Yes, it is important to always use the same name for Kstub823 - Kstub823 or Kexstubs or stubs - and not different names, that doesn't work. But std,kexbasen,kexbases,kstub823 or contents=Kstub823,std,kexbasen,kexbases does not matter in this case. There is no need to overwrite any definitions. I said MSwin98forever contents=Kstub823,std,kexbasen,kexbases before. This is the order I use.

I haven't tested the files from sendfile.su/1624653. Files may be corrupted. I always used the original files from sourceforge.net and topics KernelEx 4.5 Core Updates (4.5.2016.17) and Kext: DIY KernelEx extensions.
-
The registry entries of LZDLL.reg must definitely be removed . API-MS-Win.reg entries shouldn't harm your system.
-
Now look at the Help page on the KernelEx Wiki. Do you have the correct unicows.dll version in your system folder? Ok, now I saw your upload. I recommend to reinstall KernelEx. It seems you chose the third party installer for the core updates (24). This installer isn't tested here! It installs incompatible reg files of version 18! And delete exact these registry entries of LZDLL.reg and API-MS-Win.reg before you install KernelEx again.

Please check, if Opera 12.02 or 11.64 (Win2000SP4) run to verify 4.5.2. That's not needed, if you can run Firefox 31 or 35.
-
Did you run KernelEx\verify.exe?
-
Does Firefox 31 or 35 run on your machine? Why don't you easy set XPSP2 on the KernelEx Tab of the Firefox.exe file? KernelEx supports IsProcessorFeaturePresent. So I think there is something wrong with your KernelEx installation.
-
KERNEL32.DLL:VerSetConditionMask: This happens, if the exe isn't set Win2000SP4 or higher. KernelEX supports VerSetConditionMask. Make sure that the Firefox.exe and the portable exe are set to XPSP2 or XPSP3.

Hallo MSwin98forever, everything important is summarised with links to the associated posts on the first page. Sure, it isn't that easy. It is more to do than to run a single setup. I recommend to proceed step by step, run the improved Firefox 31.8 for 98/ME, then try to get 45.9 running and finally 52.9 to keep error possibilities lower. Please read topics "KernelEx 4.5 Core Updates (4.5.2016.17)" and "Kext: DIY KernelEx extensions". 1. Install KernelEX 4.5.2 (see Requirements Firefox 24 - 35 - only one Setup - reboot required) Then install the core updates (see Requirements Firefox 24 - 35 / download the files and replace files by the new core files ( Folder Windows/KernelEx). You can't replace used/loaded files on the running win98. There are different possibilities to do this: 1. Boot the machine from a live CD (DVD/usb stick) 2. Or possibly you have other operation systems on the HDD (Dual Boot). 3. Easiest method - Boot into safe mode (F8) and replace the files. 4. Boot DOS and copy the files into the KernelEx folder.) 2. For Firefox 42 - 48 you need the mentioned system dll files and the KernelEx Extension Kext (ini and dll). Paste both Kext files into the KernelEx folder. Add Kstub823 to the Core.ini: [BASE] contents=Kstub823,std,kexbases,kexbasen Restart required. 3. Firefox 49 -52: See the corresponding requirements and note the updated Kext ini file. Merge the reg file into the registry, paste UCRTBASE.DLL 10.0.14393.33 of Firefox 52.9 or version 10.0.14393.795 into the system folder and correct the dependentlibs.list. Have fun doing handicrafts. I'm running Firefox 53. The Xul.dll of Mozilla Aurora (53.0a2) is compatible with my system. New issue: It's not possible to open a file via menu (File>Open). But I can install e.g. PlainOldFavorites by drag and drop. SHCreateItemFromParsingName (stubbed/kexbases)? And I can't set a download folder (options/General - Downloads). Possible is to set a folder via prefs.js. "Always ask you where to save files" doesn't work.
-
I guess that's it. But I'm not sure - it is ten years ago.

Now I had tried Invidious on my weakest computer (Pentium 4c (SSE2),VIA PT880Ultra, 2GB, NV GF5900XT). It works, with K-Meleon76, RT's Firefox 45.9.33 (with added lav filters), MyPal and Centaury, but not with Firefox 52 or 35 (no compatible source was found for this media). Invidious doesn't seem to support VP9. Retrospect: I must disable hardware acceleration to run youtube videos when using GF5900XT. I had tried Workarounds for Firefox 52 from msfn/board/XP to support AVC1 some weeks ago. These attempts failed with crashes on browser start here on ME. Furthermore I noticed Invidious is optimised for 16:9. I have an overlap due to the player with 4:3 fullscreen.

