Hi Everyone,
I downloaded the Pale Moon Source code from https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProd ... e-Moon.git
I build and created the setup file.
After installation when I am trying to open pale moon. It gives me following error.
---------------------------
Pale Moon
---------------------------
Couldn't load XPCOM.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
Please let me know how could I resolve this. I uninstalled and re-installed several time but not getting success.
Thanks

Re: Couldn't load XPCOM while click on Pale Moon Icon
Are you using security software.?..
Usually a problem with the program files..
try a complete uninstall and then reinstall again and see if that helps.
Could also be an issue with priveliges.Run as administrator perhaps...assuming you are on windows.?
Also try running in safe mode to see if this helps.

Did you make sure to install the necessary SDKs as well as set the correct paths for the redist libraries?
If it can't find the correct DLLs to include, then your resulting browser will not run unless they were system-installed already (UCRT and VC++ runtimes)

Thanks for reply..
I got the problem and solved it.
In my PC OLDRR version of Firefox 52.9.0(32 bit) ESR was installed.
So binaries were getting corrupted. I un-installed it then setup worked fine.
But learning day by day.

Thanks for supporting. Actually I am doing open source work first time. I am C# coder, so I don't know to much about browser code.Now struggling with other silly problem. I want to add ADD-ONS PDF view reader at the time of building setup but not getting any point from where I will do.
If you can suggest that would be great help.

That's really strange, because Pale Moon really doesn't care if Firefox is installed or not.mksharma15 wrote: ↑2022-07-07, 19:35In my PC OLDRR version of Firefox 52.9.0(32 bit) ESR was installed.

Anyway, glad you solved it.
