semi-OT: finally got my firefox55norust creating working build, by specifying `--disable-sandbox' switch in .mozconfig. maybe finally I can revert all XP+ only commits and creating a working XP 56-ish build.

don't know if that will fix it, I'll try to revert https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/e50e93c too see.

While the stable version remains based on Chromium 69, a new build of the Chromium 78-based version (12.0.1010) has been released: http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1991554.html I don't think we'll need it if Serpent Quantum "56-ish" comes to fruition though.

@roytam1: can you please kindly fix that?

Five updates offered today - Security Update for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB4484193) 32-Bit Edition Security Update for Microsoft Excel 2010 (KB4484196) 32-Bit Edition Security Update for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB4484192) 32-Bit Edition Security Update for Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 (KB4461613) 32-Bit Edition Security Update for Microsoft Word 2010 (KB4475601) 32-Bit Edition Tried Microsoft Update, fearing the worst after last month, and was amazed when they all worked! All seems to be OK, so presumably no MSO.DLL replacement this time. I guess last month's signing problem must have been a one-off glitch, at least I hope so!

@VistaLover FTDeepDark v14.3 > this is what need, thanks a lot!

It sure would make for a precious Christmas gift, BigMuscle. At the same time, I don't want you to feel stressed out due to pressure. If there's anything we can do to help, please let us know, thanks in advance, and we appreciate the difference you have made in making Windows 10's user interface FAR, FAR MORE enjoyable of an experience for countless individuals around the world. I mean that. It just wouldn't be the same without your work, BigMuscle. I hope you are well, good day.

A reddit user has posted his custom Python 3.5 binaries intended for Windows XP. The download can be found at https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwiHllHhj79zaF9faEVsQUsxNDQ As he has not provided an installer I have written this little reg file to provide some of the registry settings one would expect with an official msi installer. It includes associating file types with Python, installation of wheels by double clicking .whl files, the Python path, and the install path. It has been written for an installation at C:\Python35 and needs to be edited if you want to install Python elsewhere. ideally you would use a batch file with the reg command because then you include variables like %SYSTEMROOT% in paths. I have installed this version of Python on my XP machine, and so far everything has gone swimmingly. I ran get-pip.py and the latest versions of pip, wheels, and setup tools were installed with no errors. I have also installed requests2 as a Python wheel and that went OK too. I have been experimenting with this Python as a means to download videos, and despite only succeeding in downloading one video using urllib and requests I have concluded that it is a useful addition to my toolbox and shall keep it on my hard drive According to the developer "zipimport and many 3rd party c extensions don't work on Windows XP now" Requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Python 3.5.reg