Thanks, I'm aware of Invidious, but the test on my older machine is still pending. On this here it works really fast. I don't see sound problems on my RM's. Creative SB PCI128 (Ensoniq ES1371/1373) Sound Cards

I wasn't so diligent. I don't know how to increase the stack commit size. I installed the PE Explorer (trial 30 days). It gives a Data Value for the stack commit 00001000h (chrome.exe version 6.0.453.1). I also don't know what higher value makes sense. So it will be trial and error. I fiddled a bit with different KernelEx modes and different versions 3,4,5,6,7. I got them from https://web.archive.org/web/20190412050719/http://www.oldapps.com/Google_Chrome.php. 2K SP4 seems to make it a bit more functional, but I wasn't able to open a website. On Xp I had set two http sides for the start on ME without success. Versions 3 and had 4 has let the LDT resources go into the red area. KexApiLog - first try: After the error message, the logging continued to run somewhat crumbled. I have to take a closer look.
-
no special steps - I only copied chrome.exe into the 6.0.453.1 folder and started the exe from that folder. But that's not yet running. not even the otions/tool button works. If I try to insert something into the url bar, it crashes immediately. This is only the ui.

Yes, I also can start your chrome 5 and even my version 6,too. Here I get another error message "chrome has caused an error in Crypt32.dll" after 10 seconds . But the Dependency Walker doesn't show red boxes (no modul warning / no unresolved functions) for Crypt32.dll (original ME file 5.131.2133.3). These old versions are interesting for troubleshooting, but not for browsing, because those don't support TLS 1.2.

Thanks. And do you have stability or other browser problems on 98SE in your VM? Are Firefox 52 or MyPal e.g. sluggish?
-
Thanks for the confirmation. What system specs do you have? Hardware, graphics driver, VM(what kind, which) or RM, directX,... . The more testers participate here with different systems , so that better insights and knowledge we obtained. What steps did you take (e.g. BCW ChromeTool?)? Which exact version is that? Where can I catch it?
-
Hallo oerg866, it depends on hardware, software (directx, grahics driver), RM, VM, ... what works and what doesn't. Firefox 52.9, MyPal 29.3, Centaury 0.17, NewMoon 28.9, RT's 45.9.33 run here in my opinion quite usable or even good on my ME machines. There are several issues on 98/ME of which most are solvable here. Not solved for example, the ten years old issues "bookmarks and recently visited addresses aren't saved". https://sourceforge.net/p/kernelex/feature-requests/7/ K-Meleon 76.x.x: The submenus are largely unreadable. The usefulness of this browser is therefore questionable. Meanwhile, the use of YouTube on my oldest computer Pentium 4c (SSE2),VIA PT880Ultra, 2GB, NV GF5900XT is no longer possible. The CPU is probably too weak for such a bloated Site. In general, these browsers are quite sluggish on this machine. I keep the fist post up to date. Everything important is summarised with links to the associated posts. I don't see a possibility for a simple two-line summary. This is too complex. I recommend to proceed step by step, run the improved Firefox 31.8 for 98/ME, then try to get 45.9 running and finally 52.9 to keep error possibilities lower.

Correction: Apparently I had only tested NewMoon version 28.1 with skia. 28.8 and 28.9 work with "gfx.content.azure.backends" skia.
-
I've older versions of NewMoon (28.0 -28.9.0) running. The problem in XUL.dll can be circumvented by a substitution with an adequate file version of MyPal. Here: NewMoon 28.9.0a1.win32-git-20191214 (Xul.dll 4.4.2.7285) with Xul.dll 4.4.2.7377 of MyPal 28.8.4. Too bad that NewMoon doesn't accept skia for gfx.content.azure.backends. Some icon glitches remain due to cairo. Newer versions seem to lose compatibility. I also have basilisk52-g4.4.win32-git-20191214 running, but the used Xul.dll of Centaury doesn't have such a good compatibility. Some functions are not available.
