid style; ++ Turn off "hardware acceleration" by default to avoid watching some videos appear card screen phenomenon; ++ prohibits the generation of the "debug.log" log file; ++ prohibits the creation of the "User Data\safemon" directory; ++Add "Xunlei" dedicated chain plugin and "Alipay" security plugin; The ++ uninstallation process adds "whether to retain browser bookmarks and personal configuration information" to avoid accidental deletion of important bookmarks; The ++ program is packaged with Inno Setup, which supports silent installation and adds a parameter. download link: http://www.qiuquan.cc/browser/360chrome.html Similarly, there is a post in the Russian forum ( http://forum.ru-board.com/topic.cgi?forum=5&topic=49673#1) which is also about modifying the 360 security browser, you can also use this version

makecab acpi.sys is enough, gives you acpi.sy_ Dietmar

Best is, to make a new *.iso install CD for XP SP3 with nlite. And in installationsfolder, just change acpi.sys against new version via makecab.exe Dietmar PS: I tested this on 2 AM4 boards, asrock fatal1ty ab350 gaming k4 and asus prime b350 plus and a lot of newer Intel boards, works everywhere.

... For the duration you can still display your Windows/Microsoft Update History in IE8, I guess you can use a virtual PDF printer to archive those IE8 pages to a handy PDF file; just a thought you should entertain IMHO ... EDIT: Beaten to it by mere seconds! (Great minds think alike, yada, yada... )

en/disabling flags in CPUID doesn't act the same as real CPU, since it will still process those instructions even that flag is disabled.

Binisoft, the company behind Windows Firewall Control (WFC), was bought out by Malwarebytes: https://www.zdnet.com/article/malwarebytes-acquires-windows-firewall-control-firm-binisoft/ https://www.binisoft.org/ https://www.binisoft.org/wfc On the current iteration of the WFC home page, no archived versions of the app exist , only a historical changelog ; v4.9.6.0 (Vista+WS2008 EoS) was released on Mar 26th 2017 and at a time when the "free" version had several limitations compared to the registered (paid for) one... I can't help commenting on the author's "rush" to drop Vista (but also WS2008) support with version 4.9.7.0, just days after MS ended Vista's Extended Support on April 11th 2017: FWIW, .NET FW 4.6 was/is officially supported on Vista, so what was the rush to drop Vista? Fortunately, the Web Archive has salvaged the download link for WFC v4.x.x.x: http://www.binisoft.org/download/wfc4setup.exe The Mar 1st 2017 snapshot will get you v4.9.4.0 (Vista compatible): http://web.archive.org/web/20170301124512/http://www.binisoft.org/download/wfc4setup.exe but, sadly, there's no WA link for v4.9.6.0 . I have managed to track down a saved copy of v4.9.6.0 in a Czech software portal, and that's because they had actually archived it on their servers (and not just redirect to author's download link): https://stahnu.cz/firewall/windows-firewall-control/download/6 I've scanned the setup locally with Kaspersky Internet Security (with latest defs) and it appears legit and clean; virustotal also gives it a clean bill: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/6dc5106c7018567adc4e5473ed0676b7d9acfe0312f3eb0578b9f9954848b1c1/detection NB, you do need .NET FW 4.5.x+ to run the app; screengrab of the setup running just before actual installation: Enjoy...

... If you thought 360/Qihoo had shown scandalous behaviour (in the past?), what do you call QQ's one ? https://citizenlab.ca/2016/03/privacy-security-issues-qq-browser/ https://www.quora.com/Is-QQ-safe-to-install ... And, as mentioned elsewhere, I simply hate it that the latest breed of Chinese Browsers (e.g. Maxthon and QQBrowser) auto-associate themselves with Word and PDF documents, including media (audio+video) files... I had once Maxthon 5 installed in its portable mode, but even then it kept hijacking document and media file associations; I had a terrible time ridding my laptop's disk and registry of many of its remnants ...

Windows Vista (and later versions) buildin firewall is good enough (and supports stealth mode). The only thing that is need to use it effectively is a better control tool than the native Windows "control panel". Try Windows Firewall Control, it is very lightweight and free. You need version 4.9.6.0 or older because Vista support is dropped since 4.9.7.0.
