Anyone have a problem with 3rd party sidebar gadgets that are not re-loading after reboot since new kernel update? Everytime I reboot the computer I need to re-attach them to sidebar
Redirect the original ole32.dll file locally, perhaps it will help.

How did you manage to bypass the Discord updater on that portable version though?
All you need to do is delete the updater.node file.

You need to download Dependency Walker in the appropriate version (x86 or x64) for the gallery, otherwise nothing meaningful will result.

@Zoomer88 You must use the revised version of the March 9 extended kernel, it is available in the mega.nz folder.
This version fixed the bug you are talking about.

Failed to launch Photo Gallery. Perhaps there is a lack of free space on the hard drive, or critical files are missing from Windows. (I used Google Translate to translate, so, it is not accurate)
Check this application with Dependency Walker.

I tried even to redirect to original files, but still the same error
Could you translate the content of the error message?
Unfortunately, as a Pole, I still do not know Ukrainian, although it has been coming in handy for a year now
Greetings to Ukraine!

Why March 2023 Extended Kernel breaks Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011? And could someone figure out how to get it working again?
Redirect locally an older version of the extended kernel.

@win32 I managed to add the missing features needed to run FF 60 ESR on Vista x86, but I get an appcrash error. I disabled DEP via a command in CMD.
What could I have done wrong?

Windows XP 32-bit can handle up to 4 GB RAM maximum. Windows XP 64-bit, however, can handle up to 128 GB RAM maximum, which is 32 times the amount XP 32-bit can handle.
There is also a "PAE Patch" for XP x86 that also allows you to use up to 128GB of RAM.

You don't need an upgrade! You need to knock down "almost 100 processes" by MORE THAN HALF.
Actually, you are right. Unfortunately today the cheap and crappy SSD with Vista decided to crash, so I will have to reinstall it on HDD

My Vista x64 has almost 100 processes at this moment and runs poorly on an overclocked Pentium E6600 CPU. I need to upgrade this computer to a Quad Q6600, which I also own.

In my opinion, you should buy an SSD or at least make RAID 0 of two HDDs (not very safe for data). Try to disable indexing and automatic defragmentation (and do it for the system drive, by the way)

Problematic as a meaning of what?
For example, it caused Sony Vegas to be unable to load .NET libraries.
I managed to bypass the Discord updater, but this time I get a javascript error....

In general, Vista extended kernel works very well for me in version 20230306. However, I will share my solutions to run software that with the extended kernel does not work properly and some other things.
Vegas Pro 18 (and older versions) - For some reason, Vegas Pro 18 as well as older versions such as 16 or 14 did not want to run properly when I used any of the extended kernel versions, latest or older redirected locally. The solution turned out to be a local redirect of the original kernel32.dll, but that's not the end of the story. You have to replace one of the kernel32 imports in the Vegas ErrorReport.dll file using CFF Explorer (I don't remember the exact name, but it is the only import with the beginning of the name K32). The second missing function TryAcquireSRWLockExclusive should be added to the exports using ExportTableTester and CFF Explorer in the original kernel32 redirected locally.
MegaDownloader 1.8 - here it was enough to redirect locally kernel32.dll from the October version of the extended kernel.
Zoom - to run it, just redirect gdiplus.dll locally from Windows 7.
Chromium-based browsers - the March 6 version messed up the video in these browsers, the solution is to install the new March 9 version with the corrected userenv.dll and kernel32.dll file.
I also tried to install Office 2013 according to one user's guide, none of the programs wanted to run, I have no idea what caused it, because I installed the good old Office 2010 anyway
As for Discord, the unofficial Lightcord client works seamlessly. Be aware, however, that Discord can ban user accounts for using unofficial clients. Win32 mentioned that the failure of the official Discord client to work may be due to IE dependencies. But that would be illogical, since the same client works on Windows 7 with IE8 installed.
.NET 4.8 was unfortunately problematic, version 4.6.2 is enough for 95% of the software, and it does not cause problems with application performance.

After Effects / Photoshop 2019 do not launch because of missing entry points in the Kernel32 dll, Audition 2020 works up to a certain update, which just so happened to be the one that changed their icon to their modern variants, an issue with MFTranscode will pop up but you'll just have to ignore it and wait until it launches, as soon as you interact with the error window the program will crash, Direct2D is also disabled for stability.
Did you installed mfplat ported from newer systems for Vista?

@win32 released a revised version of the March 6 extended kernel, Chromium problem resolved

@WinFX I have done everything according to your instructions and programs such as Word and Excel do not start at all. Programs that have a problem with missing functions display an error appropriate for such a situation.

Or his Chromium simply lacks the proper codecs. As an example, Opera doesn't have H264 codec. And only some of the ungoogled variants have the full set of codecs.
I think that this is not the problem, because a simple kernel redirect is enough, everything except the message about the lack of support for Vista and XP then works. By the way, for some reason applications that need the osver.ini file to work, or rather their installers are not able to create shortcuts, an error appears.

I already know, Chromium does not get along with the kernel32.dll wrapper. After locally redirecting the original kernel32.dll included with this version of the extended kernel, there is no problem with movies, but a message about the end of support for XP and Vista is displayed (probably Chromium derives version information from the kernel)

@win32 Chrome, even in version 109 does not play YouTube videos without the --no-sandbox flag. What causes this?

You can try modifying the inf file of the latest driver for Vista x86, but I'm not sure if that will work. The drivers modified by win32 are probably only for the x64 version

ive been using windows vista x86 for a while now and it's rock solid compared to the x64 version and have been looking for a good replacement for the extended kernal for use on 32bit os if anyone knows of anything like this it would be much appreciated
There are x86 files in the win32 folder on mega.nz, but they were last modified in 2021
I'd also like to use the extended kernel on the 32-bit version, but on the other hand it's understandable that the author probably doesn't have time to fine-tune both versions alone.
If Vista x64 without an extended kernel works better for you, you can simply redirect files for specific applications.
Sorry for the slip-up in the post above, the quote translated along with the rest of the page. I ask the moderator to remove it.

Newer Versions Of Chrome On Windows 7?
in Windows 7

Probably the last 100% working stable version at this point is 110. On the other hand, from the "dev/canary" channel I managed to run probably build 5545 as the last one with the help of a user who unfortunately "escaped" from the forum....
