    My German language pack for New Moon 28 - Fixed - Part 3 My last German language pack 28.10.0rc4 from this post had to be fixed again. I found another issue under Einstellungen -> Datenschutz some weeks ago. Here is a screenshot to demonstrate this issue: I have fixed this issue and assigned the number 28.10.0rc5 to the new, corrected version. Here are two screenshots taken from the fixed version in the most recent version of New Moon 28 (2024-01-31): And here is the download link of the updated, German language package in version 28.10.0rc5 for the more recent versions of New Moon 28 (issue observed starting with the version palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20240120-d849524bd-uxp-a62d808d09-xpmod): https://www.mediafire.com/file/xty66noengy0ktg/de-28.10.0_RC5.xpi/file Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

    Did you also check if ProxHTTPSProxy is working on other websites, for example, accessing the website https://www.howsmyssl.com/ in the Internet Explorer, as it should? Please, post one screenshot of this website including the programme window of ProxHTTPSProxy!

    If my tip An experimental solution for the error code 0x80072F78 while accessing the WU/MU website doesn't work for you, here some further ideas: Check the Windows Update log. Check the date and time of your computer and Windows XP. Check if Windows XP is activated. Try a more recent ProxHTTPSProxy version. Check if the proxy is installed correctly and is working properly. Update all certificates.

    The reason why I investigated the restart behaviour of these browsers is that I have created various restart custom buttons (JavaScript) for Firefox-based browsers in the past and currently have made one that performed a normal restart when left-clicked and additionally deletes the startup cache when middle-clicked. I also extracted the restart code, which is used by New Moon 28, from its source code and had a look at it. But somehow I get the feeling that manually deleting the startup cache is not really necessary any longer, as the browser seems to do this on its own in most cases when restarting it.

    @roytam1 I have investigated the restart behaviour of New Moon 28 (and Serpent 52, too). I have started the browser many times and observed the startup cache. I noticed that very often or in most cases the startup cache was cleared automatically without any additional commands. Do you have more information about this? Is this normal? I thought that this cache is only deleted in special cases or triggered by the user, manually or by the command line option -purgecaches, for example.

    I've hardly been able to post anything in this thread for hours. Is it just me, or are there fellow sufferers? I always get the message:

    Thanks for the links! I totally forgot about looking there for possible command line options.

    I just had to read this in the Pale Moon forum by athenian200: Source: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=30787&sid=feea3eb912a653ba49c1fb3c2bc447f3&start=60#p248158 Like perhaps some in this forum may already know, I am a mathematician. Unfortunately, from a purely mathematical and statistical point of view, I have to rate this study as unsatisfactory. School mark: F (in Germany 6). If this is the way this so-called developer works, then good night Marie (German saying, translated )! Before any investigation, you should first of all be clear about what you actually want to investigate. That has gone completely wrong here. Anyone who compares apples with pears and thinks meaningful results would be generated is completely wrong. My advice to this self-appointed expert: First read and understand. Then gather facts and think about it carefully. Then you'll be able to bake such childish stuff. The only thing that went well in this investigation was that the "good" man used WinMerge for comparison. But that was it. What is obvious, however, is that this guy really doesn't know much about extensions. My advice to athenian200: Read my article thoroughly before spreading such nonsense! And if you have no idea or are overwhelmed with such an examination, then you should leave it to those who really know how to do it. And what can you actually do with such an "investigation"? Unfortunately, as already mentioned, only this:

    Well done! Your Dutch colleagues will be delighted with such a service. BTW, I already mentioned this issue here two weeks ago: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1258614 I have fixed my German language pack the day I posted this issue. This corrected language pack has been in testing mode since then. I will post it when testing mode is over, and all is definitely working. So far, no further issues.

