TBH, I did all the steps of my guide manually. The verification of each step is much easier doing it this way. And keep an eye on SFC! I switched it off in my system, forever.

As one of the youngest people on MSFN, and also have had my several moments of thoughts like these, a lot of it to me boils down to the truth about how we see the world. Me, along with many others my age, see the world in a very pessimistic sense. We see and hear of all the events of mass shootings (especially in the west), increasing cost of living, more and more jobs being replaced by computers, and the continuous argument of each side constantly berating each other to death. If its okay to be transgender, if its okay to be gay, if its okay to do anything, really. We look at the world and just see it as something falling apart and our generation having to be the one to deal with it. The internet has reduced social contact significantly, and many of us are still recovering from the years of isolation especially during the pandemic. Not to mention the unstable politics in the east, with Russia / Ukraine, Palestine / Israel, it really doesn't give us much positivity in the future when all we hear is how horrible the world is. I personally had thoughts of ending it all when I felt like there was no hope. Most people typically have those thoughts when they feel there's no reason to live their life and that everything will continue to be suffering. Especially when we are told to just man up, and deal with it. The younger generation as a whole really values the comfort of living a happy life much, much more than having to work ourselves to death just to make ends meet. A lot of us just want to live happy lives with our friends and close partners. We want to live and be the person we aspire to be, express ourselves not limited to a certain construct, and just be our best self. But the idea that you lose your soul as you get older, are forced into certain restrictions just for society... its a thought that a lot of people can't swallow. I'd love to see a future where people can come together on their differences and make a change for the best interests of the people, not for the best interests of people who agree with you. I'd love to see a future where things are fair and that you can actually get an education for cheap, be able to live for cheap, since we are all humans on this planet. Why does anyone have to be more important than someone else? This is our home. There are no other homes out there for us. We need to respect this planet that supports all of our lives. Battling each other until the death, even if it is human nature, will really be what causes the human extinction. Ourselves. Mental health is so utterly important right now, the focus of humanity needs to really push into improving the health of everyone worldwide, physically and mentally. Along with ensuring both males, females, and however else you identify yourself as, are all treated equally. But even then, its not a problem that can be solved unless the entire world meets and agrees on our problems, and most countries actually take a stand to improve it in response. I just want the future to be exciting, man. But in reality a lot of us aren't excited. We really are fearing the future. We will likely see this as the numbers of young parents will decrease as newer generations decide to not have children.

If you wish, you can try to launch YouTube with QT plugin. https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/viewtube/ You may have to configure or install codecs, it works with WMP and VLC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-6MczEoa6I dmiranda, 1.22.19 work in MyPal 68 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/single-file/ SingleFile Legacy - is actually just an old version of Singlefile, approximately v1.20

FYI, the error code 0x800706B5 means RPC_S_Unknown_IF with the description: Check if there are problems in your system with the event log service!

I have never been using Windows XP Professional x64. Therefore, I cannot report from my own experience. As you already read in my article, this OS doesn't support SHA256 to sign certificates. Thus, I fear you are stuck with only ProxHTTPSProxyMII 1.3a when accessing MU/WU. For more detailed information in terms of your OS, you should contact @maile3241. He got it working under Windows XP Professional x64. BTW, there are other options to update your OS. I listed them in my thread 'General and specific solutions for problems regarding AU/WU/MU in Windows XP'. Have a look here:

Basilisk releases use the date for the version, for example "2023.11.05" is the most recent release of Basilisk. Basilisk release builds are compiled with "export BASILISK_VERSION=1" in the .mozconfig. Internally Basilisk releases present themselves to addons as "52.9.date" rather than just "date". This ensures that Basilisk works with extensions that were developed for Firefox 52. The 52.9.date internal version as well as the date version number comes from the confvars.sh shell script: https://repo.palemoon.org/Basilisk-Dev/Basilisk/src/branch/master/basilisk/confvars.sh You can also set BASILISK_VERSION to a date if you want to specify a date. For example, if you do "export BASILISK_VERSION=2023.12.01" then the Basilisk version number will be 2023.12.01. This functionality is in the above shell script as well. If "export BASILISK_VERSION=1" is not present in the .mozconfig then the version defaults to 52.9.0. This is the reason that Serpent uses 52.9.0 as the release number. 52.9.0 comes from the txt files in the basilisk/config directory:https://repo.palemoon.org/Basilisk-Dev/Basilisk/src/branch/master/basilisk/config

Is this a joke? Toshiba Satellite more like one grand in 2013, esp. if you're in Western Europe. https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/toshiba-satellite-u845t-s4165

My driver is from 2021, oen of the last ones for 7 and 8. RDR2 runs perfectly fine. DXVK, I tried today, no result. Looks like the game can be added to a full no-support list!

On that PC, I'm updated to the level of January 2020. Not sure if I want to go higher. Veodeocard is with 6GB of VRAM, looks like it's enough. Drivers are old, but they don't make them for Windows 7 anymore. I would like to add, i run RDR2 perfectly fine, no freezes. So the card is fine.

