    Update notification: Hello to all, as already reported by @roytam1, @feodor2 released a new beta version of Mypal. The version number is now 68.12.5b. Download link: https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/releases/download/68.12.5b/mypal-68.12.5.en-US.win32.zip Here is a quotation of important changes: Therefore, GitHub and mega.nz should work again. I will test that as soon as possible. And, very important for this topic here is to recheck all extensions and custom buttons! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Hello @mina7601! At the moment I am extending the documentation with a short explanation for each menu item. And I have improved the visibility of the windows in some programs. I am also trying to improve my programs with regard to false positives from virus scanners. My Avast doesn't like some of them although they are absolutely clean. Therefore, still a bit to do! But the release will come very soon. Due to the false positives of some virus scanners, I am now trying to switch to another compiler. All programs that I have created myself will then have to be recompiled and, after that, rechecked on VirusTotal.com. I will make these results available when I release my program package ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3. I hope it can be released on Sunday. Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Hello @InterLinked! Thanks for creating the extension chromefill! I am very interested in! I will test it as soon as possible and report here! Kind regards, AstroSkipper

    Ok, let us agree on the following! Process Hacker assists an user in detecting malware and suspicious processes. It is an excellent task manager and shows the user strangely behaving processes, but it is definitely not an AV program.

    Hello @XPerceniol! Many thanks for your detailed answer! As you can see in the quoted post, I have always seen you as a member of our team. But I respect personal decisions, whether I like them or not. The beta test is over now, but, after releasing my program package, we can try to check why your computer refused to participate in the beta test, either officially in this thread or privately via PM. That's what I can offer to you. It's up to you! However, in your long reply you did not say, whether you tried to perform any of the methods, which I posted in another thread to fix your hard drive, or not. I'd have been interested! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Spoken for me only, each browser I use has its own profile. I totally agree with @VistaLover, I never use one profile shared by different browsers.
  8. AstroSkipper
    The answer is one post above coming from @VistaLover!

    As far as I can see from your output, this is just a compatibility problem of the extension Greasemonkey due to an undefined entity in its options.xul. This file has to be edited to make it fully compatible again. The problematic entity is in line 13 and column 1.

    @XPerceniol I would be interested in that, too! Your issues were very strange as far as I could see. Hello @XPerceniol! I was very busy last week and only now realize that you never replied to our request. What's going on with your computer? Did you manage it to work again? Could you restore your partition completely? And BTW, I gave you some recommendations and tips for trying to get rid of hard drive failures here in this post: Have you considered to perform any of these methods? Anyway, hope you are well, and, take care of you! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Hello @George King and @Taiga-chan! Thanks for your recommendation and replies! I am always willing to learn new things and expand my programming skills, indeed. And, as I already said, I'll put the multiple language support on the test in due course. But, it is not a high priority for me. Other things in the development of my program package are much more important. The world is international. There are a lot of programs English only. I am mathematician, and consistency is very important for me. If I wanted to add a multiple language support to my program package, all English strings would have to be translated, i.e., the strings inside PopMenu, the menu items of PopMenu, all documentation, and all outputs of my programs. Therefore, the effort would be much greater than it seems at first sight. At the moment, my program package is still under development and will change from version to version. Logically, this continuous development has the highest priority for me. Cheers, AstroSkipper

    I know that very well! I am German, and English is not my native language. But these few strings of Engish in ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 shouldn't be any problem for non-natives. And there are translation services like Google Translate or DeepL. My documentation can be translated in any language in seconds. Same for all menu items in PopMenu, and they can be replaced easily. No language skills are necessary! In any case, supporting multiple languages was never a feature I brought into the game and is not a high priority for me. But, as I already mentioned, I will put it to the test later. A "too late", I don't see, though. Users of Windows XP, whose support has been discontinued for years, are likely to focus on the functionality and benefit of a software rather than its language. And one thing is clear, the added value of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 is enormous!
  13. AstroSkipper
    For information only! At the moment, my focus is on the publication of my program package and further development with regard to optimal use and user-friendliness. Everything else I will put to the test later.
  14. AstroSkipper
    Hello @George King! Thanks for your request and tips! At the moment, support for multiple languages is not envisaged. I will look into this in due course, but English is an international language and, in my opinion, quite sufficient. But anyway, thanks for that! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    I have decided to expand the documentation of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 with a short explanation of the sixteen menu items based on the experiences from the beta test. Apparently, not all menu items are self-explanatory after all! Thanks for that especially to @mina7601!
  16. AstroSkipper
    @mina7601 Thanks for your offer! You are a great beta tester! Glad to hear I can count on you in future times! And, of course, I will!

