In relation to the post made by @dmiranda on page 11 on AF's 360EE version shared (I am lazy to link the exact comment), I've made a little BAT file to execute the browser (it has to be on the same folder as the "360chrome.exe" file to work). Due to all the files this browser makes I thought it would be a good idea to write this kind of script to remove files after browser execution (it also removes 2 registry entries that the browser creates when executed, they can be seen at the end of the code). I tested it a little so I don't know if any files I set to be deleted are actually important. Some of you might already know which files are preferrable to be deleted so if you want to share which can be, then, that would be great (as well as registry entries created by the browser). I set it up so in case you run the browser with a custom profile folder you just change the "profile" variable to whatever that profile is. To avoid the CMD window poping on screen everytime you run it you can follow these steps (post #5) (the CMD window will still exist but minimized by default) Cheers. @echo off :: ======================================= :: run "360chrome.exe" file with arguments :: ======================================= 360chrome.exe --disable-component-update :: ======================================================= :: files and folders to be deleted after browser execution :: ======================================================= cd ".\User Data" :: folders rmdir "ShaderCache" /S /Q rmdir "Webstore Downloads" /S /Q rmdir "temp" /S /Q rmdir "PnaclTranslationCache" /S /Q :: files del *.log del mconfig :: Set "profile" folder set profile=Default :: Inside "profile" folder profile del "%profile%\*.tmp" del "%profile%\*.ldb" del "%profile%\*.log" del "%profile%\360Bookmarks" del "%profile%\Google Profile.ico" del "%profile%\heavy_ad_intervention_opt_out.db" del "%profile%\*-journal" del "%profile%\LOCK" del "%profile%\LOG*" del "%profile%\MANIFEST*" del "%profile%\README" del "%profile%\Secure Preferences" del "%profile%\Shortcuts" del "%profile%\Sync360_V8.sqlite3" del "%profile%\TransportSecurity" del "%profile%\Visited Links" del "%profile%\Web Data" del "%profile%\CURRENT" del "%profile%\Network Action Predictor" del "%profile%\Network Persistent State" del "%profile%\QuotaManager" del "%profile%\Top Sites" del "%profile%\previews_opt_out.db" del "%profile%\History Provider Cache" rmdir "%profile%\AutofillStrikeDatabase" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\blob_storage" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\DailyBackup" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\data_reduction_proxy_leveldb" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\databases" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Extension Rules" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Extension State" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Feature Engagement Tracker" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\File System" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\GPUCache" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\IndexedDB" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Platform Notifications" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Service Worker" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\shared_proto_db" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Site Characteristics Database" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\VideoDecodeStats" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Extensions\Temp" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Session Storage" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Download Service" /S /Q rmdir "%profile%\Thumbnails" /S /Q :: ====================================================== :: Registry entries to be deleted after browser execution :: ====================================================== reg delete "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\360" /f reg delete "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\360Chrome" /f

yes merry Christmas to all the great moderators of this forum!

Merry Christmas to MSFN moderators as well - @Dave-H@Tommy@Tripredacus

next weekend here is christmas! and I want to wish everyone on here a merry christmas to all my friends here! @msfntor @mina7601 @XPerceniol and to everyone else on here! (I will be on break from the forum from Dec 25 to 31 in celebration of christmas-newyears)

A gift for everyone from the heart - you are like extended family :~))))

The error code that produces the message associated with the logon procedure failure can come from a wide variety of functions; when I was using a Kaby Lake laptop I tried to debug it. But debuggers would fail to run! So I would have to return to the laptop, change every reference to the error code in ntdll/kernel32 (and a few other lower level DLLs) so each one returns a unique error code (so one function would return a message associated with error code 85, the next would return one associated with 86) to identify what exactly is failing in there. Unfortunately the build quality of the laptop is very poor so it cannot be moved easily, as it can't be closed without risking the screen snapping off (and thus it's not where I actually live). You can't dictate what any user can or cannot do. The latter two are focused on Windows XP anyway and there is no telling how successful the HAL wrapper will be. But if it is, it will give me more flexibility in modernizing parts of the kernel.

