PM32bits WinXP32bits and Gmail

Unread post by dapgo » 2018-01-25, 11:29

In an old computer I have problems with PM and Gmail, i had it with very old PM but also wtith more recent ones.
Operating System gives an error on a windows popup about a container (i don't have here the screenshot) for/of Google.
The problem seems to be related to Google talk/hangouts or whatever it is called now.

And I hope to keep this computer with XP working as good as it is doing now for many years :mrgreen:

I can confirm that gmail works fine on winxp, but hangouts i never tried. You are to check you user agent settings for google, which is much sensitive of that thing

Code: Select all

general.useragent.override.google.com;Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:52.9) Gecko/20100101 Goanna/3.4 Firefox/52.9 PaleMoon/27.7.1

Which version of Palemoon are you using?
So, I understand that your gmail pages doesn't display the hangouts bar at the bottom left corner.
Does it?

In fact my error maybe is not related to PM because it is not produced by the PM executable file but by a plugin container executable, supposedly from Google. But curiously IE or Chrome doesn't fail...

But the I don't remember if years ago i had to install something to support Google hangouts...

Checked with 26.5 atom portable seems all fine, notices that hangout your mentioned chat also seems fine.
