    Please calm down, I only wrote that I liked that colour. Would it a bother if ask, I read you tried chinese catsxp browser, could you tell me, if there's a similar extension for 360, where it would show a similar open/save dialog, like in catsxp (when you save a jpeg file, for example). I just thought it might be, cause they're similar, thanks.

    On this screenshot XP skin looks like it needs to be, soft pastel colours. Neutral. not distracting. Is this the skin you're going to port?

    Now I noticed "Ask where to save each file before downloading" doesn't work anymore. Apps like the German MKVToolNix 74.0.0 work fine though. It's mostly a browser and book readers based on chrome issue.

    This "XP" skin is very bright and has acid colours, otherwise I have nothing against XP and its themes. It's just distracting, I prefer to look at websites. not browser skins. My opinion, skins must be more neutral.

    Hi@win32, for the first time a small issue with the kernel, short story, I had to install an update KB4499184, to be able to run a game, now open/save dialog doesn't work in most apps, chrome for example. This is with all kernels, but currently I'm on v06102022. I also have the platform and DX11 update, that's all. Thanks for looking into this.

    Yes, I got the same error on this browser. I've tried several user agents, including mobile android, no luck. Guess I won't order LG, and go buy a Philips instead.

    I understand the difference between 86 and 87 isn't big, but have you tried on 87 ported XP minibrowser? Or the 13.0 version of this one, not 13.5?
  8. Dixel
    Yes, because it can't allocate memory properly, hence what I wrote before. Since 115/116 they removed the old portions of the code, so you would need to build a new chrome from scratch.

    Both (Vista and 7) don't have USB3.0/1 drivers at all! So to make an install on a modern board, you need to take boot.wim (NOT install.wim) from Windows 8!
  10. Dixel
    Interesting! And what if one just extracts them, and then installs via the simple "inf" method?
  11. Dixel
    Not sure why all the hassle then? boot.wim won't add the drivers into your system, it has a temp driver only, for the installation process only! (hence the name "boot")
  12. Dixel
    Why not? It works with the new mobos that need USB3.1 drivers for the installation (the ones that don't have PS/2). But he made a mistake, he would have needed to take boot.win, not install.wim from Windows 8, not 7! 7 is too old, and missing these drivers.

    Please include the specs, was it HDD or SSD and so on.

    Besides, more and more software will rely on that function, you wouldn't want to use only chrome 117 on your 8.1 OS, would you? Right, you would want games, photoshop, etc. Even now, for many major software 1803 is the cut-off minimum, so 1809 is the sweet point right now. But like I said earlier, Chrome is open source, so people are welcome to prove me wrong, and I'd be glad to see it!

    Maybe it works now, but what about later? You want someone to waste enormous amounts of time porting something that already 8 years old? From what I see in their development, they are going the route of increasing the dependencies on the newer memory functions, which was not yet widely used in the early Windows 10 releases. TH2 version (1511) is from 2015, windows 8.1 is from 2013, do the math.

    Why, really? DiscardVirtualMemory is supported Windows 8.1 [desktop apps | UWP apps] https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/memoryapi/nf-memoryapi-discardvirtualmemory

    After all this time, does AC Valhalla run on Windows 8.1? On one hand, you need directx12 and windows 8.1 is only compatible with directx11.1. On another, perhaps a fix exists? Please let me know.

    From my research, WD is simply not capable to produce disks of any capacity above 6TB. I have WD60EFAX (6TB SMR), it's fine, despite the new not so popular SMR tech. It's still too new to tell about the longevity.
  19. Dixel
    I'm afraid not, because it would require backporting the whole shared memory API from Windows 10 build 1809 to windows 8.1. Better/easier/legally safer to build chromium from scratch (source), which is open, so anyone can try.

    Def. update is a blob in the format they previously used, just added new known vulnerabilities, collected during these years. .>>> Could you please not use CAPSLOCK, at least not that often, thanks.

    What are you trying to edit "without success"? "Sunsetting Chrome Translate for old Chrome" - is the cause. Research done in a couple of clicks. https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/217285368/sunsetting-chrome-translate-for-chrome-m95-and-older?hl=en They claim to still support 96 and up, which is not entirely true, at least on my end, I was only able to get translate fully working with Chrome 103 (May or June 2022).

    Firefox has a nasty bug, where it can't properly process enterprise or self-signed roots. If you encountered them, I advise to add this string to default.ini and then try again, security.enterprise_roots.enabled=true

    I will give a simple hint, Very simple, but not everyone knows. When you're on a slow, old PC, especially if you have a mechanical HDD, wait for all extensions to kick in, after you opened the browser!

    Firefox relies on its own cert store, whereas 360 uses both, its own, plus the one on your PC. Moreover, in 360 it can be forced to proceed with unsafe certs with a flag (which they might have done with an XP version, at least). Try to force this one, too.
