Root Certificates and Revoked Certificates for Windows XP
Dave-H replied to heinoganda's topic in Windows XP
Thank you! -
I agree with you, the original Windows 10 Mail app was very good. Unfortunately, for me at least, it started malfunctioning very badly. I suspect it was fine with Outlook/Hotmail e-mails, that is to say Microsoft ones, but my main e-mail is Yahoo-based, and the mail app started just showing code for a lot of messages from it, or sometimes just the header, making it useless. There were a huge number of complaints online about this, so I wasn't the only one with the problem, but it quickly became evident that Microsoft had no intention of fixing it, as the app was about to be replaced with their shiny new Outlook app. I eventually did go over to the new Outlook app, and I have to say that it isn't that bad IMO. The one thing it won't (yet) do which is annoying is that there's no way of running it automatically in the background on boot, as you could with the Mail app.

That certainly needs checking, there's nothing worse for degrading display quality on a flat screen monitor than not running it at its native panel resolution! FWIW, I'm using version 2036 at 1920x1080, 60Hz. I am using 120 DPI 'large fonts', with a VGA connection when using my old ATI card. Fonts all look absolutely fine.

1440p plays a lot better, it doesn't keep stopping to buffer like 2160p does. There are occasional momentary freezes though, which don't happen on 1080p. All pretty much as expected. As an extra observation, the performance using Firefox 120 on 64 bit Windows 10 is really no better than when using 360Chrome on Windows XP. 1440p is smoother, but 2160p still freezes and buffers all the time. It's not my internet speed, as 2160p streaming is perfect on my smart TV.

@dmiranda Thanks for the information about the current status of Enhancer for YouTube. I didn't know that development had stopped, temporarily I hope. The version I attached is the last that will work on 360Chrome anyway due to manifest version changes, but I use the latest version on Windows 10 in Edge and Firefox. Strangely, despite what the developer has said, it seems to be still working fine for me with the latest Firefox.

YouTube is absolutely fine for me. I have 8GB of RAM fitted, but my 32 bit XP installation can only see 3GB of course. Try installing this extension, which can get rid of a lot of the bloat which slows down YouTube. Note that this is the last usable version on this browser. 360Chrome Enhancer for YouTube Extension 2.0.115 (Last for 360Chrome).crx

@dmiranda Please do not embed such long scripts in posts. I have re-saved it as an attachment.

I wouldn't have thought that disabling integrity or security check warnings was a good idea on principle, unless it was absolutely necessary to make the software usable. From what I've read here, the warning would only impact people if they messed around with the files! I certainly wouldn't ever expect to see it.

360 Extreme Explorer Modified Version
Dave-H replied to Humming Owl's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Potentially yes, but it depends on several things. Firstly, that the installation of Google Chrome is on the same computer. Obviously, you can't just move password files between computers, or someone could steal your saved logins by just copying your file to their machine! Also, if the version of Google Chrome was much later, the format of the file might not be compatible. Not likely to be the case on an XP machine, as the last Google Chrome version which works there is 49. Why don't you back up the equivalent file on Google Chrome, and just try it? If it doesn't work, just restore the original file.- 2,340 replies

360 Extreme Explorer Modified Version
Dave-H replied to Humming Owl's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
It should be in the Program Files\360Chrome\Chrome\User Data\Default folder, if your installation is standard.- 2,340 replies

There will be no closing of threads due to such a trivial 'issue'. This is NotHereToPlayGames' project, and they decide how it proceeds. Please let's concentrate on getting what is probably the last version of this browser which can be used on XP up to scratch, and hope that it extends pretty much trouble free browsing on XP for a while longer. 360Chrome has already extended this for me for a couple of years, for which I'm very grateful.

I will try, although nothing has changed there as far as I know (360Chrome doesn't automatically update extensions without you knowing). This only started happening a few days ago. Other forums which use the same software, like the Malwarebytes forum, seem to have the same problem, the emojis window doesn't load.

How strange, it seems to have no adverse effect on my machine at all. I've never tried 360Chrome on Windows 10. On another subject, is anyone else having problems with the emoji on MSFN with 360Chrome? It was working fine until a day or two ago, now clicking on the emoji button just brings up an empty window with 'Loading...' in it. It's fine on Firefox 118 on Windows 10, so I assume it's not a problem at the server end.
