becky 2.81 does not work. api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-l1-2-0.dll is windows 10 runtime. It should not exist in Win2000. You should use 2.74. ngen.exe error means exkernel try to patch for TLS 1.1/1.2 . If you dont install .net 4.0 you can ignore it.2 points

the best options i think is : you can download net Framework 3.5/4.0 from wlu site : http://www.win2k.org/wlu/wluen.htm Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0 for Extended Kernel(v2) Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0.3 Roll update(v2a+TLS 1.2support) since 2014 Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0.3 Roll update since 2014 please install the latest extended kernel it is more better and has more api's than it's previous version try to install the latest extended kernel and net framework and maybe it maybe will added to system32 folder if @blackwingcat add it.2 points

... Thanks for the confirmation! Can't replicate. Maybe 2023-07-70 was updated? I downloaded just today, after word the about:addons thingie was working. @dmiranda! The download dialogue window in Serpent 52 looks broken from time to time. Here are two screenshots to show you the issue: One time as usual: The next time broken: Cheers, AstroSkipper2 points

It happens only in my fresh profile of Serpent 52. In my main profile, Classic Theme Restorer and Download Manager S3 are installed. No such issues there!2 points

As I already wrote in my previous post, I use the latest version of Serpent 52. I didn't notice any problems with the built-in download manager. All downloaded files are shown in the list correctly, but the download dialogue window looks broken from time to time as yours above. One time as usual, the next time broken. Very strange! Anyway! You can try the extension Download Manager S3 4.13! It changes the view completely.2 points

Extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers – Corrections, modifications, adjustments, and special recommendations I am a fan of extensions and custom buttons. That is one of the reasons I already created the thread “Mypal 68 in Windows XP – Custom Buttons and Extensions”. This thread here is a place where I will post about our beloved, legacy extensions and custom buttons for the UXP browsers such as New Moon 28, Serpent 52 and so on. The purpose of this thread is to easily find corrected, modified, adjusted, or highly recommended extensions and furthermore, custom buttons, too. I couldn't find any thread here on MSFN dedicated to extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers. The threads “My Browser Builds (Part 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)” are too extensive and confusing to find information about this stuff, although there are also posts about them. Moreover, these threads are dedicated to the browsers themselves and not to their extensions, and certainly not to custom buttons. Everyone is invited to post their own corrected, modified, adapted, or highly recommended extensions or custom buttons here. The main idea is to enhance the functionality of our beloved, legacy browsers and ensure that this remains the case in the future. In the second post of this thread, the reader will find an alphabetical list of all posted extensions. In the third post, the reader will find an alphabetical list of all posted custom buttons and additionally right behind, an alphabetical list of all posted tips, special scripts and plugins. All entries of the provided lists are linked to their contributions here in this thread. Last not least, some additional sources where legacy extensions and custom buttons can be found: Pale Moon Add-ons - Extensions – Link: https://addons.palemoon.org/extensions/ Basilisk Add-ons - Extensions – Link: https://addons.basilisk-browser.org/extensions/ Classic Add-ons Archive – This catalogue contains 93,598 versions of 19,450 Firefox add-ons created by 14,274 developers over the past 15 years using XUL/XPCOM technology.

Pretty much what the topic says, I was able to get Injustice 2 {2018} up and running, after I figured out how to install these new video drivers, I have to admit, it was not easy to find any help topics about nVidia, the search showed only bizarre results. https://msfn.org/board/topic/183688-breakthrough-new-nvidia-drivers-ported-to-vista-tutorial/ But no sound, no matter what I do.

Good to know. May do that when the times comes and projects require it. (I use KernelEx tricks sometimes, but I find them a solution of last resort. It makes the kernelEx-ed software XP only, the software crashes when starting them from Windows 7 in a multiboot)1 point

E-cores off/on, wouldn't matter. Did you read the description for those "E-cores"? Vista bug is due to the internal timers. Hence some services are delayed or don't start at all.1 point

This error message is appear when the extended kernel is not installed yet 🥲 Means Windows2000-KB935839-v31aM-x86-ENU.wlu not successfully installed , because there are is not a valid 32 application message and the missing function in iphlpapi.dll . The Windows2000-KB935839-v31aM-x86-ENU should appear in add/remove program , and first windows2000-kb891861-v2-x86-enu should also appear . I advise you when you try , try with latest extedned kernel , the problem which appear to you not due to version of kernelEx , don't forget to restart after any update. And the update v2 should installed first , and then restart then install extended kernel . Extended kernel in his installation should installed in two time means the primary execution extended kernel will install the required update then reboot then you should to execute the extended kernel .wlu again and select the options in window of extended kernel options and install , then reboot1 point

