Software compatible with Windows Vista Extended Kernel

[BlackOtton]

About Ripcord, I thought about it, but I still prefer to use web version/electron app. It might forgot login credentials every time I restart the app, but voice channel as well as screensharing works.

you made it with nativefier (I don’ know precisely how it is written) right? Because I did it too and screen share is a no go. I have to use web version instead.

[BlackOtton]

Yes, nativefier although you need to check the arguments for the app, because I used some to get my full discord to work but I don't remember which ones.

I tried getting Packet Tracer to work and it doesn't. It is 64 bit.

Yeah I already tried everything, even manually adding these missing files, but unfortunately it does not work. BEX64 error appears.

Well guys, here is cent browser  4.2.10.171 (chrome 80) with all extensions working. I have download the 64 bits portable and make changes with CFF explorer to 0000 to work in Vista. 
Initially I used it in windows 7 and from there I installed the extensions, when I started it in Vista all of them were working fine. Another option is 360 Safe Browser, but is chinese. First image is 360 Browser (Chrome 86) Second is Cent Browser. (Chromium 80)

Does 360 browser really look like that out of the box, or is that a theme?

It's a theme, but i've modified it. The original is named "Black Stone" (from https://skin.chrome.360.cn/new/index.php) and mine should be copied after install that into the folder "c:\Program Files (x86)\360Chrome\Chrome\User Data\skin\"

I don't really want to use a Chromium browser, and especially a Chinese one at that, so do you think you'd be able to update a similar looking Firefox theme for me?

[GabrielRodino]

I never did anything for firefox. The actual firefox?
I'll see if I can do it.

It's meant for Firefox 43, but I've modified it to install on up to Firefox 56.x. At first glance appears to be fine, but various parts of it are very broken on Firefox 56/Waterfox Classic

I'd like it to be ported to work on Firefox 56/Waterfox Classic (Firefox 52/Basilisk/Serpent support as well would be great, but not required)

There's a version for Firefox 56, but it was redesigned, and looks big and ugly

I've tried modifying the 56.1 version of the theme, but I was unable to get too far because CSS is confusing to me

Here's my attempt at it, which is more broken than 43

Not much of the 56.1 CSS was modified, so you might be able to use it as a reference for updating it to work on Firefox 56

Good news! Zoom meetings from 5.0.5 onwards up to 5.4.2 work with the extended kernel in my observation. I've not tested it with unmodified Vista though (I'm saying this because there was a tutorial to run the latest version on XP and Vista with the TLS 1.1 and 1.2 update, which I don't think actually works). The last version available for download for Vista and XP on their official site is 5.0.5. 

EDIT: Unfortunately, version 5.4.3 onwards does not work with extended kernel. It asks for some missing function (I was not able to remember lol) in KERNEL32.DLL.

5.0.5 is the current version, and it continues to work on vanilla Vista and XP.

I downloaded the Zoom installer and installed it on my secondary Windows 7 laptop and saw that on the start screen, the version no. 5.4.2 is displayed. So, I meant that versions later than 5.0.5 also work on Vista if the extended kernel is installed. I should have made my statement clearer.
