This problem with the update server from MS I have already pointed out! I update about 12 hours after reporting an update because of this circumstance. An indication of this problem I could well imagine, in future announcements with the Root respectively Rekoved certificate updates. MS just wants to annoy us!

With the LatestUpdateCheck queries in the inf file, only regular updates from MS are queried, otherwise this could happen again as with MikeyV and certain unified basic prerequisites are created. Quite simply said every month will be expected after the current updates of MS (Before the official updates of MS, Extended XP is to be uninstalled) will also be an updated extended XP (cumulative). That means nothing else, no official updates or changes from system files, in Windows XP, have to be uninstalled before. As long as there are patches (POSReady 2009) of MS, I see no better handling so that it does not lead to chaos. Then Dibya should communicate accordingly.

First, I agree with the remarks of jaclaz, who has already done a well-founded approach. Secondly, before you re-publish Extended XP, the two files ws2_32.dll and usp10.dll have to be brought to the current security level, thoroughly tested and then with appropriate note, because of the POSReady 2009 updates, first to uninstall Extended XP before the official patches are installed. This makes the matter not easier to times every month a match is pending with possible updating of Extended XP! This has the first priority and afterwards additions can be added so that newer programs can work again. Incidentally, this corrected installer I have not made available to you with the current files is published, but to the illustrative as one the files are installed correctly and on the other hand because of the corrected version of some files.

Too bad, with the fade effect (which I use regularly) this problem is not present, only with the roll effect it is acute. It is not the perfect condition and we hope that the problem will be solved. Think this in the changeover to Visual Studio 2015 so some not functioning correctly as it should. In the XP version, the sound quality is horrible for me, as I mentioned. Update 03/12/2017 Skype version 7.32 will be delivered again. @Dave-H Update 03/17/2017 Skype version 7.33.xx.105 appeared, problems with XP menus are set to "scroll" mode and sound quality of XP variant not fixed! @Dave-H Update 03/26/2017 Skype version 7.34.xx.102 appeared, problems with XP menus are set to "scroll" mode and sound quality of XP variant not fixed!

I also do not use automatic updating, with the download link for the FullInstaller under Windows XP the latest version of Skype (SkypeSetupFullXp.exe) is offered. Direct links: https://download.skype.com/caadd0c815db8f80402ba91122953ae8/SkypeSetupFullXp.exe for newer Windows: https://download.skype.com/caadd0c815db8f80402ba91122953ae8/SkypeSetupFull.exe

Officially, Skype version 7.33.0.104 is now available for Windows XP. If Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 does not exist, it is also installed with Skype. Unfortunately, with the Windows XP version, I have problems with the sound quality (in comparison between the mid-wave and the ultra-short wave, as if frequencies above 8000 hz are not transmitted) and during the conversation, the green display has no function during the settings for the volume of the loudspeaker. Complete Skype profile I had deleted when changing. Funny? I am back to the msi version for distribution in companies, which works with me so far, until the Skype at the start means that I should download the appropriate version.

I do not mind pushing a project, but the whole thing looks as if you are working on a variety of projects or starting various projects instead of growing into an overall concept. Ultimately, then an installation routine, where some files are not installed if no appropriate file older version exists. Well that's not a good foundation, it's just sloppy and disappointing. Please do not be angry with me Dibya, things are now a big blow you finally wake up and you're a few times thinking about.

There are 3 problems with ExtendedXP Release, ws2_32.dll exist version 5.1.2600.7074 (from KB3161949 Secure update June 2016) > ExtendedXP version 5.1.2600.5514 If the security update is already included in the file "ws2_32.dll", otherwise there might be a security vulnerability! Also, this patched file is not installed because the existing version is higher than the version to be installed. mfc40.dll exist version 4.1.0.6151 (932 KB (954.368 Bytes)) > ExtendedXP version 4.1.0.6151 (932 KB (954.752 Bytes ???)) mfc40u.dll exist version 4.1.0.6151 (931 KB (953.856 Bytes)) > ExtendedXP version 4.1.0.6151 (931 KB (954.288 Bytes ???)) Were changes made to the two files? If so, why was the version number not adapted? A thank you to @blackwingcat for the mfc extension patch (KB2584577-v0.4), the ReactOS team (Wine project authors), to @Dibya for the supplements and all the people who have contributed.

Good news, downloaded and tested the new version (7.33.32.104) of Skype (msi version for distribution in companies / no Updater). It has been migrated from Visual Studio 2013 to 2015 (There seems to be still in the process to adapt the code of Skype). In the Installer will not have Visual C ++ 2015 libraries with installed and thus must Visual C ++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 installed so Skype works! The problem can also be provoked to change the setting under "effects" / "Use the following transition effect for menus and tooltips". However, when Skype is restarted, this problem with the black popup is no longer. Not perfect, but no longer resistend these black popups.

There is no question of moving your issue into another thread. It was only because you can send me the Minidump files, for this reason I sent you a PM.

