    You could also perhaps use speedguide.net 's TCPOptimizer...

    Since Sandboxie wasn't always stable on my machine (startup error "!", couldn't load service), I changed FSFilter Infrastructure GroupOrderList setting back to 04 (factory setting). With factory XP filesystem (HKLM/System/CurrentCtrlSet/Control/Filesystem). Currently I'm testing FSFilter Infrastructure "05 01 02 03 04 05" setting (I chose 05 because "Primary Disk" group has 05), because 04 is known to cause hiccups while web-browsing. It works better than 04 and similar speed as 03 with better compatibility. I'm also testing 06 to match the longest group fltmgr carries, the "Filter" to see if there's further improvement. Results: 6 is not balanced - you got speed and slowdowns one after one. 05 is optimal (as with Primary Disk).

    I found the optimal Filter group setting to be 06 (with default XP filesystem ** ), win2003 has it at 07 (has another service at tag=7) but both contain a "dead" service at tag=b which doesn't count. System is faster and more responsive. Attached is the .txt / .reg file. ** Explanation: default XP filesystem means factory settings for file system in registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem - disable8dot3=0, win31=0, win95t=1.

    Windows 7-10 doesn't always make that "System reserved" partition. When there is WinXP installed on E: (second partition on primary disk, secondary disk is D:) and you install Win "7" or "10" on C: or D: (partitions already existing and 4K-aligned) you'll get a normal installation without any hidden partitions created.

    In Serpent 52.9 wildberries don't work (checking indefinitely), vk works/shows (didn't log in), instagram works/shows (didn't log in).

    Maybe you're just too quick for the hardware - sometimes it takes a bit to show restore session button/option in "History". It's now faster than ever here after I balanced the FSFilter sub-system: I extend my dumpster fire remark to all Windows.

    You still haven't used the latest version? Restore session has never been broken here (that I would notice) and I do use it from time to time. Sometimes it just take a bit longer to load/show that button/option at the bottom of the start page or in "History" menu. --------------------------- As for that CSS nesting for those icons - I do read the news and if it is about dumpster fire that is Windows NT 6.x, so be it.

    While reading The Register about new Win11 "feature", I went to its Microsoft page and there (scroll down) linked_in, facebook and other socialist media icons are super-sized in 2025-03-27 version of Serpent 52.9.

    @Multibooter Please also delete the "Group" (file system) reg. file for Sbiedrv - it is not needed when XP filesystem is factory (no NTFSLastAccessUpdate tweak). I sent you PM about this...

    I would advise you to only use Spybot_Search_n_destroy_1.6.2 additions to hosts file and maybe a few specific others for particular programs that you add yourself.

    After a long time with Serpent (still my main browser) I finally installed Supermium (R7, ungoogled) due to its AVIF support and it works well and if you install "simple grey" theme, you get nice rounded tabs and good for eyes.

    Thank you.

    @roytam1 All mail programs' links are "404", please, correct them if you would.

    @basilisk-dev Might I bother you to implement AVIF image decompression into basilisk? Whilst it's google's nasty preference over the better JPEG-XL it's still useful to have all the sites working...
