How can I open/run an ASX playlist?

Unread post by TTwrs1 » 2016-03-15, 18:42

Is there any way to open and run anything on this page?

I'm running Portable 26.1.1.x86 on Win7x64.

Check under Add-ons>Plugins if Windows Media Player plug-in is installed and activated.

I would think this is your problem:

http://www.palemoon.org/palemoon-portable.shtml

Note: portables are not meant to have file/URL associations with the desktop.
If you require desktop integration of any kind (including pinned taskbar entries, launching a mail application from mailto: links, remembering default download locations, etc.), it is recommended that you do not use Pale Moon Portable, but the normal desktop version instead! Pale Moon portable has been specifically designed to take with you on removable media with high wear and slow access, and its default settings reflect this. Using it on a stationary computer has a number of drawbacks and is not recommended.
