XProxy

Yes it is the one i did use to make the stripped version linked in my previous message. My version only has the package for Windows XP and ProxHTTPSproxy. It is only 6.69 MB instead of 16.8 Mo for the full XP Package. Sometimes it is interesting to have the minimum footprint on old machines with very small hard disks or compact flash cards. Install is done directly from the msi file.

Yes i think that the Microsoft installer for VC++ redistributable 14.28.29213.0 is not compatible anymore with SSE only processors, at least for the installer. Version 14.0 was compatible and probably some versions between 14.0 and 14.28. Microsoft did probably enable the SSE2 compilation flag on the latest installers. According to Microsfot this VC++ redistributable needs 1 GB of RAM. The machine where i did install it has only 512 MB. But the error message i got does not seem to show a memory problem. I think that it is more an SSE2 or AMD processor compatibility problem. According to Chat GPT, the problem does come from missing SSE2. The VC++ 2015-2019 distributable package can fail for the more recent versions. And even when installed manually or with another installer, It could be possible that some parts of the installed packages could not work without SSE2. A few Athlon XP SSE bugs have been reported in a multithreaded environment. But i feel that we are not in this case here. Then i did find a solution, using a VC++ redistributable AIO installer. Here is a stripped version of this package, where i did remove everything except the needed VC++ 14.28.29213.0 redistributable. This installer does not cause the missing instruction error. I did install only the minimal package that seems enough for ProxHTTPSProxy. https://www.stonerecording.art/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/VC_redist.x86-v14.28.29213.0-AIO-version.zip Actually i did test and use successfully a ProxyMII_220717 version on a Athlon XP processor. Seems to work. I did not test yet ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3, but i'm quite confident that it should works too.

Thanks a lot for those precise answers. I was able to find the problem. I made an error when locating Visual C++ 14.28.29213.0 redistributable. In fact i had version 14.0.23026 installed... After downloading and installing the right version, i can now start ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3. One day of head scratching for this error Plus one hour of research and URL manipulations to get around the Mediafire blocked file Looking for the right version i did see a 14.29.30139 version : https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/2883-microsoft-visual-c-redist-2015-2019-for-windows-xp/ Is it really working ? I can now try 3V3 on the Athlon XP-M machine where i need it. In the meantime i did install an SSE2 TLS 1.2 version on another PC in the same network, and did configure the Athlon XP machine proxy settings to target this PC. This was working. Edit : i cannot install Visual C++ 14.28.29213.0 redistributable on this Athlon XP-M machine (SSE compatible). I got this error : As a side note, a lot of forums posts have lost interest because the files they are pointing to have been deleted, sometimes by antivirus systems, sometimes because the site did close, or other reasons. It's good when possible to self host, use archive sites for such important and extensive works, and or at least have a local copy. Thanks a lot for all this very nice work.

I have errors when trying to access files linked in the beginning of this thread.. For example for ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3, i get this for this link : https://www.mediafire.com/file/1fd0ezzpuy7qctu/ProxHTTPSProxy_TLS_1_3_1_5_220717_PopMenu_3V3.7z/file I was able to finally get it after creating a mediafire account and through URL manipulation. Then after testing on 2 different Windows XP sp3 machines (with Intel SSE2 support), i was not able to get it working. Seems like Python 3.7 does not work on them : I get this error : C:\Program Files\ProxHTTPSProxy_TLS_1_3>ProxHTTPSProxy.EXE Fatal Python error: initfsencoding: unable to load the file system codec ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings' Same error if i try to run the provided Python 3.7 from the command line : C:\Program Files\ProxHTTPSProxy_TLS_1_3\python>python37.exe Fatal Python error: initfsencoding: unable to load the file system codec ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings' (I did install .net framework 4.0 and VC2015 Redistributable 14.0.23026.) Is there a ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu TLS 1.3 3V3 version without python ? I was able to get MII v1.5 working. But this version does not work with an Athlon XP machine without SSE2 support. What ProxHTTPSProxy version should i use for Windows XP sp3 on a SSE only processor (i need TLS 1.2 and recent Certificate support to access aviationweather.gov) ? Thanks for helping.
