... Going by his recent post , equally unhelpful as it consisted only of screengrabs with "the browser" localised in Russian, I'd hazard a guess and say it's New Moon 28 ... @Slavich : Please , when filing "not working" reports: 1. Provide details of OS and its architecture 2, Provide details of the browser used (name of, bitness, build version) 3. Post actual links of misbehaving websites 4. Describe in more words the exact nature of the error(s); what were you expecting to happen and what actually happens... 5. If the website in question requires a registration for the "bug" to be witnessed, then understand that other members here and/or the browser maintainer won't be able to replicate the bug without such a website account... 6. Because of "current world situation" (won't say more, politics is NOT allowed in this forum), Russia-based websites/services might be inaccessible to "the rest" of the world, this fact imposes additional hurdles for "us" to troubleshoot your reported "bugs"... 7. This is an English "speaking" international forum, try to refrain from posting "localised" debugging info (let alone inside images ) ... 8. Resort to posting images where absolutely necessary (and images should be accompanied by "explaining" text) As a rule of thumb, whenever possible, avoid UXP-based browsers to conduct financial transactions on line, as those "services" (banks, etc.) are known to be "pretty particular" with the user-agents/clients they allow ... In closing, it's now the second half of 2023, you shouldn't treat the roytam1 offered browsers as a "panacea"; they can accomplish many things, but not everything you throw at them (especially on older H/W); while the "upstream" devs try to tackle UXP's shortcomings as best as they can, often times these efforts (commendable as they may be ) are not enough to compete with recent Chromium/Firefox (many websites/services are designed against) ... Many XP users here have attested they have to resort to a recent browser on Win7+ or on Android to complete successfully all of their online tasks; I. personally, have come to consider, especially in recent years, the UXP-based browsers I use (St52/NM28 & St55) as more of a "palliative" on my 'legacy" Vista laptop rather than full-blown browsing "solutions" (no disrespect intended at MCP devs and Roy ) ... Best regards .

Which one of @roytam1's browsers do you refer to?

Thanks! Nothing good comes for free, eh? I assume this means logging and collecting, reporting. Did you try it? I'm looking for a decent VPN to bypass cloudfare, in crx format. I don't want them to log my IP.

What would be the easiest way to make a fork of an extension available to the general public without creating a GitHub repo? I already made a proper fork with my own branding and identification. I also kept the reference to the MPL-2.0 licence. And I would provide links. One to the original source files and a second to the changed files. What other information would have to be provided in order to avoid trouble? And what is the most simple way to do this all under the MPL-2.0 licence? Further ideas and opinions are still welcome.

To use Proton VPN you have to create an account as usual.

I've submitted a PR to Pale Moon to add a User Agent Override for this site: https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/pulls/1927 I've also added a User Agent Override to Basilisk: https://repo.palemoon.org/Basilisk-Dev/Basilisk/commit/54ebc66d9d00449d0ad89572f912cef9a8e87d84 On my personal machine I use Basilisk, Pale Moon, LibreWolf. I do have Ungoogled Chromium installed but I only use it if I run into a site that does not work in any of the aforementioned browsers. On my work machine I use Librewolf and Ungoogled Chromium. On my phone I use Mull and the version of Chromium included with Calyx OS. On my Windows 2000 machine I use Serpent and MyPal 68.

... But with latest UXP builds:

You're right. Not really. TBH, I have only a little idea about these GitHub repos, especially when it would come to creating my own. As I already mentioned in my thread, I personally am not really a coder but rather a code recycler, fixer, modifier and batch programmer. I like to repair things that no longer work correctly. Especially when they are close to my heart. In any case, thanks for your further explanations!

Do I still need to make an account? it's unclear.

No, I meant block cloudfare from logging my IP, my real IP. Till some weeks ago, I could do it, now they want the real IP, plus full fingerprint, just to solve captcha. Free VPN from browsers, wouldn't do, obviously, well known paid providers are also not a secret to them. I tried several paid.

Thanks! Could you link to some docs I could read and compare, most of these I replaced are undocumented. Replacing Exes worked for me in the past.

