Already reported and it will be fixed next version. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/245

And I'm puzzled why that cra_cker removed everything, including their digital signing, but left the opera_crashreporter.exe intact, and even fixed it for older OSes! It's really weird.

I don't see "Admin" by your name.

From my research, if any dependencies are missing and/or suspicious (like redirects), Denuvo kicks in immediately and turns the sandbox in anti-hack mode. This explains why the newly added, properly working mfplat helped.

I'm making this a standalone question, @Dave-H, we need guidance! Because it's really a very thin line. Even mentioning that Russian cr_cker nick is somewhat dangerous for MSFN, any search engine leads directly to his page (it's precise what is shown on that page - "Chrome/Opera cra_ck"). And since Opera is protected with Denuvo (Austria), it may involve legal consequences for MSFN. Are we allowed to even discuss it here? Thanks.

Opera browser is protected with anti-cra_ck/anti-hack protection Denuvo. The russian cra_cker writes about it it on the page which can be found with one click (easily, with the name you gave, but I removed it from your post). Modifying Opera files is illegal, this is one of the reasons I don't post in this topic anymore, despite the fact I have my own ports of Opera for my personal use only.

In terms of compatibility between protection programs, I can confirm that Malwarebytes Premium v3.5.1 is not compatible with either Avast Premier 18.8 or Panda Dome 22.00.00. However, there should be no problems with Malwarebytes Free v3.5.1, as it does not have real-time protection.

Testing all these programs is always a bit problematic for me. I don't use VMs and always install the software to be tested in my real Windows XP partition. But that means only one at a time to rule out possible conflicts or incompatibilities. Therefore, it all takes much longer and is also a little more difficult. Cheers, AstroSkipper

In terms of Protegent Antivirus, there is a review on Softpedia: https://www.softpedia.com/get/Antivirus/Protegent-Anti-Virus.shtml To be honest, I never heard of this program before, though. But it seems indeed to be XP-compatible and quite well known in India (and probably in other eastern countries). Anyway! Another option which has to be checked more deeply.

Yep, I think so too. I give every functioning antivirus or anti-malware program a chance without prejudice. Under Windows XP and Vista, we can no longer be so choosy for lack of alternatives. Subjective sensitivities must be left aside. I had already read that Vir.IT eXplorer Lite is actually very resource-saving and lightweight. Good to hear it's true. I will definitely try it out soon.

I have the same issue and asked about it on GitHub, because I couldn't change the fonts: https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/261

Just a couple more observations about Supermium on 32 bit XP. The GUI font looks a bit rough, I don't know if that can be improved, but it's usable. The good thing is that it happily opens the sites that 360Chome won't now render! I had a bit of a laugh when I came to add an image to a post here, to see this - The file open dialogue looks like something from a 16-bit Windows 98 program! It doesn't work either. Drag and drop does work. The browser is rather slow opening, and a bit slow in use. I won't be abandoning 360Chrome quite yet, but it's still great to have a browser on XP which will open the sites that 360Chrome now has trouble with. Supermium used my 360Chome profile files absolutely fine, which was a big bonus!

I can also replicate this. Does not start first time but does the second. But this repeats after each and every reboot or hibernate. First start is a fail, every start from second onward is fine.

Russian language is on this screen capture, too.

This Pinkerton failed miserably. Every screen capture with Opera, Brave or Chrome Blau******* posts at his github page is in Russian. Detected with Google lens. His OS Windows 7 is translated to Russian as "Korporativnaya". There is a topic where users discuss his racism, also. He called one big, over a billion nation "dirty".

Off-topic: I got them from everywhere in the internet by using the Google search engine. I don't have concrete links for you at the moment though, but you will find them easily on different websites. Use "smileys animated" instead of "emojis" as your search string! However, I thought you are experienced in researching sources. End of off-topic!

@SEDANEH When you have as boot device a Sata-harddisk, that is formatted with MBR and correct settings in Bios for "Legacy" boot, CSM enabled, Security disabled, my xp.iso works for your motherboard Dietmar

I'm not here to convince a tech-savvy like you. there are plenty of links on google that prove you wrong though and I have experienced it myself on Win7 with pagefile disabled. https://smallvoid.com/article/windows-disable-page-file.html

Supermium 32 usues 32-bit code, supermium 64 use 64; 64-bit code uses more memory, because it uses 64-bit words. Think of it this way: One book is written in a language in which all words are exactly 32-letters long. Each word, no matter how simple, is made up of 32 letters. The book becomes a best seller, and is translated into an even stupider language -- one in which every word is exactly 64 letters long. The languages are otherwise identical, so the translation's both accurate and exact, though the translated book is somehow thicker than the original. Why would that be? Edit: of course it's more complicated than this, but 32-bit code will always be lighter. not 50% lighter, but lighter. Not sure what WOW64 does with 32-bit code, so could be totally wrong here.

