Most sadly, another end is pretty close : https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/15712 Soon-ish, no more youtube downloads without a JS runtime enabled (and without passing logged-in YT cookies, only the WEB-S client (HLS) formats would become available - these do require the JS runtime, though) ...

I remember, back in 2015, there was a virus that asked to prove whether you're "not" a robot, when someone tried to delete it. The same what Cloudflare does. Conclusion: Cloudflare is a virus. Don't visit. Trying to parrot @D.Draker's conclusions. I know, it's nowhere near the original, but I try.

OpenSSL 3.6.1

upstream #2895 is fixed with a big help from Mr.Q and better javascript random() will be available on both 32 and 64 bit build later.

I am on-topic. The topic name is "Firefox and Chromium running on Windows 7 by e3kskoy7wqk" It references the generic Chromium. Ungoogled is also Chromium, and more to the point, the author e3kskoy7wqk releases it. Let me help you find it. https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Chromium-for-windows-7/releases/tag/ungoogled-chromium_140.0.7339.127 So please stay on-topic.

What about ungoogled? I want ungoogled.

Why would I upvote something that doesn't work with yahoo and paypal? Never heard before! This topic caster helped ne a lot. I want to upvote him, sorry you're not happy with it. I'll give you a like for agreeing with an obvious statement though. If you're on github, if you like this browser, help us to reconvince the creator.

What to do so he could reconsider? Organise donations, maybe? I don't want to use Supermium at all costs. Supermium is already old when released. This one was always up to date.

Yes, it works, I was assuming to get a portable ZIP version, but I extracted the mini_installer.exe, which also did just fine. Sorry, I can't add any more likes today, but I'll do it later.

I can't login to yahoo from any browser anymore. They tell "try a different device", on the loop. Related?

Thanks! I can only see some patches in the chromium-131.0.6740.0.zip folder. I don't know what to do with them.

Please provide with a link where the author clearly states his softwaie is Open Source, and he (she?they?, if they work as a team) doesn't/don't mind it gets redistributed/modified.

@Dave-H Ok, sill same error. The good news error code 0x80072f8f solved the bad you stay at error code 0x801901f6. In which way did you disable Malwarebytes? Can you restart computer without any modules in RAM related to Malwarebytes? Just to exclude that Malwarebytes is not involved. You can do that with Sysinternals Autostarts.

@Dave-H Ok, thanks for more details! But I don't know your last received error code. You didn't mention. One thing is clear. Your system has become more similar to mine which can be seen in your log: 2022-01-30 18:12:42:328 1864 cd8 Misc = Module: D:\WIN-NT\system32\wuaueng.dll 2022-01-30 18:12:42:328 1864 cd8 Service ************* 2022-01-30 18:12:42:328 1864 cd8 Service ** START ** Service: Service startup 2022-01-30 18:12:42:328 1864 cd8 Service ********* 2022-01-30 18:12:42:343 1864 cd8 Agent * WU client version 7.6.7600.256 2022-01-30 18:12:42:343 1864 cd8 Agent * Base directory: D:\WIN-NT\SoftwareDistribution 2022-01-30 18:12:42:343 1864 cd8 Agent * Access type: No proxy 2022-01-30 18:12:42:343 1864 cd8 Agent * Network state: Connected But here is your problem: 2022-01-30 18:14:23:468 576 65c Misc WARNING: DownloadFileInternal failed for https://www.update.microsoft.com/v11/3/legacy/windowsupdate/selfupdate/wuident.cab: error 0x801901f6 So your error code still seems to be 0x801901f6. My guess is that something interferes the download of wuident.cab. Disable Malwarebytes and your internal firewall before accessing MU. Then provide error code and log! I think we are close to solve it.

@Dave-H Ok, reading instructions and manuals before using a new program is mandatory. In program folder of HTTPSProxy you have to pull HTTPSProxy.exe on top of launcher.exe using left mouse button to start program in SysTray. And I hope you have installed only one HTTPSProxy CA and cleaned up your Certs folder. Furthermore update cacert.pem by clicking entry in SysTray menu. But I need more answers. I asked you a lot. What about your firewall?. Check out all!. Your screenshot of proxycfg looks as it should be. That's fine. What's going on with your Windows Update Log file? And so on. Inform me completely if you want get rid of these errors! And please upload a readable log file!

@Dave-H I found a comment to error code 0x801901F6 I think you have connection errors due to proxy misconfiguration or incorrect use. Try following after command line prompt: proxycfg If HTTPSProxy is disabled it should look like this: https://imgur.com/od7GPHJ "Direktzugriff <kein Proxyserver>" means "Direct access <no proxy server>". If it doesn't look like that then enter proxycfg -u And check your HOSTS file to make sure you don't have any static IP entries for the Microsoft/Windows Update web site listed in the file. Here what Germans say if they get in trouble translated for you: It always gets worse before it gets better.

@Dave-H Here are my advanced IE settings. Please check! https://imgur.com/83qHpbd And check if HTTPSProxy and IE are not blocked by Malwarebytes Premium and your firewall. Make exclusions or better disable them temporarily when accessing MU. By the way which firewall do you use? Built-in or a firewall software? My security combination is Avast Premier and Windows 10 Firewall Control XP. The firewall feature in Avast is not installed. Web protection temporarily disabled. Malwarebytes Premium for Windows 3.5.1.2522 (official last version for XP) didn't work properly in my system (very buggy!) so I went back to Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.2.1.1043 for on demand scan which works fine.

Hello , really !?!? I think 512MB RAM is more like 2004 - 2005 , sorry if I'm mistaken , though . I'm from Europe . In 2007 we had 1gb DDR2 as a bare minimum even on cheap models. At our local stores most were 2GB and expensive ones - 4GB . I had Toshiba Satellite A50 with 512 of RAM in 2004 and it was NOT a gaming laptop , it was a budget model with Intel graphics and a tiny ATA HDD.

Exactly , how could you ! xD

After switching the famous "superfetch" off it was fantastic , fast , but not as fast as on Siemens , I think because Siemens used more advanced German HDDs , I even think they still in production labeled Fujitsu, yes. I mean Fujitsu HDDs , not some other 3rd party brands . I also think you should add Sony , they were good and also used Fujitsu HDDs (at least some of them) , they were expensive , I agree .

Hi , I may have some news . Yesterday I was testing ALL Opera versions with the newest Kernel (by redirection) and the last that worked with extensions was 47 , 48 didn't say anything at all , but refused to instal the extensions due the known "locale" thingy (but launched anyway) . The most interesting part , starting from 49 it began to want "ResolveLocaleName not found in KERNEL32" , does that ring a bell ? See "LocaleName" , perhaps this is what used to identify the locale ? Also , any chance to add the missing to shell32 for newer Operas ? "SHAssocEnumHandlersForProtocolByApplication" and the other one.

I have nothing against Dell , I had a Dell Vostro laptop with Vista x86 (sorry , don't remember the exact specs, it was in 2008 . Intel CPU (something Core Duo , 4GB RAM DDR2 , 250GB HDD) , But everything inside was NOT made by Dell . Also, I had several Dell monitors and not sure if Dell even made the enclosure . The main parts had Samsung label on them . I think you should definitely add Siemens to your list. The majority of Vista PCs in Europe were Siemens , most of them Made in Germany , using German technology and their own design and layout (unlike HP and many others). Their motherboards were also developed in Germany. It's so sad it's in the past , though I've read the Siemens PCs became just "Fujitsu" and still being produced in Germany from a high quality parts , I can't comment on this because I've never had them.
