Well the 64-bit version's working fine so I suppose this isn't too big of an issue. 13 hours ago, Jakob99 said: Sorry for double post, but Facebook Live videos are a fail with the very latest Firefox on Vista. Not sure if these specifically have been mentioned. I know Youtube has, but not sure about Facebook, specifically Facebook Live videos. It's working fine for me. I installed the Media Foundation Platform though in the mfplatsetup zip... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox’s requirement for certain Windows 7 file versions has been known to win32 since July 2020 and the installer you mention was a real achievement, but I wonder if it might affect media software that expects only Vista file versions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to worry about that, it doesnt work anyways, i have the 7000 beta build and even after replacing wploc you get a version mismatch error. If you replace all the wmp dll files it complains for kernelbase.dll and other missing functions. I even had a separate topic few years back, ive tried this many times but to no avail.

I tried it using files from Windows 7 SP1 with all the updates and got this. If we can fix that error, it may work.

yoltboy01 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Maybe WMP12 (and hopefully other Media Software like Spotify) will work with the next version of Extended Kernel. I hope we will someday have latest Skype, Spotify, OneDrive and OneNote working on Vista. I wanted to upload a "Windows Vista AIO April 2017" version to archive.org. I don't know if a version with Extended Kernel included is allowed, probably not, but with that we don't always need to update Vista first, after reinstalling it. I think I will include IE9 patches till June 2019, working WSUS server, and the Root Certificate Update. I lately saw that they havent updated their Vista database for years now, however they keep pushing new XP, Win7-Win10 ISOs but exclude Vista. If you have any wish what I could include into the ISO File, before uploading you can comment. Edited May 17, 2021 by Tripredacus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VistaLover Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 @yoltboy01 : Make sure not to link any of your endeavours here, else you'll get summarily BANNED... (FWIW, I'm not even sure that "site" you simply "mentioned" will go down well with the mods here... Just friendly advice, nothing more... ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
