It's no troubles at all, I understand, I'm just really trying to help you.

360Chrome v13.5 Build 1030 Redux I inadvertently corrupted my original Build 1030 series when working on Builds 2022 and 2036 so this is starting brand new with several lessons learned from later versions, including 2044. I've always much preferred Build 1030 over anything "newer". They all technically use the same v86 Chromium engine "under the hood".

You still need to follow all instructions, including the signing, despite what you already did. People need to follow instructions precisely. Still having doubts? Read below. @win32checked my modded driver and confirmed "the byte sequences in the other thread are valid for modding the driver". https://msfn.org/board/topic/181612-wip-windows-vista-extended-kernel/?do=findComment&comment=1235379 I'm sorry, I don't know how to assist your further. Everything you need to know on how to mod had been said in the thread already. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184056-breakthrough-p2-new-pascal-special-microsoft-nvidia-driver-port-for-vista-x64/

@Outbreaker! WU/MU works perfectly using Proxy's PopMenu. If it doesn't work for you, then you did unfortunately something wrong. Everything is detailed and sufficiently documented. My advice: Do all from scratch following the instructions! BTW, you didn't answer my questions. One of them for example was: In the unexpected case that you still have problems despite my extensive instructions, I need more detailed information to help you in a reasonable and problem-oriented way. An exact description of the problem with version information, screenshots and so on. But, as I said, everything should actually run immediately and without any problems. Cheers, AstroSkipper

You have to follow the instructions in my manual inside the archive. If Proxy's PopMenu doesn't show icons, and the menu items don't work, then it is not properly installed. You have to start the executable Configure PopMenu.exe first to set up Proxy's PopMenu. See under the section 7.5 or 9.3.2 (according to the version you are using) of my article ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use! A detailed documentation, titled Documentation of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu 3V1 (or 3V3), can be found in the subfolder Docs of each program package and should be read before using ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu in any case. The installation, all features and more are described there. The process of installation and setting up is actually very easy. In any case, my package has been tested deeply, and it works as described.

Agreed. Though I would reword that to say third-party javascript. (no space, I read java scripts with a space and think Java code) MSFN tends to be the "net savvy" crowd that don't allow third-party javascripts "willy-nilly".

While not clicking is good, I think more dangers come from java scripts. I at first wrote licking instead of clicking.

Yes, Pascal is where all that heavy mining began, OP, be on your guard when selecting the card.

No, it's more like a rumour. From what I know, the problem with NVCPL causing this conflict still haven't been resolved by @win32in the later drivers, win32 please correct me if I missed the latest developments. NVCPL simply won't start (not the driver) and this causes the hang Orbit. I have a board with x58 chip, and this driver from the part 1 of my tutorial works with it. So, as another idea, you try my driver that doesn't depend on win32's ex-kernel. It works with 1080ti the OP of this topic asked about. https://msfn.org/board/topic/183688-breakthrough-new-nvidia-drivers-ported-to-vista-tutorial/ There's proof with screens it works. Want more HQ detailed screenshots? Then write to Tripredacus and demand my limit to be extended to at least 20mb. I, as the real content poster, deserve it, if he refuses, then all of you would have to entertain yourself with what's already posted, since my limit was up several years ago.

Of course the final decision is yours, but I'd encourage you to at least try uBlock Origin. If you hate it, you can always uninstall it. It was written for efficiency, so it's likely you'll find that it actually speeds up your browsing more than slowing it down, since your browser will no longer try to download oodles and gobs of unwanted garbage. The latest non-WE version of uBO that I have is 1.16.4.31b2, which IIRC was posted by @AstroSkipper in his thread: There may be a later version by now; I haven't checked recently.

1080ti >> yes, acid colours! 980ti >> sucks and too old (soon to be a decade old), I agree titan x maxwell >> https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gtx-titan-x.c2632 titan x 2016 >>Never heard of such thing, but if you know what that is, please find it on techpowerup and give us the link. titan xp >> Tripredacus banned the only one knowledgeable member, the owner of Titan XP who provided us with good consultations (no, not for posting crakcs, if you wonder), so we'll never now for sure. With the current members - seems no one can answer this question with 100% certainty.

Nothing out of the ordinary, Opera was a paid browser, too. But with Opera we knew where it comes from. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(web_browser) With this browser, I support the author, nothing wrong with it being paid, though he'd have to be more transparent.

My iguana went straight trough the window today. No damage to the iguana, in case either of you's wondering. It's the window on the second floor of my house. Looks like someone throw a piece of furniture from the inside of the house, nothing that interesting, but the fact iguanas can do that - is. Some may wonder why, simple - mating season, hormones.

You're welcome, friend. Keep in mind, I took a random IP from the range he pointed us to. It's better to see and know the actual IP from that range he saw.

Increase the page file.

I had the same warning with all of the 360Chrome iterations. A coincidence?