PCloud requires C++ Redistributable 2008 and is installed with the program. Here is the link for the latest release (Security Update). NET Framework is not required and is a different construction site. PCloud for Windows XP was created with Visual Studio 2008, so the library (.dll) installed with C ++ Redistributable 2008 is required to run the program. In the case of the possibly occurring Blue Screen, a fault message is issued, which could be very helpful. Is it possible to install other cloud clients that are not compatible or that an installed program does not interact correctly with Explorer? Questions about questions! Sorry, I can not offer as a fast solution.

The following figure shows which entry is needed to make POSReady Updates available.

@glnz What version of PCloud was downloaded? I tested with version 3.1.1 for Windows XP. Strangely the with you the Explorer aborted with Blue Screen. Download: https://www.pcloud.com/release-notes/windows-xp.html

It is not here whether the hardware or driver problems make, but the faulty interface of Skype where this problem caused! For this reason, these questions to recognize certain parallels. The question about the exact version of Skype is unanswered by the Skype version where this problem has. Update: There are two offline installers one for XP (SkypeSetupFullXp.exe) and one for newer versions of Windows (SkypeSetupFull.exe). Now I took the trouble to compare the files "RtmCodecs.dll" (Microsoft Realtime Media Codec Library / for XP 1,94 MB / for newer Windows versions 2,44 MB), "RtmPal.dll" (Microsoft Realtime Media Stack PAL / for XP 261 KB / for newer Windows versions 438 KB), "RtmPltfm.dll" (Microsoft Realtime Media Stack / for XP 7,83 MB / for newer Windows versions 8,14 MB), "ssScreenVVS2 .dll "(Microsoft Real Time Media Screen Scraper / XP 56.1 KB / newer Windows versions 116 KB) which differ from the size. The version I installed (msi version for distribution in companies / no Updater) corresponds to the version for Windows newer versions.

Please give me the exact version of Skype, have the 7.32.32.103 and 7.32.32.104 to choose from.

I have times the new Skype version (7.32.32.104 / msi installer) installed in the VM (in my case without native support of DirectX), where I do not have this error. I would be interested in what graphics card is in use and graphic driver (older or newest).

@glnz Property with pCloud me a free account created, the pCloud software for Windows XP v3.1.1 installed and several tests made without the Explorer any crash has. Tested between my host and a virtual machine. What kind of virus scanner are you using? (Can remind me that Avast was installed with you) The current Avast was all the more Proleme I had under Windows XP, until I could not even change an existing WinRAR archive with WinRAR later. It started with storing Word files under Office 2003 with a error message then were defect, until the Avast thinks the certificates to test from the websites on which I surfs (Man in the middle attack) with the result that many websites no longer Could be opened. This has absolutely nothing more in common with a security gain, it's more an attack on my security and system, for this reason I'm back to version 8. You should not push any problem on the POSReady updates. Above all, it seems easier to find a culprit.

@cc333 Before you install POSReady Updates, please install Microsoft Installer (MSI) 4.5! Download Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable or direct WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe (multilanguage)

@sdfox7 First, thank you for the info that an update for the Flashplayer is available and secondly I absolutely nothing against it if you take the installation info for Google Chrome (adapted to the current version), they do not need from me each time a completely outdated post. It is much easier for less experienced users.

@Dave-H This is clear that I am too late, the irony lies in this. Had already prepared everything and then ........ waiting! This one has to consider MS to be good, which we have been spared from faulty updates.

Shortly and succinctly, Patch day blown off at the last minute! I could have waited a long time. ( https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/msrc/2017/02/14/february-2017-security-update-release )

Since I have always downloaded the Upates manually, I've always synonymous (WinXP x86 DEU & ENU) archived. For ENU I have summarized these times in a package (302 MB), if needed then is please by PM. What a luck I create my own Updaterollups, whereby Windows XP can be updated very fast.

Since I am with the POP fetch with various e-mail clients the setting, the e-mails are not to be deleted by e-mail account, but only by deleting corresponding e-mails in the e-mail client only this from the e- Mail account, you can always access the existing e-mails, regardless of the location or e-mail client. Has me definitely that kind of anger spared to export retrieved e-mails to another e-mail client. On the other hand my assumption is confirmed, on the basis of your certificate info, the OE6 with newer encryption methods not working natively (works on the basis of IE).

For one thing, nobody forces you to use the certificate updater and the second the rekoved root certificates do not get you on this way! The actual problem the more modern encryption procedure are used more and more where OE6 its problems is thus not resolved. Send me a few links with which I can test to find a solution or better take a more modern e-mail client (for example Mozilla Thunderbirth or Opera Mail).

For all those who still use Google Chrome, I would like to provide a small updater for updating the PPAPI Flashplayer. If interested of Google Chrome version 49.0.2623.112 with updated components please PM. Download here Password: 2P&n6KVb1%vA7$eCja5D$hU3B1YvJM9Z4zI9Trz§
