Yes, it is still working, the problem isn't IrfanView per se but rather the plugins. Unfortunately, while the program still supports XP, some of its plugins were either made to leverage on native Windows API to decode some formats that simply don't exist in XP or they were compiled in a non XP compatible way. Luckily, I've encountered only a few isolated cases so far, but still... Same here, but only since early 2000 with Windows98SE. I didn't even know it existed before.

The installer for KeePass is compiled with a recent version of Inno Setup, which only runs on Windows 7 AFAIK. Also, update checking may not work on XP, presumably due to outdated cryptographic components. 2.49 version at least launches even on Windows 98, although it exhausted all GDI resources and crashed after opening and scrolling a bit in the Password Quality window. About 1,5 years ago, I experimented with old version of Inno Setup and put together the installer that launches on Windows 9x, offers to install multiple languages, detects .NET Framework and warns the user if suitable version is missing. Back then at least, the installer used the external executable to launch native image compilation process (optimization step on the components selection screen), I figured that was unnecessary as it can be scripted directly with Inno Setup.

KB4499184 is a preview (read: beta) of the May 2019 update. I assume that comdlg32 is the source of the problem since that's where the dialogs are located. I'll see if I can reproduce this.

The installer calls ngen.exe to generate native image, it's an optimization to improve performance of managed applications. Though I'm not sure if you can tell the difference since KeePass doesn't do much work, but when it's done, you have KeePass.ni.exe on its modules list in Process Hacker. The command is: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\ngen.exe install "C:\Program Files\KeePass Password Safe 2\KeePass.exe" Reverse process is run with uninstall argument instead of install. The path above assumes 32-bit Windows and .NET Framework 4, for 64-bit, the path to ngen.exe is C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\ngen.exe. While 32-bit .NET is there, KeePass will run in 64-bit mode on 64-bit OS. Obviously also use the correct path to KeePass.exe.

I use Boot-US for many years to boot different OSs from different partitions. I don't know if it is what you are looking for. This boot manager can be installed on a floppy disk what I did on my old computers. It has so much features I can't describe here. Maybe, you first have a look here: https://www.boot-us.de/eng/ And here is the full documenatation: https://www.boot-us.de/eng/manual_eng.pdf You can manage booting of other OSs such as Linux besides Windows partitions, too. Partitions can be simply or truly hidden. It is possible to set exactly which other logical partitions may be seen when booting from a primary partition.

Login as local admin (edit: and set the default applications as desired), then in a admin command prompt run: dism /online /Export-DefaultAppAssociations:"C:\DefaultAppAssociations.xml" This will save the file DefaultAppAssociations.xml to C:\ Then run: dism /online /Import-DefaultAppAssociations:"C:\DefaultAppAssociations.xml" This will set the defaults on all new users who sign into that system but if won't work for users with existing profiles on the system. To check this run: dism /Online /get-DefaultAppAssociations >C:\TEMP\DefaultApps.txt Got this from here. https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2147839-how-to-set-windows-10-default-programs-for-every-user-with-powershell-script

UPDATE: I uninstalled KB4499184 (that caused the issue), rebooted, but the issue is still there. Very strange.

Yes, I tried all kernels, including March, all is fine, except this smal issue, I have only a handful of 32 bit apps, and MKVToolNix 32 bit works fine. So I can't say for sure, but it seems it's something wrong with shell32.dll. Maybe it doesn't match the newer versions, but it's strange, because that update is from May 2019.

Hi@win32, for the first time a small issue with the kernel, short story, I had to install an update KB4499184, to be able to run a game, now open/save dialog doesn't work in most apps, chrome for example. This is with all kernels, but currently I'm on v06102022. I also have the platform and DX11 update, that's all. Thanks for looking into this.

Has anyone here also noticed a sudden freeze of the New Moon 28 browser from time to time? It happens rarely and started with one of the latter releases. I can't say exactly with which one, nor under which conditions this problem occurs. I am interested first of all in whether it is only me who is affected or others as well.

I am, but I haven't been able to respond because there was no home Internet access for a few days here.

You should to try. But i think no problem if 3.5 installed after 4.0 .

Sounds like you just need a theme. Any SeaMonkey theme should work, although you'll probably need to modify the install.rdf file in the .xpi archive. I think instructions on modifying install.rdf are available in one of the earlier "parts" of this thread. Or you could try IceApe, whose default theme resembles the original one.

