Is Nvidia container service running? Unfortunately I had to enable it, otherwise the settings would reset (Windows 8.0 here)

It says, it allegedly works on Windows 7 using the Ex. Kernel "Vx". And Vista is an absolutely different OS. And we can safely assume it won't work on a bare Windows 8.

Well, I was able to replicate this big on Windows 7, try using only DVI-I, windows 7 glitches out on DVI-D.

Windows has been going downhill since Internet Explorer integration to Windows 98, and it also had ads, known as "the channel bar". XP had the fisher-price theme and pre-SP2 versions would nag about signing up for .NET passport service and other things<LINK>, but nothing compares to the awfullness of Windows 11. It shouldn't have existed in the first place! Who in the world thought moving the right-click on file menu options like rename as some stupid icon was a good idea, and why is the start menu re-designed again and now in the middle of the taskbar and not where it's supposed to have been since Windows 95? It's as if the people who designed it have never even used Windows and have no idea about it! They even removed features such as clock with seconds in the calendar 'app', something even Windows 10 has! I guess they needed extra resources for hoarding more data and telemetry for their stupid overhyped 'AI', even though it existed years ago, but now it's 'trendy', so everything needs to have it.

You are running the New Moon 28 SSE release. I assume your CPU does not have the SSE2 instruction set and is a very old one like mine although my Pentium 4 CPU is equipped with the SSE2 instruction set. The website https://www.auf1.tv can be accessed with New Moon 28 (palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20250222-d849524bd-uxp-e43876ec84-xpmod.7z) but on old, weak computers, it's more of a pain than a pleasure. You should avoid this website, at least on old devices. The page is overloaded with media, loads terribly slowly and uses around 200 MB of RAM. The CPU load is high due to all animations and transitions. I can block them via CSS, and the CPU load immediately becomes normal. But then the news ticker is no longer running, of course. I think such websites should be accessed on modern devices, and the reason for your issue is most probably the lack of the SSE2 instruction set in your CPU which might be necessary to correctly load this website.

Disregard! That was short-lived! Videos are consistently stopping about three and half minutes in then the infamous swirling circle indicating buffering rears its ugly head! One to two hours! You've never been satisfied with anything for so long. I think that's a new record.

What are the improvements in this version vs Windows 7 paint?

On the Mozilla Support website https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/root-certificate-expiration, you can find this announcement: In terms of Window 7 computers, this means that users of Firefox 115 ESR should update their browser at least to version 115.13 ESR to fix certificate problems. As far as I know, the nssckbi.dll file inside the Firefox programme folder defines the default set of trusted root certificates. The more recent this nssckbi.dll file, the more recent Firefox's default root certificates.

FYI, since Firefox 58, Mozilla has changed the files cert8.db/key3.db to cert9.db/key4.db. Therefore, you won't find a cert8.db or key3.db file in the profile folder of Firefox 115..x.x ESR releases. And the certificates are stored in the cert9.db file. This file is generated by Firefox and stored in the profile folder. If it is deleted, it will be immediately generated by the browser again. Firefox also checks the system root certificates and automatically performs some imports. Here is a quotation from a Mozilla website (an important note was made bold by me): If I was on Windows 7 and used Firefox 115 ESR there, I would first update to the latest version (at the moment 115.20.0 from February 2025). This does not improve a rubbish browser , but the certificates it contains should actually be up-to-date. And after performing a backup of the profile folder, one can import certificates until the doctor comes (German saying ) and then check whether it works or not. If not, delete the cert9.db file or restore the profile backup. It's as simple as that.

It doesn't work,,, And yes, I tried with the latest EX Kernel.

Thanks, I don't use torrents, not that I'm against them, just never got used to them. I don't want to share my traffic. I have a very good paid subscription to our local French streaming, it has much better quality than in USA. Edit. No watching climate films then, sorry.

Thanks for reporting! TBH, I didn't expect any further root certificate updates via CAupdater 1.0 or Certificate Updater 1.6. Great news!

Yeah, I know, sucks, right!? hold on, D.Draker is with you, D.Draker is your guiding light, think of me when you're down. Under no circumstances drown deeper into the depression. And to hell with the climate, we btw have rather good winds this year.

One can get tired of exporting one by one very quickly. Let's see, There we have often cases where pics and videos are stored at another website, so even if you export the main (root) website cert, the pics will show empty, the browser will prevent the off-site untrusted (un-certified) connections. Last but not least, many modern AV scanners use your cert store to check the sites and/or your browser's executable. As we see, Tripredacus uses official browsers, perhaps he uses such AV software, too.

This time I agree, the engine is too bloody old anyways. Don't waste time.

Tripredacus is on Win7 (most likely the reason this long abandoned OS is still stuck at the current MS products on MSFN board), the question is only about Win7. How XP is relevant? But I'll answer, for Firefox it doesn't matter which system you run since it has its own cert store. This became the case with newer Chrome, too. But Chrome can use the NT6.0+ local system cert, in addition to its own. Not sure how good this would work on XP. And XP usually fails because it simply doesn't support modern encryption. So you could install and over-install, it will still show no green padlock on XP.

In older Firefox they were also duplicated in your profile directory. Certificates were stored in cert8.db file. Their corresponding keys were stored in key3.db. Probably the case with the new versions, but I don't use FF.

At the moment, I have reverted to the last officially compatible version 1.46. But I will test the 1.56 version again. Thanks for the hint! @feodor2 I moved to the most recent, final version of uBlock Origin which is 1.62 at the moment. The logger works fine in multi-process mode but in single-process mode, the logger popup window is very unstable. Some extensions, scripts and whatever else interfere considerably with the loading and display of the logger popup. It often remains empty. Resizing the logger window helps in some cases. I investigated this further and found that changing the advanced setting loggerPopupType from popup to normal may be a solution. In this case, the logger is opened in a normal window in which it loads fine as far as I could see until now. At least, on my computer with its current configuration. I'll keep an eye on that. P.S.: @feodor2 Now, I have realised what you meant by using the context menu. I have never opened the logger interface via its icon context menu before. Indeed, this also works in both process modes to properly open the logger in a tab or window. However, changing the advanced setting loggerPopupType from popup to normal is of interest for those who prefer only one normal left-click on the logger icon as usual.

Thanks for the hint! Since the version 5.2, I have been using the portable version exclusively. The installer version stopped working as you also noticed. I have now installed DiskGenius 5.6.1.1580 under Windows XP. However, on my old computer, this version needs much longer for starting as the previous versions. I am not sure if it is really fully compatible. I have to observe this version over a longer time.

The four files are now password protected and stops MediaFire from spreading further untruths. That's quite enough for me.

The files were uploaded to MediaFire by me more than two years ago. Only in the last few months they have been flagged as malicious by MediaFire. They are probably using some new scanner that works just as well as Kaspersky.

Just for clarification, the cacert_Updater.exe is not a root certificate updater for the Windows OS. It only updates the cacert.pem certificate bundle inside the ProxHTTPSProxy folder, exclusively the root certificates of ProxHTTPSProxy itself, so to speak. This is a quotation from my main article: That means it does not do the same as the Cert_Updater_v1.6.exe file. For more information, read the section 5.1 of my main article in the first post of this thread.
