@Egorkaru No need to spam this forum topic. It is possible to convert themes from the Mozilla addons site to Serpent 52/Basilisk format, but it will not be easily possible to make them installable directly without converting them first as they are in WebExtension format. New Firefox themes are essentially just personas. In this Pale Moon Forum topic jobbautista9 provides an example of a theme from the Mozilla addons site that he converted into a persona. If someone is interested in the conversion process, it would be useful to review his converted persona and compare the source code of his persona to the same theme on the Mozilla addons site. You'll see in my comment on that topic I provided a link to an old version of the Mozilla addons site on archive.org that has some older themes archived. Some of those themes will install on Serpent 52 and Basilisk.

You really need to stop doing this! This type of impatience is very likely grounds for getting yourself banned from MSFN. Roytam only releases his browsers once per week and you have five requests in three days all for the same issue!

@Egorkaru Your issue is very special, and a solution does not necessarily benefit the general public. Moreover, the tone makes the music. Your error spam here is rather impolite and counterproductive. One polite request is always enough.

Hello @basilisk-dev, just a big Thank you (at this place) for still providing a version of Basilisk for Linux too! Grabbed the tarball recently from here, unpacked it on my debian partition, simply dragged the profile folder from Win-XP and everthing worked well an familiarly! My main and reliable browser: on XP, on Win7 and on Linux - very nice!

JFX, Now firstlogon.cmd starts normally via Win7-11-Select.xml. Thank you. And in general, thank you for such a wonderful program.

SMPlayer.22.7.0-qt5.6-Port.7z can use yt-dlp.exe by @nicolaasjan. The subdir \mpv\ contains MPV NT6, you can delete all the contents and copy yt-dlp.exe there. In the same subdir create yt-dlp.conf: --no-check-certificates #Suppress HTTPS certificate validation. MPV 10.2015 in WinXP can use yt-dlp.exe by @nicolaasjan renamed youtube-dl.exe <https://web.archive.org/web/20160610143950/https:/mpv.srsfckn.biz/> In the dir of MPV.exe I created a subdir \portable_config\, and in it I placed fonts.conf already in the package, and created mvp.conf: ytdl-format=720p/best ytdl-raw-options=no-check-certificates= ------------ youtube-dl.exe (yt-dlp.exe) when launched from MPV does not read its own configuration files (yt-dlp.conf), you can only pass parameters from MPV via ytdl-raw-options= SMPlayer.exe and MPV.exe can also be started by @roytam1 browsers with "Open With" or "mpv-youtube-dl-binding," as already indicated by others: ----------- IXOYE - 2023 January 13 I use "mpv-youtube-dl-binding" plug-in on NM28/S52: <https://web.archive.org/web/20160610143950/https:/mpv.srsfckn.biz/> <https://repo.hyperbola.info:50000/other/iceweasel-uxp/addons/mpv-youtube-dl-binding/watch_with_mpv-0.1.0-alpha.4-fx.xpi> nicolaasjan - 2023 Jan 13 In New Moon you can use the "Open With" extension to download videos or audio straight from the browsers right click menu: <https://ca-archive.us.to/storage/11/11097/open_with-6.8.6-fx+sm+tb.xpi> In my system VLC is less effective than SMPLayer and MPV for streaming Greetings

... Just a small FYI: St52 (unlike official Basilisk) has kept Fx52-level WebExtension support, so a WE Mozilla "theme" (a "persona" in WE format) will actually install (and appear inside "Extensions", not "Themes"), but will not visually apply...

Using a unattend.xml, you can launch programs, just before desktop icons and taskbar appears. WinNTSetup's tweaks are limited, but FirstLogonCommands do run with admin rights, so you can do any customization in these scripts.

the pac file is inaccessible outside russia, so it is not possible to test. and since Serpent and NewMoon share same network/proxy code, there is no reason that works on Serpent but not on NewMoon. You should ask Basilisk team if they have such intention to do so. this is a WONTFIX here. you can download xpi and change minimum version to 28 and install.

Firefox is my main browser. It was formerly Pale Moon, but the bloated web started to take its toll and some websites refused to work properly. In many respects, Google Chrome has become the new Internet Explorer and it isn't hard to come across a website that only properly works under Chrome. I refuse to be subjected to Google's spyware where possible, however, so I only use it when absolutely necessary (and specifically - Ungoogled Chromium, at that). Firefox is far from perfect. Their Quantum update and rebrand seemed to have been done in an attempt of attracting Chrome users while in reality only serving to alienate their existing user base. Firefox simply can't compete with Google's monopoly over the web. It will never be the fastest browser (many suspect non-Chrome browsers are purposefully throttled on sites such as YouTube), but it was at one point the clear winner in terms of features and customization. I could go on, but you probably get the idea. With that being said, my wishful hope is that Mozilla understands the importance of keeping Windows 7 & 8 support. I couldn't possibly know what their usage statistics on those operating systems say or what exactly their ultimatum will be for eventually ending support, but I hope it's pushed back as far as possible. For those of us left on Windows 7 & 8, likely disillusioned with Microsoft's current direction, it's only going to get more difficult. Undoubtedly, there will be unofficial browsers (as there have been already) but having official support is still quite important.

Good, selective quote. So also: never redundantly quote the previous post in its entirety. Be selective, or simply respond without quoting.

https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/refs/tags/86.0.4240.99:services/device/wake_lock/power_save_blocker/power_save_blocker_win.cc Guess this was not properly adapted for case of missing APIs on older OS. Calling JavaScript code is lied to that the request was fulfilled, but effectively does nothing.

It is already removed. There is nothing to decide.