This oddity I had already observed in old Firefox versions. Sometimes, extensions, which had been placed in the browser's folder in browser\extensions subfolder, weren't recognized when starting the browser. Maybe, this issue hasn't been really fixed and is thus still present in all forks. Just an assumption! In my case, I therefore don't place extensions there anymore.1 point

Hello @roytam1! I use Grabit (in the version 32.0) instead of FlashGot in Serpent 52 (basilisk52-g4.8.win32-git-20230708) and in New Moon 28 (palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20230708). Is Grabit affected, too? I have checked both browsers and can't see any problems in terms of broken dialogues. Grabit simply does its job. FYI, Grabit is a fork of FlashGot, but I think you are already aware of this extension. Some minutes ago, I also checked Get'emAll! in New Moon 28 and couldn't observe any broken dialogues, either. Maybe, you could be so kind to describe these errors more detailed to understand what you mean. Thanks in advance!1 point

Welcome to MSFN Saxon! Your profile shows that you are actually running Vista x86, which is my old favorite! You can find an amazing list of software for it, including a much more complete list of Antivirus & Security Software, in the first post of this thread: https://msfn.org/board/topic/175262-last-versions-of-software-for-windows-vista-and-windows-server-2008/1 point

You seem to like putting words in other people's mouths. Unfortunately, you can only fail with that, unless one is a comedian or a clairvoyant. Fifteen months ago, I couldn't care less what was going on with Kaspersky. I didn't and don't use this programme anyway. A few months ago, I wrote about the warning from BSI in the old antivirus thread. And now, I have come to the decision already posted. I'm actually listing all the available security programmes for Windows XP here in this thread, but Kaspersky will definitely not be on my list anymore. No more and no less.1 point

Serpent Tester Tool The extension Serpent Tester Tool allows to install any extension in Basilisk or Serpent, regardless of target application and versions specified in its manifest. Here is a quotation from the homepage of its developer Nebula-Mechanica, who forked Serpent Tester Tool from JustOff's Moon Tester Tool: @VistaLover brought this fork of Moon Tester Tool to my attention. Until then, I was only aware of the Moon Tester Tool extension. I tested it with a few extensions, and it works as expected. Here is the link to the first version 1.0.0 of Serpent Tester Tool: https://github.com/Nebula-Mechanica/serpent-tester-tool/releases/tag/1.0.0 Cheers, AstroSkipper1 point

GeoFlag customized by @AstroSkipper I used the extension FlagFox for a very long time in Firefox 52.9.0 ESR, Pale Moon, New Moon, and Serpent 52. Although this extension was abandoned for the legacy UXP browsers due to the change to the modern web extensions years ago, it could be updated by inserting its most recent database manually. I did that for a very long time. But, since I realized that there is a new extension called GeoFlag, I replaced the old extension FlagFox by this new one in my installation of New Moon 28. As described in my post about the Pale Moon extensions from Realtriple Software https://msfn.org/board/topic/183923-extensions-and-custom-buttons-for-uxp-browsers-corrections-modifications-adjustments-and-special-recommendations/?do=findComment&comment=1226249, the GeoFlag extension has to be modified to work in New Moon 28. It can be made compatible with Serpent 52, too. Here is the modified code of GeoFlag's install.rdf for Serpent 52: <?xml version="1.0"?> <RDF xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:em="http://www.mozilla.org/2004/em-rdf#"> <Description about="urn:mozilla:install-manifest"> <em:name>GeoFlag</em:name> <em:id>{76843B06-C8C5-5088-90C5-679EA2F00123}</em:id> <em:version>31.0</em:version> <em:type>2</em:type> <!-- Pale Moon --> <em:targetApplication> <Description> <em:id>{8de7fcbb-c55c-4fbe-bfc5-fc555c87dbc4}</em:id> <em:minVersion>28.10.0</em:minVersion> <em:maxVersion>31.*</em:maxVersion> </Description> </em:targetApplication> <!-- Basilisk / Iceweasel-UXP / Serpent --> <em:targetApplication> <Description> <em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id> <em:minVersion>52.9.0</em:minVersion> <em:maxVersion>52.9.*</em:maxVersion> </Description> </em:targetApplication> <em:description>Displays a flag depicting the location of the current server</em:description> <em:optionsURL>chrome://geoflag/content/options.xul</em:optionsURL> <em:homepageURL>https://realityripple.com/Software/XUL/GeoFlag/</em:homepageURL> <em:updateURL>https://realityripple.com/Software/XUL/GeoFlag/update.rdf</em:updateURL> <em:iconURL>chrome://geoflag/skin/logo.png</em:iconURL> <em:icon64URL>chrome://geoflag/skin/logo64.png</em:icon64URL> <em:creator>RealityRipple</em:creator> <em:developer>David Garrett</em:developer> <em:developer>Joseph Birr-Pixton</em:developer> </Description> </RDF> Or, you can use the extension Serpent Tester Tool https://msfn.org/board/topic/183923-extensions-and-custom-buttons-for-uxp-browsers-corrections-modifications-adjustments-and-special-recommendations/?do=findComment&comment=1226306 to make GeoFlag compatible with Serpent. Anyway, this extension is absolutely great and much better than FlagFox. There are many additional features and all of them are working perfectly. Here is a screenshot of its context menu: There was only one feature I unfortunately missed. The menu item My info to get information about the user's external IP and their location. For that reason, I added this item by myself. And, what can I say? It works exactly as expected.

