To prevent user confusion, I strongly recommend disregarding the tutorials and contacting me directly instead about the extended kernel. The original post was removed as it was continuing to confuse users. There will be further discussion about the evolution of the extended kernel in the coming pages.

not really for mozilla related products. there is a list to check if required runtime files are in same directory as xul.dll when starting up.

Re: Notepad++ I personally use PORTABLE software pretty much exclusively. My version-of-choice when it comes to Notepad++ is version 6.8.8. It's not only the first version to color-code .rdf and .xul, but I monitor installer size and it's among the SMALLEST .paf.exe versions by a very wide margin.

Okay, thank you so much for all of the help. I'll give this a shot soon and see if I can get things working.

Thank you for the GitHub page, it was extremely useful in changing some other settings I was looking for. I was unable to find the setting to remove the white layer, despite coming across two that looked relevant: /css/toolbars/menubar_fog_hidden.css /css/toolbars/general_toolbar_colors_aeroglass_windows10_glass8.css I'm not really sure if there are other flags that need to be changed as well or if I am just missing something.

Shouldn't be a problem if all VC++ redists from 2005 - 2019 are installed. I do it so i don't have duplicates and for such libraries, it doesn't make sense that each application has its own copies as they're supposed to be shared resource.