    :OT The last time, I heard this saying was in the film "Next" with Nicolas Cage but in German: "Keine gute Tat bleibt ungestraft". :END OF OT
  11. AstroSkipper
    That's absolutely true.
  12. AstroSkipper
    But the biggest joke I've read there is that you can't download my release because there are adverts on Mediafire preventing the download. Where does he live?
  13. AstroSkipper
    I totally agree. But I am no longer annoyed by some of the characters in that forum. And I'm even surprised that there are also people who argue fairly and decently, and appreciate work which is completely free of charge for them.
  14. AstroSkipper
    Well done! I have not been able to find any useful information about these strange strings either.
  15. AstroSkipper
    Thanks! Good to know.

    Very weird syntax! Never seen before.
  18. AstroSkipper
    Unfortunately, I didn't. But thanks! Any further information on that?

    My mod uBlock Origin Legacy and its browser or operation system compatibiliy To pre-empt the wild speculations about my surgical interventions in the code of the Legacy extension uBlock Origin, which can be read in another forum, and to steer them in the right direction, here are a few remarks on this topic. All code changes I have made so far are not operating system specific. Although I mostly work under Windows XP , I have also tested my mod in Pale Moon 32 under Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, for example. But I didn't have to do this because, as I said, there were no changes I made that could have broken the previous browser or operating system compatibility. So if anyone claims that I have modified uBlock Origin Legacy specifically for use on Windows XP, then that is simply nonsense. In my article about uBlock Origin Legacy, I have provided detailed changelogs for the respective releases, which you can use to get a good overview of what has been changed in each case. So I only see the following options for potential or existing users of the legacy extension of uBlock Orgin: Either they trust me and use my mod or they have to continue using the old, no longer maintained versions. There is also a third option. They can do it themselves. Cheers, AstroSkipper

    Inside your programme folder of Serpent 52 is a subfolder named browser where you have to extract the omni.ja file to a folder in which the hudservice.js file can be found under chrome\devtools\modules\devtools\client\webconsole\.

    Thanks! I don't know. In any case, not from my side. I'm not really a fan of Chrome. Under Windows XP, I mainly use New Moon 28, Mypal 68 and Serpent, all descendants of old Firefox versions. On my Android tablet, I have to put up with a pure Chrome world. Then please not under Windows XP as well. I hope you can understand that.

    FYI, I have just fixed the sporadic loading errors of the filter list "Online Malicious URL Blocklist (AdGuard)" in uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.32. The fix will be provided with my next release. Cheers, AstroSkipper

    You're welcome! I am pleased to hear that my mod is working for you as it should. This thread was created by me so that everything about extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers can be posted. You can find all the important links immediately in the first three posts of this thread. Right from the start, I have paid attention to a good and well thought-out structure. My mods, forks and custom buttons are offered here with important information. There will be no decoupling from this thread. In my mods uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 and uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.32, I therefore have implemented a link to the corresponding article with the title "Information" on the About tab for regular checking. Current updates can therefore be found very easily. An automatic update service will not happen. Although I do not need to do that, I am happy to share my work, which is of course very time-consuming, but potential users also need to do their bit by visiting this thread from time to time, reading, searching and asking for information and, above all, leaving feedback. Experiences, suggestions and reporting of issues are particularly important. On the other hand, any form of automatism is counterproductive and generally leads to inertia. I'm not in the mood for that.

    @anton12 As already described in previous posts, you can easily fix this bug yourself manually, strictly following the commit https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/1116e8e137a3525b8313505a71894bb50af816d6 @roytam1 kindly posted. Works great here.

    And here is another important note! In order to install my new mod uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.32 successfully and without any errors, please follow the instructions provided in my article! Here are the essential points once again: Backup all settings via the "Back up to file"" function in uBlock Origin. Completely uninstall the previous uBlock Origin version. Clear the browser cache. Close the browser. Manually delete the ublock0.sqlite file in your profile folder. Restart the browser. Install my mod. Import the settings from the backup file. Starting with the version uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.32, my mod has a new ID. Therefore, a clean install is mandatory. Cheers, AstroSkipper
