I have been following this browser for several years, and i find it a decent option, especially for us still running Windows 7. I was curious about its history so one day i found that, years ago, the browser used to be compatible with Windows XP and Vista (source):
3. Compatible with Vista
Because almost all of the root certificates of Vista have expired, browsing SSL website will almost prompt invalid certificate error, so you need to install the necessary root certificate of catsxp to the trusted root certificate authority first
4. Support WinXP schedule
Finally, I can run out of the interface under WinXP! CPU utilization rate will be 100% (multithreading competition) try to find out the cause!
On October 29, 2020, I think twice and decide to give up supporting WinXP!
Looking at the history section, i found that these two are most likely the last versions ever made for the older systems, with M85 for Windows Vista being available with a special download link at the old home page (source):
v0.7.7 [2020-10-28 11:29:46]
1.[*]Kernel upgrade:86.0.4240.176(m86内核暂不支持vista,原因在排查中)
v0.6.3 [2020-09-09 11:00:35]
1.[*]Kernel upgrade:85.0.4183.109
However, i have not been able to find download links for any Catsxp version older than 2023. I understand that these versions are very old, which are obsolete, discouraged and unsupported, but i would still want to find a copy for historic reasons, to see how this web browser evolved.
Would it be possible if you or someone provided a way to obtain again these historic versions?
Currently, all versions from 2022 and older are lost from the internet, i would be very glad if you shared some of them.
Having those two versions or older ones is just enough for me, it doesn't have to be complete.
Thank you in advance,