I also changed my mind and decided to stay, as well.

Moi feeling a bit peckish ... I love JimKwik's egg analogy: "Your life is like an egg. If it's broken by an outside force, life ends. BUT if it's broken by an inside force ... life begins. Great things begin on the inside." I like eggs.

Hi... I want to sleep, the night starts here... we hope to see each other tomorrow, bye! Before all, greetings for our freshly recovered @XPerceniol, for you @xpw10, Merry Christmas!...

and to @XPerceniol I hope you have a wonderfully Christmas this year to!

To you too legacyfan, and to ALL our friends here! A Merry Christmas! We Wish You a Merry Christmas with Lyrics

Yeah, doing fine here.

Typos are normal at your age. All is normal at your age, I've been there. You will live for a long time, @XPerceniol my friend.

We now have a very special section for super funny jokes like this one. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184217-welcome-to-joke-central-the-lol-corner-of-the-forum/

Drivers may be a problem, however it being UEFI isn't. Win7 will work fine on UEFI without any tricks. Unless you count imaging the disk as a trick. I haven't used Setup to install Win7 in years now I think.

I run only on-demands anti-virus (Malwarebytes and Quick Heal)

...and check Detox topic maybe? Mina, legacyfan and others too, to make your inputs? "Thank you so much for all your support."..

Regarding "dark mode" - there has been progress made towards releasing a "dark version". BUT there is no solution as of yet for what is referred to as "FOUC" and the default white "about:blank" page that displays for a split second before the dark mode .css is applied. Regarding imdb - please detail what is not working on imdb as I just visited several imdb pages and everything seems to be working. Is it WebRTC? DRM? WebGL? JS WASM? 3 of 4 are disabled intentionally, I've never looked into DRM. But yes, it is true, this is based on a 2020 rendering engine and there will be 2022 "bleeding edge of technology" javascript functions that will not work on a 2020 rendering engine. All of us on XP must decide for ourselves if the 2022 javascript functions on the "bleeding edge of technology" are really important enough to warrant migrating from XP.

He meant it as a joke. xD

Not gonna solve any issues (probably), but this fresh upload has some interestng tips and trivia for YT - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKOkCpMZ3Z0

this is a thread dedicated to finding a way to make the forum less (facebook like) and is the place where you can discuss anything about what you think should change related to posting and liking so if anyone has any idea on how to change this please feel free to say so

I liked this very much, too. Good to see you again :)

Good night. See ya!

[ Ooops ... I got caught stalking everybody on Sunday ] Hello stranger Xperceniol! I thought you had abandoned us for good. I then saw you and msfntor at the other forum. I was wondering what you were up to. I came back here because the other day someone else was having a similar issue I had on a Dell Latitude (which has been driving me insane). I can install any OS except the two I want (XP and Windows10). Just now, I have installed Windows 8.10 on it instead. Life is tough. Oh well we can't always have what we want. Merry Christmas!

Something to do with handling of local / session storage (https://app.bountysource.com/issues/94137785-discussion-dom-storage-next_gen).

You of all folks should know I don't use any of these. It was only the partially working dark theme I was answering about.

AFAIK the Surface Go is a Class-3 UEFI: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-8.1-and-8/hh824898(v=win.10)?redirectedfrom=MSDN And - still AFAIK - UefiSeven or similar is needed on such hardware: https://www.sevenforums.com/installation-setup/426914-installing-win-7-pro-sp1-uefi-class-3-gen-10-laptop.html https://github.com/manatails/uefiseven I consider that "a trick". jaclaz

Thank you, merry christmas to you too!

Eternal cookie for you. Banner cookie here: https://twitter.com/Eternal_Cookie LOL just kidding!

^Hi there @xpw10 ... are you ok? Just noticed you visited my profiles on Sunday and I was already thinking about you as you've vanished from here. EDIT: Oops sorry meant to tag another member - was asking about @xpw10 - as I've been in touch with you, @msfntor I hope everyone is doing well today on Friday.

