  1. Avoid Google Translate and use DeepL, instead: the result will be much better understandable text. My 2¢ only, of course.

  2. well come back next month in December and ask that original question again, Vistapocalypse. just manually downloaded & ran the recent mpam-feX64.exe file (11/6) from one of my Win7 machines running MSE 4.10.209 to update the definition files - still not getting any EOL nags from MSE. only either the KB4493132 or KB4524752 updates for Win7 are showing the EOL nags but no EOL notifications within the MSE app

  3. forget about that, Paul75. the chances of MS actually listening to you & others after opening a support case are slim to none when using Office 2010 on XP. and MS will be ending support for all Office 2010 editions next year on October 2020: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/office-2010-end-support-roadmap so I doubt MS will ever fix the Office 2010 MSO.DLL problems for XP/2003 as Office 2010 will be EOL in less than a year from now

  4. I'm no expert on this (understatement ) but as I understand it those GAC (Global Assembly Cache) files are shared by other programs so should not be messed with. You need specific administrator permission not just admin rights to delete/add/edit those system files so it is best to leave them well alone. If they're not doing any harm then forget about them. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/app-domains/gac

  5. I made a video guide on how to do so if you're interested in that:

  6. Yes, this is very sad news. But thanks to this thread and amazing people who write here, I think we will always have a chance, that Python 3.7 will be functional under XP. JFYI, FontForge has a newer version, based on Python 3.7.4. All the problems that I have mentioned above are also relevant to it. For my experiments I choose not the latest version, based on Python 2.7.16 , because it is little easier to adapt under XP.

  7. Pay attention though, my friends, the UOC Patch is not compatible with Firefox Quantum (I just call it that way to distinguish it from the "Classic" Firefox) and I do not plan to port the Patch to that browser, ever.

  8. @-SnooPY-: Python 2.7.17 has been recently released: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2717/ So, whenever it's out, v2.7.18 will be the EoL/EoS Python 2.7 release...

  9. Thanks for checking it out. I'll test the newest version this evening. On a somewhat unrelated note, Firefox Quantum appears to be capable of leveraging WebGL on almost any GPU, regardless of DirectX version support (it uses OpenGL when a DX11 GPU is not present). Under Windows 7, I can achieve silky smooth scrolling, and even 720p video playback with a Pentium 4 670, and a 32MB Radeon 7500. I've tested this on a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 as well, and observed the similar results.

  10. > I don't hate everything about Google; I still use their search engine (albeit via Startpage.com). Startpage.com gives me a "No cypher overlap" error. Google.com doesn't, but requires a FF2 UA to be usable! > They say reCaptchas also let you pass without any probs in other browsers if you're logged into a Google account... This summer Google invalidated old login cookies and updated their login JS, so it is no longer possible to login on FF2. So while I still use SM2.0.14 90% of the time, I continue working on making Roy's browsers more usable on 9x/ME via KernelEx (KG74 is currently the only way I can upload MSFN.org attachments from home!).

  11. Here I have the compilation of files at the moment that I was able to rescue from Windows Update v4, I think I don't even have half but at least it's a breakthrough. ALPHA VERSION 1.0 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1X-CCTARVFjV9BBnMziqsq-PN45vsl4YK Remember to extract it with 7zip, the file is supercompressed to -2MB, if you have no errors