1. Some systems have this problem but not all, can't figure out what the cause is yet. 2. New versions of Chrome optimize for SSD, so it takes a long time to start on HDD, defragmentation speeds it up a bit, but it's still far away from the startup speed on SSD. 3. Memory consumption is relatively small, depends on the amount of RAM, for example on a netbook with 1GB of memory after startup Chrome uses 300MB, but on a computer with 4GB of memory already 500MB. It also strongly depends on the number of installed extensions, for example one uBlock Origin uses 100MB of RAM. I tested on a similar computer, C2D E6700 4GB RAM, XP x64, 32 and 64 bit version of Supermium. 32 bit version is even a bit faster, but memory consumption is a bit less, so it is not necessary to use 64 bit version on x64 OS.

On XP x64 there is no problem with memory usage.

Thank you for this. That development post was especially interesting. I didn't realize that so much "10-isms" were (unfortunately) implemented with Windows 8.1. I wish I had known before I installed Windows 8.1 on an old laptop! I made a similar mistake.

It's a 3D gaming profile, the one I use for Injustice 2, doesn't work for 2D apps.

I'm sorry, I don't use any store. Try to change your user agent, BTW, I just tried, for me it doesn't even show "add to chrome" button, but no legacy message either.

Vmware SVGA :p Currently I have not any computer with Vista. Edit: After installing win32's mfplat it working with sandbox!

I can take a wild guess, most are based on the same Realtek chip, perhaps that's what the OP meant. Several of these I bought in the past did. Most died very fast. Make sure they are properly cooled.

The database can be updated manually copyng the dat files from current version (2812)

Thanks, I'm looking forward to moving on to Brave 121, where this will finally be fully implemented.

Yours still doesn't work. Uploading screenshots, adding images might be a very hard mission, let me help you. You need to choose the selected image in the browser window and then click on it.

Tried several random games, none worked on the EX-Win7, but worked with Vista-EX.

I think you just need a portable loader: a small program that launches Mypal with a flag telling it to put the profile in its own subdirectory, rather than the default location on C:. @roytam1 wrote one for Pale/New Moon, but it's easy to modify for any Firefox-derived browser, including Mypal 68. I just changed the .txt file to launch "mypal.exe" instead of "palemoon.exe" and am attaching the loader below. As you can see it's pretty small. Extract both of the files in the .7z into the folder you have Mypal.exe in. Make sure Mypal 68 is not running, then copy your current "profiles" folder, which is probably something like C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mypal68\Profiles\<some random name>, to the folder you have Mypal.exe in, and rename the folder "profile" (without the quotes) instead of the random name it has. Now you can put the whole thing on a thumb drive, plug it into any PC, and launch "Portable Loader.exe" instead of "mypal.exe." It will start Mypal 68 for you, using the settings in the "profile" folder on your thumb drive. You can also modify "Portable Loader.txt" to start mypal.exe with any other command-line arguments you want. Portable Loader.7z

Well, unfortunately, you can't always be lucky. In any case, a well-researched, detailed investigation of the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities.

Dear @AstroSkipper, why did you ignore this question? I asked it to ensure if I understood correctly what you said or not. Please respond. Thank you. That comment was actually not meant for you. And a member here will probably decide for himself whether certain contributions require a statement or not. BTW, I never try to say anything, but I say it as clearly as possible, in most cases even crystal clearly. Regarding your reply I didn't say it doesn't matter to me generally, but in most cases it doesn't matter completely to the companies where I am or was a customer. And that has already been the case for a long time, unfortunately. It used to be different, but you can't understand that because of your age. Apart from that, this is all completely off-topic again. We want to move on here. Content that would serve the topic here would be much more important and appreciated.

You're welcome! As @Vistapocalypse already said, this matter was already discussed in the thread "POSReady 2009 updates ported to Windows XP SP3 ENU". All Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities depend massively on the CPU architecture of the computer that is to be protected. I would recommend reading the comments there and getting more information on the internet.