There are also these: https://github.com/DanysysTeam/SFTA https://github.com/DanysysTeam/PS-SFTA the secret hash seems to be not that much secret if it can be generated by a Powershell or Powerbasic script. jaclaz

this is reason why i request it to fix title bar, it happen to me but with classic theme, and feodor2 did fix it, here what it looks like in new release, starting with 68.13.1b, and now 68.13.2b

My sudden freezes last as long as I have killed the process palemoon.exe. The browser does not regenerate by itself. Restarting New Moon 28 then is no problem, though. But I can't really say under which circumstances this happens. Months ago, I didn't have that problem. Anyway! I'll try to observe that more attentively next time it freezes again.

Please calm down, I only wrote that I liked that colour. Would it a bother if ask, I read you tried chinese catsxp browser, could you tell me, if there's a similar extension for 360, where it would show a similar open/save dialog, like in catsxp (when you save a jpeg file, for example). I just thought it might be, cause they're similar, thanks.

That's because that is the INACTIVE WINDOW title bar and icons. When ACTIVE, Mypal's title bar and icons are EXACTLY IDENTICAL to the title bar and icons of my 360Chrome skin !!! My INACTIVE WINDOW 360Chrome skin is also IDENTICAL to Mypal's INACTIVE window. And the Mypaly title bar being TALLER than a STANDARD title bar in XP is one more reason I will not be using it! The min/max/restore/exit icons are TOO TALL and DO NOT MATCH the other 99.9% of applications on my computer. XP icons and title bar should look like everything else on my XP. One program should not look different than another! THAT is the purpose of my XP skin. Nothing more, nothing less. Will not be discussing futher.

I do have a feeling official Pale Moon has gotten choppier with recent updates, but I only notice it at home on a 32-bit build. At work, I have a beefier computer and use AVX2 build of Pale Moon. There it doesn't happen as frequently, even though I have over 40 tabs open, most of them (about 2/3) in the unloaded state, but still, I put more strain on the browser at work than I do at home. Maybe it's time for a new computer.

On this screenshot XP skin looks like it needs to be, soft pastel colours. Neutral. not distracting. Is this the skin you're going to port?

Now I noticed "Ask where to save each file before downloading" doesn't work anymore. Apps like the German MKVToolNix 74.0.0 work fine though. It's mostly a browser and book readers based on chrome issue.

This "XP" skin is very bright and has acid colours, otherwise I have nothing against XP and its themes. It's just distracting, I prefer to look at websites. not browser skins. My opinion, skins must be more neutral.

Yep! You bet your butt! It's not that uncommon. Look at the reaction by non-XP users (at dozens of sites, not just here at MSFN) that will not use a 360Chrome browser because of it having an XP skin. That is not really any different, is it? We all have out "likes" and "dislikes" and we should not expect them to "make sense" to others. Basically akin to "the heart wants what the heart wants" when you see people in an ABUSIVE relationship but STAY because "the heart wants what the heart wants".

The problem of add printer has resolved in the latest version of extended kernel 3.1j5.

Quite possible. But I do NOT use nor "support" single-process browsers in 2023! Unlike 360Chrome, everyone can decide for themselves whether they want to use Mypal 68 in single-process or multiprocess mode. I only said that I prefer the very stable single-process mode because of my low-power Windows XP computer. But this does not mean that multiprocess mode is unstable. On the contrary! It is supposed to be quite stable by now. With Mypal 68, the code, especially with regard to the JavaScript engine, which is now at level 78, is constantly being developed and corrected by @feodor2. Maybe, your observations in terms of stability are not up-to-date. Here is a link to the most recent release of Mypal 68 in the version 68.13.2b: https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/releases/download/68.13.2b/mypal-68.13.2.en-US.win32.zip :OT I see you like my self-created smiley I allowed you to grab. Enjoy it! :End of OT

Having never used the others, I can't really comment. I just found OrangeMonkey very easy to use, with a very good user interface.

It would be strange if you didn't. That is simply not true. Mypal 68 is very stable in single-process mode. Moreover, @feodor2 has made a special effort in the last two releases to ensure stability even in multi-process mode, apparently successfully. And the best of all, this browser is actively being developed further . I personally do not use this browser in multiprocess mode at all. But all I can say is that Mypal 68 in single-process mode runs super stable and is the only browser in my Windows XP system that has not crashed once. I can't say that about any other browser. @roytam1's browsers are absolutely great, but Google service are always problematic on these browsers. Google stuff works without any problems on Android tablets and smartphones. I am additionally an Android user, and I am writing this comment from my Android tablet as most of my posts. But, I personally never used Google Voice. No trust, no need! I talk to others either personally or call them by (smart)phone.

