Last PM version for Vista

Unread post by PMRick » 2023-01-01, 17:31

What is the last Pale Moon build that I can run 32bit Vista. I have an old PC that I occasionally use. I currently have PM on it but there are issues with many websites. PM runs great on my Win 10 PC with lots of old Firefox and legacy PM extensions.
Thanks, Rick
btw, Seasons greetings

According to the archived release notes, it looks like the last PM build that supported Vista was 27.9.4.

And just FYI you're still going to have issues with many websites even with 27.9.4 because it dates back to July of 2018. There have been a LOT of improvements in Pale Moon over the last four and a half years.

There are also unofficial re-brands around which support still XP - You could use one of them. Just Google for

roytam1 browser builds part 4

and look for one of the download links which supports XP - they feature basically all improvements from Pale Moon made in the last few years.

Thanks again Sajadi,
I have been using the Basilisk Serpent from Roytam1 on my Vista PC, which works great and and most of my 'necessary' extensions from Firefox 52.9 ESR work and/or Pale Moon work. The only inconvenience I encountered was there are very few appearance themes available, but I finally found some I liked and displayed correctly on the WayBack Machine archives.
