I don't know what "soon" means as far as the MSFN closure (or if it's even 100% as of this point). Maybe users need to start posting links to other forums where we can continue into the future as folks of (mostly) common interests? 30 minutes ago, IXOYE said: the Dropbox page no longer works on Newmoon and Serpent 52 I haven't dug too deep into this. I personally feel that New Moon and Serpent are "dying" (I say this as a supporting fan with continued hopes toward the contrary). It's not like Dropbox is some never-heard-of web site - I use it for "business" and reserve my Google Drive for "personal". Dropbox doesn't require users to be "members" to download, you can download without a username/password. The notion that Dropbox doesn't work in New Moon and Serpent only reinforces my own belief that they are "dying" (if not already on life support).

Honestly, I don't think there are many good options from what I see. Just throwing this out there ... to cut back on cost(s), would it be easy (or woth it) to switch over to lower or free forum software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some random InvalidStateError errors in the console though. What user agent are you using? I use native one, so doesn't contain "Firefox". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the latest version of Newmon 28 and Serpent 52/55 with a new profile with no add-on, with the "user agent mode", native, gecko, firefox", and the page is always blank on Dropbox. Strangely, that works on "iceape-upx" without problem. Edited March 8, 2022 by IXOYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 @NotHereToPlayGames I mentioned this on another thread, but just thought I'd ask here. I'm using your version of 360Chrome 13.5, and I've now noticed that the mute icon at the bottom right in the status bar does not work. The icon changes to mute, but the sound is not muted. Not a big deal as the mute buttons on the individual tabs still work fine, but I just wondered if this was a known issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 Noted, might be a few weeks before I can did into it and see if I can find the culprit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found 58 entries. Nifty utility BTW. On 3/8/2022 at 9:36 PM, NotHereToPlayGames said: If you find anything other than MUI and compatibility keys, then you should delete all of them and run my build as-is and see if everything works now. Done.... and it's fixed! Thanks for your help. Not sure what went wrong. The only thing I can think of, is that I ran it the first time with administrator privileges, but ran with guest privileges subsequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 @NotHereToPlayGames Hi again! Do you remember when I started using your 360Chrome 13.5 I queried that it seemed to be searching for something when the first tab was opened when the program started? I've just checked on this again, and found this when the program is first run and there is a progress animation (which never ends) in the first tab. The domain ws-in-f188.1e100.net appears to be a Google domain. Any idea why the program should be trying (presumably unsuccessfully) to contact it when it runs, and should I block it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 Hmm, interesting. I'll see if I can replicate (I've never personally trusted anything higher than v13 build 2206, to be honest). Do you still see this first-tab connection if all extensions are disabled?

Dave-H Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I'm certain it was doing it before I installed any extensions. It certainly still does it if all the extensions are disabled. I did wonder if it was some sort of automatic program update check. There is a manual update check button on the "About" window, which doesn't find any updates.

obstinateXP Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Is 13.5 compatible with themes available at the Chrome Web Store? I tried to add a Win 98/2000 style theme to match my usual XP 'classic mode' and nothing happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted March 14, 2022 Author Share Posted March 14, 2022 None of 360Chrome (not the official Chinese, not the Russian Repack, not my rebuild, not Humming Owl's rebuils) is compatible with Chrome Web Store themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't exist in "regular", there's no way for it to exist in "ungoogled". Edited March 14, 2022 by NotHereToPlayGames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Mine is the regular version. Do you think it might be simply an automatic check for program updates? It stops as soon as you actually load a web page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