Git for Windows on Windows 8/7 is going bye-bye, following Cygwin's and MSYS2's lead as there is dependency on MSYS2. https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.41.0.windows.3 32-bit version is also being phased out.

The benchmark *IS* useful. Not sure why the nay-sayers don't "see" it. It doesn't just test the "browser", but how well the CPU is communicating with that browser. The "browser" isn't usually the bottleneck, how well your CPU is handling the browser IS - that's also why "era correct" computers are a valid discussion and I admit that these are not "era correct" CPUs that I run 360Chrome on. My work computer *IS* that much faster than my home computer. How about PassMark scores? I'm open for alternatives, but I "must" have a "number", I do not go by "gut feelings".

Okey, but after resolve bsod problem and 64 version

Here there is video help working with the NTHelper

That one was using openssl-1.0.2p (file version 1.0.2.16); yes, XP-compatible, but can't "do" TLSv1.3 ... Not all hope is lost for you ; if you are able to install stunnel-win32-5.70-openssl-1.1.1u under XP (can't test myself), this comes with DLLs libcrypto-1_1.dll and libssl-1_1.dll of file version 1.1.1.21; you can try to overwrite those two DLLs with the similarly named ones from this package below: https://rwijnsma.home.xs4all.nl/files/openssl/openssl-1.1.1t-win32-xpmod-sse.7z This package has been compiled to support XP SP3 and because it's of version 1.1.1, it also "does" TLSv1.3; as I instructed you already, you do have to check with DW (dependency walker) that the main sTunnel EXEs (stunnel.exe+tstunnel.exe) BOTH load OK under XP after the openssl DLLs have been replaced... Please report back ! Cheers.

If on a UXP-based browser (Serpent 52, NM28, etc.), the "Download" button depicted is unresponsive ; it works, though, in Serpent 55 and 360EEv13.x ... If on a UXP-based browser, click on either the "Raw" button or the "View raw" link in the middle... @Ben Markson ; Which OS do you plan to use stunnel-win32-5.70-openssl-1.1.1u on? AFAIAA, this package requires Windows Vista SP2+; I don't have an XP box to test currently, but openssl-1.1.1* alone won't load under XP, and this is a known fact in the XP communities... Once you download the package in question, extract it with 7-zip and then inspect EXEs and DLLs with dependency walker ; I'm quite confident you'll find it has "fatal" issues under XP (assuming you want to deploy it under XP, per the thread's title ) ... Cheers PS: Below is a screengrab from my Vista SP2 32-bit laptop:

^ That did the trick! Installed KB2670838, and inmediately afterwards the display adapter was recognised as "3060 Ti" at last: Then proceeded to install 474.11 through Device Manager, and this time it worked: Thank you very much @ED_Sln ! A virtual toast to you sir!

One more update - fixed some errors and added new functionality

You do not need to remove this post. It was just a hint if you have further issues with 360Chrome or other Chrome forks. The discussion here was mainly about web compatibility in terms of two websites, mediamarkt.de and saturn.de which were tested in 360Chrome and Kafan browser, too, just for comparison purpose.

Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted, I found that versions, already checked, unfortunately the dark theme is only partially dark, I'll try out the other ones. I consider Comodo Firewall to be good news, since it's not compatible with Kaspersky. What can I say, nice!

Vista's media foundation and Direct2D are fully compatible with that purely DX11.0 game. Though, it's not the case with the latest patch, so I lowered down the version, patched a bit, DX11 loaded fine, so no troubles, except for the bloody text. I patched DWrite from the Platform Update and placed into the game directory, the error is gone, still no text, I even replaced the game fonts with a working ones from an older game, no result. WinSqmAddToStreamEx replaced with WinSqmAddToStream. These are undocumented: GetFontRealizationInfo GetFontFileData GetFontFileInfo https://github.com/MyTDT-Mysoft/DllCompat/issues/9 So I replaced with GetFontData. I even hooked it up with the new gdi32, then it just won't start at all, throwing out the generic 142 error. Before patching the log file was: [INFO]main() [INFO]Styles enabled [INFO]CApplication::CApplication() [INFO]Create options [INFO]Starting physics engine [INFO]Starting 3d engine [INFO]Selected adapter: NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan dx11\DspMainDX11.cpp [190] : error: Assertment failed! Message: Failed to initialize DirectWrite. Now it's without the last line. But no ingame text, strange, as I see the Dwrite module is loaded into the memory just fine. Yes, I still use that 11 years old videocard.