Thanks! But now only black screen and nothing. I had the same issue with Elden ring, black screen and only music in the menu (I could hear the clicking). Platfrom update installed! Ideas?

Try this, maybe? type about:config into the address bar and then pressEnter apply either or both of the following config items: Search for app.update.silent, then set it to true Search for app.update.url, then change it to a fake URL https://aus5.mozilla.org/update/ change hmmps://jjj5.mozilla.org/update/6/%PRODUCT%/..

I remember there was a flag for chrome to supress it, perhaps also a similar solution can be found?

Best regards, your tired AstroSkipper @VistaLover Thanks once more for pointing to your solution! Works great here! The Violentmonkey 2.14.0 toolbar button is now fully functional.

The next time I am at my desktop computer I will try your second solution: Best regards, your tired AstroSkipper

Undoubtedly a memory leak! I checked it at my desktop computer but wrote it later using my tablet. Of course, I meant 2.14.0 and 2.13.2 respectively. Sorry for being incorrect! I hate that. Mea culpa! And thank you very much for your information! I used the forum search before but I must have overlooked your solution. I'm not that fit at the moment. And now I've infected you, too. Sorry again! PS: Original, faulty post has been corrected!

To manage my user scripts, I use the legacy extension Greasemonkey for Pale Moon in New Moon 28 and the webextension Tampermonkey in Serpent 52. Everything runs well so far. Since the webextension Violentmonkey is mentioned here in the forum again and again, I took a closer look at it and installed the last compatible version 2.14.0 in a fresh profile under Serpent 52. Unfortunately, I found out that it does not work properly. The settings cannot be accessed via the toolbar button. Clicking onto the toolbar button to create a new script does not work either. After a lot of testing, it seems that the last fully working version is 2.13.2. @VistaLover I know you have been using Violentmonkey for some time. What version do you currently have installed? And is it fully functional? Edit: I corrected a memory leak inside my brain and corrected the version numbers. Maybe, I am too tired the last weeks.

Thanks for your clarification and contribution here! As I already pointed out, I do appreciate it in any case. To have the correct min and max version numbers in the file install.rdf for each browser is sensible and fine.

Panda Dome installs fine in Windows XP Professional SP3. No problems here. My system is fully updated including all POSReady updates. These are the system requirements for installing Panda Dome: Does your CPU support the SSE2 instruction set? Running an installation program that then immediately closes again is something I know well from systems whose CPU does not support SSE2, although the program needs this feature.

I did a scan of my system partition by MWAV - eScan Antivirus Toolkit. Surprisingly, the tool found a strange file that other AV programs did not notice. In any case, it is always a wise decision to use different scan tools. The one perfect tool will never exist. But we have to be glad that there are still a few tools running under Windows XP at all.

MWAV - eScan Antivirus Toolkit is an antivirus/antimalware offline scanner for a manual checking of the computer and cleaning if necessary. WiseVector StopX is an AI based antivirus program with a background guard, but its development has stopped, unfortunately So they are completely different and not easy to compare. You will find only a few tests of both tools in the internet. They are not as well known as the AV programs produced by big antivirus manufacturers. MWAV is a good tool, easy to handle and is updated on a regular base. I do trust it. For more information, follow this link to its English homepage: https://www.escanav.com/en/mwav-tools/download-free-antivirus-toolkit.asp If you are looking for an antivirus program with real-time protection under Windows XP, you can try Panda Dome. I wrote about this program in previous posts. In my system, I use both, Panda Dome and MWAV. A good combination, in my opinion.

You always pay with your data. Therefore, these commercial antivirus scanner are not really free. But if you don't want that, you should avoid using Microsoft Windows, especially more recent ones. In these OSs, you always pay with your data, even if you have paid for your Windows. You can switch to Linux or take all kinds of countermeasures. BTW, MWAV - eScan Antivirus Toolkit is free of charge and an offline scanner which doesn't need any internet connections. Updating can be done offline, too. All has been described in this post and the subsequent:

Thanks for your hint! I already wrote about these modifications here in these posts: I left the maxVersion at 52.9.* but it can increased at any time (especially for Serpent 55), of course. All these extensions work in Serpent 52 and New Moon 28. I use a lot of them. But nevertheless, thank you for your contribution here! As always, much appreciated. Kind regards, AstroSkipper

Update notification! All Pale Moon extensions, created by RealityRipple Software have been updated and are now available in version 32.0 or 32.1. Here is the link once again: https://realityripple.com/Software/XUL/ Cheers, AstroSkipper

"D." stands for my first name, let's assume it's Dereck, a very common name in France. Would it be hard for you to read and finally remember this simple text ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek "Derek is a masculine given name. It is the English language short form of Diederik, the Low Franconian form of the name Theodoric.Theodoric is an old Germanic name with an original meaning of "people-ruler".. Common variants of the name are Derrek, Derick, Dereck, Derrick, and Deric.Low German and Dutch short forms of Diederik are Dik, Dirck, and Dirk" You better tell me, why did you even ban win32 ? Enemies all around ?!?? lol. There's a huge list of users you banned, I see you don't like me, ok. But win32 ?!??!? And that poor Jody guy... But then again, I don't care, just don't bring the crap from your "forum" here. And stop creating fakes with MSFN members, using their names.

