Multifunctional widget for screenshotting, monitoring CPU and RAM usage, and cleaning RAM

Do you know you can attach images directly to the posts and then place and inline insert ? ;) Yes, but I kept getting a nondescript "HTTP error" trying to upload the image, and I'm not sure how to begin diagnosing that. It's just a basic "RamMap requires Windows Vista or higher"...

Multifunctional widget for screenshotting, monitoring CPU and RAM usage, and cleaning RAM

Anyway, I remember about SysInternals RAMMap: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/ff700229 This latest version requires Vista or better but maybe older versions can run on XP, I don't remember. I join two older versions to this post so you can check. https://board.eclipse.cx/viewtopic....

Hmm, you might be right. I don't do these tweaks for most test installs, but why would it be inconsistent in the stuff I do tweak?

Multifunctional widget for screenshotting, monitoring CPU and RAM usage, and cleaning RAM

I'm using All CPU Meter gadget on my Windows 7 VM I have gadgets disabled because they're a security risk. I'm also running 8.1 currently. I know it can be hacked onto 8/10, but not XP. So not an option. I would rather not have a gadget or widget framework running and just have a universal thing I ...

Firewall program for manually allowing or blocking program network access

In the past I've used Kerio Firewall on XP, the best firewall I've ever had. Nowadays I'm afraid it will be quite hard to find something that is still running on XP :? I currently use Comodo Firewall 8.4.0.5165. I was going to upgrade to 12.0.0.6818 (last to work on XP), however after using it in a...

LibreWolf for Windows 7 & 8

The future idea for r3dfox is to remove telemetry while still having similar privacy settings to stock Firefox as to not break website compatibility. I guess they would be kinda different, but only different as in one has a good user js config stock and the other is default.

I guess I could ask him to make a 124.0.3 based Librewolf release, or I could just add the Librewolf patches to r3dfox to invalidate the need for it.

That's the behavior in 115 ESR, the right click context menu is white, styled after the native Windows one. The menus in settings have the correct black background in 115 ESR.

I looked at my 2020 Windows 7 ISO, and it appears to have microcode from 7 SP1. Unless late 2010 microcode has some sort of performance decrease, it shouldn't be that.