    Try to use @cmalex's PROXYMII or in the next days, my up-coming release of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 for more convenient use! It provides all TLS protocols from 1.0 to brand new 1.3 with all important ciphers. It supports old SSL 3.0, too. It can be used with any browser. Furthemore, try a new clean profile, and disable temporarily all web filtering features of your security software!
  18. AstroSkipper
    You can try additionally other DNS servers. And, deactivate all extensions temporarily to check if one of them interferes! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Do you use a VPN? Did you try different IPs from your provider by reconnecting? Sometimes, a site or service doesn't like a certain IP.

    Beta testing of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 Hello again, my dear beta testers, @Dave-H, @mina7601, @NotHereToPlayGames, @George King, @XPerceniol! This was a beta test at its best! One week of testing, fixing code, and checking different scenarios! With very many helpful and exploitable results! You all did a very good job. But one after the other! First of all, thanks to @XPerceniol for the attempt to test my program package! Unfortunately, his computer did not want to participate in the testing. It's a pity that this could not be followed up! Next, I would also like to thank @George King for the willingness to test my package in Windows XP Professional x64, which unfortunately could not be done due to personal reasons! Furthermore, a big thank you to @NotHereToPlayGames for testing, reporting and confirming that my package runs on Windows XP Professional x64, despite private commitments! And on it goes! A big thank you to @Dave-H for the continuous testing and reporting, for your advices and support, especially for the correction of my documentation in terms of spelling, punctuation and grammar! I did my best, but unfortunately, I no longer have reading glasses, I need new ones , and I am not a native English speaker. And finally, a very special, huge thank you to @mina7601 for the in-depth testing, tracking down and confirming bugs, for the continuous reporting and your support! This is how a beta test provides solid and usable data. Simply great! Anyway, I have to thank you all for your efforts and time commitment! This is not something that can be taken for granted! This beta test was absolutely important and also necessary. Five times I had to send additionally corrected versions of different programs to you via PM. An early release of my program package would have been a disaster for sure! But now, all the problems we found have been fixed, and hopefully there are none left, although programs always contain bugs of some kind. Speaking of bugs, from now on we have a new terminus technicus, the one I christened "space bug". And, I love it sooo much! Anyway, you guys are a great team , and with this post I officially end this beta test. I hope I can count on you next time. Everything else soon! Greetings from Germany! Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Thank you very much for your offer! You can use the proxy and all its features as usual. Maybe, try some you usually don't use or need! In any case, the daily use is a second test, too. This beta test will be ending very soon by a special post of me. But it won't be the last one. The development of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu will go on. I hope I can count on you next time, too.

    Yep! The strings of PopMenu's settings window can't be changed unless you'd decompile PopMenu.exe, replace the strings, and recompile it again. The problem is the decompiling, a kind of reverse engineering. In most cases you won't get the complete code. I forgot to mention that in some cases you can replace code or images by Resource Hacker. I used it to replace the icon in @cmalex's ProxHTTPSProxy,exe to get back the old, well-known icon of whenever's or @heinoganda's releases. Resource Hacker can recompile such a modified executable. But this won't work with all files. You have to have luck, too.

    No need to use it, but it is much easier and more comfortable! In all frequently used browsers, I manage my cookies by using a cookie manager. In NM 28 it is the Enhanced Cookie Manager. Two clicks, and a window shows all cookies related to a specific site.

    Use an extension, a cookie manager! I use Awesome Cookie Manager! You could delete all cookies, too, but in such a case, you'd lose all login sessions.
