You can use a translation service like DeepL. The OP does not want to transfer files from Android to PC via internet services but offline. No, it's the correct forum. The OP wants to transfer files to a PC with Windows XP installed.

I'm sorry,, but I can't open that image. 403 forbidden.

Hello @D.Draker my friend and soulmate! I am glad to hear from you again after a long time. I hope you are well and unharmed. I'm still coughing around a bit after a Covid infection four weeks ago.

First, no reason to be rude! And now: Unofficial update servers! No trust! Compatibility? Unknown. I would only trust ESET to make virus definitions. A third person might inject bad code. And, making definition updates compatible is a complex process needing the knowledge of ESET and testing without any end. Therefore, no real chance to do that! My comment about uninstalling NOD32 is very helpful because ESET NOD32 9 (and beow) has reached End-Of-Life (EOL), and there are definitely problems to get rid of this crap. And, that means for me doing that: Therefore, both your comment and your considerations unfortunately lead to nothing. Anyway, you can consider whatever you want, of course. Have a nice day!

Hello @FantasyAcquiesce! If you want to transfer files from a PC to an Android device or vice versa, I can recommend the way via FTP using your WLAN. You have to configure an FTP server on your Android device by using an app like Solid Explorer or Total Commander + its TotalCmd-WLAN-Transfer plugin and an FTP client on your PC as for example WinSCP whose latest version (I tested the portable paf version) is actually still compatible with Windows XP. WinSCP is open source and simply great. Furthermore, both devices have to be in the same WIFI network, of course. This kind of file transfer is absolutely great and fast. I never had connection problems anymore. No more instable connections and fiddling with cables! And, the configuration of such a connection is very simple to perform. Kind regards, AstroSkipper

I reported in the old thread "My Browser Builds (Part 3)" an issue with leo.org when looking up a word in the dictionary. The expanding of further translations doesn't work anymore. Here is my post: This issue can be observed in the latest releases of New Moon 28 and Serpent 52 of 2022-10-27, too. Therefore, I reported this problem in the already existing issue thread (leo.org #44) of martok's palefill on GitHub. Here is the link: https://github.com/martok/palefill/issues/44#issuecomment-1295866806. Maybe, it can be polyfilled somehow. An corresponding thread in the Pale Moon forum already exists (I didn't know that). Here, you can find it: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=28785 Cheers, AstroSkipper

@jbclem! Here is the link to an official step-by-step guide of TestDisk: https://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step Cheers, AstroSkipper

Interesting news! A new release of Mypal 68 will come soon. It seems to be the version Mypal 68.13.0. This is a quotation from @feodor2 on GitHub's issues: Here is the link again: https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/issues/3#issuecomment-1279302448. Thanks to @mixit for the hint! So, we have to be patient and stay tuned! I am very much looking forward to this new release. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Thanks for the tip, @mixit! I thought any activity on GitHub is shown under activities. Very strange and a bit illogical! A comment in the issues is actually an activity, too. That a new release will come soon, I already noticed in the issues, though. Anyway, thanks again for the clarification!

Hello @XPerceniol! Haven't heard from you for a while! Hope you are well! With regard to your question, I didn't hear anything from @feodor2 since 2022-08-19. And on GitHub, his last activity was from August, too. Since then, no further activity! Unfortunately, I don't know anything more. And truth be told, I've also been worrying about his well-being and his safety.

First of all, a general tip. If you want to ask someone a specific question in this forum, you have to quote or mention that member. Otherwise, the person will not be notified and will not realise that you have asked a question addressed to them. That's how you mention someone, for example me: @AstroSkipper. The fact that I saw you ask me a question is purely coincidental. Furthermore, your images are relatively useless, except for the fact that they don't bode well. Without any information about your affected hard disk, its original partition structure you want to recover, and the names of these partitions with their OSes installed on it, I can't say anything reasonable. This information is very important. TestDisk might find old, deleted partitions which you don't want to recover, of course. Therefore, you have to decide what is to be restored or not. One thing is crystal clear from your pictures: you do not want to restore partitions marked with a D (Deleted).These partitions can't be restored, they are overlapping. In such cases, you have to take a deeper look into them. Actually, you want to find partitions marked with * (bootable), P (Primary), L (Logical) or E (Extended) like in your second picture. That means you should look for an intact partition structure which is really recoverable and corresponds to its last known. BTW, TestDisk is a hell of a tool, but it can also do a lot of damage, especially in the wrong hands. Do not write any partition structure on your hard disk if you aren't sure that it is the correct one! The idea of this tool is to find the original, lost partition structure, to check if it is recoverable, and to write it back to the hard disk. I recommended version 6.13 and gave you a download link for it. Have you tried this version first? The versions 7.x didn't work for me. They couldn't recover the lost partition structure on my old hard disk, presumably due to the age and the hardware of my computer. Try TestDisk 6.13, too, and provide more detailed information! The advantage of TestDisk is its easy usage if the partitions are recoverable. Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: Spoken for me only, TestDisk was able to recover the lost partition structure of my hard disk in nearly all cases, and that on two different computers. I never had to fix the partition structure manually. In addition, however, I have also created backups of my MBRs in case TestDisk fails.