Hello @Outbreaker! Which version of the TLS proxies are you using? Starting the proxy by applying ProxHTTPSProxy_PSwitch.exe means you have installed an older version such as ProxHTTPSProxy REV3e or my package ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu 3V1. These versions are TLS 1.2 proxies and not up to date. You should actually use one of the TLS 1.3 proxies, either ProxyMII (20220717) aka ProxHTTPSProxy 1.5.220717 or my most recent package ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3. Of course, the old TLS 1.2 proxies should still work, too. Under the account Local Computer? If not, it won't work. Did you already read my article Complete guide for restoring IE's access to WU/MU website using ProxHTTPSProxy or HTTPSProxy in Windows XP? The loops are presumably a result of a misconfiguration of the IE (see step 4). If all steps of my guide are performed properly, it will definitely work. Here is my list with all other working methods to access WU or MU successfully: Kind regards, AstroSkipper

Just thought I would stop in and say hi on my 20 year anniversary.

lol, truth be told I started doing that on my local archives back when MSFN had a GIGANTIC "donate money or risk MSFN shutting down" banner plastered on the forum. I had (still visit) a couple other forums on standby in case MSFN did shut down.

Yes, I agree, it's excellent, but it's strange that the file name has "MSFN" in it this time. 😅

Thank you, today I'm not very functional so I'll stay quiet I think. Good to see you around again.

welcome back @Xperceniol you have been missed here

thank you for explaining, good enough for me. archiving 2036 and moving to the new 1030. nice work on the hamburger menu and getting all the fixes merged. can also report this version respects the cleartype settings on my system. all in all, very impressive work!

I find 1030 to manage RAM much better than 2036. I have also had disappearing fonts in 2036. Extremely rare and only while editing Stylus userstyles. But have never had disappearing fonts in 1030. There is no "night and day" difference between the two, I just find 1030 to be much more MATURE and STABLE of a product, with nothing "added" upstream that we here at MSFN just remove anyway. 1030 on the left. 2036 on the right. Two identical VMs with identical tasks performed in 1030 versus 2036. ie, note Process Hacker reporting Page Faults - in a perfect world, this number would be ZERO. 2036 will "fault" twice as often as 1030.

An interesting watch indeed! Particularly the notion that a "sandbox" OPENS UP VULNERABILITIES that would otherwise NOT EXIST if the computer was not running "anti-virus". The whole notion of Zero Day has always been enough for me to NOT run anti-virus - a heuristic scan cannot protect you from something it does not know how to find! And BINGO! As the presenter stated, "The reason I don't get malware is that I don't click on things, I don't download attachments". We called this "net savvy" back in the day. Also, as the presenter states, "I don't just download apps I get from the internet, especially free apps, and then run them without making sure they are authentic." It's also why I will not use a web browser that doesn't have a "status bar" - it is an ingrained habit to hover, eye down to status bar, read status bar, spin some brain gears based on that read, then go from there.

Enhancer for YouTube still works for me. I can no longer pipe YouTube through Proxomitron "and" Enhancer but relying on Enhancer "plus" uMatrix continues to work quite well. My uMatrix doesn't allow anything outside of youtube.com and googlevideo.com domains.

@66cats, a small clarification to avoid confusions, NVCPL and all of the functions work with in all of the drivers I posted, with either Keppler, Pascal or Maxwell, except G1030.

Enhancer for youtube, and all ad-blocking monkey scripts I have tried (among the most recently updated) seem not to work. YT is ok in 360chrome and mypal, with the last working version of enhancer for youtube. It stutters in st52 (or else it stops, probably wherever an ad is scheduled, and stays there until hitting space twice -one to pause the frozen rendering, the other to start playing again). In vanilla profile, without ad control, yt works well, if for well you mean with ads.

My answer is reasonable as one can ever make. When D.Draker writes something, it means the information is solid. My military background demands to be disciplined, thus don't spread fake news. He can draw whatever amount of red arrows he wants, it doesn't change the facts. There are no quotes at the place where he drew that red arrow. Here's proof that quotes aren't needed, directly from Microsoft, about Edge, with one of the same flags/features he uses. Link to the source: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/you-can-now-enable-encrypted-client-hello-encrypted-sni-or-esni/m-p/3600372 I'm still waiting for the public apologies and his attacking/offensive post, the one where he makes a mockery out of me, to be edited.

The stylesheets are not intended to be installed completely. You choose what you want to change and what you like. I only use a very few of them. Custom CSS stylesheets must be permanently adapted to new Firefox versions. Stylesheets that worked in a previous version do not necessarily have to work in the subsequent version. Mypal 68 is based on Firefox 68.12.0esr from August 2020. The regular Firefox 68 version (not esr) was released in July 2019. Thus, you have to look mainly for custom CSS stylesheets published from July 2019 to August 2020. Search for tabs_below_navigation_toolbar_fx68.css which depends on tabs_below_navigation_toolbar_fx65.css which in turn depends on tabs_below_navigation_toolbar.css! That means you have to copy all three files into your profile subfolder chrome\CSS and import the tabs_below_navigation_toolbar_fx68.css file only in your userChrome.css file via the following command: @import "./css/tabs_below_navigation_toolbar_fx68.css"; The good is that once you found working stylesheets they will work in Mypal 68 probably forever. Is mostly finished. It is not for public as I have not changed the name from Firefox to Mypal. Replace the string Firefox by the string Mypal in all files using the "replace all"-function of an editor as, for example, Notepad++! This is very easy and can be done in minutes. In any case, your compatriots would surely appreciate a working German language pack for Mypal 68.13.x. Cheers, AstroSkipper

For some reason I find holidays a trigger as I have no family in the area, not that I would want that (the traditional thanksgiving dinner table where people ask "Please Pass The Potatoes") but even I get absorbed by society's brainwashing; just sometimes though and I wear the badge of loner very well.

