Rule 1b clearly states - "Respect the requests of companies who do not permit redistribution of their products without express permission - including unmodified hotfix/feature pack packages. Download sources for official software should be from the vendor directly where possible. Posts made containing this type of content may be removed immediately without warning, and offenders may be banned on first violation." As you clearly don't care about the rules here, I would remind you that you could be banned for this. Consider this a public warning. Further infringements will not be tolerated.

You would only need to copy these files over - en-us.pak (in the locales sub-folder) iframe.srx (in the skin sub-folder) en_skin.srx (in the skin sub-folder) chrome.dll (in the root folder - you will need to select from the translation enabled/disabled version for which translation option you prefer) resources.pak (in the root folder - you will need to select from the regular or ungoogled version for which option you prefer) options.zip (in the root folder) [not 100% if this one was changed since uploading rebuild-7] 360loader.ini (in main folder - you will need to select from the webgl enabled/disabled version for which option you prefer) [there are a few chrome://flags to change also but only if your GPU is blacklisted from WebGL or other WebGL issues] You will need to add these files - libegl.dll (root folder) libglesv2.dll (root folder) libegl.dll (swiftshader sub-folder) libglesv2.dll (swiftshader sub-folder)

That's for the advice. Now they use half the ram.

True, true. I'm just sharing my experience for those who may not have used it before. Might be helpful for someone, Idk!

you may revert to previous build or wait for next build

This is the same question as this one.

well if it's a virtual system I could not care less about it being ''untouched without anything integrated in it.''

Sorry for the offtopic, but why does it take ages to download the extended kernel or anything else from blackwingcat's site? The speed is a dozen kbps regardless of the link.

Because Windows 10 has its own emojis system.

Thx for letting me know. Changed my OP just now.

Yes, but it's not everyone's desire to use a customized Windows XP installation. I personally prefer using Windows XP Pro SP3 untouched without anything integrated in it.

Hey! So after a few days of pulling my hair out, I instead decided to reformat and install a certain other Windows XP 'edition'. The difference is night and day, I mean wow. Panda installed the first time without a hitch, and I don't have to worry about installing updates at all now. As I believe Astroskipper had suggested, I went ahead and got Panda & MWAV both. And the AIO's for VC++ and .NET that Milkinis linked to were integrated in already! Highly recommend.

The archive requires a password, located here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/175170-root-certificates-and-revoked-certificates-for-windows-xp/#comments

And the results are misleading. It "thinks" I am allowing three inline scripts but my Proxomitron replaces them with "dummy scripts" instead of outright "blocking them". This enables me to block "first-party" scripts based on content instead of blocking 'all' "first-party" scripts.

Correct, links are down for rebuild 7 due to space needed for rebuild 8 -- https://msfn.org/board/topic/184515-arcticfoxienotheretoplaygames-360chrome-v1351030-rebuild-8/ I will upload ALL versions one of these days to Internet Archive (including past v11, v12, and v13 builds). Unsure when I will be able to do that.

Your chrome.dll file needs "rebased". If you upload your chrome.dll and provide a link to that upload, I will "rebase" it for you and send it back to you.

The DIRECT download link to the off-line installer is http://acs.pandasoftware.com/Panda/FREEAV/193309/FREEAV.exe This is indeed of file version 15.14.5.0, it's DUAL-SIGNED on 2022/12/18, but its filesize here comes at only 73.9 MiB (77.535.680 bytes) ... Edit: @Milkinis: Please, refrain from providing third-party download links; "lo4d.com" are not affiliated themselves with PANDA ; the link I posted above has been extracted from PANDA's official on-line (aka "stub") installer... FWIW: Forums rule 1.b:

Just wondering which antivirus xp users here like & use. Thank you.

well some old versions of ms store are compatible with ltsb 2015 & 2016: https://github.com/kkkgo/LTSB-Add-MicrosoftStore it's just that newer versions of ms store will only work with ltsc 2019, ltsc 2021 & newer at least ltsb 2016 v1607 gets support until Oct. 2026

btw, windows server 2019 is based on version 1809 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/get-started/windows-server-release-info and i'm using w10 ltsc 2019 which is also based on 1809

Working here.

BTW, to mention here tests of recent Bitdefender and Avast versions is absurd and not helpful at all. Both have not supported Windows XP for a long time. The last, XP-compatible version of Avast, for example, is from 2018. Anyway! This thread is about antivirus or security programs that still target the Windows XP operating system.

if you run XP from a virtual machine or it's not your primary system that's the best turnaround for most users @Ryder252 that way you don't bother downloading updates the NET framework AIO is safe to use though

Have Windows XP SP2 x86 (32 bit)

I don't understand this.

its also pirated I think which is against the forum rules to talk about things like that on here. No Illegal/Copyrighted Software Discussion 1.a This is not a warez site! Links/Requests to warez and/or illegal material (e.g., cracks, serials, etc.) will not be tolerated. Discussion of circumventing WGA/activation/timebombs/license restrictions, use of keygens, or any other illegal activity, including, but not limited to, requests for help where pirated software is being used or being discussed, will also not be tolerated.

I have non-googled rebuild-7. Can I just copy over the new files from rebuild-8 without losing settings and extensions? What files/folders would I need to replace?

Greetings. Python 3.9.0 at real WinXP 368/14/43 tests currently passed/failed/skipped ('python -m test') I know that at least Streamlink 5.3.1 work fine. Most of "C extensions" currently incompatible with my preferred "AthlonXP 2000+" due to lack of SSE2 support :-(. That's why I'm forced to collect them by myself... Best regards.

