@Mathwiz! I can't find a sync function in Mypal 68 either, it doesn't seem to have been added yet. You know that @feodor2 is working on important improvements and existing problems, many functions are still missing, e.g. update function for extensions, internationalization and localization and so on. Whether the support for Firefox Sync will be added again, I don't know exactly. But, you can open an issue on GitHub. @feodor2 looks there more regularly than here.

My Browser Builds (Part 3)
AstroSkipper replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Hello @roytam1! Thank you so much for the constantly updating of your releases! The most recent version of NM 28 (2022-09-02) is great. BTW, NM 28 is still my main browser. -
I totally agree! Speaking only for myself, I do not use any Sync Services, neither Firefox nor Pale Moon Sync. I generally try to store as little data as possible on cloud services. But, one thing is clear. No matter what would be changed in this functionality, someone will always come up short and be dissatisfied.

@mina7601! In the first linked post, everything is explained sufficiently. And by the way, I never try to say anything, I say it crystal clear or as clear as necessary. -

ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use

No, I am not angry at all. But, as you know, I mean what I write, i.e., I would like to read comments with your personal experiences and ideas. I don't like rephrasing, repeating and comments without own content. To show you what I mean I rewrote your statement. Here is your comment in a more personal way of wording providing own opinions and experiences: It's just an example.- 922 replies

“Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.”
AstroSkipper replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
Unfortunately, we are non-native English speakers. Therefore, it can only be answered by e.g. @Dave-H. I think basically both is ok. For example: -
Compared to the browsers of @roytam1 or Mypal 68, the 360Chrome browsers are unfortunately very slow and sluggish. In my system, I can only open three pages in the version v11 at the most, and then nothing works anymore. Only endless loading and waiting is the order of the day. And not to mention v13 and v13.5! Sorry, no fun at all! Using only one page in v11 is still bearable and works if it is not programmed too "modern" and too Googlized. I use 360Chrome v11 only for comparison if there are problem with Googlized websites.

“Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.”
AstroSkipper replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
It was just an example to clarify my "either" problem. I used it incorrectly in some cases and forgot about the condition of a preciding negation. -
And, I really need some computer glasses. In the next weeks, I will build a more recent desktop machine, but presumably, without Windows XP. Much more recent hardware means more recent OS. And, you know, I am a Windows XP fan or enthusiast. Do you understand my next problem? And, on this more recent machine with an actually not wanted, but needed, more recent OS, there will be only browsers I can trust, i.e., no Chinese or Russian one. PS: There is one advantage of my old machine to more recent ones. It is easy to identify software that consumes an incredible amount of system resources. For me, this kind of stuff is just bad programming!
-
Hello @D.Draker! It's not really a torture to use my old computer. Yes, this machine is slow and low on system resources, but very stable and reliable. A computer that has grown older with me and has never let me down despite unbelievable disasters. It would be difficult for me to send it to retirement. Every screw, modification or repair was done by me personally. I know this machine inside out. Now do you understand what the problem is? And, of course, your machine you descibed above is time-period correct for running Windows XP!

AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Thank you @mina7601! But basically, it is not necessary to rephrase my statements, and frankly, I don't like that at all. My statements are meant as they were formulated by me. If you want to comment on them, I would like to read your own opinion and not what I have already said or maybe, didn't want to say, either. Provide your own experiences and thoughts! That would be much more interesting and valuable! IMHO, self-created content that contains personal and unique statements without constantly repeating those of others should be the goal of a poster, actually. The human mind, no matter what age, is capable of creating and formulating its own. Finding the right and individual path in life and also here in this forum always means forming your own opinion, standing by it and expressing it to others. I hope this helps you a bit!

“Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.”
AstroSkipper replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
Unfortunately, I really had a little "either" problem. Your example is absolutely correct. But I forgot an important rule. The word "either" is only used in your example sentence if it is preceded by a negative. In non-negative sentences, the adverbs "too" or "also" are used. The position of this adverb was not the subject of our little grammatical excursus. Here is an example for my grammatical error: -
“Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.”
AstroSkipper replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
But, that's not enough. Errors have to be eliminated. As you know, I don't like errors. -
“Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.”
AstroSkipper replied to XPerceniol's topic in Funny Farm
I'm glad to hear that! BTW, I found a grammatical error in my statement, already corrected! You shouldn't do a thousand things at the same time. -

Very good! It's all fine with my program package. We had here a beta test, and all my self-created executables are definitely clean. Any alarm notfication from security programs is a false positive.- 922 replies

AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello @beansmuggler! That's Min2Tray, an open source program to minimize program windows to the systray. The installed hook is needed for keyboard shortcuts. Add it to your exclusion list or whitelist! Read my documentation! Min2Tray is very well known and totally harmless. Google it! And, it is definitely not this: Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: If you like my project or my program package, please, support it by liking or up-voting!- 922 replies

AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello @cnfcomps! Thanks for your nice reply! BTW, it was not only a collecting of information about restoring MU system in Windows XP but own work and solutions, too, which were very time-consuming. An Autostart option will be a feature in one of the next releases if I can see a real interest in my already published program package. An author lives from the feedback of the users, and the feedback on my project ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 is rather modest. Only few comments and reactions on my program package itself! You're welcome! Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: If you like my project or my program package, please, support it by liking or up-voting!- 922 replies

Description of of a time-period correct computer running Windows XP owned by an infamous Frisian (I also have others but not running Windows XP). My Windows XP computer is equipped with a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz Northwood single core CPU and only 1.5 GB SD-RAM. and can't be upgraded anymore due to the motherbord's layout. No SSD, no SATA but IDE hard disks, and the graphic card is NVIDIA 6200 AGP 4x. A more recent desktop computer will be built by me in the next weeks. At the moment, no time to do that! Anyway, presumably, no hardware for running MiniBrowser without getting more grey hair than I already have! Cheers, AstroSkipper

Apology accepted! And now let's forget about all that! Frisians are generally not resentful as you know!