This is a question addressed to our experts, of course. Is it possible to disable CSP (Content-Security-Policy) only for a certain page in New Moon 28 and Serpent 52? AFAIK, it is possible in Chrome. There are some extensions to do that. But in NM or SP? Kind regards, AstroSkipper

Hello @Cixert! You only have to download @heinoganda's Certificate Updater 1.6 and to execute it. Or, you can use one of my self-created offline installers. Both can be found in this post in the section Downloads (11.2.4. Downloads related to Root Certificate Updates): Cheers, AstroSkipper

I already know how to disable CSP (Content-Security-Policy) globally in New Moon 28 and Serpent 52. You have to set the variable security.csp.enable to false. And yes, I know it's a security risk. Therefore, I wrote a custom button to do that temporarily and to have full control over its status which is shown by the button itself in form of a image that changes its colour accordingly. But, does anyone know if it is possible to disable CSP only for a certain page in NM and SP? Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

Sure, send an email to Eset, and everything will be fine! Seriously? Who is somebody? Unfortinately, I fear your somebody will never appear! Just as always when an AV program is abandoned!

Wish you a good course and a successful recovery, @roytam1! I've more or less just had it! Unfortunately, the cough doesn't really want to go away.

Update notification! The Root Certificates have been updated and are now from 25-10-2022. Here is a screenshot: Therefore, my self-created, offline Root Certificate Updaters in the section 11.2.4. Downloads related to Root Certificate Updates (in the first post of this thread) will also be updated as soon as possible. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Unfortunately, I have to report that the website https://www.leo.org/ doesn't work properly anymore in New Moon 28 and Serpent 52. Basically, the website works, but expanding further results of translations isn't possible anymore. This issue must have started some days before. Here is a screenshot of https://dict.leo.org/german-english/token to get translations for the noun "token" in New Moon 28: In the web console, you can see different errors. Trying to expand "more nouns" fails, and the console shows "TypeError: T is undefined 746e848e75c60e3993b2.js:2:22569". Same in Serpent 52. It seems to be a JavaScript problem. Here is a screenshot of Serpent's web console: Both browsers, New Moon 28 and Serpent 52, are most recent of 2022-10-15. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Glad it works for you!

Hello @Zorba the Geek! This topic has already been treated extensively in two other threads. We all know now that ESET has also abandoned the update of the virus definitions for ESET 8 and 9. This means that there won't be recent virus definitions for these versions anymore. So, I don't quite understand what you actually want to discuss here. ESET 8 and 9 will remain on its last date of definitions update (September of 2022) forever. It is very unlikely that virus definitions targeting Eset 10 and above will be compatible with Eset 9 and below. And that, simply put, is the end. What can be done now? Either leave everything as it is or, what I did, uninstall Eset completely! Here is what I already posted, and sorry for the bad news! Cheers, AstroSkipper

To be clear (and fair to Google), it's not so much their Chromium engine (I use Chromium-based browsers - albeit "unGoogled" - when necessary) as it is Google's "predatory innovation" cycle ... Ok, just to clarify what I meant with the verb "stifle". Most of the developers of browsers and websites follow Google's lead. Be it the Chromium engine they use as a basis for new browsers or the frameworks the developers need to create or recode websites. In the end, it doesn't matter. The result is a "Chromium world" or "Google world", and alternative browser engines are tragically left behind. And, I say that as an Android fan and user whose tablet represents the realisation of a pure Google and Chromium world. Anyway, I am very happy to be able to use UXP browsers on my very old Windows XP machine thanks to @roytam1. Chromium browsers severely restrict the modifiability of extensions. I love extensions, and I deeply hate any kind of these restrictions. And, one thing is very clear. I am a Windows XP fan, I am just a user, I do not have to be fair with regard to Google. I have never wanted these cluttered and cumbersome websites, in fact I loathe them. I am not employed by Google, and I am not paid by this company. So, why should I think this aberration is good or judge it fairly? Sorry, no way! BTW, a similar misdevelopment can also be seen in Android itself. More and more restrictions from one Android version to the next, everything becomes more cumbersome, and the hardware has to be permanently upgraded to handle this crap. Simply suck! Microsoft has shown how it's done!

A manual repair by editing the MBR is for most users not really a choice. A deeper knowledge would be necessary in such a case, otherwise a user might destroy the structure forever. BTW, most probably means there may still be a chance, but it'll be very unlikely for the "normal user" to recover the lost partitions. If TestDisk can't repair the errors, all is most probably lost for a normal user. Spoken for me, I always could successfully repair my damaged partition structure using TestDisk. And, I had a lot of these booting problems with lost partitions in the past. Kind regards, AstroSkipper

Update notification! I added new sources to the first post of this thread in terms of legacy extensions. Kind regards, AstroSkipper

The root certificates should be updated on a regular basis in any case, no matter what else one does. I would never store any passwords in the browser editions of 360Chrome due to many well-known reasons. Kind regards, AstroSkipper