RealityRipple Software - Pale Moon Extensions All Pale Moon extensions, created by RealityRipple Software, can be installed in New Moon 28, although their website claims that the extensions are only compatible with Pale Moon 31.*. You just have to modify an entry in the file install.rdf inside each of their xpi files. Here is an example of their original code: <em:id>{8de7fcbb-c55c-4fbe-bfc5-fc555c87dbc4}</em:id> <em:minVersion>31.0</em:minVersion> <em:maxVersion>31.*</em:maxVersion> And here is the modification: <em:id>{8de7fcbb-c55c-4fbe-bfc5-fc555c87dbc4}</em:id> <em:minVersion>28.10.0</em:minVersion> <em:maxVersion>31.*</em:maxVersion> BTW, these extensions can also be made compatible with Serpent by using the extension Serpent Tester Tool, for example. Here is a link: https://msfn.org/board/topic/183923-extensions-and-custom-buttons-for-uxp-browsers-corrections-modifications-adjustments-and-special-recommendations/?do=findComment&comment=1226306. My recommended extensions from RealityRipple are Grabit, ExtExp, BIZARRE, uTube, MTube, GeoFlag, qrThis, and Open Registry Key. All of them can be installed in New Moon 28 with the modification above without any problems, and they are working fine as expected.

uBlock Origin Legacy modified by @AstroSkipper - Part 1 (obsolete) uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.30 is the latest version you can download from GitHub. Here is the link: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases/tag/firefox-legacy-1.16.4.30. In the most recent versions of New Moon 28 and Serpent 52, the UI of uBlock Origin's dashboard page has been broken. The menu items at the top of the dashboard page are compressed and no longer visible. However, you can still click on them with the mouse. In previous versions of New Moon 28 and Serpent 52, everything was fine (I didn't check in which version this issue occurred first). I also tested this misbehaviour with a clean profile. Here is a screenshot of this issue: I had a deeper look inside this extension and analyzed several embedded files. I checked all code referring to stylesheets and therefore especially CSS code. After reading a bit in an online CSS reference, I started to understand how this issue might be corrected. It was a good thing that I had dealt a bit more intensively with CSS a few months ago. My idea was in fixing the wrong positioning of the dashboard's menu bar and correcting all distances. Inside the xpi archive is a file called dashboard.css. This file had to be modified. Here is the section with the problematic, original code: html, body { display: flex; flex-direction: column; height: 100vh; justify-content: stretch; overflow: hidden; position: relative; width: 100vw; } #dashboard-nav { background-color: var(--default-surface); border: 0; box-shadow: var(--dashboard-bar-shadow); display: flex; flex-shrink: 0; flex-wrap: wrap; overflow-x: hidden; padding: 0; position: sticky; top: 0; width: 100%; z-index: 10; } And, here is the same section with my modifications: html, body { display: flex; flex-direction: column; height: 100vh; justify-content: stretch; overflow: hidden; padding-top: 35px; position: sticky; width: 100vw; } #dashboard-nav { background-color: var(--default-surface); border: 0; box-shadow: var(--dashboard-bar-shadow); display: flex; flex-shrink: 0; flex-wrap: wrap; overflow-x: hidden; padding: 0; position: absolute; top: 0; width: 100%; z-index: 10; } You see, I changed very little code. I corrected in 'html, body {} the value of the property position from 'relative' to 'sticky' and added a distance to the top of the dashboard page by the property padding-top with a value of 35px. Furthermore, I changed the value of the property position in #dashboard-nav {} from 'sticky' to 'absolute'. Anyway, it was a problem of positioning and correct distances. Now, with my modifications of the file dashboard.css, the dashboard can be opened as before, and all elements are finally fully visible again. This is a screenshot after fixing the issue, to demonstrate the result of my modification: Here is the download link to my fixed version of uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.30: https://www.mediafire.com/file/9lzu12rv5sczto9/uBlock0_1.16.4.30.firefox-legacy-mod-by-%40AstroSkipper.xpi/file Cheers, AstroSkipper1 point