There seems to be a Black Normal theme already in Comodo 5.9/5.10. Have a look here: https://help.comodo.com/topic-72-1-284-3042-.html I personally can't say anything more about it because it was too long ago and I never used black or dark modes. Cheers, AstroSkipper

This time I decided to make a totally clean install again, just to launch Spellforce 3 Reforced, released in 2022. No missing dependencies, all looks good, but I'm awarded with this error. It's not a driver problem, the game starts just fine with the same driver on later OS. This happens with all versions of the Kernel. Ideas?

@win32, as promised, the solution for both methods (local and normal), was to redirect Opera browser to the original non-modified shell32 from SP2 (modified in 2009). I forced the path through my starter app., (the one with the Opera icon, if you remember). Now dialogues open up just fine.

UPDATE: I found the problem, it's in the shell32.dll, not comdlg32. The bug is there when using both methods, local and normal install. I will later write what I did to solve it for me.

Remnant II: Ultimate Edition v382788 Steam/Epic Genres: Action, Shooter, Third-person, 3D Companies: Gunfire Games, Gearbox Publishing This game requires Windows 10/11

I checked that file, and it remains unchanged, even when I install all of that 6003 series upgrades. (looks like it's from the original SP2, released on April 2009)

Found an easy and fast way to replicate SP2 with nothing, except: Install in order 1 - KB971512 2 - KB2117917 3 - Apply redirecting via registry 4 - Install one of these non-beta monthly rollups (like KB4487023, KB4480968, kb 4493471). 5 - Reboot 6 - Place kernel, shell, user locally, you will see no dialogs open at all.

What update level are you on?

win32, thank you for the quick response, I tried all monthly rollups (non-beta), basically any update, besides the well known April 09 [all them] lead to this issue. Even these ones. March 12, 2019—KB4489880 (Monthly Rollup) February 12, 2019—KB4487023 (Monthly Rollup) But I have poor performance with the April 09 rollup (spectrum "fix"?), so I have no choice. If in uninstall all of them and revert back to the state before, reboot, 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.

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.

MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager Monster Hunter Rise wants MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager. which is Windows 8(1)+ only. When I try and launch, it says entry point MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager is missing in the dynamic link library MFPlat.DLL. Replaced, like they suggested, I now get a black screen. Ideas?

I always delete it, and it works without it. Especially if you have DirectX redist installed.

It never worked good to begin with, even with Win10, I don't know about you, I'm not gonna cry about that buggy game, sorry.

A brilliant solution! The German software is always on top! I know newer versions, up to recent years, still work via CMD, it's just the interface that is not loading properly.

I had similar problems with Eset NOD32 Antivirus.

For me it always detected Sacred 2 Securom files as "virus", I couldn't play anything securom or starforce! (game copy protections) So I uninstalled it, also not without troubles, I had to use a special uninstaller!

@Dave-H What do you think about the documentation? Is it sufficient and traceable? I know now you've really read it. And does the complete package work as described?

Hello @XPerceniol! What's going on with your problems? Is it working now?

And a short annoucement! From now on we have one more tester. And the latecomer is: @NotHereToPlayGames. Welcome on board! And my first recommendation: please read the complete documentation first! Just to avoid problems!

But you can hide more icons which you only use rarely. By clicking on the arrow you have access to them at any time. I think it's a great feature! You can hide the systray icon of Min2Tray using the hotkey ALT + S , but unfortunately, all windows of Min2Tray will be invisible, i.e., the status window of ProxHTTPSProxy, too. But if you have so many icons in your systray, then there will be some of them which can be hidden temporarily by Windows XP native feature.
