They are in the WinSxS directory. I could probably try to pull them out if I felt adventurous. c:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_wpdmtp.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_7b8f374aa061a3e8\ WinUsb.sys and WUDFRd.sys are installed. They do other things too.

Is it possible to set a sound alert that plays when an SMS arrives like on a conventional phone? I have a Showme Redmi 14C (Android 15). In Settings > Sound & Vibration there is a category called "Other notifications and reminders". SMS apparently fall under this. The problem with this is that there is a lot of notification spam, and they all make the same sound. Software updates, most apps ask you to show notifications, a flashlight app that shows a notification that the flashlight is on. I have turned off some but others still remain. Can I set sound for just SMS? The sound customization is really lacking. There is no "ascending" volume, which make the ring start quieter and rise (in case the phone is in my proximity already). I need to bake this into the MIDI file.

Maybe you have a driver for this MTP protocol. I have Server 2008 R2 which doesn't have Microsoft's multimedia stuff, which is all terrible. I don't want to install the Desktop Experience pack. I am new to smartphones. In the past you usually had to install a whole "Nokia suite" to access files on a phone. The FTP server works really well. I use it all the time to send files from one computer to another. All my computers have FileZilla Server installed. Although, it can't see any system directories, which Total Commander for Android can. Wi-Fi is a bit slow, but ok. I also had to go into Settings > Apps > WiFi FTP Server > Battery. And set it to no restrictions to keep the server running while it is minimized.

Not enough expansion slots for separate network/sound/videoadapter, considering that a video card usually covers 2 slots if it is any good.

Out of these choices I picked an FTP Server. I couldn't find the FTP Server Ultimate. But I got an WiFi FTP Server. It works without installing anything new to my computer. A bit slow for modern times ramping up to about 5 MB/s, but no setup time. My phone is not rooted. Can I do something else useful with "ADB" to make it worthwhile having like hack the phone or disable things? I am not sure if what is called a Xiaomi Unlock means the same as rooting. I need an account with them and log in and ask them for unlock. The unlock tool wouldn't work with the old version the Windows web browser on Server 2008 R2. An SD card is really really tiny and is extracted together with the SIM chip. It would probably get broken soon. I think the disk had to be suspended when enabling mass storage device mode. And the modern phone always wants to access the disk.

I got my first contemporary smartphone. A Showme Redmi 14C running HyperOS 2 (Android 15). I am not impressed by how many hoops I have to jump through to connect it to the computer. When first connected, it showed in the Windows 2008 R2 device manager as "Redmi 14" of course without a driver. After I enabled developer mode by tapping on the version number and enabled file transfer in developer options, it now shows in the device manager as "MTP", which I guess stands for Media Transfer Protocol. The smartphone is still patially "locked" whatever that means and I am not allowed to access it fully. In my previous phone running Android Gingerbread I had to pull down the top bar to enable USB Mass Storage. It was a sort of hidden feature that I had to Google for. It then appears as a USB stick without any driver needed. But not so much with the new smartphone. Can I use this MTP protocol without installing bloated software? On Windows Server 2008 R2. (Not any current sofware that requires Windows 10) What other easy methods for transferring files are there?

That's how it was until recently. But full size boards with enough slots for everything have become uncommon and expensive. Now even powerful systems for games are built on a micro-ATX board. Video, sound and network are still on cards. I think you can find some USB but not very common.

No, they don't show up in this case. If I skim the other writeups, I can see how they should have triggered the "safety police" but apparently did not, which is not fair.

Suppose you come to this forum and read something that sends your proverbial blood pressure up: that your favorite web browser sucks, feeds Chinese hackers and using WinXP is a threat to national security. You write a moderate rebuttal and everyone ignores it because they really can't see it. The AI has decided that using old software is unacceptable. You come back after a week, write something again including the word "boot.ίnί" and get a silly error. You remove all sensitive words, then obfuscate the word "sυcκs" and it still doesn't work. Would you really come back and continue to read some BS without being able to respond? I would just use a search engine in case I had a problem to solve and not read everything.

