(Thread inspired by Dr. Flay's thread: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/38561/windows-7-old-games-failing-to-run) Ever since Games Explorer was introduced in Windows Vista, it has caused problems for users with limited access to the internet. Most affected users would have already disabled it by editing GameUX's registry settings or by unregistering the dll (GameUX.dll), but last month Microsoft has taken the domain the Games Explorer system used to phone for game-related metadata and updates out of commission (specifically: "https://games.metaservices.microsoft.com/games/SGamesWebService.asmx"), thus the problem will also show for users which have permanent connection to the internet. Symptoms related to this problem: Game fails to open, but their processes can be seen in the taskmgr The rundll32.exe process related to gameux.dll spikes up to >50% of CPU usage Running a second copy of the game or renaming the game executable works around it Any old game that has been added by Games Explorer itself is affected to this problem, since Windows is using the rundll32.exe process to check the game updates before launching the game. Note that you can't remove said games from Games Explorer itself, only hide it. Even changing the options within the Games Explorer to never check online for game updates and news won't fix this problem. The fix which tackles the problem at its core is to use these registry files provided by user UCyborg (Make sure to read the whole post!): The second fix (or rather a workaround) which is more simpler, but doesn't remove the problem at its core (less recommended than the first one): All you have to do is to open regedit, go to this key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\GameUX\ServiceLocation Changing the server address in the "Games" value to either '127.0.0.1', 'localhost' or '0.0.0.0' ought to fix it.

it will ask you password when you start connecting. if your server is SSL/TLS, you need to change it in server settings page in your account.

All right, you see the driver for the hard disk, and it always remains standard. Added drivers were added to the SCSI and RAID controllers section, and judging by the screenshot, they work correctly. And the SCSI label in the drive name always appears when the AHCI or RAID mode is enabled.

OK corrected.

I have found two other keys that Firefox "hardcodes" forcing the user to set them manually. Here they are. Set them the way listed below: dom.ipc.plugins.asyncdrawing.enabled - True plugin.allow.asyncdrawing - True And an experimental key, that is normally set to True in the 45 ESR version of the patch (it's disabled in the 38 ESR version as it causes a 100% CPU usage all the time), but I'm testing the browsers with the value disabled. layers.async-pan-zoom.enabled - False Please set these other three values the same way and tell me if you notice any improvement in performance. Don't forget to set the other values I listed in the main post, because if you do notice improvements, I will implement them in the first page as well. For Mozilla experts, is there a way to circumvent the "hardcoded" keys in the about:config? The UOC Patch sets most of the keys the way I want, but the ones I listed above, even if I put them in the patch, won't be applied, forcing me to set them manually. I've tried the AutoConfig way mentioned in the Mozilla wiki, but the only thing that does is crashing the browser. There must be a way to fully implement the patch without tampering with the about:config... Do you have any suggestion @roytam1? Your opinion would be very helpful to me.

Now locked. Removed. Kept (to help keep growing this already hyperginormous thread, of course!)... and because it's the right place... despite being yestermonth's (and some days) news.