Yeah man for sure. Tbh I would've preferred using an untouched installation, but in my case for whatever reason .NET just wouldn't play nice🤷‍♂️

I like BRAVE because it's against intrusive advertising whereas other browsers don't allow me to install ublock origin or alike. thanks for the advise I will check it out later on.

BTW @Milkinis thx alot for those links! Didn't even know those existed.

Hmm, uBlock is enough, you do NOT need another privacy badger... I don't have this other cumbersome Privacy Badger, and my score is 97% easily (not 100% here, because in uBlock's "Filter Lists" I just didn't check the "Parse and enforce cosmetic filters" box, not wanting to make uBlock too heavy already...) so deny, disable all other missing privacy eating links (on this TEST d3ward page) in uBlock, and this way get your 97% or 100%, like here... this test has too much advertising... Extensions to see: HTTP Header Modifier: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/header自定义工具/maaccnhcoaehdeehahenkmchinbdjjmi?hl=en-US then Fingerprint Spoofing: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fingerprint-spoofing/ljdekjlhpjggcjblfgpijbkmpihjfkni?hl=en-US and Random User-Agent Switcher: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/random-user-agent-switche/einpaelgookohagofgnnkcfjbkkgepnp?hl=en-US In the first one only notch 1 and 3 (write nothing under window), in the second notch all except webrtc (because they don't match if for example uBlock has the notch under "Prevent WebRTC from leaking..."), the third one just use as it is, it will randomly switch your user agent. Very light extensions, compared to the too claimed other Ghostery or Privacy Badgers... But you can also not download these extensions, and your browser would be happy too... because privacy doesn't exist (for our sake...). Look at the results with: https://whoer.net/fr then https://tools.iplocation.net/proxy-check and https://webbrowsertools.com/test-webrtc-leak/

Cool! With some tweaking to my Proxomitron config, I bet I could hit 100%

Media foundation update fixes youtube videos in firefox but breaks Windows Media Player and also other media-dependent programs, and the update cannot be redirected locally.

Calendar Flyout is a solution.

Sorry for late response, I have been testing Live Tiles feature to answer. Start11 does not replicate Live Tiles. If the speech is about Explorer Patcher, then the answer is "Yes and no". Explorer Patcher enables Windows 10 Live Tiles feature; however, since Microsoft removed Live Tiles from Windows 11, the application manager in most cases does not enable Live Tiles for installed applications. For the Weather app, which has not been yet fully updated and still has Live Tiles, you may see weird behaviour in Windows 10 start menu.

That's because if you download from the Chrome Store, then you have a browser that enables a persistent cookie and yes, that cookie does send data back without requesting permission. If you use any browser that mimmicks Ungoogled Chromium, then this data link is disabled and now you have to manually create that data link. No privacy-conscious consumer should ever use any non-ungoogled Chromium fork, in my humble opinion.

This works as long as you can get Java 8+ on your machine, and have a browser modern enough to render the Microsoft login page. https://github.com/olauncher/olauncher

Yes, thats's exactly why i think the GM108 based MX130 should run (after extension of .inf)... and btw: no risk no fun

... The Release Notes for your preferred version 1.26.2 clearly state that no code changes exist between it and previous version 1.26.0; the whole purpose served by that .2 release was to address an Easylist-related fonts issue, affecting ONLY Firefox, not Chromium-based forks... You can safely use the .crx file of v1.26.0 hosted on crx4chrome and be done with; it doesn't need "developer mode" enabled and it's just an archive of the very same file as it was available in CWS... Life is hard as it is, one need not make it even harder ... Regards

Hmmm. How do you know that OP (from Korea) speaks Japanese? jaclaz

https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/chromepass.html chrome stored passwords can be retrieved with this little free portable utility.

For me its 2008 R2 because of nostalgia and such things

Ha, the one I'm writing from now has only 2 GB of RAM minus 256 MB taken for video RAM. The other machine I have has 4 GB. Work laptop has 12 GB, but that doesn't count since it belongs to the company. On-topic, there's also Product Key Scanner by Nir Sofer.

I've had the impression over the years that there's less interest for theme making. I guess frequent updates could be a discouraging factor. Interestingly, using Win11 RTM based visual style file doesn't seem to be causing apparent issues on Win10 versions down to 1809. Edit: I forgot, there is another forum focused on such themes - Virtual Customs, maybe you can dig up something there.

Does anyone here have any experience with anything Apple? I don't.

You still getting it toooo wrong. I said I'm using Firefox, and is it Eastern? No! LOOK IT'S WESTERN! Seriously, what makes you think Turks don't like west? We have many people who wants to go and live in the west, thanks to Mr. President who made our country miserable. But let's stop talking about that here, this is not the right place to discuss that. You mentioned that I've used some foul language, yet that comes from someone can't spell "convenient": If you point out my mistakes, then I'll do the same to you - there's nothing odd here. Go and (try to) humiliate Turkish somewhere else - this is not the place where you can do it (directly or indirectly, you literally said "Haha, you guys don't even have your own browser/OS and you dare to dislike others' stuff!").

I would imagine that “proper updates” are basically Internet Explorer 11. If IE does not support TLS 1.2, then your OS does not support TLS 1.2. A joke at Vista’s expense? I never used OneDrive, but Vista users at MSFN have known how to add TLS 1.2 support for a long time: https://msfn.org/board/topic/176902-enabling-tls-1112-support-in-vistas-internet-explorer-9/.
