Those builds are originally for my private use and they are released because of my goodwill that I think they may help others. This bug doesn't affect me and so I don't have big intention on hunting and fixing it. If you want this to be fixed you at least need to find when the problem started to occur. and last but not least, stop gaslighting.

@Goodwin @roytam1 I'm not a professional, I just compile Mozilla based browsers for my personal use and hope for the best. For instance, I'm trying to compile Firefox 13+ with Windows 2000 compatibility. One thing that sometimes (but not always) causes runtime execution failure is clicking on tools -> options -> applications which can cause an error in MSVCR71.DLL. Also, after reverting the commit that broke Windows 2000 compatibility, I had a minor problem that is caused by opening a new tab, and the message displayed on the new tab page was relating to an invalid address. That annoyance was caused by the commit for Mozilla bug 728429, which mandated ASLR on Windows. In order to find that, I had to cherry-pick a range of commits between the one that broke Windows 2000 compatibility, and the one mandating ASLR, then compile the source code a few times to narrow down my search. The point is, if a problem does not exist in one of roytam1's browser builds, then exists on a later browser version, the right thing to do is find out what the last good version, and the first bad version is, then it would be easier to find when the problem started, and what commit caused it. Also, it is possible a bug might not affect everybody.

... It would appear "someone" is reading this thread ; disregard above link (it now 404s), here's the new one: https://github.com/3dyd/pyinstaller-builds/releases/tag/latest (with previous releases (6.16.0) reinstated )

New 6.17.0 releases by 3dyd (and it's a shame every new release overwrites the previous one ; not a good practice if "things" break and one needs to revert ) : https://3dyd.github.io/pyinstaller-builds/

If you ***REALLY*** want your video playback looked into, it's kind of ON YOU to do some LEGWORK in NARROWING IT DOWN. *Shoot the messenger* all you want. But that really is the reality of the situation. We (you!) need to tell roytam "playback WORKS in this month-day-year release, but it is BROKEN one week later with the month-day+7-year release".

You wouldn't have that "problem" if you didn't spend 'all your time' to go through *ALL* posts by your 'favorite people' and post "likes" to content in JANUARY OF 2022 for NO REASON other than it was one of your "favorite people". "Kids these days..." edit: when you're done with all the "likes" for your 'favorite people', I'd kind of suggest you (and the other's that "do this") at least kind of EVEN THE SCORE by doing the SAME for folks like roytam, feodor, tihiy, et cetera.

Hi, I just make a nice hack. I get a lot of Arduino nano for 67 Cent from China. They work under Win10 but not under XP SP3, "Unknown USB device". I use the Arduino IDE ver. 1.8.9 portable, means no installation. It has the exotic USB serial VID_0843&PID_5740. So, I take the win7 driver STM32_vcp_driver.zip from STMicroelectronics which has funny VID_0483&PID_5740. There I edit just the stmcdc.inf file only at this part ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ; VID/PID Settings ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [DeviceList.NT] %DESCRIPTION%=DriverInstall,USB\VID_0843&PID_5740 [DeviceList.NTamd64] %DESCRIPTION%=DriverInstall,USB\VID_0843&PID_5740 Right click on this modded stmcdc.inf "install", and voila, this Arduino nano clone from China works perfect under XP SP3 Dietmar

No matter how many times I tried, I couldn't achieve a good result with it, @NotHereToPlayGames recommended WinReducer, but I don';t know whether it works with 7, sorry. And NTlite is simply awful, in my humble opinion.

Yes, it's the tool I used about a decade ago, thanks for the right link, I can confirm it works the easiest way, even for beginners.

My memory isn't that sharp regarding the subject, I did it about 10 years ago. Here's how they do it these days, fresh article. "How to Inject USB 3.0 Driver into Windows 7 Install Media" https://woshub.com/adding-usb-3-0-controller-drivers-to-windows-7-install-media/

It will never see the USB with Win7, all is very simple, Win7 doesn't have USB 3.0 drivers, so you need to integrate them first into the ISO. I remember it was done with Gigabyte tool, back in the day.

No, in step 3 there are three urls related to MU. Maybe you have missed it.

@maile3241 Where is it missing? In my third step I already wrote to add it to Trusted zone of IE. Maybe a little bit more explanation, please!

And this is a certificate updater to get the most recent root certificates: https://msfn.org/board/topic/175170-root-certificates-and-revoked-certificates-for-windows-xp/?do=findComment&comment=1095349

@ExtremeGrief Sorry, I should do nothing. I am not the author of these packages and patches. I am a user like you and have examined my problems by restoring MU. This little guide some posts above is the result of my examinations to help other users. And once again I "should" do nothing. But you should reflect on how to speak to a member. First read the whole thread and then you will understand.

@Dave-H Maybe perform all steps in my new post: As I told you I had a lot of troubles to restore MU in my system. I had all error codes someone could get. I think your error code has been one of them. Maybe you have a BIOS date/time problem due to low cmos battery but I don't think so. My advice: Do all the steps once again and do not miss anyone! You know Windows is very often a mystery.

I have reinstalled these four updates flawlessly. I get a fully loaded Microsoft Update site using HTTPSProxy (that's very good ) but when searching updates I get error code 0x80072F78 again. I tried to load it a several times. See my screenshot https://imgur.com/xOfqchc
