Using the W7 versions of mf.dll, mfplat.dll plus msmpeg2adec.dll and msmpeg2vdec.dll (plus my newest kernel32.dll), I have restored H.264/AAC support to newer Firefoxes. You will have to use a tool like CFF Explorer to change the Operating System and Subsystem Versions from 6.1/6.2 to 6.0 before applying these files to your system. The issues facing later releases of Chromium, as far as I can tell, seem to be rooted in RtlFreeOemString's subroutines, which seem to differ between Vista and 7. With this in mind, I may start tampering with ntdll.dll in spite of its lack of redirect-ability and its digital signature (which other usermode dlls lack; but that changes in Windows 8). If I were to start extending ntdll, you would have no choice but to boot with my version and likely have to disable driver signing enforcement (which is how I run my 2012R2 in order to use my GPU drivers anyway). While I'm at it I could add NtOpenKeyEx (which later Chromiums ask for) as well as RtlQueryPerformanceCounter in order to simplify the process of preparing new Firefoxes. And all of those functions that some installers call when running with my kernel32.dll! And maybe ensure that winSAT works when display drivers use my user32.dll!

Awesome! Can confirm that your method is working for me here on 78 ESR

Can confirm here on ESR 68.10 too Edit: And here's Waterfox Classic 2020.07 Edit: Still getting playback errors with Netflix, despite Widevine component being installed and enabled. Will try a user agent spoof with W7 or W8's user agent and see if that changes anything.

Audacity is a x86 application, so unless you have some x86 extensions, it works on normal Vista

It should be. Each NT6 system file is applicable to all languages, with the mui files doing the hard work.

It is a bit of a precautionary step (I had trouble loading them with my initial modded mfplat.dll and the OS/subsystem minor versions untouched), but yes they do!

I see now . The empty string reference is misleading. Registrar Lite (old 2.00) produces a "better" error "Values of type REG_MULTI_SZ are not allowed to contain empty lines. Remove them?" Technically "empty string" is appropriate, as the value in binary is an actual string, 00 terminated, and a double 00 00 means "end of value", but in default view the Registry editor renders the 00 as "newline", so "empty line" is more descriptive of what you see. Newer Registrar Lite (6.50) removes the "newline" without warning Try this one : http://aezay.dk/aezay/regcmd/ jaclaz

@roytam1 : Website issue/ bug report in latest New Moon 28 offering : Unfortunately, during the latest days, imgur.com have permanently thrust upon us their new, uglier, resource-heavier, mobile-device-targeting, interface, especially while being in their Upload section: After a successful image upload, you are presented with something like: When you click the Get share links button (to get access to "forum-type" link), a Share Options popup successfully emerges: The Copy Link green buttons do work, however, once finished, you can't dismiss the Share Options popup, because the X sign on the top right of it is unresponsive Actually, to get rid of that popup, you have to click on a page point outside of the popup but below its top, which, to say the least, is non-intuitive... <rant>Grrr... modern page layouts, designed for youngsters on smart phones with touch screens... Good ol' desktop computers are dying a horrible death these days... </rant>
