Does anyone have Win Server 2019?
Jan Krohn replied to Jan Krohn's topic in Microsoft Windows Server Family
Thanks! I already saw these keys, and have my suspicions about them. Would you mind trying to enter your key into the MS download interface, and if it works fine send a link to the eBay offer? -

Jan Krohn replied to jože's topic in Microsoft Windows 7
No worries. Since you forgot to give download permission, no harm was done. -

And please don't share links to copyrighted software in the forum. This can cause great trouble for us. -
windows 7 sp1 pro and win 7 sp1 ultimate slovenian
Jan Krohn replied to jože's topic in Microsoft Windows 7
Don't worry. That's what the forum is for. You can load the iso image from untrusted sources into the iso downloader (orange icon "iso tools"). If it is unmodified, it will be recognized as such through the hash. Should these images be modified, I think the Dell image might still work. It doesn't need a language pack by the way, as it is already multilingual. After installation, go to "Anytime Upgrade", and enter your Ultimate key. Or you load the Dell image into the iso tools, and remove the file ei.cgf. I've never tried this process with the Dell image though. -

Jan Krohn replied to jože's topic in Microsoft Windows 7
The easiest solution would be to download a DELL version. It works on non Dell machines just fine. -

EU copyright reform, article 13, and possible impact on WinCert
Jan Krohn replied to Jan Krohn's topic in Announcements
In short, it will make platform liable for any copyright violations, and requires them to use upload filters to prevent any violations. EU based creators and EU based publishers will be severely crippled. -
-
Keep trying! You can also try the other editions (Home, Ultimate), and when you manage to get one, unlock it for use with a Pro product key with the ISO tools (orange button). I know the situation is currently less than ideal, but will hopefully improve a bit soon.
-
The situation will improve soon. I'm awaiting several more Win 7 keys from eBay, which will be added some time next week. You can also download a different Win 7 edition in Ukrainian, and then unlock it for Ultimate with the ISO Tools (orange icon).

EU copyright reform, article 13, and possible impact on WinCert
Jan Krohn replied to Jan Krohn's topic in Announcements
I'm not really a friend of these exit strategies. We rather need new structures that support European unity instead of European uniformity, a future oriented EU for the young generation, and by the young generation. -
EU copyright reform, article 13, and possible impact on WinCert
Jan Krohn replied to Jan Krohn's topic in Announcements
Yes, I made most of the other videos with my laptop camera. I'm still figuring out the best way to do it. Maybe I should invest in a professional microphone. -
EU copyright reform, article 13, and possible impact on WinCert
Jan Krohn replied to Jan Krohn's topic in Announcements
It's 99% certain. In theory, the council has the power to stop it, but that includes people like Merkel, Macron and Tusk whose parties voted in favour of the reform. The protests do continue. The best strategy now is to kick those idiot MPs out of office at the election in May. Yep, I'm not really happy with my Chinese camera. I'm going to do the next video with my phone camera, maybe the quality will be better. -

Not really. The president even refused to receive the petition with the signatures. -

Actually, I did expect that. Here's the overview on how the individual MEPs voted: https://juliareda.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/copyrightvote.pdf This document will be important for the parliamentary elections. -
Good idea, already done. The FAQ section is quite long. Adding the whole text might keep even more people from reading and understanding the message.

I wonder if they will keep both versions of Edge in Windows, and mothball UWP Edge like they've done with MSIE.
-
Correct. Only the languages in the dropdown with green highlighting are currently available. Best workaround is to download Win 7 Home Basic, which is almost always available in English, and then unlock the other editions with the ISO Tools (orange icon).
-
It picks the default from your system language, but since I didn't want to incorporate all the various forms of English, I restricted the application to use en-US (and redirect similar variations like en-PH to it) and en-GB (and redirect similar variations like en-NZ to that). There are a lot more users who speak Korean, Chinese, Russian, Turkish and Portuguese than those who speak English. For some products, I have only one key to generate the downloads. If I use that key to always generate an English download, most users would never have the chance to get the download they're waiting for in the language they need. Therefore, this is not really a good idea. I'm glad it worked. The removal of the cookie notification was the culprit, as Microsoft delivers it only to some users through the API. It was not a good idea to just assume that it's always there, and to try to remove it without error handling. What a beginner mistake.

It's your local connection issue. Something is blocking the application's access to microsoft.com. You can go through the steps from the FAQ one by one until the issue is solved. A: This is your local connection issue, and can have a number of root causes: You have modified your HOSTS file. Please remove the following two lines. 0.0.0.0 aa.online-metrix.net 0.0.0.0 c.bing.com You have installed software that prevents scripts from modifying secure websites, such as certain adblockers, firewalls or similar security related software. You have disabled TLS 1.2 in your internet settings. You can enable it again in the control panel in the Internet Options category. In rare cases, starting the tool as administrator can resolve the issue. In rare cases, installing the latest Windows updates, or updating Internet Explorer or the .NET framework to the latest version can resolve the issue.

Here's some info from the FAQ: Q: I'm experiencing one of the following symptoms: After selecting a software version, everything grays out and freezes. I'm receiving the popup message "ERROR. Please check your internet connection." I'm receiving an error message in the status bar. A: This is your local connection issue, and can have a number of root causes: You have modified your HOSTS file. Please remove the following two lines. 0.0.0.0 aa.online-metrix.net 0.0.0.0 c.bing.com You have installed software that prevents scripts from modifying secure websites, such as certain adblockers, firewalls or similar security related software. You have disabled TLS 1.2 in your internet settings. You can enable it again in the control panel in the Internet Options category. In rare cases, starting the tool as administrator can resolve the issue. In rare cases, installing the latest Windows updates, or updating Internet Explorer or the .NET framework to the latest version can resolve the issue. Besides this information, upgrading to MSIE 11 also frequently solves the issue (I need to add that to the FAQ...)

That looks like a challenging project. I'll put it on my research list for later this year, but can't promise anything. The real problem is SHA-1 vs. SHA-256. Calculating the SHA-1 is already so sluggish for large files (thanks MS for this inefficiency in the .NET framework). Calculating both SHA-1 and SHA-256 would take really too long.