Going to the YouTube site has become almost pointless because of the inability to comment. This issue may seem like it has gone away, but it's just encountered somewhat more rarely. If I look from another account,the comment isn't there, and I choose to edit a shadowbanned comment, it says "error" in red type and the comment disappears. Trying to get it to stick takes a long time (while waiting on the site on an old PC) and is usually unsuccessful. Removal of key words or their obfuscation with Greek letters or periods doesn't work. The site's search feature is horrible, feeding the same titles repeatedly, and the performance is of course down at the bottom. I suspect that watching on YouTube-DL is one contributing factor for the censorship. The system considers me a spammer who hasn't watched anything. Another factor is the controversy level of the topic, like politics, war, nationalism, nutrition, drugs, viruses, gender, and such. Comments seem less likely to stick there.

Corruption in the original Resource Hacker (before "FX") could be avoided if you saved-as to a new file instead of saving over the existing file repeatedly. The default GUI is already pretty compact. Disable the Luna theme and the task pane in Explorer for 640*480 resolution.

I'm getting old. How is there a sound card inside an Intel processor? Where does it output the audio? Only on HDMI?

So it can read memory from Supermium itself right, not crash other programs by writing to their memory? I'd be more worried if it could crash my PC since I run as administrator. Could one really make a gain out of this reliably? Memory addresses change.

Another issue that may pop on XP SP1 systems is an incompatibility with an embedded XML "manifest" in executable files. This manifest says that program works with Windows version X,Y,Z and if it requires admin rights. With a new manifest containing a lot of things, Windows XP SP1 may BSOD. This can be solved by copying a later version of sxs.dll (KB921337) into the system directory.

There was a Corkami Trampoline DLL for running applications on SP1 (but not those that require SP3 with GetLogicalProcessor... ). I used it for a long time. But today it's time to reinstall a later version of XP/Server2003 if the PC is fast enough to load these web browsers. SP1 was good for like 256 MB of RAM or less.

Does this promise anything more than has been possible in Server 2003 without patching?

It seems to work. I can add [language=en] to my existing format query. It seems to also download videos that are not in English (at all) instead of failing. Lately many videos don't download. It gives one of these error messages: an experiement is forced to use SABR, or all TV formats use DRM. It then proceeds to download a very big VP9 file without sound. I need to watch the downloader dosbox to see if the error happens, cancel and try again, perhaps in 720 pixel height to get a good video.

Can you download videos that are in another language but have an alternate audio stream in English? Sometimes Youtoube shows a title in English, I download the video for later viewing and I find that I can't understand anything.

I can pass the anime girl hash quicker than CloudFlare in New Moon, and it doesn't come back for some time. Cloudflare doesn't like when I switch to another application while it is milling. It wants me to keep it in the foreground and look at it.

Currently CatsXP says that Windows 7 is required. Are they gonna up that soon following other software? These features were later copied into other browsers or extensions. But Opera had them in the 2000s first. Opium and Supermium don't have troubles with Cloudflare. Some sites have a hard security mode, like Rate Your Music, and I just have to click the box every few hours. Other sites require it less frequently.

So there are voting buttons on YouTube and Facebook. Curiously how in New Moon the icons for negative votes don't immediately show up. They may appear after a delay. It is still possible to press those buttons. In Facebook, only the thumbs up and heart show. Among the negatives is laughter, sadness and anger (nothing worse). It looks like a push not to use those. Using New Moon in these places has gotten too slow, but I still stick to it because I don't want to open another browser all the time.

It was the best browser of its time with some much functionality that requires plugins on other browsers. Selection from within links, selective disablement of javascript, download resuming, urfilter, importing of certificates, saving of forms when pressing the back button. I still use new Opera (Opium) because it is at least as good as other Chrome browsers, and they added a few things to it.

Often you need to turn off javascript after the page is loaded, or it won't load right without it. I still use Opera 12 (very old) which allows this without an extension.

I search youtube on Google site:youtube.com. Search on the site itself brings up very approximate results that repeat. Too bad num=X argument just stopped working on Google. Maybe they read MSFN.

The most annoying situation is when I open a video, wait to skip the advertisements, then immediately seek on the timeline to a spot of interest without watching more than a couple seconds, and another set of advertisements then play. I can't say that I remember those advertisements. With autoplay disabled, YouTube shows a static picture with some writing that doesn't burn into memory. I still have to wait to skip it. I think the new Opera browser was shown, but maybe that was a sponsored segment. Since the blocking on YouTube is now very complicated, I haven't even invenstigated what I need for it, and keep that thing updated.
