They are. Thanks.

all 4 of these are 404s

For some seasonal fun -- https://www.dropbox.com/s/tuaz0t1i48ac77l/newtab.zip?dl=1 Place in same directory as "chrome.dll", "options.zip", "resources.pak", et cetera. Now a random Christmas Scene will load for all New Tab pages (assuming you use chrome://newtab/ for new tabs or on startup). 16 images (all from wallpapers.com) are stored within the .zip, no images are fetched externally.

360Chrome DOES SAVE TABS ON CRASH.

Not possible. A new loader could be compiled that parses the Local State file and clears session-restore tabs in the event of a crash flag. But I save that project for somebody else to pick up.

Already in the settings. But make sure you are not clearing cache and cookies on exit. Which means also to not use the loader .ini file to delete session content either.

I am seeing a method to perform this. But it isn't exactly for the "average" user. There is a file called "Local State" in the User Data folder. A "normal exit" is on the left. A "browser crash" is on the right. Note also that there are "system crash" variables also in this file but I did not "force" a SYSTEM crash to witness these variables, I only forced a BROWSER crash.

So you want to SAVE TABS with a normal exit but NOT save tabs on a system crash?

With a quick search, I could not find the useragent string that many folks use to force Mobile YouTube. Would be interesting to see if that useragent is retrieving VP9 or AV1.

For page zoom, just hold the Ctrl keyboard key down and hit the numpad + or - key and that will zoom that tab in or out.

There appears to be something that the Pale Moon Forks are doing to force VP9 (I tend to feel like all of Roytam1's builds are more of a Pale Moon Fork then they are a Firefox Fork, but that's a matter of semantics). "Real" Firefox on Win10, fresh profile right out-of-the-box, is served AV1 videos by Mobile YouTube.

Mobile YouTube sends St52 360p at 30FPS but in VP9 codec. edit - same appears to be true for ArcticFox 40, NM27, and NM28. So Mobile YouTube sends Chromium Flavors AV1 but sends Mozilla Flavors VP9 ??? No clue what it actually sends to an actual mobile phone browser.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say "most of them". I say that for two reason - for one, desktop users that don't like the "heaviness" of YouTube seem to always resort to the "mobile" version of YouTube as their "solution". For two, I kind of have to "assume" that MOST of YouTube visitors aren't visiting via a desktop computer, but rather from their mobile phone. If you look closer, or unless I'm just missing something, it appears that the "heaviness" of YouTube is NOT solved by using the "mobile" version! The "mobile" version will drop the resolution of the video to a very low fast-for-downloading 360p at 30FPS - but it also sends the CPU-intensive AV1 codec. edit - make that three reasons, with the third reason being Chromium Flavor browsers receiving AV1 and Mozilla Flavor browsers receiving VP9. edit2 - brand new install of Firefox with fresh profile on Win10 also receives AV1.

I still use one of those "natural keyboards" But I also feel like I had to teach myself "two ways" to type - one way for at home, another way for at work. And I had to teach myself to use the left hand for #6 versus the right hand - which probably only means I was always using the wrong finger for #6 to begin with. I haven't shopped around for one of the "natural keyboards" in years though, don't think they make them with the short-stroke-depress keys like most keyboards nowadays. The short-stroke-depress keys is probably much more of a fatique-preventative ergonomic advancement than the angled "natural keyboard" was/is.

I for one would be interested in knowing your process of tweaks and optimizations. I use NTLite and WinReducerEX100 but you have taken it up a notch if you're taking dll's from 8.1 and replacing your Win10 dll's, I've never done anything like that but the idea is quite intriquing.

Very impressive! I was able to tweak my LTSB down to 29 processes and 290 threads. It's been a while since doing my tweaks but I seem to recall that the "default install" had somewhere between 48 and 60 processes! Don't recall the exact number, but it was a far cry from only 29

That's an issue with whatever you are using to replace your start menu.

Can you show us a screencap so we can see what you see?

According to here - https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/server-2003-and-2003-r2-downloads.57526/page-10 That KB is availabe here - https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/restore-windows-update-for-windows-xp-server-2003.82538/ But most posts are simply "You need to login to view this posts content." so I cannot verify.

Using this as an example - http://qrcode.meetheed.com/qrcode_examples.php For me, the QR Code does not change in appearance for regular versus dark mode. So it would seem that the phone should be able to read them no matter which mode you were using.

There is no real "short instruction" on how to use style sheets. If you can provide an actual web site where the QR Code cannot be read by your phone, then perhaps a solution can be found. Preferrably not a web site that requires an "account" or "login". It's also probably the other way around that needs investigated - not the web browser and how it displays the QR Code, but rather a setting on the phone and how it reads the QR Code.

CSS has an invert() function. So for those that want to use a dark mode but not have certain images "dark", you could use a user style sheet to invert the invert.

That kind of doesn't help us to help you. Do you have a list of "only the good updates" so that we that are trying to assist you can see if we have them or not?

Do you have a list of what you are hunting for?

And I didn't catch this until "just now", but you did specifically cite 1080p@60FPS. By default, I do intentionally force 30FPS max so of course my standard YouTube desktop would have yielded a lower CPU load. I didn't see a setting to force Piped to use 30FPS instead of 60FPS. Nor did I see a way to seen what FPS the video even "is", for that matter.
