mina7601 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) You actually don't need Wayback Machine to download that old version. In their GitHub repository, there's a Dropbox link that links to old 3.x.x versions, including 3.1.1 that I mentioned in page 59. Inside that Dropbox link, there are win32 and zip folders, open either of them (it doesn't matter which folder of these 2 you choose to open), and you will see a file named "sqlitestudio-3.1.1.zip". win32inst folder has only the installers for versions 3.2.0 and 3.2.1, so disregard that folder.

Quote To install SQLite Studio (Portable), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell: > choco install sqlite-studio.portable --version=3.1.1 It requires "chocolatey" package manager, an attempt to equip the Windows OS with a package manager like MacOS (Homebrew) and various Linux flavours... AFAIAA, Chocolatey isn't compatible with Windows XP: https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/chocolatey-components-dependencies-and-support-lifecycle#supported-windows-versions If one uses the "Download" button at the bottom of the left sidebar, one ends up with a "sqlite-studio.portable.3.1.1.nupkg" file... I even went as far as extracting that file with 7-zip, in PS script file "./tools/chocolateyInstall.ps1" there indeed lives a "download URL": $packageName = 'sqlite-studio.portable' $url = 'https://sqlitestudio.pl/files/sqlitestudio3/complete/win32/sqlitestudio-3.1.1.zip' $checksum = 'ddcaae8f6579de62174337f50e3a64a6f2112b8189796a7902933dd1bbe140ac' ... but, sadly, that url 404s now (but was actually "saved" by the WA, as @AstroSkipper posted later on) ... So, why was that link posted, especially since some 4min ago before your post "we" already had an answer: 1 hour ago, mina7601 said: The last version of SQLiteStudio for XP is 3.1.1, not 3.2.1. If I'm still missing something obvious, please enlighten me ... Kind regards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, speaking of "groups", you are very selective to whom you admonish. UCyborg is a tech savvy guy, I'm sure he wouldn't have a slightest problem with just a link, without several A4 sheets of reply accompanied it. 10 hours ago, VistaLover said: Thanks for your kind and genuine concern ; Wed, July 26th, will be a living inferno at "my" place (33-44C) , but temps should fall back to tolerable figures after Thurs 27th ... ...

I feel you man, and I'm with you on this, it's also the reason I don't post often on MSFN too. I'm pretty sure others will agree with this. 9 hours ago, VistaLover said: Best wishes to all : remember, we all share the same planet ...

UCyborg Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Thanks, I may have not asked for the download link of SQLiteStudio specifically, but it goes well with the thread topic. Regarding KeePass 2.xx, AFAIK .NET 2.0 is just the minimum, for best plugin compatibility, you want the latest you can get, which in case of Windows XP means .NET 4.0. Last time I checked, Visual C++ redist wasn't specifically required, at least 2.47 on my XP doesn't have any of the mentioned DLLs loaded. Those could also be loaded in as dependencies of some other software, not necessarily KeePass. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekkaman Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Hello everyone, There is a program that I use quite often and it still works on XP. It's called RenameMaster. Basically it lets you rename all the files in a directory at the same time according to many different parameters you can set.