Well, ok. But what I meant to say is that @msfntor is running XP, so, squares are expected to display for him instead of emojis when he uses Chrome forks (or Chrome itself) to browse instead of Firefox forks (or Firefox itself). I wasn't meaning to ruin the joke though, lol.

Both HCKU & HKLM registry policies generate "Managed by organization" message which in turn disables features like "Secure DNS" So does anyone managed to suppress "Upgrade to Windows 10" nag and also removed "Managed by organization" message?

Yes, welcome back!

For the dark page rendering use these flags : --enable-features=WebContentsForceDark --force-dark-mode The last one is for the UI in "normal" chrome. But it will not help with the most modern websites, for example imdb. Why ? because the engine of this browser is outdated, yeah , sorry to say it. But if use thee same flags with, say chrome 102 - it will render them dark. About the UI of this chinese one, its' for the author to answer.

welcome back @XPerceniol we all missed you so much! Its Great to have you back!

The way I see it, doesn't hurt to remind !

And I have a feeling when someone simply doesn't know what to answer, they just switching the subject. I'm not sure why you felt like a dead horse , lol. Anyways, I'm sorry you felt like a dead horse . And your poor head, geez.

I mean, you made a good decision, which is, continuing to stay, and I'm impressed!

XPerceniol, whom I never doubt

Now that's my hero!

Love your new thread -Sal

"Scary Movie" is not classified as horror but as comedy.

Agreed. Internal connections do not concern me. Mozilla does them. Chromium does them. I don't know how to "thwart" the exaggerations often posted regarding 360Chrome without some sort of "redirection" for a more "fair" comparison/analysis. We are not all going to agree and we are all going to have a little bit of bias towards what "works for us" on our own computers. I just seek a more "level playing field" then what has happened in this thread of late. And, admittedly, I don't know HOW to get that "level playing field". I felt like a "dead horse" being beaten over the head with a baseball bat the way this thread derailed so abruptly. My head is still spinning! I kind of have to narrow it down to this - I can pay my water bill and transfer between cheking and savings on my XP computers with and only with 360Chrome v13/v13.5 (for how much longer is anybody's guess). Other users migrate to this thread for very similar reasons and this project has a "need". It is not going to be for everyone. Having "options" is supposed to be a good thing.

It's from Scary Movie.

That's awesome! Now tell me, what do you think of the gif?

360EE 11.0 has the same problem,may be the Chromium kernerl version was too old

should be fixed

Indeed, light GUI doesn't help if videos don't play smoothly. I'm a minority with my 8 years old smartphone, but in my case it's h.264. I think most mobile users access it via dedicated app, though it probably doesn't make a difference by default, compared to the mobile website. From a bit of searching, selected codec is device dependent. It wouldn't surprise me if AV1 is picking on steam (wasn't sure how to put it, hopefully it's understandable) on smartphones since saving bandwidth is one of the key characteristics and you usually don't have unlimited data through mobile carrier. Also considering the short time most people keep their smartphone for. https://bitmovin.com/av1-playback-support/ The thing with browsers forked from older Firefox, at least Pale Moon or more accurately UXP platform, AV1 support is disabled by default, but even if you enable it, it won't work on YouTube, though it may work on other sites (I only remember encountering test site to test AV1 support). I believe not working on YouTube is the result of the browser not doing something that mainstream browsers do and I seem to remember reading Pale Moon folks disabled it due to other more problematic issues related to it (would have to dig out that thread on their forum to know the specifics). Same, but it's also important to look at the platform (UXP), upon which application (Pale Moon) is built, The whole thing was forked off Firefox version that is indeed old, but there was some work put into it so the resulting browser is not old, looking at the age at least and it does things these days old Firefox didn't. It's just not enough for a number of messy websites. If you want an extreme example...Links...not old, but good luck using it in practice. Best case you get a readable site with images and messed up layout. Bonus points if you can do some interaction. I've read you can actually post on this forum with it.

Sounds wonderful ! Delicious food ... fresh air ... this is the life.