You can simply disable that shitt Chat using registry: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Chat Create dword key : ChatIcon Value : 3 It will remove the chat icon from both settings and from taskbar. Just remove the icon first and use the key. Otherwise it will remain on taskbar and you can't even remove it (If Windows chat won't exit, create it)

BTW there is a PR ( https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/pulls/2276 ) for some JS BigInt support, but it is too late to get in my tree so there will be no UXP based build tomorrow.

I am the developer of Basilisk as of about a year ago. Moonchild is no longer involved with Basilisk directly. I think you should focus on MyPal 68 for now until you think it is stable enough to divide time between two browsers. Until then people can always use Serpent if they need a Firefox 52 type browser for Windows XP. I use Serpent on my Windows 2000 gaming PC with the BWC extended kernel. I'm obviously biased since I am the developer of Basilisk, but it would be cool to see Centaury continue or restart development at some point in the future if you ever have the time.

Hello @feodor2! I would be very happy if Mypal 68 was completely finished first. There are still a few things missing, such as automatic updating of extensions, Internationalisation & Localisation, and so on. But I would be very pleased about further development on Centaury and Waterfox, too. The more different choices in Windows XP, the better. Especially if the coder is such talented as you.

Personally I recommend NOT using GPT on XP at all. Either learn to live with internal hard disks smaller than 2.2 TB or find an external USB that exposes 4kb sized sectors and compatible with MBR up to 17 TB or so. Now, finding these external USB enclosures might be unfortunately really tricky as producers/sellers are unlikely to highlight how their controller works. On this thread where the matter is discussed on superuser there are a couple hints, but nothing "exact" on the make/models: https://superuser.com/questions/1271871/4k-emulation-sata-usb-controllers There is yet another option, use (if you can find one) a native 4K drive (that does not do "512e" emulation), I believe they exist only in largish sizes (8 TB and more) but really cannot say. Remember that 4kb drives won't normally be bootable with MBR. jaclaz

It's not a bickering fest, wake up. Because it's not related to this topic. What are you all talking about for the last two pages, at least, it's just spam and has zero relation to this topic. Absolutely true!

... You need the zip CLI of the Info-ZIP utility; Windows binaries courtesy of the German developer Dirk Paehl: https://www.paehld.de/open_source/?Old_programs___ZIP_UNZIP I myself use the 3.1d26+beta version ... 1. Place zip.exe adjacent to extracted directory "omni" 2. CD in the Windows Command Prompt to inside the "omni" DIR; then: "..\zip" -qr9XD "..\omni.ja" * Archive omni.ja created besides the zip.exe binary; NB: this archive is still "un-optimised", so it then needs to be additionally "optimised"... 3. Place the py2.7 script "optimizejars.py" next to zipped archive "omni.ja" 4. With py2.7 installed, execute: python "optimizejars.py" --optimize ./ ./ ./ A copy of that script has been uploaded here ...

@Dave-H You have got a PM just now.

@Dave-H I know and that for a long time. And therefore I asked you if I were allowed to upload HTTPSProxy due to the fact that @Thomas S. hadn't been here for a long time and he is the author. What do you think? You are a Super Moderator and I think you'll know if I am allowed to or not.

For revoked Certificate Update "rvkroots.exe" Microsoft download (http://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=41542), unzip to a folder (e.g. with WinRAR). In "rvkroots.inf" the entry in the string VERSION should be changed to "5,0,2195,0" and the VER entry changed to "005". The next step is download the "http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3/static/trustedr/en/disallowedcert.sst" and paste the unzipped folder and replace older file. Then with e.g. (Create Self-Extracting Archive) WinRAR all files in the folder to an archive option SFX with the following comment: TempMode Silent=1 Overwrite=1 Setup=Rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection rvkroots.inf,DefaultInstall pack and you have a current update for blocking unsafe Certificates! The link above works for me.

@Dave-H Here are the most recent Root Certificates and Revoked Certificates Updater I made yesterday. Download link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/kegkco6y6cbybdx/Roots_Certificate_Updater_18.10.21.7z/file

@maile3241 If there is no such file then it doesn't matter. Copy patched file in both folders and well done! Restart computer and check whether both files are still there. And then

Hi greenhillmaniac, A few years ago (February of 2011, so a few months before the windows v4 site shutdown) I retrieved Windows ME updates in order to install them on a machine that had no internet connection. On the other day I stumbled across these while looking for a file, so if any tuga is interested in this, here they are in their PT-PT glory: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/n4cqwuen0b68b/winmillennium-updates Cheers
