Adobe Flash, Shockwave, and Oracle Java on XP (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to Dave-H's topic in Windows XP
Such a diffrent file structure... I have a functional (extracted) version 8.0 copied on top of installed 7.x, The files in this distribution are so different, that I am afraid to use out of virtual until confirmed working. Watching. Thanks! -
I have not tried it, and I do not know if it would require the instalation of a desktop client, but the firefox addon can be installed in Basilisk 52 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cisco-webex-extension/

He, I meant latest. 7.3.3. Filehippo and similar list it as XP compatible. But the offline versions I have found do not run on XP. The online version does run, but I do not want to blindly install google software because it installs other things (like googleupdate). And I dislike the spyware character that I assume those things may have. EDIT: @VistaLover was right. 7.1.8 is the last (as different to latest) version running in XP

Does anyone know where to find the full "offline" installer or portable last version of googleearth pro? I do not want to use an online installer (an installer that downloads from google). Thanks!

I just realized it is possible to use zoom (as in videoconference) in XP. You can donwload the installer at https://zoom.us/download, which is Client v. 5.6.3 for newer windows, 5.0.2 for XP. It is not portable [creates a c:\users\yourname\appdata], but you can extract ZoomInstallerXP.exe, and then unzip the folder "ZoomFull.cab". You can then move the contents of the "bin" subfolder (inside the extracted ZoomFull folder), to a directory of your choice, and adapt the reg file below with your path. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION] "Zoom.exe"=dword:00002af8 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.zoommtg] @="ZoomLauncher" "Content Type"="application/x-zoommtg-launcher" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\ZoomLauncher] @="Zoom Launcher - 3.0.1" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\ZoomLauncher\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Internet\\Network\\Zoom.exe\" \"--url=%1\"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/x-zoommtg-launcher] "Extension"=".zoommtg" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform] "Zoom 3.6.0"="" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\zoommtg] @="URL:Zoom Launcher" "URL Protocol"="" "UseOriginalUrlEncoding"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\zoommtg\DefaultIcon] @="\"C:\\Internet\\Network\\Zoom.exe\",1" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\zoommtg\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Internet\\Network\\Zoom.exe\" \"--url=%1\"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ProtocolExecute\zoommtg] "WarnOnOpen"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Low Rights\ElevationPolicy\{AFDA28A5-1B5F-4635-9877-73DF0D710C9A}] "AppName"="Zoom.exe" "AppPath"="C:\\Internet\\Network" "Policy"=dword:00000003 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\ZoomRecording] @="Zoom Recording File" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\ZoomRecording\DefaultIcon] @="\"C:\\Internet\\Network\\Zoom.exe\",0" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\ZoomRecording\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Internet\\Network\\zTscoder.exe\" \"%1\"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.zoom] @="ZoomRecording" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache] "LangID"=hex(3):09,04 "C:\\Internet\\Network\\Zoom.exe"="Zoom Meetings"

My Browser Builds (Part 2)

Quite true. Silicon Valley wannabe complex, they suffer. It happened to Netscape too, for those who can remember or care to read about it. -
Options/Test path before synchronize? I misread your question: you may want to test realtime synch (top right tick-box) with preview synch (second top left tick-box. In my opinion, t is the fastest, simplest yet complete sync software in XP.

My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Of course, this shouldn't prevent other independent threads, but it may help and encourage roytam1 (and those more closely supporting his work) to continue doing what is being done, which is very good and -for those who depend on old good XP- vital. PS: Clearly, this comment would then belong to RT1 Mail Client and Other s***, lol -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Suggestion based on my usage -merely as food for thought, given the amount of interest (and fun!) roytam1's FOSS spirit is making possible in the XP (and Vista) world- divide the thread in three (I use RT1 as heading for example, I like it): 1 - RT1 Builds [Official]:where only roytam1 and those who are more actively supporting him development-wise (roytam1 should call it) have posting rights. Just "official" stuff, like releases and tutorials. 2 - RT1 Browsers Discussion: to discuss issues about the builds (like pluggins, about:something issues, "version xxx breaks my grandpa's page"), EXCLUDING addons 3 - RT1 Browsers Addons: well, just that 4 - RT1 Mail Client and Other s***: mostly mailnews, and other stuff Just sayin. Be well. -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Thanks roytam1! I have not yet fully test it (I will), but installs correctly, and saves media as it should. The only glitch I have found, so far, is that even if I change preferences to open in a tab, Zotero opens in a panel. This is solved (manually, but sticks during session -probably even after closing session, will report) by pressing the "toggle tab mode" button (top right, just near to the "close" button). I will finally be able to stop using Palemoon 27, which I started using just for Zotero, a couple of years ago. Thanks again! -
Dimio software rules. Dsynchronize (works perfectly in XP) is the best, btw.

It works. Times being what they are, I hope that is so for the best :P

All right. I have been testing for a week or so. It may make a difference with many tabs up. I'll stick with the latest. Thank you ArticFoxie. -

Quite interesting. Unfortunately I don't seem able to download anything earlier than 2020-09. Thanks, ArticFoxie. -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Referent to the conversation around what version of the builds to use: which basilisk 52 do you guys who benchmark recommend? I have been using the last version but the loading lag is growing, which I assume may be a function of the scripts used in current pages, but may also be a function of the build. Just wondering. -
I have 5.2.38 running. I dont know if it would work with all OS, though.

Copy that. Pspad works perfectly. I guess that solves my choice. -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
IT runs with no problem, but many times it says "the file doesnt exist" when opening using double click. Opening from inside notepad++ (file>open) works fine, even identifying the relevant directory from which the failed double clicked file was originally launched. If anyone has had this issue and have solution, please share it. Cheers! -

Is ublock 1.17.2 working for you? In my case it is blocking, but the interface to block and see what is being blocked is empty... Basilisk 52 last version. -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
dmiranda replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Thanks. I made it work with SMplayer, but after some changes. I have the last version (19.10) portable, but the MPV version on it doesn't work in XP. So I went to older versiones and found that the MPV version included in SMplayer 17.3.0 does the trick. Kept looking around, and made it work in VLC 3.08 (not portable). Go to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/videolan/vlc/master/share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua and copy into a text file that you have to save as YOUR-VLC-FOLDER\\lua\playlist\youtube.lua. Works beautifully, as all good things gotta be. Cheers. PD1: attached the settings.ini for SMplayer (portable version) that goes in the root folder. Unfortunately, the streaming stops at the add. But I guess some more tweaking may do the trick. smplayer.ini -

Interesting. You simply enter the app? Can you share an example? -
The trick is to block internet access to CCleaner. You can do so with any freeware firewall still working on XP. For instance, privatefirewall7.0