Did you notice, @j7n and @VistaLover, that vertical scrolling is indeed possible on those sites by using the arrow-up/down and page-up/down keys (at least in St.52 , be sure to click on the canvas first to ensure it gets the focus)? Hence that sabotage/discrimination of UXP browsers could be estimated only as partial successful

It turns out that it is supposed to be a commercial product: https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/29#issuecomment-1821936051

The window was tough and with thick glass, like we have here in Holland, it was closed.

I also haven't been able to find any connections opened to Chinese IP addresses, much unlike 360 Chrome. The "expires in one year" is a restriction in the application itself. If you try running the browser in August 2024 or later, it will silently crash. However, there is a logic error in the timebomb so it will run for the first seven months of the following years. However I think a patch for it would be technically a crack as it is proprietary software with restrictions on launching.

Supermium moves to the stable branch (version 119/120) at the end of this month when the next release will be made. This should reduce the number of upstream-inherited bugs. GDI rendering should be perfected for this release as well and there will be an option to disable prompts for "unsafe downloads" (and avoid having a sample of the downloaded file possibly being sent to Google). The GDI option in particular will have improved rendering of remote fonts over Vista-level DirectWrite.

Thank you! Of course you know better.

I'm not sad anymore just emotional since Covid, but thank you and you were on my mind while I was away. Thank you, my friend for caring.

Ok! That looks much better. Now, you have a problem with accessing the Microsoft Windows Update page. As I already wrote, you should follow my guide Complete guide for restoring IE's access to WU/MU website using ProxHTTPSProxy or HTTPSProxy in Windows XP. This guide is well-tested, too, and after doing all steps, MU should actually work. The problem with the loops is probably caused by a misconfiguration of the Internet Explorer. Please read especially step 4 of my guide (but all other steps are also important, of course)!

Update notification! Both versions of my Root Certificate and Revoked Certificate Updater for offline use have been updated and are now of 04/25/2023. You can find them in the section 11.2.4. Downloads related to Root Certificate Updates in the first post of this thread. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Update notification! The Root Certificates have been updated and are now from 25-04-2023. Here is a screenshot: Therefore, my self-created, offline Root Certificate Updaters in the section 11.2.4. Downloads related to Root Certificate Updates (in the first post of this thread) will also be updated as soon as possible. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Here is a screenshot taken from CAupdater after successfully updating the root certificates: Cheers, AstroSkipper

Don't waste your time on him, he's clearly here for trolling. Btw, 5800X3D it's Zen 3 architecture with increased L3 size through vertical stacking.

Looks like the best idea would be to put you just on ignore because you are behaving like a troll. This is just another confirmation of trolling.

D.Draker, care to explain what is purpose of your presence on this section of forum? Because to me, looks like you're an annoying Windows Vista fan, who is trying intentionally p*** off Windows 7 users.

Sure you can. There are people, who still use Windows XP and Vista. First, I want to clarify that people come here, in order to help reviving these older operating systems. It‘s in no ones interest to treat them like „abandoned ware“ here. There are masterminds like @win32, who put so much effort into developing Kernels for older systems, so that we can run our favorite OS, no matter how old it is, nowadays. In my opinion, people who do nothing but repeat what the richy rich companies like M$ or Google say and oppositely try to make everyone not use those OS, have nothing to do here. No logic input, only helpless statements. If we wanted to hear „give up, move to Windows 10 everyone“, we wouldn‘t come here! There are tough times waiting for us now. As far as I know, Chrome 109 is really the last one for Windows 7 and no methods exist to run newer ones. I am not using Windows 7, but 8.1, which can indeed run Chrome 110. It took @win32 also a lot of effort to develop an Extended Kernel for Windows Vista, which made us run newer Chrome versions on it. You have to wait for an extended Kernel for Windows 7 as well and until then, I would simply use Firefox (or Chrome till February 2023). As far as Security Updates, you already mentioned PosReady 7

I have to disagree. I do test my builds, but only preliminarily tested. I just can't test every aspects each time I build.

Thank you for all that incredible work you do! Even in peace times I cannot imagine how in the world you manage to keep up that enormous workload, looking at those endless long changelogs for several different browsers, even incredible if someone could work 24h per day on them. And recently even discovered, completely shocked, that even 1 single commit, 1 little changelog line, can consist of 800 changed files! Let alone now in current semi-war conditions, with a lot greater sorrows as update schedules, and much less time too. Once more, I'm stunned. But really much more important now is that you hopefully remain as safe as possible. My thoughs are with all the amazing people in your country.