I remember there were sweet times when we had a good function (at least POF had it longer than the others), where we could just block countries in batches. The first and obvious batch included Russia, Nigeria and similar. But later "they" started to get "clever" and used VPN to register from Western Europe/UK/US and things got more complicated. I wonder could it still be implemented here ?

I'd be fine with it, if it was only like that. Unfortunately - no, it wasn't. I also remembered, along with you, they also lured @Jody Thornton, just for their laughs and giggles and kicked him out, after they finished with the "shaming". I don't remember how it was called precisely, but they had some sort a list of MSFN members they considered to be really stupid ("retards"). Jody (and you too) didn't deserve such "treatment". Yes, I know he can be quite compulsive at times, but then again, I still think he's a good guy deep inside. Who knows, perhaps they have really bad issues themselves and it's somewhat "cool" for a leftist dude(s) to bash on the grown-ups from normal Western countries ? This is what seems to me, at least.

Will you take screenshots, maybe a short unpacking video ?

Ther's no forum by that name. But there is under : https://msfn.org/board/

legacyfan, our dear dove of "peace", first and foremost, I don't fight anyone, and how do you even know that I replied to you, if you blocked me for the 187786987th time ? Looks like you and Mina7701 need an urgent gathering to decide what stronger measures to take.

1 - Opinions on Kasumi vs. Momiji may differ. 2 - Wrong spelling. You mean MSFN.org ? 3 - You mean my posts are so tempting .... that you can't control yourself ?

But how do you even know that I replied to you, if you blocked me for the 187786987th time ? Weird. Perhaps @jaclaz could shed some light on this awkward situation ? Try to block me again, maybe ? And don't forget to notify everyone again. 187786988th time is a charm ! Consult lagacyfan, also. He's an expert on blocking.

Nah, you'd do just fine, I have trust in you. On the contrary, it's the modern times that "gifted" you with depression in the first place. And why do you call depression "she" ? Is it a female ? I understand English is not your mother tongue. In English it would be "it", not "she". But I guess there are underlying objects in your case, not the grammar per se.

yeah, looks like one ban wasn't enough for @XPerceniol

COMODO

I love your new rank : "Windows vista diehard" !

Did you look here ? I think the original poster from the link below is the updates' leader . https://msfn.org/board/topic/181756-windows-vista-update-repository-until-april-2017/

Look here. https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRAPHICS-BOARD/INTEL/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000-Driver-918103222-64-bit.shtml

Actually this is my discovery, so should be polite to mention me. And I still do not have any answers why the much beloved russian (KGB or not) repackers "missed" out that important part completely. I mean , c'mon , russians are so cool at hacking (that's what they tell us on TV , no ?) , so how come they didn't "notice" ? Actually, they "missed" out lots of telemetry parts and codes generated by 360 Chromium to link each user to the PC he's using at the moment and much , much more... https://msfn.org/board/topic/182304-extreme-explorer-360-chromium-78-86-general-discussion/page/15/?tab=comments#comment-1194253

Whatever suits you ! I respect you choice , even though I shall not follow your example .

Apologies accepted , peace. Yes , I told that before , it is not my default browser. But it may very well become one in the future , once I remove the rest of the bloat. Why ? I'm looking for a solid browser without the need of the Vista's extended kernel because I use Vista without it . As of now , I wrote a programme that launches it in "sandbox mode". Why in quotes ? Because it's not as simple as it may seem , it is actually a hybrid mode with many features disabled/enabled , somewhat similar to what developers do when testing browsers. For example , this programme disables various code generators in 360's engine and I just can't tell everything because it would be too much to type and I'm not fond of typing . In short , I made it's launch blazingly fast and secure and I will not need to manually hex the .dll each time I want to use another version , since the programme will pass on everything I want to the main.exe . I still need to figure out how to disable some ports that left. I wanted to ask why do you use 2206 and not the first version 11.x.x. ? Do you really think chinese are fixing Chromium bugs ? lol

Also , I do not have anything against you personally , but this seems quite strange (just sayin') , I mean about how you insist on using repacked software from russian websites , typing in CAPS and all . I took a look at that site . It is a common russian warez website with tons of repacked commercial software. Is this even allowed by the moderators to redirect to such websites ?

It really feels like something personal . What do you want to say , smth like "Dixel is giving a bad advice" ?! The poster clearly stated to you that he wants to use the original version and it is too hard for him to download from your link , did you see it ? It is his choice . So I'm giving the advice based on his wishes. It is very obvious, if you use another version (repacked) , the outcome will be different , no ? Errorpage.zip and newtab.zip is not connecting to any websites . lol. By deleting it you simply remove the chinese new tab and error warning in their language . Also , simply replacing 360.cn in Hex Editor won't give you the desired result . It would be too easy , wouldn't it ? You definitely need to dig much deeper . They aren't that silly to just left everything in the open ...
