I am finding more and more sites that KM is not compatible with I'm using Edge, now, but waiting (hoping) that a new and improved version of KM will come out.

Thank-you, Siria, for all those suggestions. I looked at my config file, and I changed from false to true the following line: media.mediasource.webm.enabled That seems to have done the trick (youtube videos that previously did not play are now playing). The user agent is what it is by default. I read in this forum that there's an extension I can add that gives me custom user agent c

Greetings, Up until a few days ago, I've been able to watch all Youtube videos, but now for many recently created videos I get this error message: "Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available". It gives a link to a FAQ about HTML5 video, which when I go to it, it seems to assess my browser in real-time and has determined that my K-meleon brow

Hi, years ago I somehow removed the "sessions" feature in K-Meleon. It was useful for whenever the browser crashed, that the next time I started it there would be my tabs I had open the moment it had crashed. But, now I can't figure out how to bring that feature back. Any ideas? Thank-you for the help!

Hi, thank-you for your suggestions. I did indeed find a setting in window diversion, by setting "open urls passed from external applications" to "In a new window". This solved issue #2! For issue #1, I tried the suggestion of setting layers.acceleration.disabled to "true", and so far, so good. The partial-loading problem is sporadic, so I need to keep testing.

Hi, I run Windows 10 and am a long-time user of K-Meleon. I upgraded my KM version to 76 RC a couple of months ago, and here are two "bugs" I have found, but haven't seen any mention of them yet in this thread: 1) When I click on a link on a page, it doesn't always cleanly load the new page. It just shows some pixels from new page, so the end result is a mixture of origin

Hi, I'm using KM 74 Release on XP SP3 machine, and in previous versions when I use search button for something typed in URL bar, it would display it in the same tab, but now, even with the box checked "in the current tab", it opens a new tab. The only exception to this is if the current tab is about:blank (blank page), then it uses the current tab. I couldn't find anywhere

Thank-you for your quick response on this. Yes, you're right I forgot to move the version 1.6 bookmarks.dll file into kplugins folder. Once I did that then bookmarks function properly (URL is saved along with title of page). I will note that when I completely uninstall K-Meleon from my machine, including preferences/profile, then re-install this newest version 74 release, then I experie

Greetings, I had been using version 74 beta 3, and just now decided to download this version, as it seems to be an official release. With the beta 3 I was having a problem with bookmarks, and with Guenter's help I fixed it temporarily. Please see my post at: http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?8,127127,127713#msg-127713 Anyway, I'm now seeing this same problem where when I

Greetings, I'm currently using K-Meleon version 74 beta 3 on an XP SP2 machine, and I'd like to use a password manager. At the K-Meleon Extensions Central, it says I must modify chrome.manifest file, so I did that, and it also says that the K-Meleon Extensions Manager doesn't work on version 74. So, not being an expert on these things, I was just wondering how one installs e

Greetings, I'm interested in using a password manager, and was wondering if anyone has been successful in getting one to work with K-Meleon? Please let me know the steps. I downloaded Dashlane, but its Firefox extension didn't automatically get incorporated into K-Meleon. I'm of course willing to try some other password manager program, if someone has been successful. Thanks

Okay, I just did what you said, by downloading the 1.6 Beta2 7-zip package (because I had previously uninstalled this version), copied over bookmarks.dll into the folder kplugins, and the msv*80.dll files to the main k-meleon directory. Then, I started K-Meleon and tried to save a bookmark, and it totally worked! So thank-you, Guenter, I definitely wouldn't have figured out any of this w

Okay, thank-you, I just replaced my executable with update 2. I spoke a little too soon, as there is still a little bookmark bug I'm experiencing. While the bookmarks.html file is loading fine now, and existing bookmarks from this original file function fine, unfortunately a problem occurs when I try to create a new bookmark. It saves the name of the link, but not the URL associated wit

Thanks JohnHell and Guenter for your suggestions. I tried the trick suggested by Guenter (place my bookmarks.html file in the default location, then change the location in the preferences dialog box, then set it to default), and that did the trick! It just means that my bookmarks file will be in the default location, but I'm okay with that until a new fixed version of K-Meleon comes out.

Hi, I had been using K-Meleon 1.6, but it fails to load many web pages properly, so I downloaded version 74. I have Windows XP, and I believe SP 2. Note, I'm just a user of the program, not a developer. Anyway, I'd like to re-use my old Mozilla style bookmarks, which I had been keeping in My Documents. But, when I try to direct K-Meleon to use those bookmarks, it says in the prefe

Also, to get the error message, just go to profiles.google.com I'm logged into my profile, and it says it doesn't support the browser, and then I clicked on "Learn More".

Thanks for looking into this. I put the following string in custom user agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.18) Gecko K-Meleon/1.6.0 not Firefox/3.5 Do you agree with this? Maybe it can be simplified? I just cut/pasted it from a message in this forum.

Thank-you, I tried out the Search Bar Plus, but while it does provide a separate search bar, it doesn't have the nice feature where it gives suggestions as you beginning to type. It's more of a nicety, not a necessity. I can just go to Google's main page and it works there.

I know that one can put in either URL or a search in the same bar, but it would nice to have the option of a separate search bar. Not only that, but have a Javascript that anticipates what you're typing and offers suggestions (to save on having to type in the whole thing before hitting search button). They have this in Firefox.

I noticed that KM doesn't work properly with Google profiles. Google even provides an error message saying so, suggesting that I get a different browser. It also fails with Google Picasa, probably for the same reasons. That would be helpful to fix this, so that I can just use one browser (KM).

When I used Firefox, I would have multiple windows open, each with possibly multiple tabs. The fastest way to open a new window, especially when I was doing something else (non browser-related), was to start Firefox window by way of the Start Menu of Windows. This was faster than going to one of my already open Firefox windows then going File -> Open New Window. I can do the same thing wi

Hi, I'm switching from Firefox, where I've organized my bookmarks into folders. In FF there's an option to "open all tabs at once" in that bookmark folder. Can this be done in K-Meleon? Thanks!
