Newwst update shut down pale moon

Unread post by faithbuilders » 2022-11-30, 14:39

I don't know if anyone else experienced this issue. But after the newest update I could not open PM. It would give an error, that caused PM to close back down every time I tried to open it. I had to use Opera to do I full download from the site and install (I was ready to download a older version) But downloading from the PM site seemed to work. So that is good.

32-bit Pale Moon has been updated to 31.4.1.1 today to address these crashes on some hardware and Windows 7.

I was reading that PM update 34.4.1.1 is used to fix browser crashes on 32 bit OS, but I'm still getting random browser crashes on my second system which were never been before v34.4. Although it's not Windows 7, it's Windows 8.1 (32 bit).

Okay, so it sounds like you need to update that Windows 8.1 machine to PM 34.4.1.1 (or newer). It sounds like you're on 34.4.0?

Last time I had an issue like this years ago I solved it by deleting the moonchild folder at C: username \AppData\Local\Moonchild Productions
The folder gets rebuilt.

DO NOT DELETE THE SAME NAMED FOLDER IN \AppData\Roaming\Moonchild Productions

Off-topic:
I may be wrong on this since I'm using two linux distributions for linux Pale Moon, but I do not believe there is a 34.4.1 version for 64 bit Pale Moon whether someone is using linux or windows Pale Moon.

As far as I can tell, the versions for 64 bit Pale Moon (now) whether for linux or windows Pale Moon is 31.4.1 and for those using 32 bit windows Pale Moon for 32 bit Windows 7, it is (31.4.1.1).

But if I'm correct, those of you in this topic thread and who are using version 34 for Pale Moon, where did you get version 34 from? In other words, could you please put that link up since I cannot find the link and I would like to see it.

I sure wish I could edit my post above with the erroneous version numbering. :cry:
