Got it working! Need @run-at document-start and I've been using document-end

Those are from my two VMs since I was replying to UCyborg that tried Tiny10 in a VM. I've never actually tried Tiny10 and agree with @Tripredacus that is should be considered warez. I use WinReducerEX and it falls in the same class of "tools" as nLite, vLite, NTLite, and others that I don't recall the name of offhand. I also place these "tools" in the same category of "extended kernels" and feel MSFN is not the place to discuss details on how to use these "tools" to customize install media. "But I'm no lawyer", lol.

I do my own install media slipstreams and customizations and bloat removal and I guess I don't need some "Tiny10" developer doing it for me. My used-space is HALF the disk space that Tiny10 boasts, and this is AFTER installing a web browser and email client. I have two flavors of Win10 - 2016 LTSB and 21H2 LTSC. Technically, my 21H2 LTSC is "temporary/testing" and not activated, my company allows one company laptop and one home desktop install but I don't want to do an activation until I know it's tweaked to my liking. I thought I had a 2019 (LTSB?) around also but can't find it offhand (which tells me it never gained me anything over 2016).

I've done better than what that link boasts of Tiny10. From the link:

Still not working on my end. Partly because I can't find that 500 vs 400 font-weight - what URL would give me that and can I get a screencap? None of my font sizes changed with the recent forum update so I have no frame of reference on what to look for. I'm running with only Tampermonkey and the above as a userscript, replaced with 800 instead of 400, that should make any font changes stand out BIG, but I'm not getting any changes.

I have not tried it. Generally speaking, I would avoid these types of "operating systems".

Because I never read this thread until today. What I wonder is why you had to throw my name out there? It's okay if your world revolves around me, I get it. My world revolves around me also. (Technically speaking, EVERYBODY'S world revolves around THEMSELF - their eyes, their ears, their perceptions.) waka waka waka

Yeah, yeah, yeah. A bold case of "never say never". Or just too many folks being quite bored and hanging on every word and literal interpretation. You still knew what I meant, feel free to visit the repack "Russian" web site and report back on just how much ENGLISH is on that page. My point remains - I do not need a "translation" feature embedded into my browser and nor do I need a "translation" extension - If I cannot READ the web site, then that site is NOT FOR ME.

lol, good point. The "repack" web site is a "hybrid" web site - half ENGLISH half not. I did not need any "translation" feature to find the link and to download. edit - but if you don't know what you are hunting for and just translate Chinese web sites, would you "trust" the download? I wouldn't.

I'm not the one to ask. I never never NEVER visit non-English web pages. I see them as a security risk and handing over my IP Address to untrustworthy folks. edit - i.e., I have no use for any "translation" feature, be it embedded or be it an extension.

The best fix for that seems to be here - https://msfn.org/board/topic/184624-arcticfoxienotheretoplaygames-360chrome-v1352036-rebuild-1/?do=findComment&comment=1246644 I have not tried it myself but @rereser is a respectable source.

Your extension is not working. Keep trying more or use the loader.ini. The loader.ini can be set to Chrome 114 on Win10 x64 even though this VM's OS is XP x86.

I have not tried to alter the AppVersion independently of the User-Agent. The User-Agent is set by the loader.ini and the AppVersion that is reported "follows" the User-Agent.

All it takes is ONE letter difference on any of the files "inside" the .crx and it will have an entirely different set of letters. There "might" be a case where an "auto-update" from one version to the next would keep the same set of letters, have not tested because I disable auto-update.

That actually makes sense. It should have never been named "extension_2_4_1_0". That series of random letters is the checksum on the .crx contents.

You should not have to rename the extensions folders. The seemingly-random extension folder naming scheme is an algebraic checksum of the extensions inner files. The .crx is just a renamed .zip. Change any file inside that .zip/.crx and the extension folder name will change accordingly when installed via Developer Mode.

Wow! A 17 year old thread brought back to life with a poll on age. So shouldn't those poll results auto-update every year? Because I guarantee you that the biggest segment of the MSFN Population is no longer the 15 to 24 groups!

Embedded or extension? Was it server-side and we just had to wait it out for it to return on its own?

Same here (since login is not required). I did a Google for "is msfn.org down" during our outage and performing that search just now does show Twitter in the top search results and it does have a "up and running" status message. The Facebook page also shows up in the top results - but no status message. I think that's our tell-tale - Twitter is likely the preferred but only our next outage will really tell us (four years to the month between most-recent post and second-to-most-recent post).

<OT> We are straying quite a bit from the original topic but I will add that I am also a member at Eclec and I did visit Eclec when MSFN was down to see if other both-site-members posted anything in regards to the outage (I didn't see one). I use the Maxthon theme at Eclec - but even the forum owner wouldn't recognize it on my computer, I love Stylus and hate non-scrolling background images, box shadows, linear gradients, anti-ailasing, dark mode, and forced hardware acceleration - all are disabled on my setup. I do not get any CPU spike even on Marmaduke Ungoogled v113 on Win10. This wouldn't be the first web site (new or old browser) where background-images, box shadows, and linear gradients effected performance. </OT>

I do keep this extension in my arsenal, but seldom do I ever need to override the user-agent set in loader.ini (only once in fact, and that was for testing for another MSFN Member). https://www.crx4chrome.com/extensions/djflhoibgkdhkhhcedjiklpkjnoahfmg/

I don't suggest extensions for the sake of switching the User-Agent. As pointed out, they don't "always" work because there are other means to detect your browser. That said, using the loader.ini to set your User-Agent does correctly also update AppVersion accordingly.

I haven't had any success at getting any CSS items to "replace". Has anyone else given this a try?

For reference copied from another thread (so I don't lose it and can experiment during free-time):

Thanks. I enable this flag now by default as this is the 2nd or 3rd time a web site issue has been tracked down to this flag.
