So If anybody want, here is updated silent SFX installer. Contains all 24 languages in which were XP released + Adblock. Mypal is installed to %ProgramFiles%\Mypal + Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts are created. For future updating, just open EXE with WinRAR and update all files from newer Mypal release. This installer is must have for my XP2ESD project where will be included. Now I need to find out how to enable language pack to switch language, seems like nothing happends after click on "Enable" https://www.mediafire.com/file/opvx7nwirymkofz/Mypal-all.exe/file Thanks for your information! I thought you needed it for private use. Enabling an installed language was no problem for me in Mypal 68.12.4b. But don't forget Mypal 68 is still under development, maybe a reason you have got problems, especially in preconfiguring such an archive. For example, Internationalization & Localization has not been implemented yet.

AstroSkipper Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 (edited) @George King, maybe, this may help you to distribute your archive with language files: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/deploying-firefox-language-packs In this article, altough targeting an enterprise environment, a directory called distribution and a policy called RequestedLocales is mentioned. Maybe, it helps. Cheers, AstroSkipper Edited July 13, 2022 by AstroSkipper addition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, it helps. Cheers, AstroSkipper Yes, I did it using similar way. I found where is "problem" in my repack. After first launch you need to click on each yellow triangle and enable that plugin. After that can be language pack changed without issues But if you don't do that, there are no yellow triangles on second start and you need to remove that plugin and add it again manually from %ProgramFiles%\Mypal\chrome\extensions, then enable it and change language and restart Mypal. Now you have localized Mypal I will probably split LPs to extra installer with detection of default system language and install only needed LP. Plus I have scanned registry to make it as default browser too Will see this night about these improvements. 1 hour ago, XPerceniol said: Hi ,George .. I'm now using your version its excellent!

XPerceniol Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Quick question: Even running it with no remote, do others have this show up in the registry?

Mypal 68 is not a portable browser. It creates a profile folder outside the main program directory and registry keys, too. Maybe, Feodor's real name is Theodor! I'll check for Mypal's registry keys, too, when I start my desktop computer the next time. But, don't worry, keep cool! Feodor2 is a good guy.

These entries don't seem to contain any kind of telemetry. Here are my entries: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Theodor2] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Theodor2\Mypal] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Theodor2\Mypal\Launcher] "c:\\Portable\\Mypal\\mypal.exe|Image"=dword:62a1c659 "c:\\Portable\\Mypal\\mypal.exe|Telemetry"=dword:00000000 "C:\\Portable\\Mypal\\mypal.exe|Browser"=hex(b):00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 Other registry keys, belonging to Mypal 68, I couldn't find after searching in my registry editor. @XPerceniol, you can see I do have an entry belonging to the telemetry with a value of 0. This means the telemetry has been disabled. In your case, this registry entry does not even exist. Therefore, all is good, nothing to worry about. Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: And, from now on, one would probably have to set the Boolean truth value of the following equation to true: Theodor2 = Feodor2 Edited July 14, 2022 by AstroSkipper Update of content 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPerceniol Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Thank you ... I wonder why for your: "C:\\Portable\\Mypal\\mypal.exe|Browser"=hex(b):00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 ... you got zeros, wheres, for my: "C:\\Program Files\\Mypal\\mypal.exe|Browser"=hex(b):90,ec,26,3a,b7,15,00,00 "C:\\Program Files\\Mypal\\mypal\\mypal.exe|Browser"=hex(b):af,f6,3d,c3,30,17,\ 00,00 I did not get zeros and wonder what those values mean. Obviously, I could just zero them out seems like a good idea. Edited July 14, 2022 by XPerceniol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstroSkipper Posted July 14, 2022 Author Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) @XPerceniol, did you try to make Mypal 68 as your standard browser? Or maybe, it depends on the location of Mypal folder. They are obviously different. I used the folder Portable, created by me, and you the standard program folder. And one other question. Why do you have a subfolder mypal in the Mypal main folder?

XPerceniol Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Oh yes, that (2nd one) was after I ran that installer that was provided a page before from @George King ... I decided I didn't really need to extensions he was providing so I went back to just the usual from the official Zip and put the software in program files that I create. I would rather just keep is as basic as possible and still it struggles, sadly to have to say on my 2GB of memory.

My Windows XP computer is equipped with only 1.5GB of RAM. And it's just SD-RAM. But in single-process mode, and using the cusom button memoryMinimizationButton and the tool Firemin, it's fine, so far.
