Of course. Not being a real administrator is much better. But you were already used to that from Windows 8. So nothing new under the sun. BTW, my Windows XP runs perfectly.

No good statement!

Cloudflare's alleged Browser Developer Program Apparently there is a Cloudflare Browser Developer Program mentioned by Moonchild: CloudFlare: summary and status. And here is the official announcement: Announcing the Cloudflare Browser Developer Program. But clicking on their form Cloudflare Browser Development Program Application leads to that: Cloudflare and its developers are nothing more than propagandists and charlatans. This service holds a monopoly, which it exploits ruthlessly, and should be regulated by law under threat of very heavy financial penalties. Cheers, AstroSkipper

My Browser Builds (Part 6)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
I implemented in my ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 package the tool Min2Tray which I therefore have been using for years. So I can minimise any other programme to the systray as well. That was the best I could find. -
My Browser Builds (Part 6)

Thanks! And yes, I know that. It has been reported here. However, my statement had a completely different intention. I try to stay some releases behind. As the release from 2026-06-27 is running fine here and quite close to PM 34.3.1 from 2026-06-24, there is no need for me to update at the moment. I don’t need regressions at the time and am trying to avoid them. Once the regressions reach MCP's Pale Moon, a solution will surely be found. Unless, of course, @roytam1 has a solution for this first. Unfortunately, however, he isn’t particularly talkative. -

TBH, there is actually no need to directly update New Moon 28 when a new update is available. The release from 2026-06-27 is running fine here. Maybe, we should stop playing guinea pigs for the Windows XP haters on the Pale Moon forum. Their current release is 34.3.1 from 2026-06-24, and therefore GitHub will probably still run well in their current Pale Moon release https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=33602. They may feel free to be this time the first to struggle with the faulty updates. I've been a bit behind on updating for a while now. Strictly according to the motto: Never change a running system! At least for a few weeks. -
On a modern system, Norton Ghost is rather problematic. The following rule applies to imaging (backup) software: The more modern the computer, the more recent the imager.

Macrium is of course an interesting tool as it has an additonal feature called Macrium ReDeploy to restore a Windows system image to completely different hardware.

All of Codeberg.org at the moment for me. As I’ve already mentioned, I’ve had no problems accessing Codeberg from Germany. It works fine here. I've just tested it again.
-
I can't confirm that. Works here fine. Just tested.

It is a built-in safety feature derived from older Firefox architecture designed to protect your system from unverified files and drive-by downloads.

This is the direct downlad link for using context menu entry "Save as" or installing diectly via clicking onto it: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4098688/user_agent_string_switcher-0.5.0.xpi This is the version history: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/user-agent-string-switcher/versions/

This is not for general use. It is meant for a manually created SSUAO in about:config for cloudflare.com only.
-
This is due to your security settings. Don't install it directly but download it locally first! That kind of thing doesn't happen with me.

When using unknown extensions, test them deeply and check on a user agent website if they are really working as advertised! BTW, this extension actually requires FF91+. Just because you can install an extension doesn’t necessarily mean it will actually work.
