ProxHTTPSProxy and HTTPSProxy in Windows XP for future use
AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
I described this feature in my article, the first post in this thread. It enables the proxy system-wide in Windows XP. For example, the Windows Update service has to look for updates on its servers. When this feature is enabled, then the connections will go through this proxy. But, if the proxy is running only locally, then they won't.- 922 replies

No problem! At first, thank you very much for deeper testing! That's what I need! Did you never use this feature in the past? Anyway, that kind of testing you are doing now is what ensures to find misbehaviour or bugs of programs. Not believing or assuming but checking! Cheers, AstroSkipper- 922 replies

Well, your fixed "Configure PopMenu.exe" gives the error "Error: Too many command-line parameters" during configuration. Your original "Configure PopMenu.exe" (inside ProxHTTPSProxy PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 archive itself) does not give the error. Very good! Now, you know what I mean. Testing everything is the only way to find such bugs. Frankly, I wanted to fix the space bug and overdid it a little bit. Anyway, you're really great! Thanks a lot for your find and confirmation! I already cleaned the code, and a fixed version will be uploaded, too!- 922 replies

Yep! Finally! I would have been surprised if that had worked! The program was written by me for @heinoganda's proxy. So, not all features were tested, right? q.e.d.- 922 replies

Unfortunately, I heard a lot about TrayIt!, the unaccustomed systray icon's behaviour of ProxHTTPSProxy, and a non-existent autostart feature, but less about the already provided features of my package. Did you really test all existent features? And, did you uninstall all previous versions of ProxHTTPSProxy before testing as recommended? Furthermore, did you delete all previous global and local path settings in regards to ProxHTTPSProxy? And I mean all of my beta testers, @Dave-H, @mina7601, @NotHereToPlayGames, of course!

@Dave-H! In a beta test, the complete program package should first be tested as it is. After that, one can talk about new features or improvements. Do you agree?- 922 replies

AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
Hello, my dear beta testers, @Dave-H, @mina7601, @NotHereToPlayGames! Any new results or observations while testing my program package? Did you really test all features? Do they work as it should? Did you check the proper working of the proxy after applying the provided functions in my pre-configured popmenu? Detailed results, I only got from @Dave-H and @mina7601. I'm asking all this because the beta test is slowly coming to an end. Cheers, AstroSkipper- 922 replies

Adding automatically an entry to run the proxy on boot is not a feature of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 as I already told you. It will be one in the next release, though. Mainly because a special person can't live without this feature. And I assume most users don't want the proxy to run on boot. Presumably, they want to start it rather on demand like me.- 922 replies

Yep! You said your systray is full of icons. Maybe, it can help to reduce the number of icons, without any loss and without using Windows' native feature.- 922 replies

Ok, the feature to reorder is referring to the taskbar and not systray. Anyway, I never tried it but it sounds promising.- 922 replies

Ok. While looking for alternative ways to control the systray I found the tool Taskbar Hide - hide windows program 3.2 from Eusing. It's a freeware tool. Here is a screenshot: And here is the link: https://www.eusing.com/hidewindows/bosskey.htm This are the two features I meant: Hide/Show icons from the system tray / You can hide some of the less used icons from the system tray. The operation is the same as to Hide/Show application windows. Now this function supports windows me/2000/xp/vista/7/8/10/11. Modify application windows order on taskbar You can arrange the windows on taskbar according to your preference. Select the application in the Taskbar Hide list and use Up and Down arrows to reorder the application windows. This feature becomes useful when you want to put related application windows together.- 922 replies

You can already toggle on and off but in different way as you used to do. But that's not what I meant. I found a tool to hide systray icons and reorder them. It is a freeware. Interested?- 922 replies

AstroSkipper replied to AstroSkipper's topic in Windows XP
To notice the bug some conditions have to be fulfilled: You must have spaces in your program's path. No autostart entries referring to the program PopMenu must exist in your registry in the key Run! Or anywhere else! Now, execute the old version of my configuration utility "Configure PopMenu"! All should be fine except the autostart of the program PopMenu. No entry should have been added to the key Run, and therefore, Popmenu won't start at next boot, most probably. I didn't test it, I looked only at the code of my configuration utility. Anyway, the new version should work properly. BTW, if you all had folliwed precisely my instructions, the bug would have been noticed presumably. Of course, only if spaces were in your program's path! Greetings, AstroSkipper- 922 replies

Have you already tested the proxy in Windows 2000? It doesn't work, probably due to problems with signing certificates, isn't it?- 922 replies
